I find it so hard to comprehend how anyone who isn't technically mentally handicapped

I saw the DU funnies comments over the large crowd Obama had in Oregon. One person gasped "This isn't an election, it's a movement!"

A movement of what? What does he stand for? These idiots don't know, their caught up in the emotion of it all. When McCain wins Pennsylvania early on election night all these breathless college kids will be so disheartened they wont even vote.

“Here’s a guy who could get us right with the world again” is how Al Cross, a veteran political reporter and the head of the University of Kentucky’s Institute for Rural Journalism and Community Issues, characterized the perception among some Democrats. “His entire persona is globalized, and his name lends credibility with people who we need credibility with. What better change agent could there be?”

Shouldn't it be said of people like this guy that, “They just are confused, uninitiated and uncertain about who he is and what his background is.”

Instead of making it seem as if every person that doesn't trust Obama is ignorant , foolish, and uneducated.

I know. He also said he’s afraid of black people.

the reporter offered this observation: “They think you are un-American”

And they are correct. B. Hussein Obama (May peace be upon him) IS un-American.

"...the assertion that he’s a Muslim and the claim that he belongs to a radical black Christian church..."

Ah, what's the difference between Rev Wright and Minister Farrakhan? Not much, indeed Wright notoriously honored Farrakhan. They see the similarity, it's wrong for the rest of us to see the similarity?

Obama was a Muslim under Sharia Muslim law until he was 26. With his conversion, Obama's become an apostate and has committed the worst crime a Muslim can commit. Any Muslim can murder Obama and be celebrated for murdering an apostate. How is this not far from saying Obama is a Muslim?

McCain is not going to be subordinate to the U.N. when it comes to our military. Barry and Hillary would. That’s my vote right there.

VOTE U.S. MILITARY 2008!

though one goes as far as to try to reconcile the apparent conflict by arguing that Chicago’s Trinity United Church of Christ is covertly Muslim, something that would come as a surprise to its parishioners.
The Nation of Islam provided body guards for Jeremiah "GD America!" Wright.

Surprise! Surprise! Surprise!

You do not have to cite Hillary because Michelle Obama says the same thing.

April 25, 2008 Stump Speech in Fort Wayne, IN - Michelle Obama:

“We've lost sight of the fact that we are one another's brothers' and sisters' keepers in this nation. We have to prepare to sacrifice something big for the greater good. In order to do that, you have to feel some faith and trust and inspiration in our leadership. I don't think there's anyone else in this race who's going to be able to unify this country, who's going to be able to change the way politics is done, who's going to bring people together who never thought they had anything common before and who's going to do it in a way that's decent and honest. That man is my husband, Barack Obama.”

E-mail smears are fine when they happen to a conservative...but are dangerous when they happen to a neo-Marxist. Things that make you go hmmmmmm.

Well, he's also black, so it must be some kind of hate crime too!

It would be funny to have the Bush images on the front of a t-shirt and the Obama ones on the back and walk down the street in Austin or Seattle.

If McCain submits to the UN IPCC, what’s the difference?

I doubt that. All elections in Oregon are by mail in ballots. The envelope enclosing the ballots just have to be postmarked by poll closing time on election day. This will insulate Oregon turnout from being depressed by early east coast election returns.

I’ll tell you this. I know a number of middle aged women who are DIE-HARD Dems who won’t vote for Obama. For the most part, it’s because they believe him to be a racist and on some other levels that he’ll sell us out to our enemies.

They’re only “smears” if they aren’t true.

The more people “get to know” him, the less they’ll think of him. The son of radicals!

BO’s the darling of anti-Americans, both within this country, and outside of it. Wonder why this could be?

McCain would be better on defense (I think). His comments about shutting down Gitmo concern me.

I look at...

Opposition to the Bush tax cuts
McCain Lieberman
McCain Kennedy
McCain Feingold
The gang of 14

His record is left of center. He’s better on Islamofascism than Obama, but that’s an obvious threat. He’s no different on enviromarxism and that’s the more dangerous threat because it’s unopposed.

The GOP would rally in opposition to the hare-brained polcies of a President Obama. Only principled conservatives would oppose the hare-brained policies of a President McCain. A President McCain would be marginally better on terrorism (I think), but would fracture the GOP and take our country on a long left U-turn. He scares me more than Obama.

I was raised in a liberal. democrat household and strongly supported Carter in 1976. At the time, I remember thinking that the Democrats owned the Senate, House, and Oval Office. There are no excuses.

I may have been young, but I saw the error of my ways. I joyously voted for Reagan in 1980 and 84. I volunteered and campaigned for an incompetent Beau Boulter (against Lloyd Bentsen) in 88 because of GHW Bush’s voodoo economics rhetoric, which made me justifiably doubtful about GHW Bush. I voted for GHW Bush only because I couldn’t stand Dukakis. Four years later I voted for him only because I couldn’t stand Clinton. Four years later I voted for (duh) Dole only because I couldn’t stand Clinton. Four years later I voted for GW Bush only because I couldn’t stand Gore. Four years later I voted for GW Bush only because I couldn’t stand Kerry.

Today, I can’t stand McCain or Obama or Hillary. I’m tired of voting against people. I’m tired of RINOs. I’m tired of Republicans who are little more than Democrats at a 10% discount.

I can’t support McCain because he’s less despicable than Obama. I’ll vote because the down ballot elections matter, but I don’t know if I can vote at the top of the ballot. If I do, it will be for Bob Barr or a write-in. McCain, Obama, and Hillary are not very different to me and none will get my vote.

I’d almost talked myself into voting for McCain until his Oregon Gorebasm speech. I won’t support a green enviromarxist any more than an out-and-out red marxist. I suspect my views are similar to many conservatives. If McCain wins, it will not be with our support, it will be because he staked out a position left of center, while running against a radical left of left candidate.

McCain will govern to the left and take away any chance for the GOP to rally in opposition to leftist jurist appointments (i.e., more David Souters), tax hikes, Gaia worship, and command and control enviromarxism.

If McCain loses, we’re in for a very bad four years. If he wins, we may be in for a bad quarter century.

I can’t support Obama. I won’t support McCain
