WAUKESHA, Wis. - John McCain told audiences in two different Wisconsin communities Thursday that he must carry the state in November and he will.

Down in the polls, both nationally and in Wisconsin, McCain is running out of time to convince voters to chose him over Democrat Barack Obama. McCain promised to go after Obama in their final debate next week.

She will have been Vice President for 4 years by then. Sorry, she will have more executive experience.

She could have 10 more years as governor, 2 terms as VP, and be head of the US chamber of commerce, and still be lacking in comparison. Hunter knows more about military strategy, weapons systems, National Security, geopolitics, the constitution, conservative philosophy, hard ball politics, the importance of our sovereignty, how to deal with illegal immigration, taxation, and sticking to principle than the rest of the GOP combined.

She has one thing Hunter doesn’t

Votes. I don’t see her taking the #2 spot again after she gets experience where she is at.

That is a possibility. Hunter has to do several things to put himself in a good position to win in 2012.

But this much I guarantee, if McCain/Palin loses, her stock will go down. If they win, and she supports McCain’s socialism and global warming bullcrap and the closing of Guantanamo and the ending of waterboarding and the LOST treaty and his gun show loophole nonsense and his “reaching across the aisle for the sake of liberalism” and his policy on China than she ain’t gonna have a chance.

Her only hope is to somehow steer McCain to somplace he rarely goes - to conservatism.

We can agree on all of the above.

If McCain/Palin loses, however, I’m afraid that we may not have a free election in 2012.

If Obama wins, the price of lead will skyrocket due to demand.

If he loses it may as well. I foresee ugly times for our nation ahead because of the racial tensions that are deliberately being stirred up by the treasonous rats.

Every election is the same. Dem polls explained by Dem reporters that their candidate is winning. Final week the polls magically change.

Here’s the secret. Pollsters have to guess what the turnout is and they are assuming 10% more Dems. Guess what that does to the results?

Pray for W, Palin/McCain and OUr Troops

"If McCain/Palin loses, however, I’m afraid that we may not have a free election in 2012."

George Soros and ACORN will bend every effort to make sure of that. You see things clearly. Scarey, isn't it.

You are so right. It is terrifying. Obama is nothing more than a third world dictator in the making. My God how far we have fallen.

I can't believe you folks are blaming McCain for not attacking bambi. Obviously, ya'll watched a different debate than I did. It was that old man Brokaw and the other radical left other moderators at these debates. They are soft peddling questions that actually keep McCain from letting loose. They are protecting their man, bambi.

Why do you think McCain left so fast? He has to control that quick, fiery temper of his. He probably wanted to deck a few people there, IMO.

Like it or hate it, Sarah Palin does have the charisma and the organization that was lacking in Duncan Hunter’s total run for the ‘08 Presidency, and her life story is way too interesting to ignore. John McCain could never have gotten as much interest and as much attention by the general public, by the “New Media”, and by the MSM for the Republican VP position, if McCain had picked anybody else other than Sarah Palin for the VP slot. Still to this day, the Democrats really don’t know what hit them after McCain picked Palin for VP! Like it or hate it, Hunter kept coming across as way too boring to too many of the general public, meaning those who were really paying attention to Duncan Hunter’s entire Presidential run, and Duncan Hunter was also my first choice for POTUS in ‘08. If John McCain is the next POTUS, and McCain doesn’t have Duncan Hunter working somewhere in a McCain administration, then it really will be McCain’s loss. I honestly doubt that McCain will ever put Duncan Hunter anywhere in a McCain administration, as both McCain and Hunter still don’t care that much for each other. It would be nice to see Hunter run again for POTUS, but Hunter kept continuously hitting bottom in all of the polls taken, with Hunter continuously getting just 1%-2% of support in most polls. I believe that Hunter is probably done running for POTUS. Sorry, Pissant.

Don’t have to apologize. Everyone has an opinion. Hunter is a rock ribbed Reaganite, and the most qualified man in the country to be CIC.

Sarah is a fledgling. And listening to her rambling answers compared to Hunters direct, brutally frank punch you between the eyes conservatism is not my cup of tea.

It is the difference between a John Bolton and a Condi Rice in that regard.
