If Christians believe that Obama's the 3rd Antichrist and part of bible prophecy why are they disobeying G-d?
by trying so hard to keep him from being elected?
I thought these people have been awaiting Armageddon and the second coming of Christ??
If this is truly prophecy isn't their resistance an abomination against G-d's will?

1. I don't believe he is. But if he is, what God has planned can not be stopped, whether we Christians oppose it or not.
2. What?!?!?
Christians don't believe in antichrists or that biblical prophecies are fulfilled in American politics. We're not awaiting Armageddon. You must be thinking of the fundamentalist wackos being courted by Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin.
What's more - your question assumes that Christians aren't supporting Sen. Obama. In fact, most American Christians *do* support him. Look at these polls released last week:

The only religious group in which Sen. McCain is leading is "White, Evangelical Protestant registered voters".
So, since over 80% of Americans are Christian, but perhaps only a third of Americans are "Evangelical Protestant" (and not necessarily white) [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_the_United_States ], it's pretty clear that most Christians are indeed supporting Sen. Obama.
Just look at the largest single religious body in the United States - the Roman Catholic Church (over a quarter of Americans are Roman Catholic). 49% of "White, Non-Hispanic Catholic registered voters" are supporting Sen. Obama and only 41% Sen. McCain. And among Hispanic Roman Catholic voters, Sen. Obama leads Sen. McCain by an astonishing 39 point margin! (Sen. Obama has only a 10 point lead among Christian Hispanic voters who are not Catholic.) [see http://www.gallup.com/poll/111301/Hispanic-Voters-Divided-Religion.aspx ]
3. Barack is a name in the bible just like cain.
