It seems the bloom is off the rose for Palin. The surge McCain got by adding Palin to the ticket has petered out and Obama has tightened up the polls again.

Well, it was always tight. The issue was whether or not Obama would maintain that small lead. We all know that he must be leading heading into election day. He needs to shore up his leads in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota.

Florida, Ohio, and Virginia all are too close to call.

I'm doing what I can to get people to register to vote here in Michigan. I hope they follow through and show up at the polls on election day. McCain and company are using information from our biggest local foreclosure specialists to try to discourage people who have lost their homes from going to the polls.

Good luck Margie. I am in Chicago. Illinois is going to Obama. We are not a battleground.

Michigan, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin will all be tough.

I just got this mornings paper. The headlines reads: Obama doubles his lead in state. McCain 38% - Obama 51%. Will it hold? We'll see. We can’t afford to stop and to rest though.

I think the leads will hold for Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and perhaps Pennsylvania. The reason why is that he has always lead in these places, even when he was doing badly.

The Repubs will steal Indiana, I think. And there is now no way they can lose either Ohio or Florida.

If they lose one or both, they lose the election. Obama has to many states in play.

But that was always the case. They have to get back to at least even in those two then look to steal one. Perhaps out west.

From Brother Keita at Destee.

These mfs are crazy!!!!

:b anana:

Not All White Supremacists Oppose Black President

Intelligence Report

With the nomination of Barack Obama as the Democratic presidential candidate clinched, large sections of the white supremacist movement are adopting a surprising attitude: Electing America's first black president could be a very good thing.

It's not that the assortment of neo-Nazis, Klansmen, anti-Semites and others who make up this country's radical right have suddenly discovered that a man should be judged based on the content of his character, not his skin. On the contrary. A growing number of white supremacists, and even some of those who pass for intellectual leaders of their movement, think that a black man in the Oval Office would shock white America, possibly drive millions to their cause, and perhaps even set off a race war that, they hope, would ultimately end in Aryan victory.

"He will make things so bad for white people that hopefully they will finally realize how stupid they were for admiring these jigaboos all these years," "Darthvader" wrote on the neo-Nazi Vanguard News Network (VNN) web forum. "I believe in the motto 'Worse is Better' and Obama certainly fits that description." Another poster on the same thread this summer chimed in with this: "I hope Obama wins because in four years, white people just might be pissed off enough to actually do something. … White people aren't going to do a thing until their toys are taken away from them. So things have to be worse for things to be better."

"Oh man," enthused "Centimanus" on the white nationalist Stormfront website. "I am gleefully, sadistically looking forward to Obama as president. … It will be a beautiful day when the masses look at the paper and truly realize they have lost their own country." Added "Fulimnata": "To the average white man and woman, they could look at Obama and see plain as day that whites are not in control."

Another message, from "TheLastOfMyKind," agreed: "Could it be that the nomination of Obama finally sparks a sense of unity in white voters? I would propose that this threat of black, muslim [sic] rule may very well be the thing that finally scares some sense back into complacent whites throughout the nation." "Actually," said another poster, "if Obama were to win, it would be the best thing that ever happened to the Klan. They would have massive growth." And "TeutonicLegion" said that "a whole bunch of people will join us and find these boards" if Obama becomes president.

The leaders weigh in

Figures from the white supremacist establishment seem to agree with the crudely put sentiments of their followers. Richard Barrett, head of the Nationalist Movement, a Learned, Miss. -based white supremacist organization, sounded a similar note, telling the BBC: "The uprising of the American people for majority-rule and real-democracy has been building, but, with Obama turning the White House into the Black House, the upheaval will be overpowering." Barrett added, "The cataclysm will wake people up and the despotism will drive people to act, as never before."

"Thomas Dixon Jr.," a Stormfront poster using the name of the racist author who wrote the classic novel The Clansman, put it like this: "As WLP would say -- 'What is bad for the system is good for us.'" "Obama," added "The Patriot" in the same thread, "would be better for our cause in the long run, no doubt about it."

Other extremists writing on the topic think that having Obama as president would actually be preferable to Republican John McCain, who is widely seen by white supremacists as a sellout, particularly on the issue of nonwhite immigration into the United States.

