You McCain supporters; don’t believe the press or the polling numbers. I have been looking at as much data as I could find today and I believe this election is closer than anyone thought.
Do not, repeat, do not allow the media to suppress the vote. Get out there and make your voice heard.
Reports are coming in from all over, especially Pennsylvania and Ohio about intimidation from Democrats. There are even more reports of possible voter fraud. Military ballots were mailed late and may not be counted. There IS an attempt to steal this election. Do not let it happen.
The media was allowed to select our candidate when they convinced too many of us that McCain was the only Republican who had a chance to win. Now they want to convince us that the election is over. It’s not over until we say it’s over.
If you don’t want higher taxes, and don’t believe that 95% tax cut routine because it will not happen
If you don’t believe in “spreading the wealth.”
If you don’t want more liberal supreme court justices.
If you don’t want Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid running the country.
If you don’t want a leader who’s formative years were spent with the likes of Rev. Wright and Bill Ayers.
If you do not want this country to be taken over by the radical left and policy formed by them.
Get up, get to the polls and vote. It’s not too late to spoil Obama’s party.

Hey Jorge - this is Missouri
Jorge - you must be from the liberal east coast. If you are going to post to a newspaper site in Kansas City (KC Star) you might want to get the state right. To you it probably doesn't matter since we are west of New Jersey. Go post to your NY Times. They love you.
So lets see what GWB is doing this week
He's f*ckin with the environment. Kind of makes you think he KNOWS there won't be a fellow R to screw stuff up any more.

A striking feature of Ross
A striking feature of Ross Balano's strident commentary is the repetitive refrain "If you don't want..." Although the election outcome is not yet certain, a likely Obama win reflects a campaign designed to appeal to what ordinary Americans want rather than what they don't want - the appeal to hope rather than rejection.
In the past, negative campaigning has been deemed the best way to win elections, but voters have changed, particularly as the media have focused on times when a candidate's main effort was to tear down an opponent. More voters than previously are rejecting that approach, and Independents in particular have been alienated.
It seems likely that by tomorrow morning, we will have to chance to see whether the tear-down tactic still works, or whether we've gone past that to a nation of voters who prefer a candidate to tell them what he will do that's good rather than what the other will do that's bad.
