It doesn’t matter, Democrat voters are idiots and fully capable of dismissing this.
My brother, the Democrat, told me over the weekend: “Democrats are for the working man, and are nice. Republicans are for the rich and are corrupt.”
How can you talk to people who think like that?

Very typical - Democrat machine, with public sector unions and Pro-Gov’t spending welfare types use their machine to bring out the vote, including the dead, homeless, or anyone else. No distinction made between getting paid on Gov’t time or Party-volunteer time.
We see it in spades in similar upstate cities here in NY and the Northeast.

But representatives of Mr. Obamas campaign in Ohio dismiss the idea that the events in Cuyahoga County will have any effect on the November election. They argue that Mr. Obama has built an effective organization in Ohio that does not need the county partys help.And we all saw firsthand just how effective that network was in the Ohio primaries a few months ago.

Ask him to explain it. What NICE thing has the Democrap party done for the working man? He won’t have an answer.
If he gives a specific, you can dismantle it.
Vague is hard to address and should not be attempted.

The big thing is that Cuyahoga County is always the county where democratic voting fraud tends to take place so by now them being watched perhaps they won’t be allowed?
To: Larry Sinclair
I read the title, but not the article ...
On that alone I say ...
If investigations of Dem leaders are a cause for worry ... it certainly isn't because the investigations would cast any bad light on the Dem party OR Obama.
No, as I see it ... the leaders were king pins in voter fraud and now Obama can't count on this county, and perhaps all of Ohio.
Based on the title.

Your brother got it partially right. If it is between corporate America and the rest of America, the Dems and GOP would side with corporate America. If it is between the poor and the middle class, the GOP will side with the middle class and the Dems would side with the poor.

Be sure to point out that if he has a job that pays above minimum wage, he's a member of the evil "rich" that the Dems want to tax at about 99%.

That is one way.
Or, just keep telling the bold truth and eventually it might sink in.
My Dad has voted “D” for many years now, and declared to
me recently that he was voting FOR McRINO (actually he is
voting AGAINST The Obamassiah).
Now, having said that ...
Should Kringtone happen to pull off a nomination STEAL from
Obama, he would definitely vote for her, unfortunately. :(

Go to Rush's site and print out the piece on who pays the taxes that run everything in this country. It should shut him up....or at least make him silent for a couple of seconds.

That’s it! Zachary!
The MSM (mainstream media) is ALWAYS FAST to point out
the PROFITS of “Big Oil” and the likes.
They ALWAYS “FORGET” to tell you how much of the $11 BILLION
that Exxon made goes to pay TAXES to tha gummint !!
Democraps are so STOOPID they think that they will PUNISH
the “Big Oil” companies with Obama’s proposed “Windfall
Profits Tax”. And in fact, it is the people at the pump
that would pay that tax in the form of HIGHER prices at
the pump since companies’ expenses are pass-through
expenses.

Another Freeper reminded me that "The National Enquirer" is owned and operated by Clintonistas.
Hillary's agents exposed Edwards for betraying her, and now that the magazine currently has recognition, they will shred Obama.

For those who didnt already know, Cuyahoga county is Ohios most populous county. Here are the results from 2000 and 2004.
2000:
Gore 359,913 (62.62%)
Bush 192,099 (33.42%)
2004:
Kerry 448,503 (66.57%)
Bush 221,600 (32.89%)
As you can see, the Democrats increased their total votes by 88,590 and their winning margin 51,188. Obamas goal will be to increase those totals even higher, since hell have even less appeal in Ohios rural areas in the southeast, central, and western parts of the state.

Thank you for allowing me

Has the population of that county increased or decreased? Is it like Philly that loses population every year but the number of voters increases?

First paragraph of CNN/Money article on Exxon profits: Exxon Mobil once again reported the largest quarterly profit in U.S. history Thursday, posting net income of $11.68 billion. on revenue of $138 billion in the second quarter.This was 27 paragraphs down in the article:
In addition to making hefty profits, Exxon also had a hefty tax bill. Worldwide, the company paid $10.5 billion in income taxes in the second quarter, $9.5 billion in sales taxes, and over $12 billion in what it called "other taxes."
And they were nice to mention this in the 12th paragraph:
Exxon spent $7 billion in the second quarter finding and producing more new oil, up 38% from last year. Still, oil and natural gas production from the company fell 8%.

From what I’ve read, Cleveland has lost 115,000 people since the 2000 census. As of that time, Cuyahoga county had approximately 1,393,000 people. The next biggest counties were Franklin (Columbus) at 1,068,000 and Hamilton (Cincinnati) at 845,000.
To: Larry Sinclair
They argue that Mr. Obama has built an effective organization in Ohio that does not need the county partys help.
"We've got our very own list of illegal voters," Obama campaign officials say. "We've got students coming in from other states to help us out and enough money to pay crack whores to vote O and dead people and everything. It's just like back home in Chicago!"
