These are wildly uncertain times. Americans will go with the most certain candidate in the race: John McCain.
Try as he might, Obama has yet to knock McCain from that position. Now is not the time for ‘on the job training’.
And it most certainly is not the time for someone who is one step removed from Hugo Chavez, Louis Farrakhan, and every other piece of sh*t left winger on Earth. Take your little revival act and hit the road, Barack.
I have nothing but contempt for “undecided” voters.
They are either too stupid to know who to vote for, too lazy to find out who stands for what, or too dishonest to own up to their already existing decision.
If someone has not chosen by this time, they should not have the right to vote.
A lot of people HAVE already made up their minds - and thousands of them have already voted. It is expected that around 1 out of 4 Americans will cast their ballots before election day on November 4, so any strategy premised on waiting for the final few days is as last-millennium as buggy whips.
Helloooooo, John! Is anybody still awake in your campaign bus?
I must have missed that part of it.
Of recent candidates, only Michael Dukakis in 1988 has had a larger percentage of voters tell pollsters they believe he lacks the necessary qualifications to be president.
From none other than Karl Rove.
I cannot figure out how people can be so dense that they don’t know at this point who they want to be president. A war hero who has spent most of his life serving and suffering for this country and who has consistently stuck to his principles even if it may have gone against the wishes of his own party. Or an inexperienced product of corrupt Chicago politics who has spent his lifetime forming close relationships with terrorists, race baiters, and slumlords and whose political ideology is similar to that of Karl Marx (not to mention his intimidation tactics).
Are there really that many people in this country who are so stupid that they still, after nearly two years of campaigning, can’t choose between these two very different people? It’s just mind boggling to me....and very frightening.
I do think McCain has a big hole to dig out from under though, and there is not much time left. If I were McCain I would go completely negative over the next month and hit Barack with everything we have on him.
I'd bring up the Odinga connection and even let the "t" word slip out (treason). I'd run enough Rev. Wright ads to make sure he appears nightly in every household in every swing state in America. I'd show the Ayers / flag photo at every campaign stop.
The mushy middle would say it turns them off and the MSM would shout their false charges of racism, but it would shake up the race. It may be McCain's only hope at this late stage.
Only Karl Rove would find a presidential debate like that one "good entertainment"
I thought McCain did terrible in the debate. He let Hussein get away with saying just about anything without any real challenge.
I have given up on McCain’s capacity to get through this. I’m going to enthusiastically show up and vote against Hussein, and I hope to bring a few friends with me.
If Hussein loses the election, then we will be up against McCain as president. With a liberal democrat congress it won’t be easy, but it will be better than Hussein being in the Oval Office.
Well said article. I agree with the assessment of the debate.
Rove is no fan of McCain.
Pray for W, McCuda and Our Troops
