1. Barack Obama - Good for...
eldar ,   Haifa   (11.04.12)
America. Good for Israel. Good for the planet. Send Romney back to high school to learn a bit about climatology and environment. He should have ran back to wherever he's from (he's really from nowhere, if you ever noticed) when Sandy send already high sea levels over the Manhattan flood barriers. Romney will do nothing about greenhouse emissions (the man and his constituency don't believe in science), he'll cut public funding from everything from disaster relief to public television, and he'll figure out how to get rich in the process. Obama in 2012.
2. the expression is "neck and neck".
shloime ,   toronto, canada   (11.04.12)
3. Barack Obama
Linichka ,   Gdynia, Poland   (11.04.12)
Good for nobody, that I can see.
4. Obama is ahead
Elan ,   Berkeley   (11.04.12)
While the media likes to portray the race as a tie, the Electoral College (which is what actually wins the election) favors Obama heavily. He's up in almost every poll in Ohio which is the key state, and even leading in Virginia and Colorado.
5. Obama has not done one good thing for America.
Chaim ,   Israel   (11.04.12)
The bottom line is that America was far better off, in every respect, when Obama was inaugurated than today. Obama is an absolute failure. He has not done one good thing for America. Obama's background is radical Alinsky and it's quite possible he's hurting America on purpose.
6. #1 Eldar
Belinda ,   Texas, USA   (11.04.12)
Obama just allowed a bunch of heathen to slaughter 4 Americans & quite possibly sodomize at least 1 of them. He has aided our enemies, including Israel's enemies, and armed them. As far as climate & environment, in VA's you haven't noticed, the US is $16 trillion in debt, our credit rating has been downgraded & all Obama & his constituency, which obviously includes you, a bunch of tree hugging fools & socialists/communists/Marxists can think about is environmental??? Sorry Eldar, right now, it's time to focus on getting our fiscal house in order & with 23 MILLION unemployed or underemployed, it's about SURVIVAL. I'm not saying we don't need to be responsible stewards of the planet but let's bring a little bit of common sense to the table & think about this. It don't take a rocket scientist to figure it out, you're gonna have to cut some programs that are popular if we even have a chance of surviving this mess we're in. Obama is obviously not capable of that type of thought. Btw, Obama has more wealth than Romney when you add all their assets up. Look it up, it's there unless you're stuck more in ideology than the truth!
7. # 1
Birdi ,   Israel   (11.04.12)
In the last 4 years Obama has done zero for America. He is a failure & the worst president ever. That says it all.
8. To the Jewish voter in Florida!!!
Michael in Metulla ,   Israel   (11.04.12)
Don't believe the scare tactics of the right. Obama's record on Israel is as good as any of the Republicans of the past 20 years, if not better. Israel's defense minister calls it the best relationship ever. Former army and intellegence heads in Israel praise his administration. DO NOT let Republicans manipulate you! Aside from that, if Medicare and Social Security are important to you, do not let Romney take them away from you. Charlie Crist (former Republican governor of Florida) endorses Obama. Michael Bloomberg (independent mayor of NYC) endorses Obama. General Colin Powell (Chief of Staff in the Bush White House) endorses Obama. This American-Israeli with deep roots in both countries endorses Barack Obama - a friend of Israel and a friend of the Jewish community.
9.  Barack Obama - Good for world Jihad.
Ariel ,   Europe   (11.04.12)
Four more years of this clueless radical in White House will do America in.
10. Go Mitt Romney , Go!!!
Judah ,   Golan Heights,Israel   (11.04.12)
11. #1, Eldar
Scott ,   Florida   (11.04.12)
Wow, an Israeli who hasn't succumb to the fear Ynet and Jpost would have you believe! Obama 2012.
12. #11 He's a Yank
Jake   (11.04.12)
13. Obama hasn't responed quickly in the crisis in New York.
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (11.04.12)
They have several mile gas lines with people waiting for 3.5 hours to get gas. Forget about getting water until Monday. If this had been Bush....CBS...NBC....ABC....PBS...or any of the other liberal news organizations.....they would be having a filed day screaming about the mess. Lets not forget about Libya being covered up by the same groups trying to drag Obama across the finish line by the scruff of his neck. I heard Haaretz endorsed Obama.....Get ready to get thrown under the bus if Obama gets back into office. Haaretz will rue the day they endorsed this guy for re-election if he wins again.
14. 1# When will you climate worshippers get a clue.
