  • obama caught osama in 2 years the republicans had 8 years and they did not. obama 2012

  • @jamaicandonj1 That's like saying Bush planted the tulip bulbs, but they bloomed when Obama was in office. Who did the grunt work for 8 which allowed for Obama to found out where he was? The Bush administration. It was a duel accomplishment, and you can't ignore what the previous administration did.

  • OBAMA 2012! :D

  • I love this music, love hearing it every 2 years, it means its time to make history and redraw the political maps........

  • Ah, back when CNN still had some decent political reporting!

    If someone has a video of the New Hampshire primary intro (with all of the candidates, Democratic and Republican, pictured) I'd be in your debt!

  • obama 2012!

  • @jamaicandon2, HELL NO

  • This music reminds me of the 2000 election every time it came on there was yet another twist

  • Ron Paul 2012!!

  • @NYJared04 Yeah but neither as good as the UK. And we have socialism :),, Its great you can vote Labour (Left wing), Lib Dem (Left wing) or Tory (centre) there is no right wing option! :D

  • i look fwd to this music every 4 yrs

  • how can the republicans win when their demographic of uneducated old white people is dying out and the dems young people and minorities is growing? i might they might win some seats but over the long term they will continue to die out

  • yes, republicans can't win, like they didn't win in Mass.. shut up

  • Comment removed

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHa you cant be serious?

  • CNN still uses some variant of this for 'NewsRoom,' etc.

  • Where's the fucking link to the mp3?

  • This is good, but it's nowhere near as good as King Arthur (used by the BBC for the UK elections).

  • and then they replaced this with the crap they used this year.

  • Obama 2012

  • Bush suck!

  • oh this is the the song that was on recount

  • MSNBC's election coverage music was far superior to CNN's.

  • en español porfa

  • cnn always has great music. any chance of the themes used by larry king over the years, and ac360. thanks.

  • @PVJared LOL , i wonder what do you think now

  • What is the title of the music of the elections on CNN?

  • We have just moved Florida for George W. Bush, George W. Bush is the 43rd president of the United States!!! YESS!!! I love you GWB!!

    THANK GOD HE'S LEAVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • loooooooooossssssssseeeeeeeerr­rrrrrrrrrr

    how can you love a rascist son of a B*I*T*C*H

    Well canada is no differnet we have stephan ''robot''harper who is so rascist you know you stupid nazi get a life

  • Please stop making liberals look stupid.

  • George Bush just abondoned h is conservative principals, which in turn wrecked our economy, which in turn elected the worst candidtate americas ever picked because the dems picked the worst out of their field of candidates

    that in no way makes bush a racist

  • The notion that Bush wasn't a conservative is laughable. It's a complete scape goat that once the Republicans finally had the presidency and congress in full control they udderly failed. Conservatism has always been a failure as an ideal, it was just supported by moderates and liberals reigned in its most extreme elements. That went right out the window with Bush and friends.

  • a $700 bil bailout is not conservative, increasing the size of government is not conservative

    Socialism and liberalism are always utter failures. They only keep those principals to stay in power, because the people know if they vote in dems, the less responsibility they have, and the responsible and hardworking pay

    I mean, somone said they are gonna quit paying their payments for 3 months so they can get govt assistance. What happened to invdividual responsibility aka consevatism

  • "Someone" said that, real credible source. You're so full of your own shit it's ridiculous. Conservatives have ruined our economic credibility and run up the national debt. People vote in dems to save the country (Roosevelt, Obama) when conservatives fuck it up (Hoover, Bush). It will be another 20-30 years before this country trusts the Republican Party again, and it will have to come back in a drastically different form.

  • FDR's New Deal turned the Recession into a depression, his excuse for his whole time in office "Herbert Hoover". And The UCLA study of the new deal showed that all it did was artificially help the market and hurt the market from helping it self correct itself.

    You keep confusing conservatism and the republican party. Bush was not a true conservative.

