People start to see Obama differently from several months ago. Several things that work against him: people he’s connected to, his turn to the center a bit too fast, and his tendency for the grandeur before he is elected to the presidency.
Excellent article!
In other words, if you think he is insufferable now, just imagine what he will be like if elected.
Very telling. IMHO, Obama can’t win the election, but McCain or Bush (if he doesn’t stay out of the limelight) could lose it.
Has anyone seen that book “Obamanomics”? I almost fell over when I saw it at the bookstore. On the front it said it was the opposite of trickle down economics.
Interesting way of putting it.
Is Obama the Mcgovern of our era?

It’s the opposite of an idiotic strawman?

The article is wishful thinking. The four points about Obama mean nothing. Democrats will vote for him to get Republicans out. McCain will get most of the Republican votes, but some will skip that race. Independents who determine the outcome, will vote for Obama because they don’t want war and McCain means more war, plus they are sick of Republicans. They see McCain as old and another Republican and they won’t have it. They will trust Obama to stop war and give them health care and do something to bring down gas and food prices. McCain can’t speak well and Obama can. Add it up, Obama wins.
You are wrong, hun.
Your statement might be correct if Hillary were the nominee, but she isn’t.
Look, David Plouffe is the man steering Obamas campaign.
If the name means anything to anyone, thats because he engineered the Torricelli Switch for Lautenberg in the NJ Senate Race...long after the deadline had passed for the Dems to switch Senate candidates on the ballot...because Torricelli was losing to the GOP.
Well, ask yourself why *THAT MAN* Plouffe is now positioned for the same switch for Hillary.
The Dems finalize their nominee in August at their Denver Convention. Look for the Torricelli Switch there, or later.
Hillary will be the Dem candidate in 2008.
Suck it up, economics?
Very good and if so, it means sure and certain defeat, since she can't win without the usual 90% black vote and if it's 'No Bama', then many will stay home.
If the Media is going to amplify McCains weakness in Oratory then It is up to McCain to amplify the fact Obambi is afraid to face the very voters he wants, one on one to answer their questions . Like Ft. Hood for example ,McCain should say that at each and every microphone he speaks into

I do not see it happening successfully on a national scale. We are not talking about corrupt NJ politics and State Supreme Court and there is zero chance they could disqualify BO, let alone engineer a convention when Barry's crowd is preemptively moving his speech to a rally venue.
I actually see this as a major split in the Democrat Party. Combined with their stupid intransigence on drilling, they may marginalize themselves for a good long time.
I notice all four reasons have to do with Obama. McCain CANNOT convince conservatives to vote for him....only Obama can do that.
