    US Presidential Elections thread - the fate of the world to be decided

    I wasn't criticising Powell. It seems that the negativity of McCain's campaign has really back fired on him and that has helped Obama open up more of a lead.

    My first reaction to Powell backing Obama was that he was just trying to get with the winning team, to try and get a nice job with Obama. It's all starting to look like something really big will have to happen for Obama to lose.

    I'm not surprised. I'm used to watching BBC news, which is required to be neutral, and I would have to say that a lot of the media coverage came across as pretty pro-Obama, so the Republicans probably feel they have to do something.

    I went for McCain, mainly since no-one else has. I'm not that bothered who wins the election, but I have a sneaky feeling that McCain will win.

    Brilliant. Polticians have been scaring folk with the threat of terrorism to ge their own way for the last few years, but you're scared when Obama speaks positively. :D I don't like it either.

    Guys, is this Obama-Clinton battle as big in America as the media is making out here? Are most Americans really that bothered? I recent years only about half of the British electorate has actually voted when given the opportunity.

    Maybe, but it isn't far off the mark.
