mystiqal7 ::: Favorites Of all the politicians you ever voted for, which of them shared your exact view? There are millions of people in the US and all of us have differences. It is simply not realistic to think Barack is going to be able to accomodate the needs of millions(Only God can do that). My Savior is Christ not Barack. Barack will be my President in '08. 07-07-25 12:48:05 _____________________________________________________
HoneysuckleBing ::: Favorites okey we have Bush... Seriously?! can it get any more badly? Obama'08! because he's the best choice there is. 07-07-25 13:11:49 _____________________________________________________
Diligent25 ::: Favorites First of all you dont know what you are talking about. A senator is basically a representative from a state in Congress. He votes on National and International issues concerning the country. He is not the governor of Illinois. If you have a problem with all that you have stated, YOU NEED TO LOOK AT THE GOVERNOR AND THE STATES ON CONGRESS ......it;s ot Obama's fault. He does not run this state...DUMMY! 07-07-25 15:19:07 _____________________________________________________
lawtek711 ::: Favorites Ok, lets look at a statement that Obama made to The Dailey Herald 3 years ago: Obama and Blagojevich stated that they would not allow NICOR gas to raise their rates. However, when "push came to shove" neither did what they said they would. If Obama never planned on making a stand or if he were unable to make a stand, he never should have promised that he would. I am tired of politicians, such as Obama, making empty promises or telling the public what they want to hear. 07-07-25 15:35:41 _____________________________________________________
lawtek711 ::: Favorites While Obama does not run the state of Illinois, he has a vested interest in the state it's self. If we are to make a change in this country, we must demand more of our elected officials. I now pose this question: what has Obama done for Illinois? 07-07-25 15:38:58 _____________________________________________________
michaela1800 ::: Favorites I agree with Obama. He is intelligent enough to realize there should be a change in the system in order to create new jobs for those in poverty. 07-07-26 15:23:22 _____________________________________________________

Diligent25 ::: Favorites WHAT HAS OUR GOVERNOR DID FOR ILLINOIS! If you dont like Obama then fine....dont like him. But dont blame issues that are not completely under his control on him. Then you have the nerve to let the governor and mayors get off scott free. You are really dumb or just ignorant. 07-07-27 13:42:15 _____________________________________________________
