Economic Crisis Changes Electoral Map

New York Times:

The turmoil on Wall Street and the weakening economy are changing the contours of the presidential campaign map, giving new force to Senator Barack Obama's ambitious strategy to make incursions into Republican territory, while leading Senator John McCain to scale back his efforts to capture Democratic states.

MANY BELIEVE the REPUBS have TAKEN TWO ELECTIONS USING Voter Fraud! 2000 FLORIDA and 2004 OHIO!

"HACKERS of VOTE COMPUTERS "should be OUR BIGGEST CONCERN as THEY SIMPLY CHANGE THE FINAL or INTERMITTENT TALLIES! Of Course, voter intimidation is a problem also.

IF EVERY STATE SYSTEM SIMPLY PRINTS OUT THE TALLIES EVERY MINUTE TO DOCUMENT PROGRESS THEN WE CAN TRACK WHERE and WHEN "HACKERS" CHANGED TALLIES!

INSIST ON TALLY PRINTOUTS EVERY ONE MINUTE INTERVAL ALL DURING THE VOTING PROCESS!

AUDITS WILL BE THEN BE MUCH EASIER! REPUBS SHOULD NOT OBJECT AS IT PROTECTS THEM ALSO!

Isn't Sarah Palln just Ann Coulter in drag?

[PT6]

WE CAN SEE ROVE TYPES ARE ATTACKING!

REPUBS ARE IN A CORNER and WILL FIGHT ROVE STYLE!

THEY BETTER SAVE THEIR BASE TO SAVE FACE! Remember 1964!

AMERICANS VOTED ALMOST UNANIMOUSLY IN ELECTORAL VOTES IN 1964! 52 Electoral Votes!
AMERICAN VOTED AGAINST "WAR LOVING ARIZONA REPUBLICAN," GOLDWATER!

DO IT AGAIN IN 2008! NO MORE WARS!

VOTE FOR SANITY IN CHARGE OF THE PRESIDENTIAL BUTTONS! VOTE OBAMA!

PEACE AT ANY COST IS GUARANTEED WAR!

Here is a great story about Sharia Law spreading through British courts and the duality of legal system there. I wonder how long it will take this country to start appeasing everybody else. ----------­----------­-

Great Post

All the social advances made in the last 200 -300 years are now being thrown away in the most sickening manner. This cannot occur and should be rejected immediately by all British voters.

But , I fear it will not.

For Positive, (Safe) Change and the Good Of America

VOTE: Obama/Biden 2008

These are the realities in some (if not most) muslim countries. No equal rights for women, female circumcisions, cutting hands for stealing, honor killings of women (even if they are r-a-p-e-d).

Don't count on the polls. They are fluctuating back and forth due to the 10% that cannot commit and change their mind regularly.

Okay here is my f e a r du jour:

Johnny has been eerily silent as of late. Either he is losing his shirt at the c r a p s tables or he is preparing a new line of a t t a ck for tuesday. If the latter is true, he is going to come out on tuesday being overly phony towards obama in an effort to make up for the backlash from the last debate where we all saw how r u d e he was. by announcing his strategy to go negative, it forces Obama to go negative first and then JM will not go as negative; thereby allowing him to point the finger at Obama and say , "see, he is the negative one."

Either that or he is going to come out on tuesday with l i e s. Of course, his first statement will be to whine that O did not agree to do the town halls.

New thread on the home page: AP charges palins comments are r a c i a l l y tinged.

BTW: Obama live at 2:00 EDT today. Parts of the speech are floating around. It's a VERY strong speech; a bit different and I have a feeling he is going to be on fire today.

Every comment on that thread goes to the dark place.

Someone is frightened.
