Obama against stem cells, for troops in Iraq and for Palin as his VP
Did anyone else hear the several interviews of votes in NYC? They were first asked
who they were for and if they were for his policies. They all said yes.

The the interviewer asked if they support Obama's anti stem cells, his wanting to stay in
Iraq, if they thought Obama's pick of Palin was ok and some other McCain stances....

They ALL said that is why they are voting for Obama...because they SUPPORT his policies!

Do we have a majority of uninformed voters or liars onboard? Oh well, they are ours and
that is all that matters I guess.

1. Yes.. this is a big right-wing talking point at the moment - Howard Stern!
I got a mass forward from someone with the Howard Stern interviews.
Of course it's edited and there is no way to prove it's validity....but whatever...
I'm sure Howard Stern is the ultimate in political thought

3. It wouldn't be any different if they covered most McCain supporters

They selectively edit out the people who have a clue and they run around trying to find the most clueless - or even go as far as to "coach" people into saying what they want just for the show.

Go out and interview McCain supporters and see if its any different. Well, none of them have a clue to begin with, but you'd get plenty of hate-speech and talking points regurgitated from Hannity, Limbaugh, et. al.

4. I wish all the absolutely idiots on the other side had enough sense to be on our side.
But oh well. Fortunately for us, there are enough thinking people on our side to balance out the ones who don't know anything.

It would help if you would provide a link to this, so that we can determine for ourselves how much truth (and bias) there might be to the story.

5. I don't belive it
there's a difference when we show how misinformed McCain/Palin supporters are about Obama than saying Obama supporters don't know who Obama is; anyone with a tv, a radio or newspaper knows who Palin is. Black people are uninformed idiots, we just vote based on skin color that's why this is the first election we will be voting in. Then he had one "black" voter saying he's voting for McCain based on Obama's stance. Look I got the message Howard is trying to tell- We blacks are stupid. Thanks!
