On Rachel Maddow. Fascinating. He said his barber told him this theory, "while he had a razor to my throat, so I believe him." Love this guy! Just thought you should all know since many of you have been talking about it.

1. I heard the NC Governor speak, and..... |

I recently experienced something that would lend credence to the theory. I recently took a bus tour trip, and I wore my Obama button prominently. I had 3 people (white) on the bus quietly approach and tell me they were amazed that I had the "guts" to proclaim my support for Obama - that they were going to vote for him, but did not want any of their friends or neighbors to know it! Sad commentary on America!

4. I was thinking the same thing remember in the primarys Obama did better in some states than the |

polls suggested before the states actually voted. His numbers went up in some cases in the white vote that the polls didn't pickup.That's why i don't think this election is going to be close.

People really don't give a shit what color Obama is. He is by far the best person for the Presidency right now, and you'd have to be a dumbass freeper to not see it.

I'm south of the triangle and I didn't see one McCain sticker. I did see at least 4 Obama's. In one neighborhood there are many Obama signs and not one McCain. four years ago it was just the opposite.
I've also noticed that there are very few w stickers left. It's like they all been removed or something.