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (11.04.12)
Over a mile of ice covered New York City. It melted without human help. You are following a cult group of hippies screaming the sky is falling. These same clowns...said we were going back into an Ice Age in the schools in the late seventies. 1979 to be exact. Al Gore invented the internet as well as global warming. He's laughing all the way to the bank. Buy his book ...waste some more paper and money. I'm amazed that Liberals who flat out scream god doesn't exist....replaced him with their own theocratic environmental cult religion.
15. 4# I wouldn't be to sure of polls heavily weighted
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (11.04.12)
towards 8 percent more turnout for democrats at the election polls. You might get a big surprise from the leftist news organizations polsters.... that want their baby Obama back into office again. Needless to say....Israel will be abandoned entirely.
16. #1 Barack Obama
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (11.04.12)
You can like Obama for any reason you like, but don't talk about his green credentials: he is worse than Bush for the environment. Obama attacked the Chinese for supplying accessible solar energy while he pumped endless funds into "green projects" that ended up in his friends' pockets. His policies raised the price of energy, making fracking worth the effort. Instead of saving the planet by developing alternative sources and lowering consumption, Obama's policies simply continue burning non-renewables by taking more money from poor Americans and give them to the oil industry.
17. 8# Get a clue we have 16 Trillion dollars of on the book
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (11.04.12)
debt. We have 121 Trillion dollars of off the book debt including Medicare ....the Prescription Drug Plan .....and Social Security. That's a grand total pf 137 Trillion dollars. We have 143 million people who work in the United States. Times 1 million dollars times 143 million. Just add 6 zero's to 143 million. It equals 143 Trillion dollars. The United States is within 6 Trillion dollars more of debt....which means all of us workers will owe 1 MILLION DOLLARS EACH... on this debt. Look at usdebtclock.org if you don't believe it. Social Security and hyperinflation is right around the corner Michael. They will print money with computer keystrokes and leave all of us with worthless Social Security checks. Obama isn't going to save anyone from anything. We are bankrupt as a country. Israel went through hyperinflation when I was living their in 1979...and 1982. I remember it well. Our country is a financial fiasco.
18. After 75% of Americans living in Israel vote Mitt Romney
Miron ,   USA   (11.04.12)
the press publishes "tie". Facts? What's that?
19. Barack Obama - Best friend Israel ever had!
Avi Israeli ,   Modiin, Israel   (11.04.12)
Obama is a real friend of Israel's and will not let us down like he did with other Client States in the region. He told us that he has Israel's back and we should believe him. He no longer believes most of what Reverend Wright told him about Israel and the Jews. He will declare Jerusalem Israel's eternal capital and press the 'no hard feelings' reset button with Bibi as soon as he is re-elected. Trust me.
20. # 2 shloime, thank you so much for pointing that out!
Abdullah ,   Jeddah, S. Arabia   (11.04.12)
(End)
21. #8
Belinda ,   Texas, USA   (11.04.12)
Israeli defense minister thinks its the best relationship ever huh? Most Jewish people I know think he's almost as big a joke as Joe Biden! I guess you like leadership that allows their own to be killed!
22. #19
(11.04.12)
Your email address says it all....You are a paid shill and a naive 1 at that! Wow...
23. #4
(11.04.12)
Only when you count the voter fraud that the Obama campaign is and has been directing!
24. Oba
(11.04.12)
25. Barak Obama will shut down Israel next 4 years
(11.04.12)
26. The Jews of America will vote for Obama because they
Al   (11.04.12)
are clueless and dumb. Israel will end up being screwed blued and tattooed. Obama has shown nothing but contempt towards Israel from day 1. A few kind words from this bozo dont amount to a hill of beans. Should America re-elect this clown, it will the end of America as we know it. Mark my words...Obama will be the end of America and we all know it.
27. #22, I think post 19 was sarcastic
Daniel ,   JM   (11.04.12)
It sure sounds like sarcasm
28. Germans have chosen&elected Mr.H, Hamas was "elected" too.
tom ,   tel aviv   (11.04.12)
If the Americans in their clueless stupor choose Obama again then we, the World deserve the outcome. The tide of History has not stopped because the French invented "Egalite Franiternite et Egalite". Darkness reigns supreme all over our planet in spite of Internet & 3D movies! If the Yankees crave an anti-American for President, that's their privilege..... :-(
29. Obama wins Israeli clown Romney lost
Tayfun_Turkey ,   Istanbul   (11.04.12)
It is very obvious Obama wins and Romney, clawn of Israel lost elections. However I would rather prefer Romney to take power and further ruin USA, USA is sinking with every war and it will be drown when Israil-Iran war erupts.
30. 8-you are kidding, aren't you?????
