That talk extends all the way through the Deep South. He has the same issues among the white lower and middle class voters there as he had in WV. This is the exact demographic to which all of those poisonous emails were directed and those will continue to be sent by the millions. These people read something once about a Democrat or anyone with liberal leanings (McCain in SC in '00) and they believe it as fact. Never cross checking references or checking the source.
Sen Obama can afford to write off W Va. After all he just found 9 states no one else even knows about.
ani, you woudn't mind documenting for me where Obama claimed there are 59 statest would you? lol
Here are his exact words: "I've now been to 57 states...I have one more to go...they wouldn't let me go to Alaska and Hawaii."
You can see the YouTube video here
He does seem a little confused - it's either 58 or 59

By Zeus, you are right. He did make a mistake. Damn, I am glad to know he is human. Geese, there for a while, I thought he was the Messiah. So, I am voting for a human after all. Thanks Nostalgia, that was pure enlightenment, and I gave you a positive for the research. Good Job. Of course, that mistake just endears me more to him. Damn guy is just like me. Go figure.
LOL maybe you missed his "I misspoke" or "I could have worded that better" excuses. You have to do more reading!
WOW I'm impressed ML2007!!!
"Damn guy is just like me"
A Harvard law school graduate who was editor of the Harvard Law Review too?
That's amazing!
"A Harvard law school graduate who was editor of the Harvard Law Review too?"
And he still made a mistake! Da-n!
Thanks for noticing we do have a lot in common. I am in good company.
Good point, V.O.R. It's like the Muslim thing. Muslims in cahoots with Osama bin Laden attacked the World Trade Center. Most educated and informed people know that this was done by a radical faction of Islam that was based in Afghanistan. The uneducated and uninformed took the opinion that all Muslims were bad and they needed to be re-educated and turned into a Secular government. A good Arab christian nation. They are throwing billions of dollars away everyday and causing death and destruction on the people they try to liberate. They see nothing wrong with this. Yet abortion is bad. Dropping a 5000 pound bomb on a city is good. Sorry I wandered off.
Re: educated people
Isn't that why in a totalitarian takeover the first to go are the teachers, doctors, journalists, lawyers, professors and intellectuals.
