Many, who live in countries where idea of a minority being elected leader is unthinkable, expressed amazement & satisfaction that US could overcome centuries of racial strife and elect an African-American as president. - Obama's election disses GOP!

Sen. John McCain: "My opponent is working out details with Speaker Pelosi & Senator Reid to raise your taxes, increase spending & concede defeat in Iraq. We're a few points down, but tonight and today and tomorrow we're going to win this race."

Both Senator Joseph McCarthy & Benedict Arnold had military careers, which surpassed that of John McCain. Would you vote for either of them? The Sophistry advanced by McCain that POW status indicates prez material is INSANE! Someone should ask ?How?!

Tabacco warned you all several times before that the ONLY way for McCain to win the Election was by Voter Caging and Vote Switching. Already it has begun. They did ELECTION FRAUD in 2000 & 2004; why wouldn't GOP do it in 2008!

How could anybody expect to get past Election officials as "Donald Duck", "Elmer Fudd" or "Daffy Duck" their given names? Those aren't Election SCAMS; those are Election JOKES! Those characters won't show up on Election Day, at least not at Polls.

New Alaska legislature report concludes Republican VP nominee, Governor Sarah Palin, abused her power and violated State ethics law by trying to get her former brother-in-law, Mike Wooten, fired from the State police. - THE CONTROL-FREAK TICKET!

AMY GOODMAN, "The news each day suggests that the BAILOUT hasn't solved the problem. Obama & McCain both voted for the BAILOUT. It passed, larded with Pork to woo uncooperative congressmen. The major thing lacking from the debate was, well, DEBATE!"

ROSA CLEMENTE: Green Party's viewpoint very clear: an immediate end to the war, immediate withdrawal of troops from Iraq, but also Afghanistan; talk about withdrawing troops in other people's homelands. - Tabacco: You didn't hear that last night!

Because campaigns terrified that Biden & Palin will make major gaffe during tonight's performance, they severely restricted response times to 90-seconds + 2 minutes discussion. - Tabacco is not watching this JOKE!

Mich. Macomb County GOP Chairman James Carabelli, "We will have a list of foreclosed homes and will make sure people aren't voting from those addresses". DNC & Obama campaign have filed federal lawsuit to block controversial voter suppression tactic.

MacArthur says notion any American can become president reinforces "destructive national delusion that widespread, up-from-the-ground, truly popular democracy really exists in America. To assume that is equal to believing in Santa Claus".

AXIOM: Changing one's Party affiliation does not change a Politico's stripes one iota! Lou Dobbs, are you listening? + 10 Commandments Of Politics

SUPERDELEGATES instituted to give frontrunner in 3-person race a majority, not in 2-person race where it is UNNECESSARY! Talking Heads like Lou Dobbs call idea "undemocratic". Lou Dobbs is a LYING, HYPOCRITICAL DEMAGOGUE, who knows better!

Tabacco: That's 2 elections in Mississippi (you can't get any further into the Deep-South than that), 1 in Louisiana, 1 in Illinois. That's more than 3 but who's counting! Is this the year pocketbooks trump biases!

"Hillary can only win in metaphorical back room. If Rules Committee changes rules in last inning, she will really be hurt leaving Democratic Party in shambles. Fundamental structural issues of American democracy not being addressed, just horse race."

Jack Cafferty's Blog Question Feb. 5, 2008, "How would you change the U.S. presidential primary system?" - Tabacco, "Frontloading should be revolving process of all 50 - not Iowa and New Hampshire every 4 years!"

McCain must answer for Allard Amendment, pro-War/pro-Bush stance, 894th of 899 at Annapolis Naval Academy, Vietnam Forrestal fire, campaign finance champion vs. spending crazy money, interventionist/expansionist paternalism, Keating 5 Scandal

Al Gore lost 2000 Election by 4 Electoral Votes 271-267. He needed either his home State, Tennessee (11) or New Hampshire (4) Votes. Damn Florida; New Hampshire cost us 2000! Kerry won NH in 2004, but lost Iowa & NM. Which will Hillary win?
