Well look at the moron we elected last time, I guess people like to elect idiots, and thats the demo they play too.

I think we are in for a  lot of such commercials. Obama is charismatic and articulate.  You can't really blame a guy for putting himself out there when it plays to his strengths. I'm glad I don't watch much TV.  While Obama doesn't bother me, Hillary's voice is almost like fingernails on the chalkboard to my ears.

The thing is, he doesn't SAY anything. It's just empty words. Smoke and mirrors. He has no record to speak of, other than being the single most liberal left wing member of Congress.

Last time I read the ratings for the past couple of years, Obama's voting record was the most liberal.

You're right that he is extremely liberal.  However, from my observations, many people are willing to vote for him based simply on the fact that they like him.  His campaign for change has appeal on the surface although is has no substance.

Liberals, and those who don't bother to consider substance will probably flock to his banner.

EXACTLY. He speaks almost exclusively in broad generations of "change" and "hope", and very little of specifics. It's VERY safe, and easy to pass off on those who are relatively easy to "lead".

And which if the major contenders on either side of the isle doesnt do this again?

In otherwords. he's a typical politition

Osama/Obama dont give a single crap about Illinois so you know he wont care about the US if by some mistake that he is elected.

If you arent from Chicago or Springfield, you never heard of him before he started to run. Apparently to them, Illinois stops as soon as you get to the southern city limits of Springfield.

Last major article in the paper that came out, over 90% of the budget cuts was for south of springfield. Cancelled money for schools, roads, cities, etc. But every single budget proposed in Chicago or Springfield was passed because all of his corrupt theiving crooked pals were there.


He isnt welcome in this part of the state and I believe he knows it too

No, Obama is worse, and I'm not saying ANY of them are without guilt. As much as I dislike Shrillary, her positions are much clearer than Obama's. Basically all our choices really suck, regardless of party, unless something real strange happens and some sort of deal is brokered.

the dems dont care what obama or billary are saying .. they are either going to vote for a black man or a white woman .. period.

I just don't see any of this in Obama.  When I see this guy I see a very coreographed (sp), mechanical politician.  I just don't get the major appeal of him.  Idiot or not, i'd rather spend the afternoon with dubya, than osama obama, and it has nothing to do with being conservative.  The guy just doesn't seem very human to me at all.

Fox News has actually done one good thing lately.  They were interviewing a group of dems listening in on one of the debates, and there was majority support for Obama.  One of the anchors asks them why they like Obama, and to name one specific thing he has done.  Guess what?  Not a single person could name one accomplishments.  They are voting for a guy because he has a nice personality, or so people say.


ugh.

I been telling people here the same thing. Hitler or Osama is seen as a novelty. The first black guy or first woman as president. People wont care about the issues, they just want them in office as novelty.


Puke.
