Powell? The same Powell who’s done nothing for McCain this whole campaign? Who didn’t appear at the convention. Who’s said nothing on his behalf? WHat has Powell done for McCain? If Powell had promised him an endorsement if he held back on Wright, I could see that. But he’s laying off because he doesn’t want to upset someone who’s done nothing for him and who by all accounts will endorse Obama tomorrow???

McCain will be called a racist whether he wins or loses.

Obama: We would've won by an even great margin, 3 points more, if it weren't for the racist tactics used by the Republicans during the campaign

YES. BRING OUT WRIGHT. PLAY THAT DISGUSTING ‘GD AMERICA’ TAPE
24/7!!
He preached white hate and America hate to Obama for twenty years!! And Obama has NEVER disavowed the Black Liberation Theory.
The Black Liberation Theory reads in part, ‘They (whites) must be destroyed by any means possible’. Were you all aware of that?
Obama, just like all new members, was given a copy of this BLT when he joined Trinity United. He pledged to uphold it, just as all members must do.

Flood McCain out with emails. DEMAND he fight back HARD- name names!

Flood out the MSM. DEMAND that they put the TRUTH before the American people. Send the videos/articles.

McCain’s anemic attempts to fight Obama back is losing this election.

Please go to

and pick up all the email addresses to the McCain camp and HUNDREDS of emails of MSM.

I want the 527s to put the Wright rants in ads. I have been trying to understand where Mac has been coming from in his campaign (putting aside whether I agree with it all ot not) and I am of the opinion he will not change his mind now, and by not playing the Wright card, he sidesteps the race card. That is where he is coming from.

Let the 527s do it. They can do an awesome job. hire the same firm the NRA used to do its commercials.

WHERE ARE THE 527s??
ARE THEY INTIMIDATED BY OBAMA’S GESTAPO, TOO?

He won’t do it because of Colin Powell.


Agree, and its ridiculous.

But if Powell endorses Obama tomorrow in the Sunday shows, Mac should release the 527 hounds and crank up the gospel according to Jerry.

In theory (IN THEORY), a Powell endorsement of McCain would be significantly more beneficial tomorrow than it would have been earlier in the campaign. We are at the moment when the undecideds are really starting to pay attention and firming up their decisions. This is what's causing all the fluctuations in the polls.

Hypothetically speaking, if Powell endorses McCain tomorrow McCain gets a HUGE boost. But if Powell goes further, basically says "I know John McCain isn't a racist and anyone who says he is should be ashamed of himself", and maybe even takes a swipe a Wright, then I think the election is probably over and McCain wins.

Now I don't know what Powell is really going to do. I don't think anyone knows, except perhaps Powell and Alma. But I do think it's important to throw out a plausible scenario that contradicts the CW that he's coming out for Obama. We'll know for sure soon enough ...
