In two weeks, we will know who controls Congress; who is out? and who is in?. This year, the election is about War Time President [Iraq] and the economy stupid. The GOP will lose power to the Democrats in 2007, according to some Liberal Newspapers, but don't hold your breath, the GOP is known as come back kids. However, this Election is probably the most hotly contested in history, racist commercial presenting white females as sleazy and over sexed women against an African American congressman, a democrat in Tennessee and another in Missouri, described an African American congressman, a Republican as intellectually slaved because he belongs to a wrong party makes this election a hot bed.In Minnasota, an African American of moslem faith and former Black Panther may be the first to be elected in congress or the first to be sworn in by the satanic verses[Koran].Let's see who controls Congress in November 7, 2006. How is your own state doing?
In Nigeria, Obasanjo has tasked the Governors to present one of their own to replace him, a very bad signal to Atiku and Babaginda. In Nigerian death on Politicians is an open season; many are wondering if Nigeria will remain "One Nigeria" in 2007 because of the number of death on a daily basis.

Last night the "Democraaats" gained control of the House, and are poised to gain control of the Senate but not total control if Virginia, Montanna and the Vice President could help it; Dick Channey retains any decisive vote in the Senate. It is the War in Iraq not the economy; stupid. Lets see if the Democrats are up to the change in the country.

Well, for a start it is simply democracy, the power of the people, they spoke and there is nothing any one can do about it, except learn from it and wait for another 4 years.
The GOP did it to the Democrats 9 years ego not because of the economy but for the moral restoration of congress and white house during the time of Bill Clinton. Yesterday, it was not about the economy, it was about the war stupid. I will hope who ever is in control will heal the country and come up with an exit strategy on the war in Iraq; this war has become a mess of course, the deaths cannot be ignored. I am not advocating for a total pull out, that will hurt the credibility of the world's war machine. We hope the Democrats will do better than the GOP. Defense Secretary, Donald Rumsfeld steps down, perhaps that was the right thing to do, change, that is. Well done Democrats thats what democracy is all about without the barell of the gun.

This is the beauty of democracy in action and candidly speaking, it would take another 200 hundred years for most countries in Africa to get here. Just look at how many incumbents were swept away by the Democratic Tsunami, and imagined for a minute if such could happen in my godfather run country of Nigeria.

I have never been enthused with Nigerian politics but I am very familiar with the tribal or ethnic politics.But I know one thing for sure based on the articles and information via internet:
The end of PDP has come with the hand picking of Yaradua and the stooge from the so-called South/South by Obasanjo, an insult to the Igbos. He made Buhari a strong contender; that is if he selects a vice President from the Big East.
BY THE WAY ANYONE KNOWS WHERE ED-NUT IS? IS HE IN JAIL OR PRISON.THAT GUY HAS BEEN SILENT IN THIS FORUM FOR LONG, IT IS UNLIKE HIM.

Wow Is this a voice from year gone by. Nwabiafra I guess we should say the same about you, where the heil have you been brother. You and I only live 6 miles apart and yet we don't even see each other.
Why don't you just come straight and tell us you have just regained your freedom from penitentiary after being busted for Medicaid fraud in Houston instead of pretending that you were in naija.

