Barack is a star. He's doin' it right and perfect. He's riding the breaking wave towards the shore and he is gonna drench a bunch of dazed republican thugs on the shoreline....

21. this campaign has handled things exactly the opposite of
what i would do. i am so glad he doesn't think like me. he woulda went upside mccain's head long ago. i am so proud of this campaign. they seem to see around the corners while i am still looking straight ahead. good work obama campaign.

33. Here... Here....
I'm jumping up and down watching both debates yelling... he let him off the hook. screaming what I thought he should have said.
But then the post debate polls says 'sit down Roy!! Barack was right'

I think it hurts repubs more that this guy can't be rattled, they can't get under his skin, and they overeact as a result, costing them a few poll points per day.

Don't listen to me Barack, just do your thing...
I will now just sit back and enjoy the ride!

46. That is how I thought at first when I began watching Barack...
and then I started just watching him and watching the pundits tell us what he should do and as they watched for something that they saw in the campaigns from years ago I began to see and really hear what Barack was saying. "we can't keep on doing the same things the same way and getting the same results" and my favorite"Not this time"!

49. It's the exact opposite of what I would do too.
I would have gone for the knockout a long time ago. But then I'm not a political genius...and Barack IS!!!

29. Remember the republicans tried to skewer him?
McCain said he was using the race card from the bottom of the deck? Barack tried to prepare us for this, he knew it was coming.

36. Obama and his campaign staff know how to use the internet, that's how he knew.
They don't wait to go on TV or wait till they hear it from someone. They fight back in real-time! :D

38. Now we know
Now we know where the McCain campaign got their strategy. It seems they are so short of ideas that they even had to plagiarize Obama in order to attack him.

Pathetic.

43. Boy, he just called it all, didn't he?
And they still did everything he said they would- even after he predicted it! I can just imagine some Republican strategist watching this speech and thinking "hey, that's a good idea..."

47. And the great irony is they said he played the race card
for saying this!

They smirked and patted themselves on the back about how smart they were charging him with playing the race card, "we're not going to let him get away with it like he did with Hillary".

It's hard to see how Obama kept his cool under such slander. Obama is smart enough to let events and actions speak for themselves.

48. Today Palin accused Obama of infanticide
Edited on Sat Oct-11-08 08:15 PM by JPZenger
The Repubs were saving their worst for last. After reading reichwing blocks, I knew it was coming, but I expected it to surface a few days before the election. Today, Palin used their worst line of attack.

They are accusing Obama of supporting infantcide - killing newborn babies after they are born. They are twisting a vote he made in the Illinois Senate to make this attack.
