  It's looking to be a close race. It would be nice if you could host a poll on your site to see what readers of your site are thinking. (Some unscientific sampling would make it interesting). Heck!, scientific sampling did not seem to do any better in New Hampshire so why not.
  Here's some more unscientific sampling data.

  It'd be really nice if you could even research the candidates your going to support and look at the facts, like Obama being a puppet of the CFR and whistler for a North American Union.
  
  Check the facts, vote real change. Vote Ron Paul.

  Another california voter for Obama
  
  The man has actually made my family closer. My father voted for Bush, twice, much to the horror of my mother, sisters, and brother. I've been voting libertarian for years, and my sisters and mother voted for a Democrat in each of the last 4 elections.
  
  Now, the entire family has found someone that really inspires them. Never, ever, thought it would happen or that Dad would EVER support someone who might raise his taxes :)

  I made this little lawn sign which floats in the bottom-right corner of my blog, with a link to my 'Why Obama' statement.

  Dave, I'm finding it impossible to email the OBEY guys about the poster (as they specify in the post). Any chance you could either pass along my info or get a status update from them?
  
  That out of the way - man, I am with you on this 100%.

  Glad you endorsed. Stunning portrait.
  
  I wonder why the designer chose "progress" as the tag line for the poster. That's not part of Obama's campaign lexicon. It's not on his official posters. He didn't use the word a single time in the Iowa speech or the South Carolina speech or even the keynote of the 2004 Democratic convention that brought him to national prominence. Obama words are "believe," "change," and "hope." "Progress" is a Salieri word. Not a Mozart word.

  I prefer the original. It is really simple, Obama represents progress to many Obama supporters. Hacking the original is like putting lipstick on the Mona Lisa, it's really not necessary.

  Hi Jim
  
  Many paths up the mountain.
  
  I'd aver that hacking the original is like playing a cover of a song on an album as opposed to an original.
  
  My own thought would be to have a cycling set of images, differing only in the phrasing, so as to send a number of powerful messages.
  
  Obama is an excellent writer, and he employs excellent writers. Their catchphrases are each useful and important.
  
  One of the few areas where Mitt Romney agrees. He's paraphrasing two or three Obama catchphrases in his most recent speeches.

  I applaud your efforts to get Politically Involved ! It is easy to be a Starbucks Democrat , which involves mixing coffee and soy milk ! It take a lot more effort to express your preference publicly ! I am 71 years old and don't think I can tolerate another Political Party Like the current ,running my country to benefit big oil and the Saudi's ! I live in Michigan where autos and oil have created a state that is homeless and jobless ! I laugh when they discuss Obama has no experience ! It is time to forget political correctness and become Political !

  Let's see -- Hillary's 15 point loss in Wisconsin showed her camp that negative campaigning worked better than non-negative in Virginia (where she lost by more) -- sounds like the old "We lose $ on each unit but we can make it up on the volume.: -- hmmmmm

  The new HOT Soap Opera - Obamarama
  I don't know if you watch soap operas. There is a new hot one going on now that is packed with entertainment. The main character is one Barak Obama. You won't find it on the channels that carry most soaps. You can see parts of it at various times on Fox News. Here is a summary of the past ten days or so.
  Last Week - March 2 thru 8
  National Enquirer for March 17 in grocery store - Obama's Secrets - Interesting stuff - friends with terrorist Bill Ayers who boasts that he participated in the bombings of the New York police headquarters, the Capitol building and the Pentagon in the early 1970s. Says he didn't do enough - might do more in the future. Then there was Obama's pastor at the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago where Obama and his wife attended for 20 years, listening to harangues like the following: "The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no, God damn America, that's in the Bible for killing innocent people. God damn America for treating our citizens as less than human. God damn America for as long as she acts like she is God and she is supreme." This pastor Wright is a supporter of Louis Farakhan, and once took a trip to Tripoli with Farakhan.
  Monday, March 10? - Scene - Hannity and Colms - Sean Hannity attempts to ask Al Sharpton about some of Obama's connections. Sharpton explodes with a stream of irrevelant nonsense that almost blew Hannity out of his chair. Hannity tries a few more times to get answers, to no avail.
  Wednesday, March 12 - Just when it looks as if Obamas past is starting to catch up with him, two other Democrats take the heat off him, although inadvertently. Geraldine Ferraro makes statement that if Obama were white or a woman, he would never have got to where he is now. (She should know you can get in trouble these days for telling the truth.) Uproar in the media, mainly leftist. Ferraro resigns as Finance Chairperson of Hillary's campaign. Democratic governor Elliot Spitzer revealed to have spent 80 or 100 thousand dollars on prostitutes. Now with stories as juicy as that, who has time to listen to stuff about Obama, of which there will be more later on, anyway? You wonder if he thought to send to send thank-you notes to Ferraro and Spitzer for getting him out of the hot seat for the tine being - "You made my day!"
  Thursday, May 13 - Another blurb from Jeremiah Wright plays out - he says Obama grew up just like Jesus, in a nation controlled by rich white people!
  Well you get the drift - stay tuned for more interesting developments with these characters in the next installment of Obamarama.

  I'm not sure why so many of the pro-Obama commenters are anti-HRC. Between 2005 and present Obama and Clinton have voted the same on 94% of their votes, including renewing the PATRIOT act and funding the war.
  
  Also, out of the three major candidates left, Obama has the worst senate attendance record (only voting 82% of the time)
  http://www.davetufts.com/votes/
  
  I too favor Obama if the only choices were Obama, HRC, McCain. Luckily, there are other candidates and other parties.

  OK.
  
  Why are so many pro-Obama voters anti-HRC? Their voting record and actions seem very similar to me.

  Fair enough. Can't speak for anyone else but I was undecided until they started positioning Obama as the nice black candidate, like Jesse Jackson. I went to college in the south and I understand what that means, it's a cue to white voters to vote race. That disgusts me so much. That's when I decided to vote for Obama, and since then everything that's happened has only reinforced the correctness of that decision.

  Is Obama going to do the same thing for America as the Democrats have done for California? Specifically, a nanny-state that scares the middle class as well as businesses away? Looks like it.
