They Whisper To The Priest, "Father, I'm Not Going To Vote For Obama"
The Patriot Room ^ | October 18, 2008 | Bill Dupray

Posted on 10/18/2008 2:32:25 PM PDT by Bill Dupray

From Seattle to San Diego, from Burlington, Vermont to New York City, from New Orleans to Texas and Midwest towns like Cleveland, I am hearing hushed admissions of a terrible sin: “Father, I’m not going to vote for Obama.”

Then I look at the polls. Nationally and in battleground States, Senator Obama is thrashing Senator McCain.

So what gives?

Pollsters would tell me it’s all very simple. Anecdotal evidence, like my experience on the road, isn’t really evidence at all. It is not trustworthy because it is not scientific. The divergence between what people are telling me and the polling data must be that I run in closed circles. People of like minds talk to me; the others don’t.

Very logical…unless…unless people don’t want their neighbors (or pollsters) to know they aren’t voting for Obama.

I am referring to something else — the fear of talking to pollsters, or to your neighbor, or to anyone else about not wanting to vote for Barack Obama because of what he stands for.

Do you have doubts? How would you like to get up in front of a crowded theater in a mixed neighborhood and say you are going to vote for McCain? What respectable person wants to risk being considered a racist or a war monger or a fan of President Bush or an enemy of change? Many good people would like to see a black man as our president, or even a Democrat to be our president, but don’t want Barack Obama.

Tell them nothing. At all.

Stock up prior to election day. On whatever.

Be ready, folks, and be ready for the end of 100 days if 0 is elected, for that is when the laws will beging to be felt.

‘Who would get up in a mixed crowd and dare admit they were voting for McCain?’ ????

Have we come to this? We want to be LIKED so much that we will not dare speak the truth?

That is very, very pathetic.

Look what Obama and his thugs have done to Joe the Plumber. Why would anybody admit in public that they’re not going to vote for the Messiah? To be called a racist, to be hounded and intimidated, to be destroyed like they tried to do to Sarah Palin. No thanks. I’ll vote for McCain and leave it at that.

No one wants to tell the pollsters the truth anymore. When I was young, dad told me, the dimocrats KKK can threaten, send squad cars down the streets, bull horns blazing vote for the dim, they can wait outside, but they can never know how I voted.

This is subject to change of course, if Obama wins and installs the new union thug Chicago voting rules nationwide -- sign here please.

Then we get the village of the Obamatrons ... And our dear leader for life.

How could any religious person vote for a guy who believes in infanticide, on top of what we already know about his character?

The Kool-Aid drinkers are mentally deranged. Confronting them in what we would think as a normal debating type manner with them could devolve (i.e. they getting physical), if you have assets, you put yourself at extreme risk. It is not worth it to end up in a he-said she said in a court of law. It may be prudent to run silent and deep....

Look what they did to Joe the Plumber. The MSM went after him with both barrels - and he was a private citizen. I can see where people would be uneasy. Liberals don’t extend their well known “openness” to anyone who disagrees with them...

"How would you like to get up in front of a crowded theater in a mixed neighborhood and say you are going to vote for McCain?"

In a mixed theater I would have no problem doing it. But where I live I would more than likely be the only white in the theater. In my district I suspect I will be one of the very few who don't cast their ballot for Obama.

We want to be LIKED employed and not vandalized and not threatened so much that we will not dare speak the truth?

I have noticed it a lot everywhere, friends of mine even on internet forums are afraid to openly support McCain out of fear that they will be targeted by either Obamanuts, the thuggery or even the Secret Service or FBI. Some forums are experiencing an unheard of amount of traffic trying to slow them down or disrupt them.

Obama learned a few things about the last battle with Hillary and is using that against us.
