Why Obama Is In Trouble
me | 9/12/08 | Knitting a Conundrum

Posted on 09/12/2008 9:50:54 AM PDT by Knitting A Conundrum

I know why Obama is in trouble. Non-political guys like my husband are all of a sudden excited! He's been reading news stories he finds to me. This morning, he told me "Palin has the most charisma of any leader he's seen since JFK."

He's come a long way. He still won't say anything really positive about Reagan, but when he said that, my mouth dropped open. It's reactions like that all over the country which are being reflected in the polls. Way to go!


TOPICS: Politics
KEYWORDS: middleamerica; obama; palin
Yeah, this is a vanity, but OMG! I was totally amazed when he said that to me this morning...but I'm happy. It's a step in the Right direction! LOL.

(He also didn't blink an eye when I told him I had donated a couple of hundred to the cause. In fact, he approved. Keep stepping on Middle America, Obama! I love it!

Obama is looking more and more like a short-order cook in a greasy all-night diner, dishing up leftover Biden stew.

Yes, but the Left thinks and says the same of Obama.

That's GREAT to hear...I am sure that's the trend all over the country, no matter what the stupid liberals and MSM would want US to believe.....

Even my daughter (who is a vegetarian, atheist, liberal, eco-wacko, anti-gun nut) who has met Palin many times at business meetings thinks VERY HIGHLY of Palin...probably, because they are both professional, young, beautiful and tough as nails on issues.

Sorry, but I'm going to have to pull a Biden and plagiarize that line!

My wife...my WIFE, after enduring campaign after campaign that I've been a part of...never of interest to her, really...

came to me the other day...her idea

...to get McCain/Palin yard signs....

NEVER saw that coming!

Got her a Palin doll as a surprise, too!

Obama only excites liberals while Palin excites the right AND the middle AND many who don’t normally vote. And there are far fewer liberals than conservatives. We will not be able to fully quantify the Palin Factor until the day after the election.

You and lotsa other FReepers. I would not be surprised to see my "short-order line" lifted by the MSM. It's that good.

"Let me get this straight. So you're saying Sarah and Cindy are bringing
elegance back to the White house, and Barack and I are not? Bummer.

The significance is hubby tunes out politics...but with Palin, not only is he paying attention, he’s excited. And that was the amazing thing. And from what I see, he’s not the only one...

And the more Obama and the left attack, the more it looks like he’s attacking professional women and mothers...and I suspect he alienates a few more with each foot in mouth...
