Renters Love Obama
Turns out that Obama escape clause in condo contracts might not be necessary, since the percentage of renters is going up (to 32.2 percent from 30.9 percent according to an Apartments.com survey).

Turns out that Obama escape clause in condo contracts might not be necessary, since the percentage of renters is going up (to 32.2 percent from 30.9 percent according to an Apartments.com survey). And renters, it seems, are planning to make Obama their president. “One week away from casting their ballots, renters surveyed revealed that nearly 60 percent are backing Barack Obama for president and the top issue on their minds is the national economy,” reads a press release that landed in our inbox. “John McCain received 23 percent of renters’ votes followed by 9 percent who preferred not to answer the question and 6 percent who are undecided.”

Thanks, Poley. Good luck not contradicting your argument next time.
SnarkSlope:
Not a particularly creative or snarky comment. The world I described is reality for the vast majority of the human inhabitants of this planet. What reality are YOU living in?
Oh, the one where you think the US is no different than everywhere else in the world?
Good luck with that.
Hilary fans for McCain – very few will make that switch in these times, very few, mark my words, IronBalls. Go back to reading your Economist – which I do not believe you actually read because I read it last week and NOTHING you spew even remotely resembles what they talked about.
Please go do something useful.
Polemicist – I know that reality is an acquired taste, but you should really consider trying it.
“I’d still put my money on Obama winning due to the bad economy and voters prompensity to blame the incumbent party”
Ok, IronBalls, so whom exactly should we be blaming for the mess that’s been snowballing for the last 8 years?
Muffett,
If McCain pulls off a surprise victory, it will be one of the happiest days of my life.
Millions of former Hillary supporters like myself can’t wait to go out and vote for McCain.
That said, I’d still put my money on Obama winning due to the bad economy and voters prompensity to blame the incumbent party, but I suspect the polls are underestimating former Hillary supporters like myself who are dead set against his tax and waste agenda. . . particularly on the verge of a major Depression.
A year from now, when many of your friends have lost their jobs due to Obama’s increased taxation of big business in order to pay for his “promises,” if this website still exists, you’ll be posting anti-Obama rantings instead.
I do agree PitbullNYC, however these are dangerous times. While Democrats, especially the older ones, will try to gradually impose more social control upon us – as things become more desperate, the radical wing will undoubtedly push for expediency.
No republic in history has withstood the majority of the people becoming financially dependent upon the government. When we reach that point, which Obama’s Plan for America clearly spells out, revolution and/or open rebellion will begin. Application of military force is a certainty when that happens.
Now, I don’t believe for a minute your typical hate spewing liberal has what it takes to pacify any part of this nation where people refuse to participate in their schemes – but they will try. Once that happens, it’s all over. Washington will have lost its legitimacy to rule. Then, the real fun begins.
well yeah but the difference being, how it might affect you later. i truly believe either of them are going to make a truly horrific leader for the next 4 years 🙁 for people of all walks of life.

Alas, I think the dirty McCain-Palin scare tactics are giving some voters pause – I urge all Obama supporters to hit the phones to phone canvas for Obama since a human voice really can counteract the robocalls, slimy emails, etc. that many undecideds are getting barraged with! I do think Obama can win, but I can tell you that the Obama campaign is not the slightest bit complacent – they still need all the help they can get! If you’re interested in volunteering (phone canvasing is easy and can be done from your home), just go to mybarackobama.com….
