How Obama Got Elected... Interviews With Obama Voters

Obama voters prove they know very little about their candidate.

Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

A huge portion of the US electorate does not avail themselves of the information available about candidates or questions placed before them. This applies equally to any party, ideology, or other group. It is no excuse for denigrating all of us. This isolated group should be ashamed of their cavalier attitude toward the privilege of voting. Please do give credit to those of us who made an informed, diligently studied, and well thought out decision.

    If you voted for Obama you didn't make an informed or well thought out decision. Period.

    Thanks for those well-thought-out contributions.

    no bias there. 

    Hard to not be biased in the face of the painfully obvious Obama- Black Power, Black Separatist, Domestic Terrorist & Ethno-Marxist connections.

    Hard to consider a vote "well thought out" when it's for someone lacking the Senatorial and Executive experience of his opponents.

    It's even harder to describe any decisions to vote for Obama as diligently studied because there is ZERO about his education and academic career available to study!

    Next I'll explain why it's hard to show a lack of bias while obama plans to SPREAD MY WEALTH.

    A-P,

    Well, if you want to play the generalization game regarding intelligence of voters that's fine with me. And since you're aligned with the candidates of choice by the well informed,cultured, educated individuals in the links below what are we to surmise about your intelligence?

    The election this year was like the winner from the recent American Idol. A FREAKIN' POPULARITY CONTEST!

      So what's your point here? To some degree or other every election in history is a popularity contest, hence the term popular vote.

            Are you under the illusion that the best man or woman for job always wins or something? If so, you should probably speak with John Kerry and Al Gore. This time around the best man for the job did happen to win out.

      A FREAKIN' POPULARITY CONTEST

      So you consider Palin's popularity with the base completely irrevelent, right?

        As guided by the likes of HOWARD STERN.

        if you want to play the generalization game regarding intelligence of voters that's fine with me.

        It's most telling you link to an item titled: Racism at McCain Palin rallies: Why whitey can't vote.

        since you're aligned with the candidates of choice by the well informed,cultured, educated individuals in the links below what are we to surmise about your intelligence? 

        They seemed more versed in Obama's reality than the average Obama supporter.

        Is calling someone a "communist" racist?

        Is being concerned with someone's ties to radical Islamic-Black Supremacist groups "racist" or "practical"?

        The best  your linked Al Jizz-Era muslim news could come up with is"Obama is a second stringer"...ooooh racism!

        You realize the muslim world acknowledges Obama's muslim heritage and they base their support of him on such.

        Racist McCain Supporter With "Obama" MonkeyDoll

        Isn't it amusing that George W. Bush as routinely insulted by liberals  little Curious George cartoons, and when someone alleging to be a McCain supporter shows up with an Obama sticker and a Curious George doll the liberals are worried about racism.

        I guess comparing a person to a monkey is only insulting when it's NOT done to a white person.

        Long story short; Try a tactic that stands up to scrutiny.

         you consider Palin's popularity with the base completely irrevelent, right?

        Palin's support is based on the voter's knowledge of Palin's political stance and her citable executive record.

        What's Obama's executive record again?

        A typical liberal attack. Odds are you're the one on mood inhibitors.

        Fortunately for you our new President is in the process of improving the health care system and they'll be able to find you a nice little pill to help you deal with the fact our President elect is a black man.

        Again the LAME LIBERAL STRATEGY OF SCREECHING "RACISM".

        Hillary-Care washed out the first time it was passed around, re-hashed as Obama-Care will be as big a failure.

        Here's some current info on your favorite Governor. Wow, those squawking turkeys look impressed with her executive skills as they get slaughtered just  over shoulder.

        Eating Tofu or some other testosterone reducing meal for the holiday are you?

        Palin was sending a pretty clear message to the turkeys of the world.

        I'd stay out of Alaska if I were you.

        And if you really want to learn about the facts on Obama's record or anything else your curious about there's latest internet gadget called google.

        Didn' think you had anything to show us why anyone in their right mind would vote for the Black Power President Obama.

        Here's a clue for you-OBAMA HAS ZERO EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE.

         We won, you lost. Deal with it and grow up as childish and bitter ,incoherent ranting is very unattractive and will cause people to cross the street when they see you coming.

        When you can put together a repsonse that isn't peppered with personal atacks and that means anything get back to us, until then you can throw insults at the wo world from mom's basement as much as you like, we know so many of you have "issues".

        The CoH doesn't condone eye-for-an-eye behavior.  Besides, I always find that it makes the other guy look like a fool when they stoop to personal attacks while I stay above it.
