I read last night that oblama had quoted a line from Hendrix. The "They Talk About Me Like I Am A Dog" line, is a lyric in "Stone Free". Even when he is being weened from the 'prompter, he is only able to quote.
I must admit, I used to think of the average American as being pretty savvy, but I am not so sure anymore. Anyone who could have bought this clowns line and voted for him has to be a real poor judge of people, or deliberately trying to tear down the country like Pokey. Not sure what percentage the group falls into.
I just like how he made a point to say how he broke script. Good job big guy, you finally insert your own thoughts in a speach and look like an asshat.

That is the problem, the average American is not too bright.... take a walk through your local Wal-mart.... these are the people that vote...

Here is the text from the article..... BTW, the numbers are too close to call.
According to an outfit called BIGresearch, "When asked to 'vote' as if the election were held today, Wal-Mart, Kohl's and JCPenney shoppers are more likely to vote for McCain; while Macy's and Target shoppers say they would cast a ballot for Obama." I can't say that I'm surprised by those findings at all. Perhaps the Republicans should have held their convention in Bentonville rather than next door to Target's home city of Minneapolis.
But Wal-Mart shoppers weren't John McCain's biggest supporters. The Republican picked up 41.4% of the "vote" there, but 42.8% at JCPenney. And while 41.5% of Target shoppers went for Barack Obama, 47.2% of Macy's shoppers did. Macy's shoppers had the least "undecided" voters among the those polled at 16%. The other three stores had over 20% undecided.
Also interesting: More Wal-Mart shoppers actually identify themselves as Democrats. According to BIGresearch, "37.1% align with the Democrats and 36.5% with Republicans." Further: "JCPenney shoppers are divided evenly as well (37.4% Democrat v. 36.4% Republican). However, Kohl's shoppers tend to consider themselves on the right side of the aisle at 39.3% (v. 33.7% Democrat). ... Macy's shoppers are much more likely to be Democrat at 46.7% (v. 31.1% Republican) and so are Target shoppers (40.6% v. 31.7% Republican)."