    Smaller Govt., less taxes, individual responsibility, now thats conservatism, exactally the opposite of bush

  • I miss this music!

  • Watch lou dobbs tonight to hear it.

  • This is actually a very nice piece. With it's very authoritative and powerful presence, the music would have been absolutely perfect on election night. Why they didn't use it is beyond comprehension.

  • Senator Barack Obama is President of the United States.

  • Wow you guys are right on point. I used to watch the election with my father and this theme bring memories, why they went with the situation room crap they messed it up this time lol.

  • This is Wolf Blitzer...

    WHAT A NAME!!

  • PREPARE FOR THE WOLF!!! He looks like a wolf too when you look at him long enough. I mean the hair is perfect man.

  • i like nbc's better

  • Why CNN didn't use these theme is beyond me. It's absolutely perfect election and political music. Very presidential. Their new theme blows.

  • WTF!!! CNN's not using this music for the election, they're using their cheezy Situation Room music.

  • IT'S BACK!

    This is probably the only thing that could possibly add to the excitement of an Obama win.

  • CNN brought it back!!!!!!!!! Just heard it a few mins ago. election 2008 Barack Obama!!!!!!!

  • I'm going to be really sad if they don't use this music this year.

  • Looks like the one real crazy person is linked to McCain/Palin. His name is is George W. Bush!

    Go Obama/Biden -08

  • The only real crazy person is linked to McCain/Palin. His name is George W. Bush!

    Go Obama/Biden -08

  • Hurray for Wacko, Socialist, Anti Christ!

  • OBAMA/BIDEN!

  • Say No to McShame/Pain... Vote Obama/Biden!!!

  • Um, I don't think so.

    MCCAIN/PALIN '08!

  • MCCAIN!!

  • Obama 08

  • 08AMA!!!!!!!!!

    08AMAA!!!

  • I can't wait for Tuesday, when Obama is going to be the next great president of United State. Obama 08, PLEASE GET OUT AND VOTE ON NOV, EVEN IF YOU NOT GOING TO VOTE FOR OBAMA!!!

  • I don't think he's going to take Missouri

  • Obama is a slight favorite in Missouri.

    you can win Missouri by just winning KC and St louis. you can lose every other county in the state.

  • And we saw this happen back on Super Tuesday, when Obama won there and lost everywhere else!

  • why give a guy two thumbs down for stating an opinion. Its very possible he loses Missouri. The guy didnt say he doesnt like Obama. geese peopel.

  • Nov 4. 10pm EST

    CNN Calls it... OBAMA elected, takes FL, OH,MO

  • Oh how I love this music! It gives me chills because of the aura it brings with it around election time!

  • I like NBC's music better but this is pretty good.

  • Don't like CNN but good music

  • WOW! 1:33-1:39! Magnificent!

  • If they have this music, I'll switch between CNN and MSNBC.

  • love it

  • 0:11-1:23

    CNN PLEASE BRING IT BACK!

  • This music hypes me up for November as well.

    OBAMA/BIDEN '08!

    OBAMA/BIDEN '08!

  • This music hypes me up for November!!!

    Go OBAMA!!!!

  • I love this song

  • CNN if you watchin this...bring this type of election music back !!!!

  • I am also not a fan of cnn either i watch Msnbc now.The reason is cnn election covers sucks this year no good music. they have some weird type of music and fox news just plane out sucks

  • Not a fan of CNN's coverage anymore, but these songs do take me back... :)

  • Obama Biden 08

  • would be like the u.s. ran by fidel castro

  • Yes we can Obama 08 change is in the air can u smell it. im fired up lets go out to the polls and vote Obama

  • The democratic party is falling behind lil wayne.

    As lil Wayne released the Carter 3,

    The dems are nominating the Carter 2, as in jimmy carter the 2nd

    Obama, Nope, Hell No you wont

    John He will

  • McCain=Bush's 3rd term

  • Why should I vote for a socialist when my family has done welll with the Bush tax cuts.

