So is it your understanding that people who support Obama are uninformed? Isn't it just possible that people who support Obama are very informed? It is a risk to support a candidate who has less experience and there may be reasons for people to choose the candidate with less experience over the candidate with more experience.
As I sit here I am watching Fox New Saturday and even the McCain spokesman, Rick Davis, is being very negative and aggressive - he seems unwilling to answer questions but very willing to continue to attack. Still spewing Ayers attacks. I am so tired of this pointless, negative line of attack. If anything this drives me further from McCain - I might be willing to vote for Mickey Mouse over McCain at this point.
I said I wondered if many who support him are on a bandwagon. Not all, I know there are people who do actually do research, but I can remember my first voting experience, I know I, along with many others my age that I knew, we really didn't care about the candidates and just voted for whomever seemed to get the most coverage and most popular. So to answer your question, no I don't believe that anyone who supports Obama is uninformed, but yes, I do believe there are also many out there who support him but they don't know why.
Don't you think that line of reasoning applies to both sides? Don't you think that many of McCain's supporters are there simply because he is the republican candidate? As a young voter I just pulled the republican lever - back when there were levers! It wasn't until I was older that I actually researched the candidates. Perhaps it boils down to which candidate has the most young voters?
What exactly did you find so interesting ? One could find similar pictures of McCain or Palin or Bush or Clinton, or heck, some random person from the phone book and interspersed them with the Hitler pictures.
I'm sure there are plenty of pictures of McCain speaking before a crowd, or shaking hands with people or standing at a podium that could look vaguely similar to the Hitler pictures.
Oh wow, what a big revelation, Obama has the same number of elbows as Hitler, he MUST be a Nazi, this is PROOF POSITIVE. (OK, sarcasm off)
As another poster said, this is a poor reflection on YOU, and a perfect EXAMPLE of the lack of substance in those who wish to attack Obama.
"Well I have seen quite a few smear posts from you. Let me start counting the McCain Palin incite hate posts from you."
Your justification for posting hatred seems to be that others do it. Even assuming others "do it" too or "do it" to anywhere near the same degree (which they clearly don't), two wrongs do not make a right.
And by the way, please point to a post where I have done anything so hateful as accuse McCain of being a Nazi.

Very weak link you posted there.
No one is suggesting that you made the video, but you posted it with only the comment "Interesting pictures".
So tell us, what do you think is so interesting, and why did you choose to post such garbage ?
