McCain would not have been ideal to be sure. Mr Bush redivivus. I could not vote for him. But Contrary to the popular line, however, Obama we all know has no more, and maybe less, experience than the Sarah Palin, who at least had some tough executive experience as Governor of a real state and she had some principles (prolife) which none contest. But precisely for those reasons she was pilloried by the cynical 'gottcha' media which sought to manipulate her image---just as it did Barack Hussein's---- and in consequence the polls. She's smarter than the media would allow.

But we are kidding ourselves I fear if we do not think the elites who have completely bought $$$ Obama $$$ do not own him. He is an image, an avatar ("change" "intelligence," "historic," is what is that is said of him; not proven experience.

I have become addicted to the Huff. I don't know what I am going to do when this is all over. I'm sure I still read the Huff but in a different way. It has been great to post here. I have never done it before this. One question.. Will there still be trolls around with the election is over or do they climb back under the rock that they came from?

In 2006, Democrats took control over the House, at that time the democrats should have instituted procedures to remove all "Diebold" voting machines from every state in the "Union. " They did not". this huge error could cost them the election today.

The republicans have everything to "Lose", and nothing to gain ,except staying in power and will do anything and everything to accomplish this task, even to once again "Cheat, Steal, Iie their way through the process again.

Obama's message is a positive one...so most of his coverage will be positive. McCain's message is negative so his coverage is about the negative attacks on Obama. You cannot blame the media for McCain's negative message.

True. Also, what does McCain and his ilk expect when he pretty much launched his campaign, at the convention anyway, with incredibly severe criticism of the media? Seems to me, if you want the media to love you, you've got to love the media. When I heard the Republicans saying all that anti-media "liberal bias" stuff, I thought, don't they realize you get more flies with honey than vinegar? If you're running a campaign and want positive media coverage, you don't attack the people with the pens in their hands! Just one more way they seem out of touch....

Republicans make their own statistics to say what ever they wish...
We can see the opinion of Americans when we see the 40,000 to 100,000 people attending Obama's rallies and then there are the 2 to 8 thousands at McCain rallies,,, where he has to bus in 4,000 kids to attend his meetings..
If BS talked then the McSame/Palin supporters would hava a mouth full...
Where is Joe The Plumber , out trying to get his plumbing liscense , money to pay his taxes and now looking for a person to handle his affairs....
No Joe the BS'er is trying to become a movie star with the exposure McCain has given him....
McCain make Joe The ........ a household name and then Joe left McCain standing at the stage ,, and McCain was yelling Hey Joe,, Where is Joe ,,, will I guess I will make everyone Joe...
