TICK TOCK, TICK TOCK…
Despite what national polls say, today’s presidential election is simply too close to call.
Admitting he was “cautiously optimistic,” incumbent President Barack Obama told syndicated host Steve Harvey, “We’ve got the votes to win this thing, but only if the [voters] show up at the polls.”
Obama is obviously referring to black voters, who he defiantly dismissed earlier this year.
During an interview with Black Enterprise magazine 3 months ago, Obama was asked to respond to criticism that he hasn’t done enough to support black businesses.
“I’m not the president of black America,” Obama sniffed.
No one asked Obama if he was the president of Latino America or the president of the gays, but he has done more for those groups in the past 6 months than he has done to help black businesses in 4 years.
Nevertheless, Sandrarose.com reluctantly endorses Barack Obama for reelection because he is the lesser of two evils in this race — not because he’s half black.

Sandy has finally seen the light
I see people commenting on news FB pages about his name, him being Muslim. So what if he was?! Disgusting racists, but I rather deal with an open racist than a closeted one.
I’m with you on the lesser of two evils, Sandra Mae!
That’s how he got my first vote, cause there was no way Sarah Palin was going to end up in the white house if I had any say.
And FYI: according to “the blacks” and Al Sharpton… All the OTHER Presidents had an obligation to address the needs of African America… The BLACK one doesn’t though. *Kanye shrug

Obama told me to tell you that he’s getting you a one way plane ticket back to England as soon as he’s reelected.

Thanks for the endorsement, however you can’t vote right, so your endorsement means what exactly? Furthermore, if ROMNEY was black, I still wouldn’t vote for him.

LOL
I just voted
I hope everyone just vote… Not just for the president but the other proposals your state might have as well…..
I’m so damn nervous about tonight. If Robme wins, I’m going to move in with my grandma in Kingston. I don’t wanna be anywhere near Texas if he wins..
its raining today, and the say rain before a big event like this is a sign of a washing/ cleansing before a new beginning. i don’t know what that means in this election, but it could very well mean a new, big restart for America lead by Mr. Obama, with 4 new years to finish bringing us back to something even better than what Bill Clinton had done for us.

Last time prez won the election I was at a frat house with my friend and as soon as the final votes were in they broke out the hookahs and kegs and chit. Then had the nerve to blast “my president is black!” I said “welp. Time to go home!
they were bout to cut up.

@naija RHWATL started already?? DAYUM!
@Naija
In watching (what I did catch of it/that segment) she said something to Kim about her remarks. I still don’t understand how Sweetie is back on the show, when last I remember she was fired.

@Naija the show was kinda dry to me. I didn’t really like the performances but, the honors were nice. When Janelle said that I was like YESSSS!!! Her speech touched me. I love that she’s at a crossover point in her career but she still comes across as being humble and gracious.

============================
I just remember her saying something in her confessional but never directly to Kim, especially that black comment…but I remember her popping off directly on Sheree and NeNe…Sweetie’s back cause Kim can’t afford a real nanny and Sweetie got stockholm syndrom, inlove with her massa…her husband should be shamed that he’s living in his wife’s ex-lover’s home…smh

The lines for the polls were long and its very cold in DC today but ppl are waiting (some with their kids which is awesome! Its great to see ppl take it seriously
@Naija..I liked the show and the concept behind it. I liked the honors, especially when they honored the ‘regular girls’ but, the singers weren’t doing it for me. Maybe I’m just tired of the same radio chicks over and over. After Brandy, Ciara and Alicia I was like
I missed Luke’s performance.

@MIANY – I didn’t know who he was…he sang Wildflower…and chile let me tell you…instant panty dropper
oh Eric Benet and Anthony Hamilton sang with him too but they weren’t needed…and then there was Idris with that chocolate swag and british accent…YES LAWD…ok I’ll stop now

