I was just at the DU and there are a few posts that suggest they are catching on that they are digging their own grave.

Arguing that a lightly experienced man is not only qualified to be POTUS, but may in fact be the messiah, and then turning around and suggesting that a lightly qualified woman is a dangerous risk who is completely unqualified for VP literally screams of sexism.

It has been so funny to see gender politics being used against the RATs for a change.

Many "old time" democrats are seeing that this "new democratic" party is not what they had in mind & that it is going in a horrible direction.

I knew Greta & her husband were staunch democrats & worked for the dem. party for years, but this is HUGE that he is going to support John McCain, but does show that old time dems. are not believing in BO's change!!!

Wow!

John is a decent man who realizes his party has moved much too far to the left. He's putting his efforts into recruiting Democrats for McCain.

Thank you, Greta's husband! :)

Something tells me the RATS as DU will hit bottom and keep digging. They are the Robin to the KOS Batman and can't do anything unless they are told to. Hence, they'll keep digging. Mark my words and this post. If you think the prego issue is the worst they can parrot, get yer hip waders on.

I was just at the DU and....

“...and the police have gone total Fascist in St Paul”

I’m not sure what is happening in St Paul, but after watching the video of the ABC reporter being arrested for being on the sidewalk in Denver to photograph the dims lobbyists and donors, I’d say the fascist’s police were operating in Denver.

Interesting comment beneath the article:

For each person defecting from Hillary to McCain, there are likely ten people defecting the other way

LOL! Talk about being lost in the Ozone.....

Defections from Ferraro and now her, Outstanding

Ferraro? Did that happen today? A couple of days ago she said she wouldn't vote for McCain.

[Clintonfatigued]

This comes on the heels of a near-endorsement from Geraldine Ferraro.

First of many.

Absolutely, the Democrats are running from these moveon.org Obama types.  The sexism, racism and now slamming the Palins because their daughter didn't take the liberal way out and slaughter the baby.  The liberals are offending every wing of their party.  Expect to see the Obummer limping to the polls.

I love watching the folks at DU, they are literally all over the board. Some are currently attacking Palin's daughter while others on the same post attack them for attacking her. One thing is certain, they are very annoyed at his choice for Palin as it is splitting their base.
The irony is that Obama's mom was an unwed mom. Had abortion been available to her, her liberal roots suggest she may have exercised her "choice".
One thing we learned this week, Michael Moore and Democrats finally understand that is a God. I wonder if they'll add Him to the curriculum in public schools?

With all this ‘trashing’ of women by the Obambitans it looks like perhaps there IS a radical islamist behind his facade of goons....acting like the holier-than thou Taliban.
If he wins watch out women...you will all be dressed in burqas.

There’s a transcript online. She said she is undecided.

[50cal Smokepole]

Wow, that's interesting to say the least. And here I thought I wouldn't be doing much FReeping today b/c it'd be a slow news day. Shows what I know.

Don't laugh. Here is a picture of some of them.

WTG, Mr. Greta! Now if Greta herself, whom I like, would also see the light.
