I love that song. (But it ends with two strikes of the drum, not three!)

FReepers are perceptive!

Just yesterday I noticed that a majority of headlines managed to insert *plugs* and those that didn’t managed to find a place for it within the article.

I think that tells us exactly what the media really thinks of Biden.

I will be waiting for the democrat talking heads and their MSM to start pontificating how his speech at the convention will be ‘the most important speech of his career’ or do they only reserve those comments for President Bush?

“He’s got to be tough and hardheaded and honest about what he’s going to do.”

That alone should do it for McCain as > 50% of Americans realize that Obama will tax and spend the US economy into a real recession, not the fake recession the MSM whines about. To know Obama is to understand he would be dangerous to America.

“In a way, I feel sorry for Obama. He’s been duped by Soros, Moore, Oprah, etc. into believing he’s something other what he really is.”

That’s what my wife said to me yesterday. Obama is in over his head, and it is likely dawning on him that he has been set up.

Actually, the three strikes on the drum throughout the song are:

BOOM boom-BOOM.

And it ends with boom-BOOM.

The public liked Obama 1.0.

Then they saw Obama 2.0 and changed their minds.

The Democrats and their lackies in the media are hoping that the public buys Obama 3.0 this week and doesn’t get a tinge of buyer’s remorse until December at the earliest...

The more I look at Obama, the more I see Robert Redford’s character in “The Candidate.” If Obama wins, I fully expect him to turn to a flunky and ask, like Redford’s all style-no substance character at the end of the film, “what do we do now?”

"traditional Americans"

Obama's disconnect with the yearnings of average Americans was best depicted with his arugula remark. Most Americans have no idea what arugula is. If had said "where are the pork rinds", he would have connected. But I'm sure (even as hard as he tries to depict himself as an average American) he wouldn't understand the problem.
