    Is this the same one that kept saying she remembered the day he was born in Kenya?

    Whoever had one reply in the "classless response by a nutjob" wins. :(

    I wonder what Obama will do. Seems like it would be hard to celebrate tomorrow if he wins.

    there is nothing classless about my statement.

    Obama has a grandmother that claims he was born in Kenya and I was asking if this grandmother was that one?

    My respects to his grandmother and I apologize for any offense to anyone here.

    I was hoping she'd make it to election day. I'm sure she knew he was going to win though I bet it would have been satisfying for her to see it. Anyway, rest in peace.

    That really sucks. It would have been so great if she could have lived to see him elected.

    Will any wingnut apologize for their wild conspiracy theories that her "medical crisis" was really a cover story so Obama could travel to Hawaii and do something (It was never really clear what) about his fake birth certificate?

    Doubtful.

    That sucks, one day before potentially witnessing her grandson's greatest accomplishment. R.I.P.

    I'm sure Obama had her assassinated to maximize his political advantage. :rolleyes:

    It would probably have been just as tough if she'd passed away right after he won.

    I read about this a few minutes ago and I thought how sad! :( One day before the election, tragic.

    Win or lose, she had every reason to be proud of her grandson's accomplishments. R.I.P.