Good Morning Roses!
Happy Election Day!
When Kim came by the house with Sweetie, I was offended by some of the things she and Sweetie said. Kim said Sweetie told her she needed to lock her doors when she got off of my exit, because I lived in the hood. I was very irritated by that, because I was thinking, “Where the f— do you live, Sweetie?”
There were even more things said that rubbed me the wrong way as well, like, “I didn’t even know they had houses like this over here. They must’ve just recently fixed it up.” Or “Wow, this is nice. I wasn’t expecting this AT ALL.” Or when I showed them the in-ground jacuzzi room, one of them said, “Oh you meant a real jacuzzi! When you mentioned you had a jacuzzi room, I didn’t know you meant a real Jacuzzi, I thought you were talking about a jacuzzi tub.” Why else would I mention a jacuzzi tub?
Oh I can’t forget this one! At one point I found myself defending my side of town and said, “There are a lot of wealthy people that live in this area,” and Sweetie said, “Like drug dealers.” I wasn’t feeling it at all.
Sweetie explained that she grew up on the north side of town, and she said that she heard my side of town was dangerous.
In my opinion, the stuff that Sweetie says to Kim adds to the whole racist theory people have about Kim. If Kim has a black friend that feeds her bullsh– that certain areas of town are “hood” or “ghetto,” then that’s what she’s going to run with.
==========================
so she’s gonna blame Sweetie instead of Kim…Kandi always ready to pop off on the blacks but the whitie gets a pass

hadn’t seen Kim in a while when she came over that day. The first couple of negative things they said kind of flew over my head, but after a while I caught on and I was feeling a little bothered by it.
Have you ever had one of those moments where something happened that wasn’t cool and after the fact you thought you should’ve told that bitch this or that? Well that was one of those moments for me. I was trying to be cool, like maybe they didn’t know any better.
I was thinking I shouldn’t trip, because clearly they have never been in this area before, but after a while it was like OK that’s enough of the ghetto neighborhood comments.
After all the talk about my house, Kim talked to me about being evicted from her house and that she was just going to stay there and make them kick her out.
Hmm… That sounded like some real ghetto section 8 type sh– to me, but hey, they live on the “non-ghetto” side of town, so no way could they have that type of stuff going on… LOL! Whatever.

Smart move. Mitt Romney has told everyone who he is and whose back he will be covering if elected from the jump. If you have a networth of less than $5 million, you’d be a fool to vote for him.

If you dont want to vote for these two, there are other presidential candidates in most states. This will be my first time voting for third party and im excited to be going away from the norm.

Oh yeah, I exercised my right this morning
I’m so pissed! I can’t wait to move away from az. So got a letter Saturday saying my (and my gf’s) voter registration was not put through because we didn’t provide proof of citizenship. We needed to send in a copy of a bc, passport, out of state dl. So I called and explained to them that we did mail copies of our dl’s from out of state like the document I got in the mail states. She says I may have gotten an old letter in the mail. Wtf? So the fact that I first registered to vote in AZ almost 10 years ago, then did so in RI doesn’t prove I’m a us citizen? Wtf does then? Now I have to go home at lunch get my letter and call back maybe then we can vote.
Hey luV & Naija-Boo!
@ Man – that hoof looks like it’s been floured and is ready to get dropped in some hot peanut oil. That BET NOT be your foot!
DeevaC… you can do a provisional ballot… don’t let them tell you that you can’t vote. Call this number 1-866-OUR-VOTE – it’s NAACP hotline
FAY-BOOOO!!!!
Gone change yo’ name to IWhip! But yes you do!
I need some peppermint Whip Sis, so I can do a twist-out.
Taking myself to the site at lunch.
Welp, I’m voting for Gary Johnson. Smh sucks that only Democrats and Republicans get through limelight. Johnson has great views and plans. I’d rather vote for him than the Pres.Obama or Romney. Thinking on how I can get third party candidates heard nationally in 2016….that’s one of my goals now.
Hey Milky! Thank you – the boy just did a flip! He likes to get rubbed and talked to. Typical male.
Deeva, keep pressing on yo!

@caramel thanks for the hotline number!

I see you got a flopper in there today
He is ready for the election! 
DeevaC, I hope that you staying stress-free still. And getting rest and eating fruits, and veggies
@doesn’t I’ve been eating my veggies like crazy, and more steaks. I’m pretty stress free too. I’m still tired though but overall Im feeling way better.
The picutre of him crying was from the night he spoke with his grandmother passed. Makes me want to vote for him again.
I listened to his whole interview on Steve Harvey this morning.
anyway, again all I will say is Reading Is Fundamental
sidebar: In Dallas 1000 votes did not count in early voting because people did not hit the submit button. People also are hitting all democratic or all republican straight tickets and thinking that will cast your Presidential ballot and it won’t. I haven’t read any comments above so, sorry if I have repeated info.
Oh Sandra… I knew you’d come around eventually (although I knew you felt this way this whole election season). The President may not be perfect (cause no man is) but he’s better than his opponent and that’s what matters this go round. I won’t even critique your post
