Michelle Obama coming to N.H.

I wonder if she will state "for the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country"?

Poster #1, it's funny how what was meant to be a compliment of how proud she WAS of this country, it got twisted into something negative.

I'll tell you what's REALLY negative, since the candidate's spouses are apparantly fair game. How about Palin's husband, who belonged-- for SEVEN YEARS-- to an organization promoting the secession of Alaska from the United States...complete wiht all kinds of derogatory and negative commentary about this country.

Where is the outrage there?

This is racism, pure and simple. If anyone has a right to comment on how she's been treated in the country, it's a woman like Michelle Obama. Her comments were POSITIVE, yet were turned against her.

Let's look into First Dude's affiliations with this Secede from the United States thing, shall we? Let McCain and Palin explain THAT away.

Good thing there aren't any "gun and bible clutching" voters left in NH. It used to be that way but no longer. Now southern NH is just a bedroom community of Boston, middle NH is just full of super expensive summer homes of rich Boston suburbanites, and northern NH is desolated by lack of jobs thanks to the Democrats' NAFTA Agreement (Bill Clinton's idea, remember?).

Thanks again Barney Frank and Chris Dodd for ruining our economy by fighting every single reform attempt to fix Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. You're backpedaling now but you really stuck it to us.

Cant stand her. Does she also have Muslim heritage? Seems so with her lack of love for America. Go Mac......

Funny how some people can take pride in things this country has done at all in the last 20 years. For some people having pride in your country means something and not just given. Love of country does not mean you are always proud of it. Pride is earned, like respect, not a given. Maybe you should check your own values before you disrespect someone elses.

I wonder if republicans realize that their attacks aren't working in this election. Americans want solutions, not fighting, that's why the majority is voting for Obama..

Posted by Matt Talvi,
Todd Palin's association with AIP was in broad support of his home state and states rights in general. I would characterize that as a somewhat of a noble cause of which may be outdated in once what wasa a very isolated and independent state.
What I question is Obama relationship with William Ayers who played an intermental role in Obama's "coming out" as a political animal.
Now remember, we are comparing a VP candidates' husband to a presidental candidate and passive relic of a state organization with a violent radical activist.

Matthew -

Obama's solution to the greatest financial debacle this country has seen in eons was "just call me if you need me" ......(because I'm waaaaay too busy stroking my ego by running for president).

Sounds like FANTASTIC Leadership abilities to me.....not.

Hey Beenthere-Donethat, do a little more homework before you respond foolishly. There's more to that secession thing than benign state's rights nonsense. Are you familiar with the rhetoric some of the major players in that movement have spouted?

Michelle Obama says she's a PROUD American. Todd Palin wants to break away from America.

Maybe in your distorted right wing universe, this is ok. To me, however, this seems quite UN-patriotic.

NH isn't free of racism yet. I put an Obama sign on my car and someone tried to hit me while I was on foot in a parking lot (the gunned engine was the clue). My Obama signs have been stolen (all three of them), and I've had rocks thrown at my windshield. I placed a small sign at the end of my driveway and suddenly my neighbors dogs all had to do their business in my driveway at once (enough to use a shovel - so it's not just one dog). I can't wait for the election to be over. I'm beginning to feel unsafe, but I believe that if we find a person worthy of being a candidate, then we should give him or her the chance!

Mrs. H, #10: It's unfortunate that your Obama signs have been stolen and dogs doo-doo in your driveway. I am not affiliated with either party, but in my Boston neighborhood, their is a single John McCain supporter and he actually had to move his sign way to the back of his land, where it is hardly visible. So it happens all around. It doesn't necessarily mean that its racism because 90% of all the people on my street are white. Would you say it's racism since all the signs in the predominantly black neighborhood with Obama signs and not one of McCain?When 98% of blacks are voting for Obama regardless of party its racism.
