Obama expects more scrutiny of McCain

What, more than anything, makes Obama special?

Barack Obama's campaign, his candidacy, is about us, for us, by us. It is time for a presidency that is about us. It is time for a presidency where we are partners and beneficiaries, instead of pawns and victims.

With Barack Obama, we can believe in our future again.

Not much to scrutinize. Obama hasn't done anything is his politcal career. Chicago? Highest crime rate to go along with the highest taxes. Illinois? The state is in shambles, both financially and with corruption. Seeing Obama was Chicago's and Illinois's star pupil, they elected him to the senate, where he has done, nothing. And somehow he constantly talks about the future - when he's done nothing of worth in his past. The man is a total fraud.

This is an exciting time. Barak Obama is about to help Americans see the real John McCain. The SnL(Savings and Loan scandal) John McCain. The warmonger, no economic strategy, angerholic John McCain. The flip flopper, I will be whoever I have to be John McCain.
Everyone deserves to make choices based upon honesty. Grandpa has a lot to answer for.

Go Obama!

With Obama we'd be getting the second term of Jimmy Carter or the first term of Mike Dukakis. I guess we could all have malise then.

If Obama doesn't choose Hillary for a running mate, we will not win.

I am so glad Obama is talking about saving Social Security. You know, I think this is the most troubling issue facing old and young alike. How about taking the money we are using to kill Iraqi children to do something for human beings at home. Or are we going to dwindle to a second or third world country, with most of us living in tents and cardboard boxes?

McCain has been around for so long and it is BO who needs a scrutiny. He has been voting from the far left of liberals, gun control, anti-abortion, Rev. Wrights 20 years of anti-American radical preaching.

The media pundits have been giving him a free ride. We need to know about his past and him personally.

Can you hear McCain coming down the hall, "flip flop, flip flop, flip flop, flip flop.....Boom, I fell down and I can't get up".

For the older generation (who vote every election) the future is now. We don't have time to wait for dreams to come true. Hillary won't make us wait.

Privatization will cost nothing and take the burden off the gov't. Obama wants to give to the seniors, so does McCain. Obama wants to put retirement out of reach of the middle class and overtax the upper class, those who worked harder to get ahead. The harder you work, the more you deserve. You don't work (able bodies), you don't deserve.

Todd Spivak of the Houston Press has documented how Obama accomplished next to nothing in his first six years in the Illinois legislature.------

Then Emil Jones Jr. an African American with thirty years in the legislature made Obama a sponsor of 26 bills that became law. This is how BO portrays himself as a highly successful legislator.------

This is just like giving him the ball at 1 yard line.-----

Has Obama repaid Jones? Yes. He has provided tens of millions in earmarks for Jones' district. As to such actions, Jones famously said: "Some call it pork; I call it steak."------

Michelle Obama's salary at University of Chicago Hospitals when her husband won the US Senate seat was $121,000. Within weeks of his swearing in, her salary went to over $320,000. The following year Obama did an earmark request for $1 million for her employer.------

BO has used bombastic high-flown language to fool millions of people by poetic promises of change. In reality, he has taken considerable money and support from all sorts of corporate and other special interests. I can still recall his bitterness remark of working class in meeting with billionaires in San Francisco.

PUH LEEEZE!!!

MSNBC, you may as well give up the pretense! Everyone knows you're the Obama News Network, so call yourselves by your real name (ONN)

From day one, you, Huffington, Time, et al have already proclaimed Obama the Messiah (more like the anti christ).

This man is the epitome of old school politics. He IS clever, I have to admit. He calls his oponent a "hypocrite", especially after he makes a hypocritical statement. He is smooth as a snake!

The GOP should worry about the Obama Campaign's "Vote for Change" and the "Obama Organizing Fellows" programs.

The electoral map is going to change drastically this Nov.

McCain = Third Bush Term

Obama 2008!

Obama shows much sensitivity to the middle class and the poor. These two groups have been virtually ignored during the Bush regime. I am looking forward to Tuesday when he is expected to get to the finish line with the most pledged delegates overall. I gather the party wants this primary to go the distance and perhaps use these primaries to test their strengths for the general election. My concern is Hillary continues to incur net debts in each campaign she runs and at the end of the day; who is going to pick up these tabs? Will she dig deeper in the Clinton coffers to cover her expenses or will she look to Obama for a bail out. If her supporters continue to unjustifiably lambaste Obama on the Internet he should think twice about rendering her any financial assistance. Some are so rude and bellicose sprouting bile, a whole bag of lies and sporting empty pockets! If you are coming to the Obama campaign with hat in hand you should show respect.

Keating Five. "No" to a Martin Luther King holiday (until he needed blacks to vote for him). Admitted "dummy" on economics--macro or micro. Admitted "C-" student, like Bush. Wife who will not say where here $100 million investments are. Pandering to Latinos after shifting around on immigration. Voted for the Iraq debacle. "Bomb, bomb, bomb." Basically McCain is another know-nothing (and proud of it) smarta**, like Bush. we like that kind, so he'll probably win.

Barack is for all people. For the first time I remember I AM PROUD of myself to be able to be part of 2008 presidental history. To have leaved the last 8 years with Bush, we can now have hope of change with Barack we can be part of the system. As my husaband & I retire in the next couple of years we will be able to mable to mae it with the tax cuts for under 50,000.

All people change their minds in their lives. The difference with Obama is that he changes his mind if he thinks it will cost him the election. Seeing his raw anger recently shows that he is not the nice guy I thought he was. He came across as scary mean- and attacking on a level I hadn't seen. I am not going to vote for him now- something inside of me just says he is the wrong one.
