Does this mean he will let them hang 'loose' in their voting, or will he 'lose' them to some other personage? Sure makes a difference to an inquiring mind....
what is it with so many people spelling lose with two Os (loose) lately? i see it often. another common mispelling is possessive its spelled it's--the contraction for it is. i'm glad i'm not the only one who notices. ;)

What's sad is when you know the difference and still make the mistake.
The standards for journalism have dropped since anyone can become a reporter.
isa dont like spellan nazees. :) Just kidding. I didn't even notice the spelling mistakes until you pointed them out. Obama will lose the black vote when pigs fly.
I dunno, Chrissie. Generally, I just grit my teeth and go on.....figuring perhaps their fingers are typing faster than their brain has engaged. I know on occasion I do goofball things like not spell=checking, or hitting the 'it looks good, lets run with it button' before proofing. Of course, there are others who have spell checkers, but the words lose and loose are both legit-- unless you have some sort of program to differentiate usage. And then, there is the old pubic edicasion system methud of spelin--doesn't matter if it is speled rite sew long as u feel gud abot it. Me-- hell, I can't even use drinking as an excuse. Having been a secretary for many years, and an office manager who wouldn't let spelling errors leave the office under the 'john henry' of my boss make errors stand out probably moreso than the rank and file.
What is it with people who can't seem to find the shift key on their keyboards? :-)