    The Bush economy is good for those who dont buy things they cant afford and dont use credit cards for everything

    And Obama want to take my money and buy those unreliable people in debt out of debt, WITH MY MONEY I EARNED!!!!

    NOBAMA 08!

  • Bush's economy sucks. Apparently you are the only one who ain't suffering. Probably an oil executive.

  • nope, my dad's a fireman, and i work on a farm son

  • Most Americans are suffering, if you can't see that then you need help.

  • Look, I live in Kentucky.

    Americans are suffering because of themselves, not the government.

    If Obama and the Dems bail them out, that just takes the whole point of personal responsibility away. I have no sympathy for people who spent there way into debt and have taken out countless mortgages and loans, I told my friends they were dumbasses, and im the one who was smart and have saved and gotten everything paid for.

    And if you want to talk gas suffering. Drill here, drill now, Pay less

  • 5% of Americans are "suffering" if you want to call it that - that's far less than a majority - and not because of themselves, because of government not allowing companies to drill for our own oil, keeping prices higher (a long held goal of the Democrats to restrict liberty and control how and where they travel and where they live) and damaging the economy. The more prosperity there is the less dependence there is on government, which weakens Democrats.

  • Most Americans are not suffering. You are full of baloney.

  • You are so out of touch.

  • and why should any honest hard-working american vote for a socialist?

  • No he doesn't! He wants to take your hard earned money and pay off the debt that Bush has created while giving long term tax breaks to a richie rich like you! It's time that you rich people started paying your fair share of taxes. My father is a mechanical worker and has been totally screwed by Bush and his Republican thugs in order to satisfy the rich!

  • just because my bill are paid off and i dont buy things i cant afford doesnt make me a richie rich

    In the long run ill be well off, but I pay my bills, and the economy doesnt affect me, and I dont want my money going to pay off the morons who knew good and well they couldnt buy a house, but bought it anyway and now are getting kicked out.

  • Well I don't want your money to go to those kinds of people either. All I want is for the rich to pay their fare share of taxes that the middle and working class have to pay. They get so many tax breaks! I see that you said your Dad is a fireman and you work on a farm. So why the hek do you support the Republicans? They don't support working class folks like you. You know where I don't want my hard earned tax moeny going to? Halliburton's pockets!

  • I am a Repub because I believe in Conservatism. I dont believe in high taxes.My money should not go to pay off the national debt. And im strongly against universal heaalthcare.

    And if you would look into math, since Bush came to power, the top %1 of earners pay 40% of taxes, which is way higher than the Clinton years, under Bush the poverty rate has decreased.

    Bush and the whole US govt screwed up on the war, but we cant hide the mistake we made so we should finish the job

  • and to finish my statement, im a Conservative first, not a Republican

    I liked Dems, but they are too liberal, and Barack is too socialist

  • Well Congress for the last eight years has been anything but conservative. We have a record amount of debt which has been created under Bush, and we owe so much to China. Those stimulus checks that we all got, came from China. So as many conservatives advertise Dems as tax and spend, many in the GOP are borrow and spend. Last thing, if you don't believe that your money should go to paying off the debt, who should pay it? Where do you want your money to go?

  • I really cant be a fair judge of the current administration until it ends. 9/11 and the iraq war put Bush's intentions on hold, so ill never know what he was gonna do.

    We are in debt to China, yes, the whole governments fault, yes.

    But what Bush has done is create a personal responsibility system, which is what I believe in, so im responsible for myself, and in the long run it will pay off for me.

  • the tax cuts given to the rich are a pimple on an elephants ass. The most expensive tax breaks are for people who make $50,000 or less because that's the relative income level of most americans. Why don't you read the data before you write??

  • WAAAAH! People aren't supporting the Republican! WAAAH!

