Michael Moore said it very well tonight on CNN -This election isn't Obama v McCain...

[kid a]

Its Obama against ignorance, Obama against racism.

also, to paraphrase: Obama against the underbelly of idiots like Rush Limbaugh.

[Cha]

1. And Obama says that too..

this race isn't about him..it's about our Country and changing its present disasterous course.

[kid a]

2. that is one of my favorite parts of all his stump speeches - when he turns it over to us! =)

[Cha]

8. Yeah, and it's

so right.

[RoadRage]

3. It's basically good vs evil..

Evil is trying to dress itself in "christian" clothing ($150,000 worth), and point the "evil" finger at the good guy.... but people are smartening up finally... they can't do this crap and get away with it again.

[tridim]

Probably the only person in America that can. Gawd, I'm getting excited.

9. < spews coffee on keyboard>

10. You know what's saddest about all this?

I don't think the real John McCain is really for all of this racial garbage.

I mean, the real John McCain, not what the junior Karl Roves in the GOP what John McCain to be, probably would be happy to endorse Obama right now, because Obama is standing more for what pre-Presidential Campaign John McCain stood for. He's whored himself out to the hard right of the GOP, proven again by his choice of potentially the dumbest running mate in history, in order to become the nominee, forgetting that these backstabbing retards sank him by lying to millions of people in 2000 and that these same people are fantastically out of touch to post-Bush America. That fact is very sad in many ways. IN many ways, I think McCain would fit better as a Democrat, because the Democrats have a long history of strong pro-military Democrat mavericks - let's not forget the man whose home was a mere mile form my old residence, Henry M. Jackson.

Perhaps all of this, Obama will offer a position to McCain, if McCain will leave the Republicans. I think he'll do it, and give the Roveites a big f**k you.

12. McHoover was always crap and wants to win at any cost

He's another silver spoon who thinks the world owes everything.

Maybe, he's not a bigot but I'm pretty certain he's classist as a motherfucker and voting down MLK day more than once isn't a strong sign that he isn't really Archie McBunker after all.

11. Who was it that said the election was "a referendum on whether reality matters"?

[Bryn]

13. That's the truth! He's right.

15. I saw a play last week "Deerhunting with Jesus" based on a book, same title

It dealt with the origins and thought processes of the "low-information" rural voter - through the eyes of Joe Beagant, who had left rural Virgina and returned to find that though those people were part of him and his background and family, he'd himself since become better informed and no longer agreed with their ideologies. He got into an argument with an old friend about "socialism" etc. It was quite interesting.

The final analysis was that yes, ignorance is the problem. And, that education is the key - for those that can be educated and are willing. The problem is, reaching them.
