Answer 1

no not really dont watch much tv anyway.  

Answer 2

Not really, you don't get to see much of him here in UK, he passed through on what must be a whistle stop tour.  

Answer 3

Yes it is pretty pathetic, he is going to get one almighty come down as it has been said in previous answers America is not ready for him, so he can look forward to a very red face.  

Answer 4

I think all research and polling would indicate that a confident candidate in any political arena is more likely to succeed.

Some of the biggest election victories in the world have been by political figures staging conferences, media releases, smiling, kissing babies, shaking hands and using emotional language to convey urgency to "do something... and vote for me!"

I'm sure Obama knows he hasn't won yet, and has a long way to go but being upbeat and positive about it (and "swanning around") his party and their advisers hope it will increase their votes in November.

Well, that and the odd muddy sledge thrown against McCain might work? Speaking of which, John McCain is the same - but may go about it slightly different. Whoever loses I doubt they would be embarrassed about it - it's the way things have always been.

Answer 5

no,  not at all.  

Answer 6

and the funny part of his mincing around the world making "historic" speeches is that he actually went down in the polls.

People just became tired of seeing this inexperienced little twerp acting like he was the second coming of Napoleon

Answer 7

You have to admire his self-confidence. I don't think he'll win, America isn't ready for a black president.  

Answer 8

yes i am

he is one arrogant man ..... and hopefully his pride will come before his fall

Answer 9

No you idiot, because he won't lose.

Answer 10

Yes!  When I saw him on the BBC news at London, 10 Downing Street,I thought he had already won or something, had to check the news online to see if I missed something.

Answer 11

Hello,

(ANS) What else do you really expect, He's an American !! Its just typical American Arrogance and the stupid citizens love it of course.

**Yes! why do we have to hear so much about the American elections here in the UK?? You can bet the Americans couldn't give a stuff about our elections.

**Why? do we have to be joined at the hip with the USA ALL the darn time, I hate this attitude. Like we cannot think for ourselves here in the UK, we always have to look to the US for new ideas.

Answer 12

No absolutely not, and in time your will learn to show some respect to him as he sorts out the worlds problems left over from Bush.  

Answer 13

Yeah I don't watch tv.  F*ck it, it sucks and it's to just get everyone to think in a linear path.  Buy BUy Buy.  Kill Kill Kill.  Be scared be scared be scared. The president can take your rights away for protection, the president can take your rights away for protection, the president can take your rights away for protection.....Obama who.  I'm voting for ron Paul.  I think for myself.  s***w mainstream.

Einsteins definition of Insanity:  Trying the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result.

Republican or Democrat, You are insane.  End of story.
