NASHUA, N.H. -- Barack Obama's war on old-fashioned party politics continues.
Instead of the conventional election-night party in a hotel ballroom, the Illinois senator is inviting supporters to join him tonight at a rally at Nashua High School South.
Because the event is to be held at a school, attendees will have to do without the great political unifier that brings together Republicans and Democrats, winners and losers.
"There won't be any alcohol, except if you sneak some in," an Obama staffer advised a reporter.
Oh good, let's suggest folks sneak some in... just what I would expect from a juvenile.... How old was this staffer?
I think it was a joke, Patti. Lighten up. Thats what Obama's campaign is really about-- being a real person, and not an uptight robot-politician.
How old is Ted Kennedy?
It’s because the majority of his supporters are not old enough to drink. In fact after seeing many of them canvassing my neighborhood…I’m not sure I want them deciding who the next president will be. If Obama get the nod, it will be a republican…GUARRANTEED!!
From Germany its funny to see what happens in the US pre-election
these days. Hillary lookes a little bit groggy in TV
Haha, Jochen, I studied in Heidelberg and was there during the 2004 election - watching election night on German TV, from the German point of view was very interesting as well!
Hey Patti it's called humor

Fom Florida, its funny how in this Country you are brought up to respect but chase the Rabbit with conviction. Then if it looks like you have a chance, the establishment would rather shoot the rabbit rather than let an outsider get to close to the prize.
A lot needs to change and I pray the message sticks for the good of all Americans.

Haha, Zainab, I studied in Dusseldorf and was there during the 2004 election!!!!!!!
When the phone rings at three in the morning will the person answering it have the experience to make the right decision.
3:00Am in the White house, "This is Rowanda calling, they are killing us , please help".
Answer: "It is not in the interest of the US Government to get involved".
(Wrong decision)
3: Am in the White house, The rebels here in Samolia are kicking Butt, what should we do Comander in Cheif? Pull out! Pull out! he said.
(Wrong Decision)
As first Lady Hillary spoke to the dignitaries of both Countries. ( Just Words)
Hope is not a joke, there are millions who have only that to live for. Let us Independent Americans show we can be a beacon again.
Let's help Obama lite the Lamp and send the Boogie Man home forever.
