“You are assuming that all 47 million are sick. So if you are right, seems that your personal biggest worry should be "Who's going to bury them? But that would make you feel better, huh? As long as you've got yours, right?”

“Yep! As one of the unemployed, who can't afford to be sick, I was fighting mad after watching it. What really ticks me off is when Goverment officials try to convince Americans that having Goverment assist them in any way is somehow wrongt. As I recall the constitution stated that the goverment is "For the people and by the people"! How silly to believe that it is somehow counter-productive to have us benefit from a Goverment that we support through our tax dollars. We should be revolting in the street over the lack of health care and higher educational opportunities, both of which in my opinion, should be absolutely free! And to those who state that the primary role of the Goverment is to protect us from attack, then not one penny more in tax dollars should be collected beyond what they need for that purpose! I for one am really to march for Universal Health care! We should at least get the same health care that our so called elected officials get or better yet, our elected officials should get the same health care that many Americans do not. None!”

“While I have been aware of "Don't ask, don't tell", since Clinton initiated it, for the first time, it really hit me, what it meant when I heard today that this man and a woman were fired for being gay!? Is this not the USA, a democracy? This is shameful and scary! President Obama should immediately repeal this Anti-American law. Is this not 2009! I am just blown away at the archaic thinking that went into creating such a law and really upset to learn that it is actually being enforced! Come on O! You promised that you would be a President for all Americans. Gay people are Americans too you know and they really need you now, not when you get around to it!”

“Dom was hilarious and gave me and my grandmother many happy moments of laughter! Thanks Mr. Deluise! Here's to forever remembering you!”

“The convict went to court with the victim, who was identified as "Justin". I don't know any women named Justin. Do you?”

“This whole thing reminds me of an incident that happened in a downtown Mickeys in Baltimore. My cousin and I had come from a concert and there was a group of thugs from the nearby projects, who robbed two brothers and assaulted them in the store. We were both distraught that no one would help, there were several large males working in the store including a manager. These thugs and were about 13 years old. My cousin and I were both afraid to step in being female. None of the employees said a word. We went outside to find help and saw an officer in a van, however he claimed to be a supervisor and said he would call an officer!!!! We went back into the store just in time to see one of the thugs with a pulled up bus sign post come in to hit the brothers. Just then an old security guard friend of ours, came in. We ran up to him asking him to help. In this booming voice, he said "What's going on in here?" and just like that, the boys ran. We tried to get the two brothers to stick around for the police but they were afraid, so we gave them cab fare home. They should be sued for lack of security!”

“My grandkids just run all over top of me, so I pretend to have a nervous breakdown. Since they love me, they behave themselves and try to console me by being on their best behavior. I swear I was much better with my own kids. Somewhere along the way, I just lost all my good parenting skills.”

“Boom!”

“Hilarious! My first cheerful cry of the morning!”

“How I became a chronic insomniac worrying about Obama's chances of winning the presidency.”

“Way to go Minnesota Kids! The country needs you and loves you!”

“I am so proud of her too! That makes me feel great! People will vote like crazy this election! My son in law is also voting for the first time, for Obama!”

“YES WE CAN!”

“Oh my goodness! Me too and I am an African American Female. I do the same thing. I wish there was a support group, I would definately participate. I have too. I seriously think I need help.”

“I have become a Huffpo addict, suffering from chronic insomnia. I sleep in fits of 2 hours, often getting up to check the headlines here to make sure Obama is still maintaining his lead. At 6:30, I tune into Morning Joe to see how off Mika and Joe are about election news while simultaneously browsing Huffpo for new developments and reassurance. Currently unemployed (recenlty laid off), I then watch all the election news (with the exception of Fox) I can get, while reading the Huffpo articles. I then watch MSNBC Chris Matthews, Keith O and Rachel Maddow repeatedly until the infomercials take over. At about 3 A.M., I start my 2 hour attempts at sleep and my day starts over again. I need this election to seriously be over. I was supposed to be using my unemployment time to start a new business however that would take me away from my election addiction. I am really worried about my health so have recently started taking an abundance of supplements and drink 8 cups of green tea as I am sure this regimen can't be healthy. I worry about how I will get it all back together once O wins. I can't even contemplate that he doesn't. I think seriously I may really crack up!”

“You've got that right. I am from Baltimore and comparing her to Charli is abysmal at best!”

“I so agree with you. You should be angry! Send them a message and vote for Bob Barr, not Mccain!”

“LOL!”

“Yeah, she didn't appear to like the whole Baldwin bit. She didn't smile at all. I think as agreement to come on the show, she had to agree to be skewered. She beared it but didn't grin. Also (OMG I sound like Palin), I betcha Amy did the rap bit instead of Tina only because Palin didn't want her likeness used in the rap. She knew it would not be complimentary, and it wasn't. But she chair dances rather well. I bet she's a secret "Ludacris" fan.”

“2 point boost! Yes! I was rea lly worried! Thanks for that. I am going now to Gallop!”

“Oooh, good catch! I have to go back and watch that again!”

“I agree. I watched it here after it aired.”

“I am not going to be able to watch the election tallies. I don't think my heart would survive it. I am going to vote for O/B and take a sleeping pill and not wake up until the day after. I just can't take much more of this! I feel like if McCain wins, this will truly be the end ...of America as we know it.”

“HA HA HA HA. "brandy sniffer, smoking jacket and dinner mints"! ROFL”

“I thought he looked stiff and nervous. At the introduction, he blinked nervously several times before pointing/waving uncertainly to the audience. He didn't appear comfortable to me.”
