upstart, walking right out of college and into a position without a lick of hard knocks or humbling pragmatic necessity to be his guide

hey, hey; he's an experienced COMMUNITY ORGANIZER. AND A CONTITUTIONAL SCHOLAR AND PROFESSOR.

What more could the real-life version of President Barrett need?

I understand he may win, but I have a hard time seeing Barak Obama as President. Leaving aside that he is so liberal, I get the impression many of his statements and appearances are on unimportant or trivial subjects. That we should all learn a foreign language, stay in school, perform community service. It’s all nice, but this constant advice-giving diminishes him in my eyes, and I’m thinking in the public at large. Further, if he’s not in a set speech format, he’s pretty weak in Q&A. The author of the article may be onto something.

Could 2008 Be a McCain Landslide?

Snort. I'd like some of what the author's smokin'...

Two words: Pyrrhic victory :(

I don’t think it will be a landslide either way but I could see McCain getting a solid win if the states that were close in 2000 and 2004 but eventually swung Democrat swing this time for McCain. In 2000 Bush won the super close race in Florida but lost the other close elections and again in 2004 won Ohio but lost the other close elections (Florida was not that close in 2004).

I really wish McCain would drop out and someone I could truly support be nominated in his place. But that isn't going to happen, unfortunately, and I have to contemplate doing something I said I'd never do again: vote for McCain.

McCain could never do or say anything at this point that would make me want to vote for him, but Obama can and does daily. Obama is a truly clueless and therefore a very dangerous politician who should NEVER be President. The race industry will take such a statement and claim it is racist, but Obama's ignorance and general stupidity has nothing to do with race. Obama is a puppet and whomever is pulling his strings should not be giving control of this country.

With two of the worst nominees ever now vying for the presidency, anything can happen. As more people begin to realize what a lightweight Obama is, his support could drop off to nothing but those who’d never vote for anyone but a Democrat, and there could be a McCain landside.

Then again, if McCain comes off as too old and too tired, and if he continues to offend conservative Republicans, Obama could win by a comfortable margin.

Either man is capable of major screw-ups, during the campaign or in the Oval Office.

I predict that McCain will win by a huge margin. You may take that prediction with the knowledge that I also predicted huge wins for Bush in '00 and '04.

Then Obama would lose and I wouldn’t be forced to hold my nose and vote for McCain?

That would be nice!

McCain wins big because Obama represents the political correctness that Americans are so sick of.

Landslide?

Landslides come from people who have bold ideas that inspire people to action.

Landslides don’t come from people who garner support from being “less bad than the other guy”.

All very well and good. However, it all falls apart if Obama does fall in time for the DNC to eject him and throw in a ringer. If I'm not mistaken, they've done it before.

At any rate, if we get McCain, it's not much of a win. Either way we fill up with illegals and we get a liberal for a president.

A combined list from another thread:
1. The District of Columbia gets 2 Senators...these will ALWAYS be Democratic seats...no filibustering Obama’s change..

2. Terminate the Electoral College..no Redstate Rednecks gonna tell Blue State socialists how its gonna be...

3. Pack the Supreme Court. Thats how FDR got his change...3 more justices ought to do it....BTW..they’ll make Maxine Waters look like John Birch.

4. Fairness Doctrine.Outlaw Dissent. The only point of view you need is the ‘Bamaview....

5. Tax increases tanks the economy.
6. Energy policy cripples the economy.
7. Defense policy threatens national security.
8. Space policy ensures we won’t see the threats coming.
9. Foreign policy transfers U.S. sovereignty to the U.N.
10. Foreign policy transfers U.S. wealth to the U.N.
11. The best healthcare system in the world will be destroyed.

Given that:

Obama is the media darling.
Obama has spent and raised more money.
Obama is young and McCain is old.
McCain has run a lack luster campaign.
McCain does not call Obama on Obama misstatements.
McCain is pissing off his base.

The tracking polls on 7/13/08 are a virtual tie (Rasmussen)which tells me that Obama is in some trouble. McCain may win 40 states.
