“They are not voting for McCain and Palin, they are voting against Obama.”

You are so right.

I went and saw Joe Lieberman talk the other day.

The woman who talked before him was a Hillary supporter, before Hillary got knocked down by the Magic Nergro. She gave a great speech. She was just a stay at home Mom, who has switched to McCain and became head of the Citizens for McCain NV leader.

“Citizens for McCain” was founded by Sen. Joe Lieberman and is an organization within the McCain campaign for people who put country before party and support the candidate for President who has a proven record of bipartisanship.

She told how thousand like her are putting country first before party and they are very scared of B. Hussein Obama stating that they did not know or trust Obama.

Even if Hillary gets put on as VP they are not voting for Obama.
But they do love Hillary and will vote for her if she runs in 2012.
We have a lot to thank Joe Lieberman for, for giving these people a place to call home while they fight like we do for our beloved country.

God Bless America and God Bless these people who put country first.
I thank Joe for being a true patroit and I even thanked his wife for always being such a classy lady, which she always has been. She said she really appreciated that comment.

Maybe four years of Sarah charming the country as VP will change their mind (a smiling, focused woman vs. a grim-faced one with a blackboard scratchy voice).

“Bipartisanship” is fine, as long as it’s really two-way and not a result of them teaming up and screwing us. Bipartisan decidedly does NOT mean Republicans compromising and giving in to the Dems demands; for too long, that is how it has been. Our side backs down, and their side advances the socialist agenda.

IMHO, It’s not good when they agree on ANYTHING - WE end up taking it up the wazoo; RINOS and Dems agreeing is always dangerous to our liberty. That is why we need people who will FIGHT for our side in the Senate and House; otherwise, they are useless to us (e.g., Collins, Chaffee, Snow, Graham, Foley, Specter, etc).

Especially on gun issues - I WANT them figthing each other, as long and as loudly and vehemently as possible; at the very least, it means that we actually have some people on OUR side for once. At best, it means gridlock, and nothing gets done, and we get to keep what’s in our wallets and savings...

McCain has always been too ready to work with the Dems and that is what has always worried me with him; Palin will be Senate president, and will be a friend to us there, so that really helps us. But I believe him to actually BE a patriot in the sense that he’s trying to what’s best for his country.

Oblabma is decidely not...

As for Lieberman - he’s voted for every Dem anti-Second Amendment bill that came up, thereby violating his oath to “uphold, protect and defend the US Constitution”. He’s no patriot in my mind. He became an independent only because his party pissed him off, and he likes being the center of attention as the swing vote on issues.

The day he sponsors a bill or votes to repeal some of the egregious anti-Constitutional gun-laws, well, then that’s the day I’ll call Lieberman a patriot. Until then, he’s just another socialist hack in my book.

Either way, don’t start celebrating until we see what happens.

Cautious Optimism is the watchword.

I wonder how the pollsters are factoring in this phenom. Let's see if I can create a math problem. In the last presidential election the democrats got 59 million votes, Bush 62 million. The base is fired up and ready to rock so I expect gop turnout to be as hight this time.
Okay, if 40 million are registered democrats about 40% of the total electorate, and 90% voted for Kerry that's 36 million votes. Hillary got 18 million democrat votes this year. I think these are pretty much your hard core wackos. If 5% of her motley crew vote McCain/Palin that's a 1.8 million vote swing. If another 5% don't vote at all,obama loses 900,000 votes. So a 2.7 million vote swing could lead to a McCain electoral landslide win.
I really wonder when Rass or Zogby, Gallup do their ‘scientific’ polls if they figure the hillary faction is going to come around and support the messiah. And give him the benefit of the doubt that he'll get 90% or more of the democrat base. He won't.
