According to the FBI website, the FBI does investigate election fraud including illegal contributions:
Sorry to point this out, but people have been buying elections for a long time now. Notice that you don’t see too many poor or middle class people running for national office.
Hmmmm, I guess you have to turn on the TV to see them. I listen to a little radio, but have not heard any political "approved by" commericals.
Since when does a commercial make you do something you normally don't do anyway?

Very few people these days are willing to admit they might have been wrong. As I bitterly cling to my religion and guns they bitterly cling to their preconceived ideas and opinions. They cannot bring themselves to admit they were wrong to back Obama and no amount of truth and logic is going to change them. If McCain is to win the margin will have to come from the Independents and undecided.
I get both NYC and Philadelphia media, being in Central New Jersey. I see four Obama ads on TV for every McCain ad.
I think people are getting sick of this election and starting to get very sick of Lord Obama. They novelty is fading and the incessant barrage of Lord Obama ads are getting irritating.
The ads won’t affect the voting patterns of either base, but they might affect independents. These are people who may vote for silly reasons. Many voted for Perot twice, giving Clinton two elections he could not have won on his own, despite running against lame opposition from the GOP.
Independent votes can swing from one candidate to another for rather silly reasons. Getting sick and tired of Lord Obama might be enough. Growing awareness that electing Lord Obama will give the socialist democrats a legislative trifecta might also come into play. I think independents rather like divided government for its checks and balances.
The Lord Obama’s excessive, aggressive, obnoxious media spending might very well result in a small voter backlash. Is it enough to help overcome the current lead and voter fraud? We’ll see.
Hopefully, the libs will be so overconfident that election day will result in many staying home because they have more important things to do. After all, they figure, it’s already in the bag for the Lord Obama.
Hopefully, conservatives will be so distraught about the likelihood of Lord Obama ruling the country that they’ll make extra effort to turn out and vote straight party if they cannot stomach voting directly for McCain.
This election is “historic” not because a candidate is black, but because it could mark the end of the American dream and total socialist control of the United States.
Probably was. She has a double-wide ass.
There are ads everywhere, even here in Texas. My guess is that he’s trying to ensure that he has over 50% of the national popular vote. That way he can claim a mandate for “change” if he wins. Worst case scenario: he loses the electoral college, but wins 51% of the popular vote. His ACORN minions take to the streets for a two month long rampage....
Three words: “Lock and load1”
Exactly. But that is not only 0bama. It is also the liberals period and anyone who believes that the democRats are better for the economy then the Republicans needs his or her head examined. All you have to do is take a look at what happened to the economy since the Rats have taken over. It is them who have sunk it and will even sink it more if they get a filibuster save Congress
Well, not exactly. They have been trying to buy elections, but most the time don’t have any luck
At some point saturation advertising actually annoys the consumer (or in this case the voter). I swore off buying Dodge because for years I couldn’t watch a sporting event on TV without seeing a dozen Dodge commercials (well really 3 Dodge commercials 4 times each). Of late I’m annoyed at Toyota for their Zero the Hero campaign, partly because the songs sucks but also because they’re putting it in every commercial break. Obama is hitting pretty close to that saturation level, which is a good thing probably.
Actually, Obama’s backers...foreign powers, America’s enemies are buying the Presidency. All illegal, but the voters don’t know or are too dumb to care.
