For Democratic politicians, many consider President Obama to be a great political asset. That may be why Virginia Gubernatorial Candidate Creigh Deeds held a campaign rally with Obama and current Virginia Governor Tim Kaine October 27.
“Again and again, Creigh has been there for the people of Virginia, and now he needs you to be there for them,” Obama told the audience. He said the state needs a governor who will worry less about politics and more about the people of the state. “That’s the kind of person Creigh Deeds is.”
Obama’s support may not be enough for Deeds – recent polls like this one (PDF) have him trailing by quite a bit ahead of the November 3 election.

As Democrats of the Democratic Party, we are joining together in seeking reform within the Democratic Party.
Many of our elected representatives within the Democratic Party are no longer following in the time-honored footsteps laid down by the founding fathers of our great Nation. More importantly, we as democrats see our elected representatives within the Democratic Party abandoning the values and principles as set forth within the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States.
Nonetheless, this is only the beginning of our problems as Democrats, for the current Democratic Party leadership is tainted by corruption and being taken over by Socialists. These Socialists are clearly a threat to everything we hold sacred in America, and they are gaining evermore control over our Democratic Party, our Nation, and the American people.
Despite this, we as Democrats can restore control of the Democratic Party back to the party members. All we need to do is cut off donations to the local, state, and national headquarters of the Democratic Party, and to make sure the donations are made directly to patriotic and honorable Democratic Party candidates that are not corrupt and/or Socialist.
So please help spread the message to everyone of our fellow Democrats. Also, don’t forget to contact and request the Unions and other outside contributors to follow our lead as patriotic Americans.
Thank you, and God Bless America.

as a republican myself I did not vote for McCain and I will never vote for a republican again. The republicans have failed us the last 9 years. Republicans are much worse than the Democrats.
Bush and Cheney have done NOTHING but destoryed this great nation by wasteful spending.

Ray’ assessment sounds to be the stark truth. US is is in deep fianancial distress which is aggravted by the ocupation of Iraq and Afghanistan. The latter could prove much worse than Vietnam if only a military-solution becomes a priority.

If President Obama is a criminal, then what are Isreali Netan yahoos, and other rightwing landgrabbers/fugitives from International Law? Even a corrupt Olmert/Livini would be tried for atriocities if US did not provide them cover.
People in the US do not understand how much their goodwill is suffering in other countries, more so the Muslim ones. By abetting war-crimes etc, the US is helping the emergence of extremism in the world. It is time US adopted a fair policy to frustrate the landgrabbers while ensuring the 2-state solution, touted even by George W to waste time, is made to materialize. This will end landgrabbing, terminate Israeli occupation and promote world peace besides improving the US image in the world.
Obama appears to be capable of redeeming US credibility as he is not beholden to the vicious lobbies, like his predecessor, dominating the US political scene. Hence for criminals, Obama is a ‘criminal’ A wakeup call for goodguys of US.
