The combination of the “energized young” vote and the “white guilt” vote will make him very tough to beat, IMO.
Let Socialism be implemented by the rodents, that way they get full credit for the fiasco. I don’t want the Republican party to be crippled by a Socialist RINO President who will divide our party, enact the rodent agenda, and eviscerate our numbers in elective office down to Depression-era levels. Of course, we could avoid those ghastly scenarios if we’re smart enough to nominate the only viable Conservative, Fred Thompson.
I don’t know. Edwards has polled as a win against any of our candidates.
Check his record before you think he can win a general election. No, not impossible, but unlikely for sure. He’s a radical leftist. Those types don’t fair well in national elections.
And just which whites are those?All of Dem. whites I`ve spoken to hate him,to them he`s a N-word r*g-head, and many have openly said they`ll stay home if he`s their Presidential candidate.These are guys I`ve at times almost gotten into fights with over my support for GW,rank and file union rats.I think he`ll cause a serious drain of blue collar whites at the polls,so much so,I tried to post a thread about my idea of raiding their primaries in critical states,the moderator pulled it before anyone could even consider the idea.
He has the sort of surface charisma that can sway much of the simple minded Oprahfied electorate, but he can only win if the MSM succeeds in concealing his radical semi-Marxist Fabian socialism.
He reminds me of Jesse Jackson, who was also popular in various midwestern states but didn’t even get on the ticket, in the end.
I think that if he seems to be a serious contender, his record and associates (such as his black power “church”) will come to light, and then I doubt there will be a non-black person in the country (well, except for some self-hating Jewish and Catholic liberals) who will vote for him. And even if all the blacks in teh country voted for him, that’s not enough to elect him.
Plus, I’m sure there are many blacks, even black Dems, who are not thrilled with either his covert Muslim persona or his radical leftism.
It is because he can’t handle himself in a debate. He looks dumb.... so he is a passionate idiot. Like all liberals.
He is an easy candidate to beat.
I don’t see how any of the dem candidates will be “easy” to beat. Hillary got 3rd last night and had double the votes huckabee had. We are in trouble. That state used to be RED!
This may be my only comment on Obama, or any of the candidates, save one I posted long ago.
I had never seen him speak until last night and I was appalled. You nailed it when you said Jesse Jackson. That’s exactly who he sounded like to me. And I can’t stand Jesse Jackson.
He screamed and preached and *served self* with his “this great moment in history” rhetoric about his divine destiny, yada yada.
Barf!
Timer, I love you, man, but I'm not going to buy into or subscribe to the media and establishment bullcrap talking points, and you shouldn't either. This man is our ONLY shot. We fail to support this man, and the election is all over. We will deserve the very worst the rodents will put up because we were so pig-ignorant stupid not to vote for a once-in-a-generation bonafide statesman. I will not vote for anyone else (unless it's Duncan Hunter or a suitable and principled Conservative), and that's that. As I said not so long ago, you keep voting for people that violate your sense of conscience (as Rudy McRombee are the embodiment of), and you lose your soul.
The main thing that scares me about Obama winning(other than his name and early education), are visions of Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton jumping on the bed in the Lincoln bedroom in the White House.
Disagree. Obama has droves of young acolytes and sheeple on his side that will gratify themselves at the drop of a hat. Has formidable as Hillab*tch will be, Obama is perhaps moreso because of how many dumb, idealistic kids love him.
I'm not so sure about that comment. There's plenty of racism to go around. "Kwaanza Socialism?" WTF? Obama's got plenty of negatives to discuss without resorting to cheap shots like that. What does that even mean? What does Kwaanza have to do with anything?
