I'd be interested in seeing how many first time voters are participating with race as their primary motivation.

any candidate who has ever relied on the 18-24 crowd has been disappointed. I don't think it will be enough to make Obama lose, but it's possible they won't turn out in the numbers he needs to make this a blowout. I still think he wins, but maybe not as decisively as it appears right now.

It aint gonna happen.

What will be your excuse for McCain's loss?
in PA rednecks and racists. Another brilliant comment by your hero.

If some people vote against McCain because of his age, then turnabout is fair play.

it to society. It would be cool. It would be historical. Crap like that.

What they fail to realize, it's them that it will hurt the most in the long run. Typically college kids. Can you imagine the entitlement bill they will get slapped with? If you think Social Security being 25% of our federal budget, what will it be like when it's 40% and then throw on healthcare. These college kids won't be able to earn enough for any disposable income once the government takes their share. And if they do, the government will simply take more of their money.

The price of a college education.........priceless!

Further proof that you're a moron of unprecedented proportions.

The entitlement bill (whatever that is) is nothing compared to what they'll be "slapped with" due to your party's decades of fiscal irresponsibility.

When using the words "socialist" and "cakewalk" draw accusations of racism, I'm not sure how an Obama loss can be blamed on anything else.

But if you think it's bad now, just wait until after he wins. Every shred of opposition to Obama's policies over the ensuing 4 years will be blamed on racism.

Prepare for the New Era of Racism.