Yar'adua relocates to Dangote's Abuja Mansion Written by Jonathan Elendu Saturday, 27 January 2007
Obasanjo reluctant to approve campaign budget
The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Musa Umar Yaradua has moved out of the Katsina Governor’s Lodge in Abuja. He is said to have relocated to the Abuja residence of business mogul, Aliko Dangote. The Kano born Lagos based business mogul is reputed to have bought the PDP presidential nomination form for the Katsina Governor who emerged as the presidential candidate of the PDP in what many people, including Party stalwarts regard as a sham election during their national convention in Abuja.
This publication had exclusively reported that Pres. Olusegun Obasanjo had mandated Aliko Dangote, one of the major beneficiaries of the current Administration’s economic policies, to fund the presidential campaign of Gov. Yaradua. Gov. James Ibori of Delta State also got the same marching orders from Pres. Olusegun Obasanjo.
According to presidency sources, the Katsina State Governor was told that it was not safe for him to be using his official lodge in Abuja as his residence. Hence, he had to relocate to the Dangote mansion in Maitama area of Abuja. A source, who is aware of this development, told Elendureports.com “the total ownership of Yaradua by Obasanjo is complete. Now every time he breathes Obasanjo will know.” Apart from being a guest of Aliko Dangote in Abuja, the hitherto recluse Governor now junkets around the country in Dangote’s executive jet.
However, the seemingly warm relationship between Aliko Dangote and Gov. Yaradua is said to be given the matriarch of the Dangote clan sleepless nights. Aliko Dangote’s mother is worried that his relationship with Pres. Olusegun Obasanjo has led to Dangote being one of the most hated men in Kano, his hometown. Madam Dangote constantly points to a live interview by Aliko Dangote on Freedom Radio, a Kano based FM station. The business man had been a guest on a call-in show. According to sources in Kano, majority of the callers heaped insults on the business mogul because of his relationship with the President. Elendureports.com investigations confirmed that Aliko Dangote has not spent a night in Kano in a long time for fear of being harmed. A source told this reporter: “The venomous hatred for Aliko makes it impossible for him to spend the night in Kano. He leaves town no matter how late.” His mother confided in a relative that she wonders how her son will survive in Nigeria after Obasanjo leaves office and Yaradua is rejected by Nigerians at the polls.
Some analysts in Abuja opined that the businessman’s investment in the Yaradua campaign was necessary, if he wanted to continue to enjoy the enormous influence and benefits his closeness to the Obasanjo Government has brought. Our investigations reveal that Aliko Dangote has benefited from waivers amounting to more than fifty billion naira (N50,000,000,000.00) since the inception of the Obasanjo regime. A Yaradua presidency funded by Aliko Dangote would only ensure that those benefits continue.
Elendureports.com can also reveal that the kick-off the Yaradua presidential campaign was not enthusiastically endorsed by Pres. Olusegun Obasanjo. According to sources at the Presidency, the PDP headquarters and other places, Pres. Olusegun Obasanjo is being viewed as an obstructionist who does not truly want the Yaradua presidential campaign to succeed. Based on interviews with various sources, we can confirm the President has refused to endorse the budget of the Yaradua campaign team. The President, who had requested for the budget, threw it out the moment he got it and described the people who prepared the budget as thieves. The Yaradua campaign staff had asked for ten million naira (N10,000,000) for logistics for the Lagos kick-off of the campaign. The President cut it down to three million (N3,000,000). Even then, the money was not released on time and the staffers had to travel to Lagos with their personal funds.
The President’s staff are said to have also engaged in tactics designed to frustrate the campaign staff. One source told this reporter: “We will prepare memos and send to the President’s people and they will just sit on it. Their body language indicates that they don’t really believe in this campaign.” Elendureports.com was informed that while plans to change the Party’s flag-bearer for the presidential elections have been halted, there is enormous pressure on Pres. Obasanjo to drop Jonathan Goodluck. “Nobody believes the guy is equal to the job. I can tell you Baba is under serious pressure to drop Goodluck. Don’t mind the sycophants shouting Yaradua and Jonathan. Corner them in a room and they will tell you choosing these two guys to represent the Party for presidential elections was a monumental fraud and blunder combined.”
Pres. Olusegun Obasanjo’s attitude towards the Yaradua candidature has not come as too much of a surprise to some Party insiders. According to a member of the team who prepared the campaign budget the President rejected, “We know the man does not want to go anyway. This is his own way of showing to us that he is still in the game.”

Al Sharpton, America's voice of Ghetto fabulous, spokesperson for Angry black men; said over the weekend that Barrack Obama is not one of us, and another black man of the Washington Post, Obama does not have thE black experience. You wonder why Collin Powel did not run for President; black Americans were not receptive of him because his folks held from Carribean Island
What Al Sharpton means : Barrack Obama is not one of their own because he is not the candidate to give them hand out, section 8, public assistance, or angry black man, blaming the Racist white America for their problems, he is not a decendant of the Slave trade, never lived in a project,his mother was white, his father African, he was raised by his white grandparents; only suffered a light stereo type about being black, yet according to CBS Poll, 52 percent of Black people will vote for Hillary Rodman Clinton, a white woman; has no black experience; never lived in a ghetto, not a descendant of the slave trade, and has never blamed the Racist whites for BLACK American problem, low SAT's and the death of homicidal black youth. What a shame!
IS THIS ABOUT BARRACK OBAMA NOT BLACK ENOUGH, [AFRICAN/WHITE] OR SIMPLY AN AFRICAN? YOU BE THE JUDGE.

Call him a black man,not a real black man, African American, other, white and black or an American born of African decent, he is like a rock star in American Politics, smart and elegant. And if you call him a black man or not a real black man, no black man has achieved what he has done in 3 months;he became a Presidential candidate or taken so serious in the national politics. Obama has raised 25 Million dollars , one million short of Hillary Rodman Clinton. The first time in 20 years Democrats have raised more money than the GOP. That ought to make you think, Obama is a candidate to bank on if your a libral minded person. Watch out, Hillary and Al Sharpton, here comes Obama.

