Feeling triumphant and optimistic for Obama

It is time to set aside our fear and hate. His N.C. speech makes clear his support for the hopes and dreams of all Americans.

This letter has as much content as an Obama speech. Meaning, it has none.

Anyone elected as our president will only be as good as the congress - we vote and elect them so ultimately the future is in our hands.

The letter incenuates that if I dont vote for Obama that I somehow fear and hate afro americans. If I was going to vote for him, it wouldnt have been because he was black, it would have been because I respected his politics and vision. Im not going to waste space here listing all my reasons for not voting for Obama but I can assure you it has nothing to do with his race(races) or from keeping a black american out of office. Most of us who voted for Hillary have taken the stance that since our candidate has pretty much lost then we will not participate in the election. Why would I vote for the person who I voted against?? No more election talk for us, its already finished for the next 4 years.No need to redicule us with your rhetoric about voting for the party. 100s of thousands of us will not participate when the election begins.

Obama would not have won NC but for the 34 percent lead he had before the first vote was cast, from the "blacks". Hillary cut 20 percent of that lead off and he won by 14 percent. He cannot win in a general election. The Democrats are going to lose another election they shold win "hands down". The young folks went for the "rock star" quality in the beginning but won't show up to vote, whites, by and large, won't vote for him, older women won't vote for him. So, get ready for 4 more years of "W" type BS!

Just curious...are all of you "anti" Obama folks honestly going to vote for McCain? Honestly, I don't think Obama has the goods either, but I am much more comfortable taking a risk with him than voting for 4 more years of the same...which is exactly what a vote for McCain will be.(Not to mention the fact that McCain is hateful,very likely likely in the early stages of senility, and very apt to snap at any moment!)

Obama is a first class snake oil salesman. His words neither match his actions nor his abilities. He's inexperienced, naieve and possibly un-American. When the gloves come off you will learn more about him and his motivations. Don't decide anything until you know more about him, his wife and their backgrounds and connections.

You morons that won't vote for Obama because he beat Hilary. I believe he won by more that 100,000 votes one of which was mine and I am not black. You ought to google Obama's biography, not written by him or his minister and you would be amazed at the accomplishments of this man in his first term in the US Senate. Oh but that would mean you would have to read many articles under that heading that would not set well with you I won't vote for him not because he is not black but because he has no experience. You want experience Bush had 4 years of it and if anything was dummer the second 4 years than the first 4 years. To the cry baby democrats that won't vote in the election, you are the type of people that will cost the dems the election not Obama.

Nixon is ok with me. He hated the news media and hippies.

Cubafan39,
"You ought to google Obama's biography, not written by him or his minister and you would be amazed at the accomplishments of this man in his first term in the US Senate."

How about providing us a cliffs note version. What are Obama's senatorial accomplishments?

Any one who would pull for a losing team like the Chicago Cubs has got to be a loser themselves. So we are morons and cry babys huh? Screw the democrats. We haphazardly pushed Kerry and Gore, 2 of the most pathetic weenies into the last 2 elections and look where it got us. Now yer going to push a candidate who has split the party into the election and just expect everyone to suck it up and vote for him?? Youre crazy.
