Obama launches nationwide voter drive

The Obama campaign is planning a national voter registration drive it boasts will be most aggressive in history.

In Florida, the effort gets under way May with locations in Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Palm Beach County, Ft. Myers, Sarasota, Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, Tallahassee and Pensacola.

Comments

I dislike both Obama and Clinton and, sadly, the Florida Legislature is pretty much insuring an anti-Republican backlash in Florida. Let's see who haven't they hurt (they've hurt children, the elderly, the middle class, the working poor, small business, homeowners, and taxpayers) - oh, yes, they've made CSX, St. Joe Paper Company, and Rubio's friends happy.

Remember this November!

Barack Obama is a racist just like Jeremiah Wright. No amount of voter drive will get him elected. He is not electable.

We love you President Obama!

Barack Obama's new polling in Indiana & North Carolina show he is in freefall mode. This ship has sunk and it's Obama's own fault.
With the 1)"bittergate comment scandel", 2) lack of judgement for staying in Rev. Wright's hatred spewed church 3) saying "typical white person", 4)associating & friendly with admitted terrorist Bill Ayers, 5) Michelle Obama's comment on first time proud to be American

All these things put together show that Barack Obama would be a terrible candidate for President.

I know I would never vote for him even if he was the last democrat or republican on earth. I think America is ready for an African-American President, just not this one.

I think President Obama would be great for this country. The Republicans are obviously afraid of him, because he, more than any other candidate, promises to put an end to their warmongering, their corporate welfare, and their economic and social policies which enrich the wealthy and threaten America's middle class.

How ironic is it, that with their "swiftboat lite", the Republicans are trying to hang a label of racist on a bi-racial man, and trying to paint him as not being in favor of the middle class, when his policies would benefit them the most?

Let's forget the awful results of the last time people believed the lies of the GOP, when they portrayed a decorated combat veteran as less patriotic than an AWOL drunken frat boy. Our country got 4 more years of THE WORST PRESIDENT EVER.

Instead of listening to the spin, use common sense. We need an absolute reversal of the disaster of Bush II and his totalitarian elitist policies, and Obama has promised to deliver.

I think America is ready for a president who cares about the needs of the majority of US citizens, rather than just the wealthy few. African-American or not, Obama's the one.

OBAMA/BIDEN '08!

WHAT!... a "nationwide voter drive"? With gas prices and gay t-bagging... errr... global warming the way it is?

What are you thinking?

Obama is doesn't practice the politics of old...except that he picked a church to appeal to the black demographic in Chicagio to help get elected to the State Senate, stayed with the church and their Black Liberation Theology and ant-american pastor to secure his base for his US Senate run, still stayed associated with this pastor and group as he ran for President so he wouldn't alienate the black church vote even though his pastor was publicly exposed (and privatly sidelined by the Obama campaign because they knew it would damage them), and finally, he was forced to break ties with the pastor because he because a political liability too big to ignore. Wait a minute. He certainly sounds like every other politician I know. Hypocrite.

ps. Maybe the Dems should stop assuming the Republicans are scared of this guy and face the facts that he's just a bad, bad, candidate...and I'm a Democrat myself who hates the Clintons

Good op-ed piece on how much Obama knew about Wright's hate spews.

What? Obama is launching a voter drive in Florida!?!

He said it was OK for the DNC to void votes. Now he says the votes can't be "reinstated" unless he gets to say how they were cast.

He agreed with all the other candidates to shun Florida voters and now he says because he didn't campaign here, the votes can't be counted.

Obama organizing a voter registration drive in Florida is like Hitler organizing a Temple in Auschwitz.