The most hard wrenching leadership selection process in the world to rule a nation is USA and they earned it. To become an American President, you must work hard to get it, unlike Nigeria where it is handed to you in a platter. The Nigerian people cowardly make noise and sing the blues after being defrauded compared to the actionable Kenyans. In Nigeria; there is no campaigning or getting to know you, the candidates or what they stand for. It is selective alright but it takes only 10 seconds at the back door to name a President. He does not have to work hard to get the people's vote or debate with other candidates.
USA ELECTION: If you have seen the faces of all the candidates, particualrly the Democratic candidates during a debate; you see fatigue, excrutiating wrinkles and eyeballs deemed with red and dilated pupils. That is hard labor at personal best to serve the people.
Obama has shown that he is likable and electable. He started with greased monkies on his back; you know the so-called Black leaders stating that he is not Black enough and the Press for lack of experience. But that statement became an advantage for him; contrasted him from Jessie Jackson and other protest candidates. The Caucasians saw him as likable and ignored his lack of executive experience. The black leaders leaned towards Clinton but Opra Winfrey saw something the loud mouthed black leaders did not see. The black leaders saw former President Clinton. The Caucasians don't want former President Clinton in the white House. And Opra saw energy, Presidential ambition, change, class; she also saw John F Kennedy and Martin Luther King combined. She campaigned for him in Iowa and raised 3 million for him in California.
Obama started campaigning a year ego in Iowa and the hard work has paid off.After the Iowa primary; Clinton was leading in New Hamsphire 33 to 28 Obama. After Saturday's debate; Obama is currently leading in the Poll in New Hamsphire 34 to 30 Clinton. And by this evening, Poll showed him leading Clinton by double digit. Now thats hard work my friend. Vote for Obama for the future and new generation of African born Americans, for change and for being such a class. I have voted for the GOP in the last 8 years and this time, I will vote for Obama. I am impressed.

Godamned Africans and their conspricacy theory. I met 6 different Africans, Liberian, Ghanian, Nigerian, Ivory Coast and Namibian in an African Restaurant, like Hillary's famous quote, " A vast Right Wing Conspiracry, a quote made famous when Bill Clinton's uncontrollable and erotic drive to have sex with a younger female[Monica Luwinski]. These Africans have assumed that silly faculty by Hillary Clinton. These Africans were in agreement that the Press is conspiring with the Republicans for Obama to win the Democratic ticket so he will loose easily to a Republican. The same air heads had previously sworn that Obama will never win any state but Illinois. The same Africans predicted that Clinton will win the election, quess who is being BBQ in a grill----> Hilllary Rodman Clinton. These Africans formerly for Hillary, have come up with a voddoo theory that the Press wants Obama to win so the Republicans will retain the White House. They failed to watch this man's record from Harvard Law School to Senator in his own state, not withstanding his likability. To further inform you how silly and limited intellectually adventrous; they are, they will prefer Obama to be Vice President to Clinton. What a pity?

DESPARATE COUPLES, RACIST CLINTONS AND DEMOCRATIC PARTY
For an act of desparation and avoid being swallowed by Barrack Obama, the Clintons have decided the best way to take him down is to inject racist code statements in the campaign.
President Clinton: "This whole thing about Obama is a Fairy Tale; I have ever seen, meaning his dream to become the first Black President is not but a false tale based on well crafted speech by Obama.
HILARY RODMAN CLINTON: The Civil Right was started by Lyndon Johnson discrediting the effort made by black people and Martin Luther KIng who placed his life on the line; long before President Johnson.
New York Attorney General, Kuomo, son of Marion Kuoma:" We cannot jive talk ourselves to the white house referring to Obama.
Well, there you see it. You can take a white trash out of the trailer house but you can never take the trash out of him or her no matter how rich or educated he or she is. President Clinton may have been doomed the First Black President but don't forget he comes from the South and a red neck in his house hold where the N word was frequently used.
The Democratic party masquarad themselves as Librals but remains the most racist and Libral party compared to the Republicans. This is another reason why the Republicans will retain the white house because Race has been injected into the campaign by the CLINTONS. Hilary Rodman was given one hour on NBC Meet The Press to defend herself and sale her campaign while Obama...... NBC is well known for being libral TV station and Democrats as well.

Former President Bill Clinton and his wife Hilary Rodman Clinton disgust me to the bone. Dirty-Racist politician in the blood and friends of Black America in the public.
Clinton and his wife have applied every racist code words against Obama and now their old tricks has cought up with them. They are not what many Black Americans actually think they are.They use them for their advantage. It was Clinton, then governor of Arkansas left his campaign to witness the execution of a mentally unstable black man to please his white constituence. Imagine if he was a Republican Governor, black leaders would have raised hell. Andrew Young, former Mayor of Atlanta is still not convinced about the bleeding Libral. Aging Andrew Young stated that Clinton is just as black if not more black than Obama. And you wonder how one can be measured being black. Obama has tried to appeal to all Americans but the Clintons want you to believe that he is a black candidate:to please his white constituents; Shame on them. If you can't beat Obama; smear him by labelling him as a black candidate.
Here is Clinton: Obama's victory in South Carolina is no better than Jessie Jackson when he won South Carolina but did not become President" Racist undertone. Why did he not use Edward he won South Carolina but did not become President. Clinton has and will fail to label Obama as a Black Candidate, if you Democrates don't get the drift. I wonder when? I have lost respect for both the bitch and Bubba, they crave racism to advance their cause.

People, Let us not be used or fall into this trick. The other people will like to analyse, interpreet and spin any and everything the Clintons or Obama's camp says to create a rift. O kwobe ekwobe o balu onye ilo. When the din is raised, the enemy gains ground.
Yesterday, Bill was the "first black president". Now THEY want us to see lynching in everything he says, even when Obama himself uses his rebuttals very carefully. In a little while, these two camps must come together to face the real racists in the GOP.
No matter how well the spinners write, read between the lines before you join the fray.
