""""Sen. Barack Obama heads into his nominating convention in Denver next week on the skids:""""""
No its even worse, its 5-6 points ahead jerky.
Does this article seem like overt cheerleading for Obama?
Yes, it must move more to the Left...
Also, Obama was riding consistently high in the polls a couple of months ago, with leads as great as 12 points or more in some polls. His victory over a conservative septuagenarian after eight years of a Republican in the White House with gas prices at a record high, the dollar plummeting and the housing market in chaos seemed assured.
We all knew the race would tighten up as the campaign wore on. Even Hillary privately told lotsa super delegates that Obama couldn’t win the general election. She may have been right, we’ll see Nov. 4th. But the fact is that lotsa people are not the political junkies who follow every nuance of the campaign. Millions of voters are just now starting to pay attention as the conventions are coming up.
And the moderate/independent/swing voters, whatever term you want to use, will decide this election. I think it will be close. Obama will carry the northeastern states, the upper midwest, and the Pacific coast states. McCain will do very well in the south and the midwest/great plains states. It may all come down to Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Florida, Colorado, and Virginia, when you look at how the other states are lining up now in the state by state polls.
“Drift and complacency are dooming Obama’s campaign”.

Dear Lord ... Please, may it be so . Thank you Father that you hear me always. Amen.
The Obama campaign is suffering the usual fate of a relationship founded solely on projection ... the one projecting the hopes and desires upon the other, eventually awakens to the actual thing upon which the projections have been made ... as in ‘the bloom is off the rose’. We all know what dried, dead flowers look like and it ain’t pretty. Axelrod’s strategy got the projection screen past the Rodham rodent, but the emptiness is now becoming painfully obvious. There are still millions of stupid democrat voters who will vote fro the empty screen because they refuse to awaken to adulthood.
Astonishing. Either he’s working for hillary, or he represents an extinct species back from the grave: an honest reporter in the MSM.
There’s even this: “However, the mainstream U.S. media have magnified and even distorted McCain’s every hiccup and ignored the far more numerous gaffes from Obama.”
Of course, he never mentions any of Obama’s actual gaffes, but the entire article, except for one or two brief phrases, is a put-down of Obama as an inexperienced, weak candidate.
I love their analysis of Paris Hilton’s energy plan.
It’s because Obama’s GPS is stuck on “Turn Left!”
YES!!
Wonder how all those folks who dumped contributions on this guy will feel that they didn’t “buy” access to the White House but bought OBAMA a NEW house — or 3 or 4 — in Florida?
It is the neo-populist new generation that has been eating the rat party alive since 1968, yet somehow every time they destroy the party they disavow any blame and assume more of its kommossariats.
It made him look like a young man making fun of an old man.............And BTW, most of the real estate in this country is owned by old people. Not a good way to endear yourself to them..............
Obama’s plan of action??? Is this guy kidding? The best thing going for Obama is if he can keep all his radical, socialist ideas under the radar screen. That’s why we got “hope and change” and not “nationalize everything and disarm the military now.”
==> “If he doesn’t, his goose is cooked.” <==
MMMMM-MMM-MM! Roast goose, just in time for Thanksgiving....
>>When Hilton shows a greater, more confident and far more detailed mastery of one of the three key issues in the entire campaign than the Democratic nominee, he really has problems.
>>Most of all, Obama and his strategists never anticipated that McCain, with fewer financial resources and a far smaller, more informal staff, would prove energetic, aggressive and effective in his daily counterpunches at the Democratic candidate.
First point is a killer.
Second, just points out the myopic arrogance of Dem political consultants, they are surprised? They’re paid to anticipate surprises and WIN.
If Obama or Hillary had such a plan, they would have already introduced it in the Senate, where they sit...in some cases chairing committees or sub-committees.
What the author above is doing is instead *pretending* that Obama is an outsider...someone who could only introduce a plan after he becomes elected.
That's not the case.. Obama is currently a voting (well, when he deigns to show up) member of the Senate, where *all* such plans will have to pass.
So it isn't that Obama has a plan that he can begin to work on once he's in the White House...it's that he has no plan at all as witnessed by his current and past behavior in the Senate.
I have a real problem with the statement above. There are no facts that back up his conclusion. Most conservatives I know don't give a rip about race. They care about competence.
.LETS DRILL NOW...
That pretty much describes how it went in the Republican primary as well. Who really expected Senator mcCain to be the nominee in the first place?
