It's pretty bad when this supposed "first for the people" is so incredibly rude! He looks down the end of his nose at people with an aire of hostility if you're not black, he also treats you like you like you're an ass if he thinks you don't measure up to his level of expertise (which is I don't know what)? God help us if he gets into office this O'bama will be the end of America as we knew it.

my question is "who the heck cares?" more pertinent questions,
who is going to raise taxes the most?
who is best for the Iraq war?
who will best protect the homeland?
who will pick the best judges?
WHO WILL BE THE BEST PRESIDENT?
try some questions that actually mean something

McCain voted better manners. That is the funniest joke I've ever heard. This so called straight talk thinks it's okay to call his wife the "C" word which rhymes with punt, he continues to deny/lie about saying things he's said and he continues to blame Obama for words that came from other people/groups.
I would rather have Obama call me "sweetie" than McCain call me the "C" word (rhymes with punt).

McCain does not realize the subtleties of the salad fork and often has course language for his waitstaff.

I have a hard time with Obama's air of superiority & his arrogance. He calls himself black yet I don't believe he fully identifies with them as he feels he is "above them." I cannot help but doubt his sincerity. He doesn't come across as truly "believing" in what he's doing.....he just wants the title of "Commander-in-Chief." The more I learn about him the more uncomfortable I am about the possibility of Obama becoming our leader. It's frightening due to his questionable behavior, his lack of experience, ideas, knowledge (both foreign & domestic) as well as the false promises he knows cannot be brought to fruition. Also, we don't know who he will appoint to the various important positions. They could be more dangerous & corrupt than Cheney or Rumsfeld. We cannot take a chance, so it's imperative we do everything in our power to keep Barack Obama from ever occupying the White House. He's shady & cannot be trusted to be at the helm of America.
I hear about McCain's hotheadness; we've had such presidents in the past. What is most important is one who truly cares about the United States & the people & put forth an "honest" effort to steer the country in a positive direction. I do not have confidence in Obama doing that as he has his "own kind of change" in mind & I'm afraid it would not be best for us. Can't risk it, folks. No Obama!

Well, as a "Sweetie" I think Obama is an arrogant, condescending jackass.
Any more stupid questions?
LOL... A PERFECT DESCRIPTION OF BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA.

Man you people are full of hate.....get a life. Don't worry President Obama will do all he can for you as well.Thats the kind of well meaning guy he is.
Walter12:31AMJul 6th 2008
This is a no brainer. If manners means being truthful the Obomination is a dead duck.....

This is another no brainer. McCain has that hands down....

I totally agree with the very small minority of people in here who see right through this nonsense of a "poll" question. As if we didn't already have enough distractions from corporate media to detract from the issues that matter most, AOL has to add fuel to the fire by asking this question to its "American Idol", and "Jerry Springer" audience. Okay, I'll play along. But, I insist on asking a few questions of my own just so that we can make this interesting. Ready? Here it goes...(continued)
BillRod13991:13AMJul 6th 2008
Which candidate is more likely to streak his draws because his arthritis leaves his wiping hand limp till about noon?
Which candidate is most likely to cherish and secretly keep a bobble-head doll of Bush tucked under his pillow as he kisses it gently on the lips wishing it a good night?
BillRod13991:13AMJul 6th 2008
Which candidate is more likely to suffer from "small -penis-syndrome" which may contribute to remedying this problem by substituting for more wars and imperialism by occupying other states?
Which candidate is more likely to not only choke on a pretzel, but to die from it as a result?
BillRod13991:13AMJul 6th 2008
Which candidate is more likely to pee his pants because of incontinence? Or, which candidate is more likely to wear "Depends"?
You see... I can do this all day, and in the end it really doesn't matter! But, just for the record when I saw McCain here in Florida, I asked him to give me a hand-job to which he politely offered..."only if it'll lead to a vote".
Walter1:25AMJul 6th 2008
BillRod, You are not only a Hand Job, you're a replica of the guests on the Jerry Springer. So you and the Obomination should get along very well jerking each other around.......

When a word rhymes with another one they end the same. Therefore the word McCain used would be c..t. The periods are intentional. Just add the missing letters from Graces comment rhymes with punt.

Well, Barack is married to Michelle who said to a reporter as she clawed the air with her fingernails: "I want to rip Bill Clinton's eyes out."
Imagine Michelle aka Aunt Esther as First Lady hostess at the White House serving tea to Spike Lee and Father Pfleger.
