"Obama is so liberal he would appoint Rosie O'Donnell"...I don't need to make the argument against this. Just look at his running mate, Joe Biden: against gay marriage, a centrist on most issues, working with Republicans, for over 20 years. Now, look at McCain's partner, Palin. Rosie may be better

Patricia Donnelly, Brooklyn, USA

The Ambassador can say whatever he want to say about Mr. Obama. Name me one American who had the experience of President of The United States of America before becoming President?

William, Oxford, England

Obama is intellectually superior to anything the Republicans can muster. There is a landslide in the offing here and the haters can go cry in their drinks. As for the Republican party do not look for salvation in 8 years time...Chelsea Clinton might have something to say about that. You're HISTORY!

Well, Obama may actually make it. I'm not surprised. This is a country who voted Bush in twice. Not surprising at all. As the fact checkers are checking the debates it is clear that BIden made the most mis-statements by a long shot.

Sometimes, it is better to get a view from the outside looking in. I believe the Ambassador has it right. Obama is so liberal if he gets into office he's likely to appoint Rosie O'Donell and Barabara Streisand to the Supreme Court. He's arrogant and aloof, not to mention woefully inexperienced.

It's called 'calling a spade a spade'. O'bama is a true Liberal and very proud of it . It's just that America is not.

Bob Hall, new york, United States

Actually, he is a rich man - though admittedly only through marriage, not his own skill and judgment. His limitations and flaws of character have been clearly visible in his campaign style and tactical decisions.

Not fair? On the contrary, he thoroughly deserves the position he's now in.

Simon, Washington DC, USA

McSame and Palin Comparison....there's just no debate over which is the better ticket.

OBAMA - BIDEN '08
Thank God!!!

A landslide is on the cards for Obama if things continue the way they are going at the moment

Brian Musah, Hertford,

Jay McCaffrey, Hollywood ~ You have it backwards. Clinton and Dems forced through deregulation of banking and giving of mortgages to one and all - regardless of finances. McCain brought bills in '05&'06 to investigate Fannie & Freddie and Dems. blocked.

Nona, New York City, USA

So what if he is a liberal. If you look up liberal in the dictionary you'd see Ronald Regan was a liberal too. Don't let the Republicants change definitions

Nanc, Saint Paul,

After all the comments by ministers who should have known better. Now Number 10 manages to leak an ambassador’s confidential letter. At from the leaked letter, at least H.M.'s Ambassador seems to have common sense.

When has the opinion of any foreign government elected anyone? Do the Brits care what I think of Gordon Brown and his policies?

Rebecca, Alabama, USA

All of the reforms put in by Dems to prevent the Great Depression from happening again have been removed by the Republicans, they called it "Deregulation." So here we go again, 1929 again. Obama understands this. McCain is still calling for more deregulation -- McCain is doomed and rightfully so.

Jay McCaffrey, Hollywood, Florida, USA

Go Obama! It looks like Palin power only lasted about a week then.

James McCullough, Queens, New York, USA

The begining of the end for McCain? Palin's rapid decline will not help matters and may well accelerate the process. I feel sorry for McCain. It is a bad time to be a Republican Presidential Candidate. He gambled big time choosing Palin . He is now about to pay the price for this supreme folly.

Brian Musah, Hertford, UK

Thank god you Americans are seeing the light! I was worried this Palin circus act may sway the vote! What an insult to American woman that such an incompetent person was placed in such a role with little to back it up.

Obama inspires. The world will appreciate it if Obama gets elected.

Bart, Vancouver, Canada

Palin is now leda in the saddle bags. The whole Annie Oakley as political Karaoke Queen got old so fast. McCain is done. Stick a fork in him and turn him over.

The world may finally see a US president that is sharper than most of the people he engages with. Not before time either.
