His back is up against the wall,he knows he's going down. Obama was so poised and never raveled.On January 20, 2009 Obama will be inaugrated. I will be there with tears of joy! Hope to see you all there!

Obama in the eye during the first debate and not shaking his hand at the end of the second to show the lowly prejudice side of his base constituency that he's putting the "uppity" "elite" "n*gger" in his place. But to everyone else he looks like crotchety old man that can't control his temper.

I think this a great format that hopefully everyone(whatever the opinion) just gets involved and be apart of the process vs. saying it doesn't matter. It very much matters and hope that this/we are part of history. <BR/><BR/>The next debate is October 15, 2008 * I can't wait for it and to see all of the comments to follow.<BR/><BR/>So...to all the bloggers ~ be informed and express yourself!!!! Always food for thought.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again BrookeDre Lewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18411061260155363893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-39696872573629415672008-10-08T17:08:00.000-04:002008-10-08T17:08:00.000-04:00Thank you Sandee!

The NERVE of a black man trying to run against me...and actually be BEATING me in the polls." The undertones of McCain and Palin's speech is absolute disgust that there is a more qualified candidate who just happens to be black. He can barely stand to look at him. Meanwhile Obama is cool as a cucumber. McCain is out of the game now. I don't for a second underestimate any tricks they may have up their sleeve as we approach election day, but I agree, "That One" will be our new president come January.Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02584160320846679744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-20333192456647749802008-10-08T17:05:00.000-04:002008-10-08T17:05:00.000-04:00Well Done.Keep it Coming Girl.Well Done.<BR/>Keep it Coming Girl.Sandeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08565161727073998600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-24052040073043955482008-10-08T16:53:00.000-04:002008-10-08T16:53:00.000-04:00Brooke,Thanks for starting this blog and sharing y...Brooke,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for starting this blog and sharing your thoughts. I hope you blog on a regular basis, as I would love read more of your “work” and get an idea of what’s going on in that crazy mind of yours. :-)<BR/><BR/>Now with regards to Senator McCain’s comment, I have to admit that I was PISSSED! So pissed, I had a flashback of the movie Roots. We are all familiar with the scene when a defiant Kunta Kinte is being whipped and “massa” tries to make him denounce his namesake. “Toby, your name is Toby!!!!” That’s what I initially saw last night; McCain TRYING to denounce Obama by calling him “That one!” <BR/><BR/>And then it hit me! McCain is frustrated that he is losing and he knows that he will not beat “That one!” “That One” is winning the 2008 Presidential race! “That One” will definitely get my vote and millions of others on November 4. And “That One” WILL BE the next President of the United States!Keefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14112878424828923041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-38282535265639870522008-10-08T16:48:00.000-04:002008-10-08T16:48:00.000-04:00So true Amanda Panda!...McCain's desperation is sh...So true Amanda Panda!...McCain's desperation is showing and it's nothing pretty.

He refuses to stoop down to their level. Refuses to! He knows that his purpose/that this purpose is so much greater than feeding into or entertaining such nonsense. He is a man of GREAT integrity and will not allow anyone or anything that is said about him, deter him from the greater purpose. <BR/><BR/>Regarding McCain referring to him as “that one”…due to the fact that his tactics are not working, his frustrations are showing his true colors…Extremely Disrespectful and in Poor Taste. Can you imagine what he calls him behind close doors? I’m sure we all can. <BR/><BR/>“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11581839082850708367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-46229867869348776002008-10-08T15:50:00.000-04:002008-10-08T15:50:00.000-04:00Thank you Rene.

It's more of the same. But before the debate I had said to a friend...McCain and his team are about out of options and are going to go nuclear ~ thinking that Obama was going to the class act and very presidential meanwhile McCain would start to show his true self. Pulling out of Michigan is the tip of the ice berg. Each day as the polls show him falling more and more behind he has started(more like continued!) his resentment of Obama. Clearly last night was (in my opinion) just the start of him starting to lose his temper. This is the last person the USA needs in negotiating peace or world problems!!! Tactics with no strategy in site is how McCain camp has gone. Look at his poor choice as a running mate. He not only did his party a disservice, but the country as a whole. Duly qualified she is not! Oh course the folks on the right side of aisle are saying this is nothing and it refers to their ads about Obama being "The One" ~ which is bull. None they are complaining that Palin's New Week photo didn't get touched up...what's next.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Brooke(by way of Amanda!) for putting that out there~Much Success!!<BR/><BR/>DreDre Lewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18411061260155363893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-28759967554635443602008-10-08T15:32:00.000-04:002008-10-08T15:32:00.000-04:00Ummm....very intersting.

I can get a sense of what I missed. You are correct when you say that God has his hand in everything. (Isaiah 45:7) "...I the Lord do all these things."<BR/><BR/>You should not be surprised by McCain. He is doing what he was created to do...be wicked.<BR/><BR/>Your sista in Christ,<BR/>TorriTorrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05233966872051103758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-40058258468210531662008-10-08T15:08:00.000-04:002008-10-08T15:08:00.000-04:00Thanks!
