CNN reported today that Colin Powell has denied that he will endorse Obama and says that he won’t go to thier convention. The reporter at Fox News, who broke the story, is continuing to say Powell will continue to ostensibly support Obama.
It seems to me that certain Obama supporters are begging for Powell’s endorsement.
he’s a well respected military general, who wouldn’t want his opinion?

apparently the words "more foreign oil" next to a picture of obama is an evil conspiracy to make people think obama is foreign because the word "foreign" is next to his face

Choose who you are voting for and why you’re voting for them in one sentence Obama. After having a president who’s touted as the worst president in history, and having a party incumbent who thus far has not rejected any of Bush’s main policies, I could use a little hope and change.

Why Obama Could be in Trouble It might seem unlikely that the United States would elect John McCain to succeed George W. Bush when that would ensure continuation of many unpopular Bush policies: an ill-defined war with the Muslim world, right-wing consolidation of the U.S. Supreme Court, a drill-oriented energy strategy, tax cuts creating massive federal deficits, etc., etc. Wall Street Journal: Is Obama too skinny to be president?

Too Fit to Be President? Facing an Overweight Electorate, Barack Obama Might Find Low Body Fat a Drawback By AMY CHOZICK August 1, 2008; Page W1 Speaking to donors at a San Diego fund-raiser last month, Barack Obama reassured the crowd that he wouldn’t give in to Republican tactics to throw his candidacy off track. “Listen, I’m skinny but I’m tough,” Sen. Obama said. But in a nation in which 66% of the voting-age population is overweight and 32% is obese, could Sen. Obama’s skinniness be a liability? Despite his visits to waffle houses, ice-cream parlors and greasy-spoon diners around the country, his slim physique just might have some Americans wondering whether he is truly like them. The candidate has been criticized by opponents for appearing elitist or out of touch with average Americans. A Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll conducted in July shows Sen. Obama still lags behind Republican John McCain among white men and suburban women who say they can’t relate to his background or perceived values. “He’s too new … and he needs to put some meat on his bones,” says Diana Koenig, 42, a housewife in Corpus Christi, Texas, who says she voted for Sen. Hillary Clinton in the Democratic primary. “I won’t vote for any beanpole guy,” another Clinton supporter wrote last week on a Yahoo politics message board.

Sen. said Saturday he is simply acting pragmatically in softening his opposition to additional oil drilling along the nation’s coastline, a shift Republicans say shows he is calculating and out of touch with voters. Speaking in Florida, Obama insisted he still generally opposes additional drilling as his Republican rival, Sen. John McCain, once did as well but would be willing to support it as part of a new bipartisan energy proposal that seeks to lessen dependence on foreign oil. “If we can come up with a genuine bipartisan compromise, in which I have to accept some things that I don’t like, or the Democrats have to accept some things that they don’t like in exchange for actually moving us in the direction of actual energy independence, then that’s something I’m open to,” the Illinois Democrat said. Oil drilling, a hot topic in Florida, has been a point of dispute between Obama and McCain in recent weeks. “Sen. Obama says he wants energy independence, but he doesn’t support anything that serves that goal,” McCain said Saturday in his weekly radio address. “He believes every domestic energy source has a problem. I believe every energy source needs to be part of the solution.” Continue reading… Obama backs away from McCain’s debate challenge

“Democratic candidate Barack Obama on Saturday backed away from rival John McCain’s challenge for a series of joint appearances, agreeing only to the standard three debates in the fall. ” You have to limit your debates when you don’t have much substance. I am surprised Obama will even be part of 3 debates. If Obama simply continues to pose for the camera, he will clinch the election for himself without ever having to debate. right..thats why he debated hillary about 20 times over a 6 month period… women don’t really let you choose when you “debate”
McCain has so much substance im sure Obama is terrified I find it disgusting that Obama fans are ok with this. How can you be ok with your cantidate refusing to discuss issues? Wtf? Did you actually watch any of those debates? Continue reading… |
