Liberal/leftist MSM is pushing their excuses why Obama will lose in November.
Of course, Obama's loss has nothing to do with his leftist political views, his leftist political friends, and his thin resume of experiences that MSM will not look into.

One big reason Barack Obama is locked in a tight race, rather than easily outdistancing his opponent, is because he is a Marxist.

Little discussed? It’s always discussed! And it’s always discussed and brought up by him or his race card throwing supporters.

Next are the race riots.

And when The One goes down in flames November 4th it is going to be said that he lost because he's black and that American is racist.
It couldn't have had anything to do with he's a flaming liberal empty suite with zero experience running anything other than his perpetual campaign of self promotion.

Union organizers in the key state of Michigan complain in the press that, as one puts it, "we're all struggling to some extent with the problem of white workers who will not vote for Obama because of his color." And why do "union organizers" care how workers vote in the Presidential election? (/s)

Nor am I seeking to insult those who object to Obama purely on the issues. No, Dick, you are merely proactively insulting everyone who will vote for anyone other than Obama/Biden for any reason whatsoever.

I can’t stand Obama and it has nothing to do with how dark or light his skin is. We think he is the ANTI CHRIST

To: Presbyterian Reporter
But if Obama winds up losing after having posted a seemingly solid polling lead on election eve, And he may win for the exact same reason; the color of his skin.
That voting demographic is just as shallow and narrow minded as those who would not vote for him because he's black................errr, half black.

Ive been saying this all along. The supreme irony is that it’s the white racist Democrats that won’t support him!!
To: Presbyterian Reporter
"I'm not suggesting that racism would be the sole explanation for an Obama loss. Nor am I seeking to insult those who object to Obama purely on the issues."Horsecrap.
When Obama loses the election (provided dead voters don't win it for him) the charge of RACISM will be heard far and wide. The good news is that the vast majority of voters will know better.

Actually, it’s because he’s an idiot. Has anybody heard him talk? He stumbles and grunts and he clearly has no idea what he’s talking about (on any subject, including himself). I’d be surprised if anybody in their right mind votes for him.

Even if Obama is black, and he’s no son of the ghetto by any means, I’m still not going to vote for him. I have the right to measure Obama by the same standards I would measure ANY Presidential candidate.

To: Presbyterian Reporter
For what it’s worth (probably nothing)Obama IS half caucasian. How come that doesn’t come in to play? It seems his life experience hasn’t really included anything which speaks to an Afro-American in the USA.
But, because he looks more black than white he has all the blacks in the USA beating his drum.

Frankly, I'm getting a little fed up with these pinheads playing the race card.
I notice with interest that this nitwit forgot to mention the numerous examples of Blacks who will vote for him, simply BECAUSE he's Black.

Race is an issueNot exactly. Racism is an issue, as in Michelle's clear "hate Whitey" attitude, the Wright church, Obama's frequent playing of the race-card guilt trip, and so on.
To: Presbyterian Reporter
"
... And racist sentiment rarely shows up in the polls, because a lot of people don't want to share their baser instincts with the pollsters; they'll save that instead for the privacy of the voting booth ..."
And there you have it.
Should I vote for Palin/McCain I am a racist.
If I wasn't a racist before this election, I will be after it.
