Why You Shouldn’t Vote in the Midterm Elections

"don't vote"

Those who argue that voting is the answer, or that sitting out this election cycle and allowing Republicans to regain control of Congress would only make things worse, were obviously asleep at the switch when Republicans and Democrats morphed into a singular corporate hegemony. Continue »

Obama Shuts McCain DOWN! Reminds The Old Fogie “The Election Is Over”

McCain got a lil snappish with President Obama at yesterday’s health insurance summit, but the Prez handled him with no problems — shutting him down with the reminder that “the election is cover.” Gotta love the way our President takes all the wind out of John McLame’s sails without even raising his voice.

Election Halloween: Obama is a Treat and McCain is a “Trick”

Here is your boy Obama yesterday taking his cute daughter Sasha out for Halloween in Chicago. He got into it with the press and then started running away:

It wasn’t quite a Halloween nightmare on Obama street, but journalists on Friday drew a rare flash of anger from the normally unflappable Democratic presidential nominee.Barack Obama had taken a break from the campaign trail for a few hours of Halloween fun at home with his family four days before the election, but ended up visibly annoyed when news crews dogged their footsteps in their Chicago neighborhood.

“That’s enough. You’ve got a shot. Leave us alone,” Obama told reporters as he walked down the block with his 7-year-old daughter Sasha in her costume on the way to a party at a neighbor’s home.

Obama, usually cool in public during a campaign that has turned him into the frontrunner for the White House, did not disguise his irritation when his surprise walk caused news photographers and camera crews to scramble for position on the sidewalk.

He grew especially testy when a Polish television cameraman tried to approach them.”Come on guys, get back on the bus,” he pleaded with journalists, many of whom had accompanied him from the airport to Chicago’s Hyde Park neighborhood.Obama, wearing sunglasses but no costume, and his daughter, dressed up as what campaign aides said was a “corpse’s bride,” then broke into a sprint, leaving the journalists behind.

Only a few days until Obama turns the page of history. Everyone should be out there to vote on Tuesday and if you can’t vote, you better be pushing someone to get their a*s out there and support change. Don’t get it twisted, we have to go all out and full blast to make it happen.

A Day Late and A Milli Short for ABC

ABC missed out on a million dollar payday to air Obama’s commercial according to Livesteez:

A half-hour Barack Obama campaign ad will blanket the major broadcast networks Wednesday night – except for ABC. ABC tried to reach an agreement with the Obama campaign to air the commercial on a different night in an attempt to protect its struggling Wednesday lineup, according to people familiar with the discussions who requested anonymity because they were not authorized to comment publicly. ABC had a change of heart, but by the time it decided to make the 8 p.m. EDT Wednesday slot available for the Democratic presidential candidate’s spot, his campaign had already finalized the ad buy, the source said. ABC will air an episode of the hourlong “Pushing Daisies” at that time as scheduled, according to The Associated Press. The Obama campaign bought time on CBS, NBC and Fox for $1 million per network. In Fox’s case, the ad will precede the resumption of rain-suspended Game 5 of the World Series in Philadelphia. Fox decided to pre-empt its World Series pre-game show for the Obama spot and will start its baseball coverage after the commercial’s 8:30 p.m. conclusion. The 30-minute spot, which was announced in early October, will air six days before the election between Obama and Republican candidate John McCain. It is also scheduled to run on Univision, BET, MSNBC and TV One.

If there is one thing that television networks can count on, it’s that America will be watching Barack Obama. We really wish we could have been there when they were deciding between airing Obama’s commercial or showing “Pushing Dasies.” SMH

Will They Steal The Election from Obama????

Obama won the North Carolina primary tonight and it’s about that time for that shady Clinton to fall back and go sit her ass down. Although Clinton is expected to win Indiana tonight, North Carolina is a bigger state and has more delegates.

The shady Clinton mafia are not playing around, they are going to try to straight up gank the election or make sure Obama is damaged so much with “under-educated” white voters that he loses the presidential race. Black voters have been the most loyal segment to the Democratic Party (even blind support) but this is how we are repaid by the party establishment under the leadership of the Clintons.

It’s telling that the most loyal Clinton backers are under-educated and older white folks. SMH.

Will The Shady Clintons Steal The Election? Will There Be a Riot in Denver???

The shady Clintons and their negro mafia backers including the NAACP’s Julian Bond, Maxine, Waters, Robert Johnson, and Charles Rangel are fighting to steal the election from Barack Obama. Now that Obama clearly has her beat on delegates, the Clinton campaign is trying to change the rules in the middle of the game.

The shady Clintons now want votes in Michigan where Obama wasn’t on the ballot because of the state was under Democratic party sanctions, to count. Before the primary, she agreed with Obama they wouldn’t count! Same thang in Florida, Obama didn’t campaign in the state because of their agreement and Clinton won on delegates because her name was more recognizable at the time.

Democratic party officials are already talking about the young people in America going to the Democratic convention in Denver and rioting if Hillary cheats and gets the nomination. Discuss…
