Obama now over 89 on Intrade. Time to double up again.

Let me see......

He’s broken every campaign law written.

His ACORN friends have extra registrants just in case.

They will bus every homeless drug addict to the polls and pay them with cigarettes.

The college kids have been indoctrinated by the warped professors and Obama is promising to pay their way through life.

They’ve scared the seniors (again).

The Liberal media has successfully squashed every negative news story on Obama.

They’ve destroyed the VP pick.

IF LAWS WERE ENFORCED AND OBJECTIVITY RULED THE LAND, DEMOCRATS WOULD BE EXTINCT.

“Vote for those candidates who have taken a stand for what’s righteous.”

No-brainer.
And I prefer to believe that most americans are on God’s side....therefore,we will win.

Low-information voters indeed. Most of us have more information available to us than the accumulation of every Democrat in Philadelphia.

As Howard Stern demonstrated, you can add Harlem to that.

Ho Hum. Another article that says if we don’t vote for Obama, it must be because we’re racist. They don’t even touch on the issues.

The liberals at Newsweek have conceded.

They’re setting it up to blame Obama’s loss on racism.

The MAIN problem is that MOST of the "LIVS", as the bald-headed left-wing Obama schill, Alter, calls them - have, or will, vote for Obama.

It's the lib-inspired dumbing down of America that works in the Socialists favor.

From the article: As it turned out, the real problem wasn't south Florida, where Hispanics came in surprisingly well for Obama. It was erosion in the critical I-4 corridor near Tampa and in the Panhandle, where the astonishing Republican margins among whites could be attributed only to race.

This is pure evil. The notion that this election is all about race -- and not about two very different views of how this country should be governed -- is intended to create anger or fear, depending on your skin color.

I disagree...McCain will carry IA and NV. The rest of the article is some what on target.

Unfortunately, there are many in the 75 million who want to vote for the winner
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

That drives me nuts! I want the person I vote for to BE the winner. I don’t vote for the person I think will win just so I can say I voted for the winner even if I can’t stand the person. Anyone who does so has no business voting.

Jonathan Alter is a bigot and a failure as a journalist. He might be right about the result -- McCain wins -- but the reason will be far simpler than he claims. It will be because a majority of the American people looked themselves in the mirror and said, "Do I realty want a laft-wing, empty suit as President of the US and leader of the Free World?"

Elizabeth Edwards finally found out that her "loving husband John was a lawyer who had developed the capacity to string words together so he thought he could get away with anything, anytime. It may just be that a working majority of the American people will discover at the last moment the same thing that Elizabeth Edwards has discovered about John.

If I’m a racist for voting against communism, call me a racist.

The complete idiocy of the left never ceases to amaze me.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I have finally come to realize that some people CHOOSE to be idiots! Anyone who opens one eye for five minutes could figure out what a farce Obama is and what a disaster he would be. You have to make a decision to willingly be a complete and utter fool before you can go out and try to elect this loser. Obama has done what I thought was impossible, he has made Bill Clinton look like a great man.

Low Information Voters = Jonathan Alter's politically correct terminology for Stupid voters. Don't they sound like Democrats?

Exactly.

The LIV are all voting for Obama. Anyone who understand how the real world works is informed and will be voting for McCain.

LOL. Obama has it by a landslide and you know it.

But we’ll be back and after Obama makes a fool of himself plagiarizing his way through four years in the white house — we’ll be back!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I DON’T believe Obama has it by a landslide. But if he wins with all his vote fraud we will NOT be back after four years of him. After four years of Obama any election will mean about as much as the ones they used to hold under Saddam Hussein. How could anyone believe otherwise?

“Hey, it all makes sense, doesn’t it?
Look, it’s GOING to happen.
So, relax and enjoy it already.”

...AFTER you pull the lever for McCain/Palin on Tuesday!
