With both Rasmussen and Gallup showing Barack Obama moving backwards even before the Republican Convention dropped its balloons on Andrea Mitchell, one can excuse the Democratic nominee for hearing footsteps. How desperate has he gotten? Looks like he’s playing the race card once again:
“And I know that the temptation is to say, ‘You know what? …The guy hasn’t been there that long in Washington.,’ You know, ‘he’s got funny name,’ You know, ‘we’re not sure about him,’” Obama continued. “And that’s what the Republicans, when they say, ‘This isn’t about issues, it’s about personalities,’ what they’re really saying is, ‘We’re going to try to scare people about Barack. So we’re going to say that you know, maybe he’s got Muslim connections or we’re going to say that, you know, he hangs out with radicals or he’s not patriotic.’ “I know that I’m not your typical presidential candidate,” Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., told executives and employees of the Schott glass company Friday afternoon, “and I just want to be honest with you. I know that.”

A whole company dedicated to making shot glasses. Wow.
THE TRUTH FRIGGEN HURTS, don’t it, Obama?
He IS unpatriotic, refuses to put his hand over his heart when the national anthem is played, and does indeed have terrorist and communist connections.
It is not attacking someone to tell the truth about them.

What do blue lips signify? I frankly have never seen them before on a human being.
This line doesn't play well when people are already sensing a lack of confidence.
Only when he has a teleprompter. Otherwise, that cockatiel that was yelling for help looks eloquent compared to him. Uh, um, you know, um.
You are 100% exactly right. And heaven forbid he somehow does get elected, watching him try to play that card against say Putin or Ackhamangahajabad will only humilate the US in the world;s eyes. Most of the rest of the world wouldn’t put up with crap like “the race card”. If race is ever not going to be the issue it has to stop being raised when things don’t go the way someone doesn’t want it to go. We cannot as a country be asked to be color blind on one hand and then told we’re rasict when we are color blind.
Wow, it’s just so obvious that man cannot get elected, there are so many weaknesses that WILL get exploited by other leaders who know he’ll have no gumption to stand up for our country.
Yep, sure sign of RCA (Race Card Addiction). He fell off the wagon. Back into treatment in Hawaii.
You know? That, like, really bothers me too, you know?
I thought maybe it was the orphan card. Even John McCain has a mother still alive, Sarah Palin has both parents, but poor Barry has no one but his typical white grandparents.
““I know that I’m not your typical presidential candidate,”
Actually, he is. Imagine Dukakis as tall as Carter, with the same tired failed policies.
Or even Walt Mondale, realizing he’d lost a month before the election, and still having to go through with it.
I don’t know what he’s referring to.
“Hi, I’m Barack Obama. Once you get to know me, you’ll be scared to death.”
I know.
“What do blue lips signify?”
In most cases....Death.
Smoking perhaps. For kicks, I googled "blue lips smoking" and, strangely, Obama's blue lips have an interest. :-)
He writes in his book "I will stand with the muslims."
Obama will play the race card long and hard to make sure there will be riots in the streets if he loses. I lived just northeast of Detroit in 1964 when they lit the town up. It made the night sky glow.
...PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN..THE GREAT AND WONDERFUL OZ HAS SPOKEN.
