Think about this. In what is supposed to be a Democratic washout year for the Presidential election.
McCain is leading now in National Polls! 4 years ago at this time, W. was way behind Kerry in the same polls. And this is after Barrack Hussain Obama has spent more money than any other candidate in a primary and has had more exposure than any other candidate since he is the darling of the media. Hussain should be ahead by 20 points, but he is not. Why not??
I surmise that the average white male is just not going to vote for this guy, no matter what. You can call that racist or whatever, but that looks to be the way it is. And there are going to be many Hilary lovers who will not vote for him either. It is because this far left whacko does not stand for what the average American stands for and really does not even understand who the Average American is. How could he??
I think that as Obama has to get more and more into policy and issues, less people will fall for his rhetoric. No one even knows what the guy stands for! And as they find out over the next few months, more and more will take off there blinders. The guy has got a free pass so far due to the media. He is a media driven candidate. Without the media, he is a has been.
I am a economist and money manager and with that background, I think the election comes down to this. If Americans are feeling the pain of a slow economy and high fuel prices, they are going to blame somebody. And that is usually the president. The uneducated, which includes most liberals, like to blame instead of think the problem through. So they will elect the other guy to try and make it better. Because of this, McCain should be pounding on Congress right now on behalf of the American people to allow exploration for more oil on our own soil, as we have more Oil in North America than any other place in the world. And now the price justifies going to find it. Instead the liberals sue OPEC. How stupid is that!!
It is still more than 5 months until the election. If markets stabilize which I feel they will, if the real estate market stabilizes, which it is, and if oil prices come down, Hussain is toast. If the average American in November thinks things are getting better, they will not experiement with Liberal whackos. But if things are not better, they will. It seems about every 20 years and every generation, America tries Liberalism. And after they live it and see the results, they don't want it anymore.
Liberals like to create problems and then act like Government will solve the problems for us. Many are falling for that now. McCain needs to remind the folks that as Americans with all we got going for us, we can solve our problems on our own. As long as we have low taxes, freedom, and government out of our lives, we will be fine. The last thing we need right now is another experiment in Liberalism!
Where does Obama’s money come from? It can’t be from capitialists, since Obama doesn’t know anyone who likes capitalism.
McCain voted against allowing drilling for more oil. Doesn't that make him even stupider than Obama? And we only have the most oil if you consider shale to be oil.
You got that right!
Now, after listening and watching the rantings of Obama’s black supremacist “preachers”, no sane white person is going to trust Obama and the “hate whitey” preachers he apparently supports. - If these guys want to see Obama elected, they are either stupid or else naive if they think no one is taping their rants, and they aren’t scaring “whitey”.
I don’t trust any of the three Democrats in the race.
McCain is going to win it and prove that Republicans don’t need conservatives.
It's pretty stupid. But with a vote of 324-84 was it a liberal thing?
Think about this. In what is supposed to be a Democratic washout year for the Presidential election.
McCain is leading now in National Polls!
I’d say that’s pretty consistent actually.
Is it not possible ever for a majority to be wrong?
Business so slow you signed up as a McCain poster? BTW how much do they pay you for these types of posts?
I think that they get a McCain coffee mug.
lol. A carbon neutral one?
I think it obviously is in this case. And undoubtedly in many other cases as well.
You may be right. If McCain wins in ‘08, consider the conservative movement on life support. Scary times we’re in.
Election is down to two. Yea Mccain is more liberal than we would like. So go ahead and vote for Osama and see where that leads to. If all the conservatives acted like conservatives that last 8 years, we would not be in this mess!!
Not yet. Obama just shot himself in the foot again and the DNC seated half the delegates in Mich. and Fl. and Hillary's surrogates are saying she still has the right to take the vote to committee in the convention.
Yea Mccain is more liberal than we would like.
McCain is incompetent, a liar, a weasel, a backstabber, a lout, a petty tyrant and more liberal than Arlen Specter.
If all the conservatives acted like conservatives that last 8 years, we would not be in this mess!!
If all Republicans voted conservative we wouldn't be in this mess.
I don’t think even his most ardent supporters believe he is a true conservative. McCain today = McCain of 2000 plus some rhetoric. As soon as a president gets into power, he will already be thinking about his legacy. Considering the Congress will be in Democratic hands for the foreseeable future, McCain will have no choice but to sell out on everything he has promised. He will not be able to deliver justices like Alito; you can forget about extending the tax cuts; there is NO way that he would veto new Medicare entitlements etc.
