Obama is not a uniter. He is a divider. A little something he learned from the DNC.

In passing Rush made a similar statement, although he was making another point at the time. Just a gut feeling...I think McCain will have a huge win.

I was not going to vote for McCain until he selected Palin. But she has invigorated me! It’s worth putting up with McCain a while to get her in position to run for POTUS.
I’m wailin for Palin my friends.....

I really hope that we get blessed in this election and be spared an Obama presidency. I hope that McCain has two terms for the reason that I want Hillary to be too old to ever run. The way Hillary has lived her life, she won’t do well in her old age. She is angry and I hope she stews and can’t ever run again.

Mr. Obama is doomed to defeat.
This is the most powerful statement I've seen about the possibility that McCain will win the election.
The article does not speak of the "possibility" that McCain will win the election. It flatly states that McCain will win the election.

Right now it feels like there is a possibility - nay, a probability, based on the polls and on the betting odds - that Obama will win. On November 5 (presumably - there's always the example of FL 2000) that probability will collapse to zero or will explode to 100%. One or the other.

If you know that Obama will not win, you have already bet the farm against people who think that he will win. If you haven't done that, you don't know that Obama will lose.

And if in fact Obama does win, you not only will lose your bet, America will lose big time, and you with it. The fact that we would lose so much if Obama won may have motivated some people to hedge against that possibility by betting that Obama will in fact win. Thereby increasing the betting odds that Obama will win.

In reality a bet against Obama is a bet against the ability of Big Journalism to con the American people into voting for him. The fact that Big Journalism is a monopoly (due to the Associated Press, found by SCOTUS to be a monopoly in 1945) allows Big Journalism to promote its own interests in the guise of "objectively" promoting the public interest. And the interest of Big Journalism is in public regard for Big Journalism. Since the "capitalist system" and not Big Journalism provides us with our necessities, the interest of Big Journalism is to criticize, condemn, and complain about the capitalist system. The positive labels ("progressive," "liberal) assigned to socialists in America by Big Journalism are simply the symptom of the fact that socialists promote the same things that Big Journalism promotes.

From the reaction of the moonbats at KOS & DU along with the reaction of Big Media pundits, they think so too!

Bookmarked!

I am certain Obama will be a failure - I just hope that that failure comes BEFORE the election, not after.

I still remember the Carter years, vividly.

AOL Straw poll shows McCain winning all 50 states

AOL has a left-of-center customer base. Late Friday afternoon with over 350,000 responses, the poll had McCain-Palin at 63% and growing, with the electoral votes from all 50 states, and with Obama winning only DC.

The biggest risk in this election year is fraud.

McCain/Palin is a winner, but the Republicans need to be EXTRAORDINARILY vigilant about preventing ballot-stuffing, dead people voting, etc., this year. Obama comes from the Chicago political machine. Don’t forget that.

I think McCain should step down and hand over the reins to Fred Thompson, now that would be real positive change. Two real conservatives on the ticket.

Ouch' That's going to leave a hell of a mark.

Yet he is clearly a liar and a phony, a false messiah. He will not lead the Democrats - or the country - to the Promised Land: He has no credibility.

It is so nice to see in the press truth spoken without reserve

I’ve thought this from day one. Imagine the ads, if McCain has the guts to run them:

1. Picture of smiling Obama, with arm around Wright. Overlay of Obama’s quote that Wright is his mentor. Finally, close the ad with the actual audio of Wright saying “God d*** America” in that creepy loud voice.

2. Show Obama pictured with his movie star friends, followed by an overlay of his quote about rural people clinging to guns and religion.

3. Ad about the Baby Born Alive Act ... John McCain and his wife adopted from overseas, Gov. Palin’s quote about the perfection of her youngest child with Down Syndrome, followed by chilling quotes from Obama against the Illinois baby born alive act.

etc. etc.

The American Electorate has been given two very opposite candidates this year. On the far left we have the Obama-Biden ticket and on the conservative side we have the McCain-Palin ticket.

As Obama gets increasing exposure of his far left views, the McCain-Palin ticket will look even better to the undecideds in the middle.

We need to see more press coverage like: “””””There is also growing evidence Mr. Obama has had close ties with radical activist groups, such as the Gamaliel Foundation and the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN). Gamaliel and ACORN are hard-left community organizing umbrella organizations. Their goal is to destroy capitalism and corporate power through militant mass action. Documents now show that while he served as a board member of the Chicago-based Woods Fund, Mr. Obama played a pivotal role in funneling large grants to both groups. He has even continued his connections with Gamaliel while in the U.S. Senate. “””””””
