just think you guys ,this man's life and his families life will never be the same. Probably the the last time they will be able to trick or treat.

Obama is just so damn cool!

THIS is by far, one of the MAIN reasons why I love this dude.
I love the fact that he is unashamed to SHOW his love and affection, and MAKE TIME for his WIFE and his CHILDREN. And, it's a HEALTHY family.
If Obama, whose schedule is off the chain and regulated down to the second, can make time for shit, so can we (myself included).
He values his children--who are girl children who will become women.
Women take note: Compare this man to someone like Clinton. Or Bush. Or Reagan. All of these men had girl children. Remember how they turned out--or didn't...

Three words for our new President Barack Obama......Family values priority! A wholesome family contributes to a wholesome nation! What an example for the rest of the nation!

Yes! In so many ways!

At the risk of being sent to the corner: I just figured out Barack Obama's Halloween costume.
He's going as Bill Cosby.

Good night, JJP!

Senator Obama is a good father....what else needs to be said.

Hey ther, GHL,
A scene from McCain/Palin camp next Tuesday night. Starring Mcshame & Pale-in
Obama has testy moment with the media. His weakness is shown again...this time as he RUNS AWAY whilst dragging his daughter. Shameful!!! Just like his voting record, i.e. voting "Present" - “Green means ‘yes,’ red means ‘no,’ and yellow means you’re a chicken sh*t.” - and the man is afraid to make a stand.

Karmi, I finally get it. You're a satirist, making fun of the trolls. You're doing some great work!
Nate_Wesley
Obama asks camera people to cool it for awhile. They don't, so he decides not to give them any more B-roll. You're right, Karmi: Barack just cost himself the presidency. I can see the commercial now.
"Barack Obama. Too chicken to take his daughter trick or treating in front of cameras. If he won't go trolling for fun-size Snickers and Clark bars in front of rolling tape, what else will he choose to hide from us?"
[I'm John McCain and I approved this message.]
APeach
Heh. Good one.
As much as I LOVE seeing pics of the girls, they are his daughters, and there's no overarching need to for us to know every second of his trick-or-treating time with them.

And YOU will have a testy moment on Tuesday when McCain wont' even be able to pull in Arizona.
Matt Drudge is touting the results of a one-day sample in a Zogby poll, which apparently showed John McCain ahead by 1 point.
There are a couple of significant problems with this.
Firstly, there is a reason that pollsters include multiple days of interviewing in their tracking polls; a one-day sample is extremely volatile, and have very high margins for error.
Secondly, the Zogby polls have been particularly volatile, because he uses nonsensical party ID weightings, which mean that his weighting process involves making numbers doing naughty things that they usually don't like to do.
Thirdly, Zogby polls are generally a lagging rather than a leading indicator. This is because he splits his interviewing period over two days; most of the interviews that were conducted in this sample took place on Thursday night, with a few this afternoon. The reason this is significant is because lots of other pollsters were in the field on Thursday night, and most of them evidently showed good numbers for Obama, as he improved his standing in 6 of the 7 non-Zogby trackers.
Finally, there was no favorable news for McCain to drive these numbers. Polls don't move without a reason (or at least they don't move much).
So go out to your Halloween parties and enjoy yourself, and we'll be back to covering the polls for you tomorrow.

Troll be gone. When you are using Drudge as a source you are really reaching.

Hey Lucy, what did you get for Election Day?
Lucy: I got a Democratic Senator!
Hey Peppermint Patty, what did you get for Election Day?
Peppermint Patty: I got a Democratic Congressman!
Hey Karmi, what did YOU get for Election Day?
Karmi: All I got was rocks....{clears throat} and President Obama.
It's the Great GOP Loss, Karmi Brown!

Really like this guy's priorities--grandma and his kids on Halloween, the best US holiday. My only qualm is that it is still light out---the effen squares are winning. My favorite Halloween treats were cup cakes and carmell apples. Because of perverts and deranged people, non-corporate food is prohibited. This is sad and insane.
No rest until kids can trick-or-treat with out parental supervision, and only at night.
I live near Old Town Alexandria...Obama/Biden Signs outnumber McCain/Palin signs almost 5 to 1.
In Old Town that's something, because that's where Old Money in Alexandria is and they're usually ReThug supporters.
rikyrah
CPL,
did you see the post at Marc Ambinder's about the kids voting in FAIRFAX?
FAIRFAX?
now, unless it's radically changed, Fairfax is $$$$$$$
From Ambinder
31 Oct 2008 06:36 pm Virginia's Schoolchildern Vote -- The Churchill Road Example Virginia let its schoolchildren vote in a mock statewide presidential election this Wednesday, and here are the results from the most affluent pubic elementary school in Fairfax County, Virginia.
Churchill Road Elementary School is just one place of learning, but the person who e-mailed me the tally, a prominent Republican, expected that kids would choose John MCCain.
448 chose Barack Obama and 270 chose McCain.
Obama won every grade level. This is interesting... not significant...but interesting. if you assume that kids pick up their political cues from their parents.
Fairfax County is one of the wealthiest counties in the Nation, Rikyrah. Average household income is $90K a year, and that's ONE PERSON, so a couple is hauling in twice that to be considered lower middle-class.
Rachel
Interesting, but ... my sixth grade, in 1988, chose Jesse Jackson in a landslide, in a mostly rich conservative town in what is now Michele Bachmann's district.
That said, I really hope you're right. I've got some pretty long-standing republican family in VA, and they're talking about not voting in this election. They were Nixon people twice, for Pete's sake-- there is nothing I can do to persuade them to vote for a democratic candidate-- but they're not remotely excited about McCain.
Lilytiger
Not voting works in this case.