    Shut up, people hate the RepubliCONs now.

  • yea cuz they went away from beign conservative

    just goes to show fiscal responsibility and conservatism lives

  • lol, that's why a democrat won. because people believe in fiscal conservatism. XD

    "A conservative is a man with two perfect good legs who has never learned to walk forward."

    -FDR

  • uhm, doubling the size of government, and billion dollar bailouts isnt conservative, cough Bush

    And Obama was elected by lying i mean convincing people he is a moderate tax-cutter

    so lets see, they voted for tax cuts

  • RON PAUL was the real republican.

  • Kefkafox , and avidviewer.

    A liberal is a man with a brain but wastes it on stupid ity.

  • @KitFistoPwns

    I'm a German liberal, and we're part of the German federal government and of the governments of more than half of the German states. Liberalism can't be so stupid as you think: Germany's unemployment rate is much lower then the US. Our Med Care systems are working. The whole republic is working as usual, also in crisis.

  • @vulcan9292 Currently it manages to be lower - but most of the time it is considerably higher on average, so your point is quite moot (and incorrect) - even more so by the fact our problems are currently being caused by becoming more like your system of government, and you are doing better as the more conservative party has now been governing for some time.

  • yes we can cnn better play this in november

  • has anyone seen the hbo movie recount? i want to know the music played right after the lady says "we're gonna need a lawyer" as the cnn truck pulls up

  • It was this election cnn theme...back in the day when they used it.

    Today the CNN election theme sounds like a box of silver wear falling down stairs.

  • u sure? this theme i'm listening to now is the one hbo used after she said that? doesn't sound too much like it

  • I wanna hear this music on TV already

  • John, Do you need to express offensive language? You must be 1) An young immature boy , 2) Uneducated and unable to express yourself on an intellectual level or 3)an abnormal deranged individual who immediately needs counseling. Also, commenting on so called "rednecks" is a bigoted response. If I was a liberal I probably would report you to the police on violation of "hate speech". Fortunately for you I believe in the first amendment.

  • CNN never has shown any liberal bias! HA!

  • shut the fuck up. Just because it isn't as redneck conservative as Fox doesn't mean its liberal. You fucking Republicans never stop whining about anything

  • John, Do you need to express offensive language?

  • this is obama no 1 song please click on vicegrip88 to see the video

  • Obama 2008!

  • I hope CNN brings this music back for November. Like I expect to see white smoke coming out of the Vatican when we elect a new Pope, I also expect to hear the first 20 seconds of this video when CNN is ready to project Obama or McCain with the 270 electoral votes needed to become President. It has all the emotion I crave in Election Night music.

  • I agree perfectly.

  • obama 08

  • McCain 08

  • Vote for Bush!

  • In all honestly I have switched to MSNBC because CNN stopped using this theme. The new theme CNN has is depressing and lame and all my news junkie friends agree.

    WAKE UP CNN AND BRING IT BACK!

  • LOL. You switched news networks because of a little music you hear at the beginning? umm...okay than. But I try to watch both, I usually switch back and fourth.

  • Wow. I did the exact same thing.

    I'm hoping the current motif is just for primary season.

  • Fox has the best election music this year

  • Though, I did like the You Decide Music theme better.

  • Vote for change, Vote for Obama!

  • Obama goes out!

  • cnn needs to play this in 08 go obama go

  • From Free America ... Obama 2008!!!

  • best election music ever

  • Amazing song.. McCain 2008 !

  • this is the music of a genius. i love it.

  • I just emailed them!

  • Yeah they have done it that way since 04 when they went to wall street and had the huge screen there.....

    I miss the old projections :(

  • The new theme sucks, and I hate how CNN doesn't have a graphic showing the winner, but they show Wolf Blitzer standing next to a screen you can barely read showing the winner. Not to mention that Wolf Blitzer sucks.

    Way to go CNN; I'm watching MSNBC's coverage of the election.
