“...200,000 adoring Germans in Berlin[.]”

Didn’t we win the war?

Actually they heckled/mocked him. Listen closely to the crowd.

“The key to understanding the presidential campaign as it enters its phase of maximum intensity is this. The more the campaign is about the concerns of the American voter, especially the state of the economy but also the general anxiety about the direction of the country, the more likely they are to throw the Republicans out”

Except for energy costs and drilling for new oil. Dems have a problem here and Republicans have to capitalize on it. They need to tie the cost of gas and heating oil to the economy and blaim it on the Democrat/environmentalists.

But as cruel geography and the selfish designs of the American Founding Fathers would have it, Europeans don't get to choose the US president.

Har. Made my day with that one...

This is the same writer who penned the brilliant biblical parody about the One, the Messiah Obama.

I agree with this comment from the website...

Obama will not win. In spite of all the discontentment with the current Republican president & the lackluster campaign of grumpy old John McCain, Obama is running even with McCain! And don't forget, White people lie in polls when race is an issue. The reality is that Obama is already behind.

The Bradley effect will come into play when the voters enter the privacy of the voting booth. From what Ive read it can amout to as much as 10 percentage points.

"...simply being willing to talk to your enemies, as Senator Obama sometimes seems to suggest, isn't going to keep your people safe."

Obama is a loser and will lose big time.

You can add socialism to the mix as well.

From "An American Expat in Southeast Asia"

"...For the advocates of this perverse militant egalitarianism, reasoned argument is replaced by a conditioned reflex as Obama's legions of lickspittle automatons mindlessly parrot as "evidence" whatever Obama himself has written in any one of his own self-serving books. You see this has never been about the free interchange of ideas or even the ascertainment of truth, this is all about entitlement and nothing not even freedom or liberty is going to get in the way...."
