Something tells me there is going to be an election day suprise. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;About time they look into corruption and voter fraud. How about that college new station in Ohio found &lt;br&gt;Voter Drive people (and interviewed one on camera) picking people off the street, registering them, and telling them to vote Obama. Talk about fraud. ACORN is an issue that needs to be talked about and seeing how the media (even FOX sometimes) is so pro Obama no negative speak can be printed or aired about him. </description></item><item><title>Obama: Hey, big spender</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/08/1513349.aspx#1513683</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Oct 2008 13:38:44 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1513683</guid><dc:creator>The - Democrat Soldier </dc:creator><description>Good for him; and it's paying off.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Guess what Domenico - officials will be raiding other areas too - many RNC or John McCain's campaign offices and voter registration arena's for alleged voter tampering by the GOPs.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Make sure you do a piece about that too!!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Barack Obama will win by a landslide.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thank you and GOD BLESS AMERICA </description></item><item><title>Obama: Hey, big spender</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/08/1513349.aspx#1513760</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Oct 2008 13:42:12 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1513760</guid><dc:creator>Tom, Edison, NJ</dc:creator><description>Obama's got all the momentum now. &amp;nbsp;McCain must be punching the wall in anger.</description></item><item><title>Obama: Hey, big spender</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/08/1513349.aspx#1513791</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Oct 2008 13:44:09 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1513791</guid><dc:creator>subgruvet, ok</dc:creator><description>Blinky is on the verge of getting the comeuppance he so richly deserves. &amp;nbsp;He's a fake. &amp;nbsp;Ask if we could, those 134 sailors who died in the Enterprise fire who ran away. &amp;nbsp;A man who dubbed himself a maverick for political gain which has been the path of his life...a false personna. &amp;nbsp;McCain you're not going to finally outrank your daddy and granddaddy. &amp;nbsp;The navy vet couldn't be happier to see you beaten by a younger stronger more honorable man.</description></item><item><title>Obama: Hey, big spender</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/08/1513349.aspx#1513850</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Oct 2008 13:46:57 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1513850</guid><dc:creator>eagle1776</dc:creator><description>This is the kind of thing one would expect from Republicans but it looks like both sides are apt to do things which are illegal.

I am sure that no one on that sound stage is worried about losing their&lt;br&gt;jobs, not worried about losing their homes, not worried about losing their retirement. Although they may lose some $ in the market it wont really hurt them. They can just hang on till the market comes back. &amp;nbsp;I guess they think we dont care about the issues, WRONG, thats what we have been begging to hear&lt;br&gt;these men talk about. Sorry you were so bored.&lt;br&gt; Dont yall worry about the blood, I am sure Gov. Palin will see to it there is real blood shed, I am 62 year old white woman who grew up in the south and I have seen her type of naration lead to blood. Pat B.&lt;br&gt;they are turning your girl into toxic waste. When she no longer has the bushies to keep her quite she will run her ignorant mouth and be demoted to a poor imitation of Ann Coulter or Laura Ingram. &amp;nbsp;Shes not real smart you know.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Obama/Biden&lt;br&gt;marty</description></item><item><title>Obama: Hey, big spender</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/08/1513349.aspx#1514046</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Oct 2008 13:56:50 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1514046</guid><dc:creator>jesse     St.Paul Minnesota</dc:creator><description>As the poll numbers change in Obamas favor the repuks will make all kinds of accusations of fraud and cheating.It is intersting that after the Florida voter supression that dissalowed thousands of voters in 2000 they seem gleefull that they stole the election for the Governors brother GWB,as long as we continue to trust people to be truthfull when they register this will not stop.As far as Obama out spending the bomber it all comes down to his plan.And that is to make the repuks defend there red states and grind them into the ground.It worked really well in Michigan,it is working in most of the toss up states and the repuks are running on fumes.Plus the repuks havent figured out how to spend there loot,still running t.v.adds in Minnesota,the bomber is down by 14 points,its not rocket science.</description></item><item><title>Obama: Hey, big spender</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/08/1513349.aspx#1514123</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Oct 2008 14:00:09 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1514123</guid><dc:creator>BJ, CA</dc:creator><description>When one starts to tell lies it's really hard to keep the facts straight..John McFactsless your going down!</description></item><item><title>Obama: Hey, big spender</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/08/1513349.aspx#1514182</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Oct 2008 14:02:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1514182</guid><dc:creator>Michelle Zee</dc:creator><description>What next? &amp;nbsp;Raiding headquarters...this won't solve McCain's problem if not having substance or ideas to help the American people!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;McCain, where is Bin Laden? &amp;nbsp;Please tell us where he is because we know he is responsible for killing over 3,000 Americans and we know he is NOT in Iraq. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; We have been there for 6 years or more and he is not there, so maybe you can tell us where he is! &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; </description></item><item><title>Obama: Hey, big spender</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/08/1513349.aspx#1514213</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Oct 2008 14:04:01 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1514213</guid><dc:creator>SMH</dc:creator><description>Democrat Secretary of State leading the charge against suspected corrupt practices against democrat supporting group.
