Given McCain's bleak chances, would you take Hillary now?

Posted on 09/28/2008 8:33:11 PM PDT by FiscalConservative1985

I never thought I'd be saying this, but I wish Hillary Clinton could be President, given the alternatives. I'd take Hillary Clinton right now over a 25% chance of McCain winning. At least Hillary is experienced and cares about all Americans. Her tax policies would not have been near as bad as Obama's either. I think she would have governed in the centrist manner that Bill did. I hated the Clintons in the past, but if he had been serious on terrorism and had a better moral compass, I could call him a great President.

So my fellow conservatives, given the choice between a slim chance of a McCain victory or an assured Clinton Presidency, which would you choose?

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised at all, if Barack Obama does, at least, lurk on FR on occasion. On a similar note, I also wish that I had a way of seriously knowing whenever Rush Limbaugh, Laura Ingraham, Michelle Malkin, and Howie Carr, as well as many other prominent conservative individuals, were also lurking on FR-not that I’m seriously against their right to privacy or anything. :)

If McCain wins, i’ll gladly come back Nov. 5th and eat a major helping of crow. If Obama wins, he’s going to cost my family over a million in taxes, and the 45% estate tax will risk the survival of my family’s farm that we have owned for over 150 years. So excuse me for being a bit concerned about what is to come with an Obama victory.

O.K. so you’re a PUMA right? You may want to lurk a while, read, listen and learn. You’re starting your political life over and some of the garbage you’ve been fed all these years may take some time to get out of your system. Even Reagan started out as a Democrat until he saw the light and truth in Conservatism.

That being the case, it would seems that you should be a pretty motivated to do something about helping McCain win rather than fantasizing about a hillary presidency.

Please refer to post 115.

Stop posting, go away, no one likes you, you’re dumb, you’re gullible, you’re naive, you probably whine when you speak too.

Come back when you’ve grown up and become a conservative, your schooling is rotting your brain. If you were half as smart as you think you are we would ask you to stay.

I’ve been told by everyone here to ask you to go away, far away, we all agree, you’re ugly inside, you’ve wasted bandwith, you’re paranoid.

Please spend all your free time preventing terrorist attacks like you did in your first vanity.

MCCAIN won that debate, and just because he didn’t whip out some unforgetable comment doesn’t mean he did not do a good job. THE LIBERAL SPIN toward Obama has even begun to permeate FOX NEWS, and personally I am appalled that a network who was good at being Fair, has been corrupted.
McCain kept stating ‘CHECK OUR VOTING RECORD’ that was a great message.

If you people can’t grasp the seriousness of the trouble this country is in, I don’t know what to say. Obama has already shown, as a presidential candidate, that he has no regard for the First amendment. The actions he has taken in Missouri and Chicago are despicable. And, if it weren’t for DC vs. Heller, the 2nd amendment would be on the chopping block as well. It will be if he can tilt the SC with his appointees. I feel like, in times past, that this country would rise to the occasion and defeat Obama in the ballot box, but this country has been on a downward slide since WW2, with a brief respite during the Reagan administration. We will look back at WW2 at our finest hour. People are so pacified now that actions such as those taken during WW2 are next to impossible.

I don't think McCain is done yet. Two weeks ago, Obomba was down 20 in NC polls and now he's leading? The public mood is highly volatile, and a month + is a long way to go.

That being said, yes, I would rather have Hillary than Obomba. She doesn't have any weird cults/zombie followers, and Eugene Robinson/Roland Martin wouldn't be writing articles every week calling us racist for criticizing her.

“How about you just go away? Keep the crow.”

Well, we probably won’t be able to post on here much longer anyway with the Fairness Doctrine and the TruthSquads approaching on the horizon.

Oh my...we’ve got a large group of intercessors who have been praying over this election and will be fasting and praying for 40 days over this election. There are so many groups of this type doing this throughout this country. So...I’m putting my trust in The Lord...He’ll put His man in office. I know this is McCain/Palin. And Sarah has been told she is a Modern Day Esther.

rofl....
Your a newbie to politics aren't you. In every Presidential election that a Republican won, the Democrap challenger was always up by 15+ points even to election day.... MSM slams our side with bad news to keep you disheartened and take away your motivation to vote. Looks like their efforts are paying off concerning you! One more thing...don't pay any attention the October surprise they always dish out in the last week!
