Being Pro-Choice does not make you Pro-Abortion. Read a book and stop making accusations that are not true.

Just because you think it's wrong does not mean everyone thinks it wrong. Get over yourself.

I have an idea. How about everyone stop making up lies!!!! Taxes will go up no more under Obama than under McCain, Unless your wealthy, and if you are, tough, you can afford it!!!!

Second of all, I do not care if Obama is Black, White, Hispanic, or anything else. Our people, your friends, relatives, and co-workers have elected him with the popular vote and the electoral college! He is our president and soon to be a great one. I truely beleive that he has the people of this nation in his mind and heart! IT IS TIME FOR CHANGE!!!

If you are stuck on race. Get over it!
If you are stuck in your party. Get over it!
If you are stuck in religion. Get over it!

And finally, if you are threatening to move to Canada over a presidential election (no matter what your reason may be). Just shut up and go. You obviously do not hold American Ideals nor do you have faith in your countrymen who elected him. Do us all the favor! Good bye!

Obama is not even black. He is not the first African American president, he is the 1st Bi Racial president. He was born of a african american father and a white mother.

What about what MLK said "not be judged by the color of their skin but the content of their character." Nothing about Obama's stand on the moral issues has impressed me.

I was tempted to vote for Ralph Nader. Bless his heart- his name has been on every presidential ballot for the past several elections.

I agree with you. One state only had 5% of the votes in and the electorial votes were already cast. I really don't think that the popular votes count for anything. I think that the electorial votes are cast however they see fit .

Lets all just thank God that our new president can't do a whole lot without congress and the senate. Lets all pray that congress and the senate have more moral values. We need to start flooding our congressmen, senators and representatives NOW. We need to stop worrying so much about what MADONNA, BRITTANY SPEARS & other celebs are doing and start paying more attention to what our government is doing. Remember, we all ignored Madeline Murray O'Hare and thought she was a flake, but our children can not pray in school.

I'm stunned that despite the fact that this man is pro-abortion, pro-homosexuality & legalizing prostitution that this many people still voted for him. What does this say about the morality of our country? Skin color has nothing to do with this. WRONG IS WRONG.

Now that Obama has won Americans need to get their heads out of the sand, stop hating each other and focus on how to work together for a better America. The days of the 50s and 60s are over lets come together as one people, one land, and one president whom we support and respect. Even if you don't respect him you have to allow him a chance to do his job the best he knows how.

From Exit polling. They ask people as they are coming out who they are etc. Then use that sample to estimate the overall vote.

Stupid question but how is it possible for analysts to predict a percentage of white and black votes when no where on the ballot did it ask my race, nor was my name on the ballot?

We need to make sure to get the vote out. We cannot have Obama in office, him and his black panther friends will ruin our country.

Anyone fed up with political phone calls and people knocking on your door

I was getting so many phone calls to the point it was annoying and I ended up taking the phone of the hook so I could get some work done as I operate a small business out of my home. Not to mention two visits to my door in the middle of a busy work day.

The straw that broke the camels back when I go to the store and a stranger comes up to me and asks if I voted for Obama.

I didn't appreciate one bit having Obama supporters invade my personal space an time.

Needless to say Obama lost my vote thanks to his pushy tactics
