Are you Carol Richards or Mary Richards? Either way, your thoughts are as sugar-coated as Mary Richards would have uttered on "That Girl". I agree with you about Nader's brave and single-focused contributions to ride our government where appropriate. Where we part company, Carol, is your rose-colored assessment of Obama. I fear you have a color-blind spot. What I mean is this; if Obama were just an average white guy you'd worry about his 20 years in a racist church. You'd wonder why he's never crossed partisan lines if he's a true "change agent". You'd wonder why he bought a multi-million $ home in Chicago he wanted but couldn't afford, and so turned to his crook, (and since-convicted) friend Tony Rezko. Most of all, you'd wonder how unbelievable it is that a guy who's a product of the world's most corrupt political city-Chicago, and a protege of Illinois state senate leader, Emil Jones,(ultimate scum-bag)has gotten this far. And the answer my dear Carol, is that your media, the one that told you the war was lost when it wasn't, the one that told you the war was for oil, when clearly it isn't, the media that told you in '06 that your Democrat congress would make a difference (12% approval as of today) would stop the war, lower fuel costs and save the nation

has an agenda. Gasp! yes, it's to get a Dem in office--any Dem. Even if it's a black guy who pretends to be white one minute (Philly speech) and black the next (North Carolina speech) You are sadly, misinformed about this man you so want to be president. Please try to look beyond the MSM and learn more before you vote.

What the heck are you hoping for? Trust me, if it's a high hard one Obama isn't packing. If on the other hand, you're hoping for something more substantial, I'd say that this election cycle doesn't offer much.

Let's see, in Illinois he voted to rip the heads of full-term infants in vitro-and for good measure give 'em another whack in case they didn't complete the job the first time. Now he wants to let the most egregious of society's pigs live and sponge off the American tax payer? No CeliaSF, he's not consistent when it comes to valuing life. I'm guessing if one of his precious little girls were violated his position might change. Kinda like how it changed on public campaign funds and denouncing his pastor. You're right, come to think of it he does believe in change.

Sorry to drop in so late in the game. You guys are duking it out over which female running-mate Obabe should take? Not relevant. Even if he picks the Statue of Liberty herself he won't win. He's a fake. He's a racist, and here in middle America, we gun-clingers won't have it. Convince yourself otherwise but he can't sugar-coat his candidacy with either Hillary or that DUD from Kansas. Your boy Barry has done the double-cross on nearly everything he promised you. He can't keep his word cause he has know idea what he stands for unless Axelrod-less one tells him. Sleep well my precious....

Ok, I know this is a lefty site but gosh-darn Queen B nails OBlah-Blah's weaknesses and you guys just ignore the truth. Face it no matter what -the tide has shifted and your guy didn't have the balls to pick the Hillster. Too bad. Hello Prz McCain. Sorry u loze.

You can spin numbers till your blue in the balls...point is Barack Hussain O'Blah-Blah is not going to win for soooo many reasons. Indian is not even on the map. I love how the left wants to pretend that the rust belt is for McCain--by huge numbers. By the way, in case you hadn't noticed Hillary's gals haven't budged toward O' Blah-Blah since June. He hasn't won a primary since April. Who's zoomin' who??? Gun clingers remember his words...

Sarah Palin will help carry McCain to the WHITE house. Your analysis is so pathetic. She still captures the LOVE and ATTENTION of most Americans. Why? She Out-Obamas Obama in terms of an authentic American story. Barry's story is contrived. He's a RADICAL of the worst kind and your country sees it. They're not racist, they're pragmatists. He's done.