Rocky Suhayda, head of the American Nazi Party, agreed. "White people are faced with either a negro or a total nutter who happens to have a pale face. Personally, I'd prefer the negro. National Socialists are not mindless haters. Here, I see a white man, who is almost dead, who declares he wants to fight endless wars around the globe to make the world safe for Judeo-capitalist exploitation, who supports the invasion of America by illegals.... Then, we have a black man, who loves his own kind, belongs to a Black-Nationalist religion, is married to a black woman.... That's the kind of negro that I can respect," Suhayda told Esquire.

RLMAO!!!!!!!!

LOLx10!!!

Why White Supremacists Support Barack Obama - Esquire

If recent polls are to be believed, white voters favor John McCain over Barack Obama by nearly ten percentage points, but the McCain and Obama camps probably haven’t factored in the following fact: In an informal Esquire survey, three out of four white supremacists prefer Obama, while McCain is the clear favorite among black nationalists. (Sure, our methodology suffered from an extraordinarily low sample size -- limited to four white supremacists and one black nationalist -- but just because it wouldn’t fly with Gallup doesn’t mean there ain't a kernel of truth in there.) This is just one of many surprising views that emerged after we talked to extremists about this historic electoral showdown between a 46-year-old black man and a 71-year-old white man.
Tom Metzger

Who: Director, White Aryan Resistance

Likes: White people, karaoke, environmentalists

Dislikes: Race-mixing, Jews, the federal government, capitalism

Career Highlights: Was Grand Dragon of Ku Klux Klan in the 70s; won the Democratic primary during his bid for Congress in 1980; appeared on the episode of Geraldo Rivera’s show in 1988 when Rivera’s nose was broken in a brawl.

“The corporations are running things now, so it’s not going to make much difference who's in there, but McCain would be much worse. He’s a warmonger. He’s a scary, scary person -- more dangerous than Bush. Obama, according to his book, Dreams Of My Father, is a racist and I have no problem with black racists. I’ve got the quote right here: ‘I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother’s white race.’ The problem with Obama is he’s being dishonest about his racial views. I’d respect him if he’d just come out and say, ‘Yeah, I’m a black racist.’ I don’t hate black people. I just think it’s in the best interest of the races to be separated as much as possible. See, I’m a leftist. I’m not a rightist. I hate the transnational corporations far more than any black person.”

Yahanna

Who: General, Israelite School Of Universal Practical Knowledge

Likes: Segregation

Dislikes: White oppressors, black women, American culture, Muslims, Christians, Martin Luther King Jr.

Career Highlights: Featured in 1999 BBC program about black supremacists; his street corner rants in Washington D.C. spurred changes in the local noise ordinance.

“Finding out Barack Obama is the Democratic nominee for president was one of the saddest days in black history. Another legacy of black death is about to begin, just like it began back in the '60s with probably the greatest traitor to black people in modern-day history, Martin Luther King. Every black leader that has some form of power has given black people false hope, when in fact, the closer they get to the white establishment, the more they become an actual enemy to black people. Black people need to move away from the establishment and towards a moral change. As for Obama, first of all, he’s not even a black man in the terms of what real black people consider a black man. He’s of African and white descent. How easily he dismissed his affiliation with Reverend Wright, was a clear indication that this is a politician, not a man of any real conviction. The same way he threw away that Reverend, once he becomes president, he must throw away black people. He’s going to have to harm black people to make white people satisfied that he’s not Reverend Wright’s boy. The disappointment we’re going to suffer from him is going to set us back another fifty years. McCain is definitely the better shot for black people.”



It is funny how to the overt "White" supremacists, Obama is a proud "Black" man. But to the "Black" Nationalist, he is a Tom.

This is some funny stuff!!

Nubian support for Hussein is so incredibly sad.

I mean it would be one thing if people just looked at it as purely an image thing, but it's so gross that people actually believe this whole thing is real and that Hussein is real. It's worse than people insisting hip hop is art or legit.


In a few months all that Hussein kool aid will turn to piss.

Those who can't see will feel.
