6. Yes it was him, Chuch Todd said Obama is only going to win Southren states b/c of blacks

Before it was Obama couldn't get the White vote, what's his problem, now it's a problem he has 97% of the black vote.

They really expect us blacks to even consider voting for a man who holds the equivilant of KLAN RALLIES???

Who turned Muslim in to the new N-Word
and Made it Ok for people to Racist hate on the Air ways??

Really, they thought Blacks, hispanics, Jews, and self respecting whites would support that shit!

12. well, that's kind of....offensive.
Yeah, I saw the part when they said "Obama would be in trouble if this came down to PA, Florida, and OH"....um, I'm quite glad that it's not all down to that too, and even though OH and Florida are not in the bag.....the last time I checked, we were leading there too...assholes.

2. Michigan was supposed to be the big state McCain was shooting for.
However, the economy is such a mess in Michigan that the McCain people didn't have the money to compete there.

They thought Kwame Kilpatrick's problems would polarize the Michigan electorate. It didn't.

8. The repuke MSM is really pushing race in this election. Obama hasn't brought up
race at all, but the repukes keep pushing it every chance the get.. except in cases like Ashley Todd who committed a HATE CRIME by purposefully blaming a black man for a false crime, and trying to link him to anti-McCain anger to tip the election. Where's the MSM now? Why the FUCK aren't they following up on the BOGUS Ashley Todd story??? Why aren't they showing the white supremists (there've been several now) who've been threatening Obama's life?? Where's the news stories on THAT??

11. Yeah I heard that nonsense
It's amazing that they would try to link Obama to the Detroit Mayor simply because they are both black. I guess Obama is responsible for the actions of any black politician........SMDH

:mad:

13. Remember when we were all worried about Michigan?
Now no one even mentions it anymore. CNN's map lists it as "Safe Obama".

14. I'm from the Detroit area
and you should some of the racist comments they leave on the detroit free press website. For example, Kwame Kilpatrick was known as "the hip hop mayor" and last week when they released more text messages, some racist left a comment at the end of the article saying this is why we can't have a "hip hop president".

16. "One" and "won" are different words with different meanings.
