Comments & Feedback
I ran across this Barack Obama video on youtube. all i can say is WOW!
key words "figidy, phantum, obama"
With all the discussion in polls, why is no one talking about the effect of Nader and Barr? The Real Clear Politic polls I have seen show anywhere from 3 to 5% may vote for one of these two..... most of these votes come from the McCain side of the ledger. Will McCain be Barred or Nadered (Neutered)?
Inquiring minds want to know.
