We who have video cameras should bring our cameras with us to the polling places. Even if you voted early, please go to the polls with your cameras on ready on election day.

The more cameras, the better.

They’re justified b/c 0bama opponents are naturally racist, and racists should never be tolerated.

It sounds like the Obamacorns no longer trust the “polls” either. LOL!

It was irresponsible of Obama when he told his minions to “get in their face”. Inciting violence is criminal, isn’t it? Thugs.

The a milder version of the same event yesterday in Des Moines Iowa, inside and outside.
Inside the event, there were a couple of Obamaized high school kids running their mouths.
Myself and a few others finally had enough, and were working on getting them to leave. The police and SS finally came over, but the rally was over at that point and the kids left.

Don’t the anti-American people have their own campaign events to go to?

Why “confrontation” with Plain supporters?

Do they really think the Americans will back down?
