Voting issues in both Ohio and Texas
The Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama campaigns are tussling not just over the contests in Ohio and Texas -- but also how the vote is being conducted.
The Clinton camp is accusing Obama supporters of intimidating its supporters at caucus sites in Texas, where the caucuses will determine about one-third of the 193 delegates up for grabs. The issue is that because the Democratic party didn't have enough staffers to run all the caucus sites, whoever showed up first and obtained the packet was in charge. Clinton supporters are complaining that Obama backers took the packets before the caucus sites officially opened.
In Ohio, the Obama campaign is seeking to keep polling places open past the appointed hour because of weather problems and polling places running out of ballots. A judge has ordered precincts to stay open until 9 p.m. in Sandusky and Cuyahoga counties near Cleveland, but the Obama campaign is seeking a similar order in Franklin County, home to the state capital of Columbus.



Fellow Christians, we will let the liberals have their way this time and we will see them fail. Then we can finally vote them out for good, and get a true Christian into the White House (not a pseudo one like Romney) and we will win Congress and we can finally outlaw homosexuality and abortion as God intended. True Christians, it is your duty to fight the homo agenda and the killing of millions of innocents. Our troubles in the U.S. our faltering economy, our natural disasters, our dead solders, can be traced to our moral failings as a nation. God is not happy. We will not be blessed until we unite as Christians and take control. 95 percent of this country is Christian. When we all wake up we will succeed as a nation. We will stamp out homos and make Muslims think twice. It's inevitable. Liberal freaks Obama or McCain will be president and God will show his anger for four years. We will be attacked on our soil. We will have great disasters in our cities. Our economy will dip to new lows. But four years from now when we MUST take back this country to conservative values, we will see who is right. God will reward us fellow Christians! Stay strong. Ask me about my dead son, indeed!
Hey Bob, I'm a Christian, the only true Christian I know of is Jesus Christ. Jesus is not running for election. Your post is either a joke, or you need to tell me where you're at, so I can send the guys with the butterfly nets to come get you, you're deranged. I didn't vote for Barrack Hussein Obama, I voted & caucused for Hillary.
I was in line 3 hours after the polls closed, waiting my turn. I talked to mainly Obama supporters, some Hillary, but what we talked about was why we were voting the way we were. Nobody was mad, I'm not intimidating, but I'm not easily intimidated, I feel realy good about what I participated in.
Um, hasn't what you are talking about already happened, Bob? Attacked on our own soil, economy collapse, distaster in the cities (Katrina, anyone?). All during Bush's Christian, conservative, gay and abortion hating presidency...
Didn't God say "You shall not kill" and "Love thy neighbor"? What kind of Christian tries to outguess his God by picking and choosing which Commandments to follow?
While I didn't lose anyone close in Iraq, one of my democrat family members and one of my liberal close friends both lost sons there. Why does this make you support the people who sent them there, while they themselves nor their families never served?
Bob Kraut....you are an idiot !! Why dont you run for president, if you are in search of this perfect Christian? LOL Doesnt the Bible say " Judge Not Lest You Be Judged" ? I believe it does !! If God is not happy, It is for many reasons !! Wow and you have psychic powers to know all this information from the future, isnt that also a sin? It is for sure that America is in trouble, we have many problems to embrace, such as disease, homelessness, crime, the economy, but I am sorry I do not see all this as the wrath of God. I am a christian and I am very unhappy about prayer being taken out of schools, and I get ill when I see transvite parades, where they flaunt their homosexuality. But as long as they keep their swishy butts at home, it is none of my business...or yours !!
Whoa, amazing how some people's minds work - or don't as in Bob's instance
Thank you Bob. You have eloquently made the case for the Democratic Party this year and in the future. one simple uttering from you does more to chase people away from the hate mongering hypocritical pseudo-religious right wing than tomes of learned discourse from either Clinton or Obama. if you were muslim i'm sure you would be an al-Qaida leader. in my mind you are cut from the same bolt of cloth. keep up the good work.
