      "We polled a randomly selected sample of African Americans and illegal aliens in an overwhelmingly Democratic state and, big surprise, they tended to support Obama."

          Of course, 90% of NJ is on welfare and food stamps. Democracy ends when people realize they can vote themselves benefits.

            LOL Nj is one of the wealthiest states in the country, with a few of the top 20 wealthiest cities in the nation. They may have changed the look of this site, apparently they were unable to educate anyone in the process...good luck in November...looks like Obama's in...finally we're gonna bring smart back. How many times can McCain lie about Iraq in one week? How many times will he confuse countries borders and names in one month, I now am starting to realize as shocking as it sounds that perhaps, just maybe McCain could be worse than Bush.

            Thanks for your boorish comment! It will likely push the percentage spread even further in Barack Obama's favor. Good job!!

              IT WILL BE A LANDSLIDE FOR OBAMA IN NOVEMBER. THE OLD HYPOCRITE RAT WITH EARLY SIGNS OF ALZEIHMERS WILL BE RETIRED TO A NURSING HOME IN AZ.

                Obama's lies are coming to the surface too. His television ads are lies. He was never on any committee that did anything he said he was a part of.
                When asked by Katie Couric about what he said in the debate in SC about talking to dictators like Ahmadinejad without reservation, after alot of ums, ers, ahs, (he did an ok job of thinking up a lie) where he said, "I also said I wouldn't do it without preparation".
                Listen to a clip of the SC debate again. He said yes he would talk to dicatators and he said it without any ums, ers and ahs.
                He's a lying phony who accomplished NOTHING in office. He was always running for higher office, always too busy to do anything for his present constituency.
                According to the latest poll, Obama is trailing in OH.

                  Also in his commercials he said how he grew up in the midwest and how it formed him, when in reality, he spent his younger years in Hawaii and Indonesia.
                  What's the matter. Barry? The truth isn't as flattering as you'd like it to be?
                  His campaign slogan should be, if you liked Clinton, you'll love Obama.

                    If you don't lie, you cannot be a politician. If you want to be honest, you end up in a place of worship, not a church. I don't consider church a place of worship for obvious reasons, mainly pedophiles in robes waiting for their prey!!!!!!!

                      All of a sudden, I'm starting to see mine. Maybe this new propeller takes a while to recognize us?? Who knows? Keep complaining and maybe you'll get some results. It seems to have worked for me.
