  • k u never vote based on race. thats not only stupid but it leads to this a gov that is fkin everyone and u cant do anything because he SAID hed fk us but u only cared that he was black...

  • Umm - last time I checked, Obama hadn't said a WORD about helping blacks or whites. He is trying to make people forget about his race. I would support Obama if he agreed with me. Race is NOT an issue in the Presidential campaign for me (I'm Caucasian-American = white) and I have no problem voting for a black president.

  • I would think the issue on the table should be if he went with Public Funding after he couldn't raise donations.

  • Money is not the root of all evil. Who is at the root of all money? Money is just green paper, it's the value we place on money that makes it "evil."

  • That black guy is a fool how can he support McCain. McCain aint gonna do anything for black and EVERYBODY knows it, except that black fool who is supporting him!!

  • Money is the root of all evil

  • No flip-floppin', just a great decision based on reality. Past elections have demostrated that you cannot be soft when competing with the GOP, negative campaigning at the local level has started already and Obama needs money to compete, to be able to fight back. This is great news, Obama is going to give them hell.

    Obama/Webb 2008/2012

  • I would say it was a very smart move. One of the reasons why Dukakis, Gore and Kerry lost their respective elections is because they did not fight back the Republicans dirty politics, false rumors, smear tactics, and negatie ads. Obama has to fight back and give them hell and he will need a lot of money to do this, he cannot afford to be soft on Republicans, he has to hit them hard, aim ankles, knock'em down, and debunk every lie they put outthere as soon as possible. You need money for that.
