Colin Powell has endorsed Obama for President

[Modbert]

Because it is your job to decide for yourself who you think the best president is.

This is not a used car lot.

Really? I've been in the wrong place all this time then.

 

[Red Dawn]

He did not say he was voting Obama, he said he hopes Obama wins.

Weird. He hopes Obama wins, but he's voting for McCain?

 

[Modbert]

I sure as hell don't discuss my voting record either, and I don't support FISA - and both for the same reason - it is none of your business.

Testy, no?

No need to compare a simple question to someone listening in on your convo.

 

[DavidS]

Powell is solid center right. This is the last nail in McCains coffin...

I hope you're right, Peter.

 

[Caligirl]

Weird. He hopes Obama wins, but he's voting for McCain?

I have no idea who he is voting for. He may be writing in his wife's name.

I am not particularly testy, but I do wish the left would stop being as blindly partisan as the right.

 

[Modbert]

He did not say he was voting Obama, he said he hopes Obama wins.

That's great? Not saying it applies to Dillo but:

I know plenty of Republicans on this board and outside of this board who want Obama to win. That way the Republican party will "learn" supposedly and nominate somebody who is actually more Republican come 2012. Plus, the American people will supposedly see the Democrats for who they are and get voted out of Congress too.

Crazy idea I know, but I'm not the one believing in it.

 

[sealybobo]

Are you kidding ? I dont come here to campaign because it's futile. No one here is going to change their mind one iota. I prefer to discuss our political system is general and how it currently works against us.
I made a joke that Powell endorsed Obama because his wife told him to. In all seriousnes I have no clue why he really did it. I would have to ask him.

Or you could have listened to his interview like the rest of us.

Another under informed voter who wants to talk about the issues.

Please inform yourself first.

Or go to a discusion you know more about.

 

[DavidS]

Well, I just watched the interview from my DVR and WOW. What a GREAT interview overall.

 

[dilloduck]

I hope you're right, Peter.

Endorsements are a sign that people think you are too stupid to chose the 'right" person.

 

[Caligirl]

Really? I've been in the wrong place all this time then.

Yeah, the used car lot is across town.

 

[Red Dawn]

I have no idea who he is voting for. He may be writing in his wife's name.

I am not particularly testy, but I do wish the left would stop being as blindly partisan as the right.

Its a political message board. We discuss the candidates we like and who we're voting for.

Dillo said he'd be happy to say which Democrats for prez he's voted for. But, so far he hasn't responded.

 

[Caligirl]

he said he'd be happy to as soon as you explain why it's relevant.

 

[Modbert]

Yeah, the used car lot is across town.

Really? Damn

I could of swore all these people trying to sell me this car that is older, outdated, flawed with many problems and a horrible backup engine in case you need the old one replaced.

I guess they were just talking about McCain/Palin.

 

[Red Dawn]

he said he'd be happy to as soon as you explain why it's relevant.

Dillo, if somebody has spent the last 30 years only voting for Republican candidates for pres, its kinda hard for them to claim they're non partisan.

So which Dem candidates did you vote for prez Dillo?

 

[Caligirl]

Really? Damn

I could of swore all these people trying to sell me this car that is older, outdated, flawed with many problems and a horrible backup engine in case you need the old one replaced.

I guess they were just talking about McCain/Palin.

And see? You figured it out for yourself without needing help from anyone.

 

[del]

Again, I haven't seen it and I spar with Dillo constantly.

open your eyes, then.

 

[sealybobo]

That's great? Not saying it applies to Dillo but:

Crazy idea I know, but I'm not the one believing in it.

The democrats won't have the luxury of tanking the economy and not winning 2 wars and still getting re elected.

The fact is, we need all 3 branches of government to fix the mess the gop put us in.

They won't have the money to be irresponsible either.

Ps. Obama raised ashit load of money! 600 milion? Wow! And the gop can't raise the same amount of money they did in 04 because even rich ppl are hurting. So their not spending on mccain. But millions of ppl like me are sending in $25 or $15 or $50. So obama is going to work for us. Mccain will only work for the rich who have contributed to him. That's the way it works. Who would you work for? You'd work for the ppl who helped you win. Did corporations help obama too? Sure, so they can be assured he won't fuck them over, but the era of fucking we the people is over.

 

[Modbert]

open your eyes, then.

My eyes are opened. Though tonight they will be distracted by the Red Sox game.

 

[Caligirl]

Don't listen to del, he's voting for Bob. Bob is a prick.

Vote for Joe.

 

[del]

Don't listen to del, he's voting for Bob. Bob is a prick.

Vote for Joe.

hey!
Bob's a uniter, not a divider, like that half assed plumber dillo shills for
