If there is racism alive and well in this country it is in the black community....no doubt.
If there is racism among whites then it is more in Appalachia among white Democrats...if those Democrats pull the lever for Obama...in WV etc...then the race won’t be close.
It’s time to realize the scenario McCain is against...
1. MSM not telling the truth and refusing to do a negative story on Obama...the uninformed voter sees him as refreshing and inspirational
2. The economy is terrible and the MSM is making certain the Republicans are blamed for it.
3. The war in Iraq sank Bush’s approval ratings and McCain has been painted by the MSM as just another George Bush
4. The MSM (with the help of McCain himself) has painted McCain as inconsistent and unstable..
So how do you win this thing? You make Obama a HUGE threat and scare. You equate CHANGE with SOCIALISM...that allows you to attack him without the fear of “racism” charges..(I’m so sick of that one too...who the hell cares if they call you a racist...stick to the issues and that charge is void)... it allows you to tie him to his socialist radical friends Ayers, Davis, Wright...etc..
You build a ton of doubt in the voters minds....that is how you win this.
I’m just not certain McCain has the balls to do what he has to to win.
The Glen Beck show said a recent poll in WV said Hussein was up by 7. No, I don’t know which poll or any details. I just know they said one existed.
Bad news.
Sorry to hear of the illness in your family. Prayers up. RD
Hillary also romped in SE OH in the primary. Obama generally got in the 20s or even the teens in many of those counties.
Thank-you for your prayers. {{{}}} We’ve made our peace and try to focus on “the great reward” awaiting our loved one. Loving father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. WWII vet and staunch conservative.
I agree with you 100 percent which is why we are seeing RINOs and dems becoming majority. Good conservatives would be crazy to get into something that destroys your reputation even if you are crystal clean. It is insane. Anymore I even think local politics are getting this way. Sarah will triumph over this but it is a shame that she has to go through any of it.
Huntington, while not being N.Y. is the media center for the South of Ohio as well as eastern Kentucky and much of W.Va.
Any media coverage she gets in Huntington will reverberate through the area.
to add to your excellent post, I think McCain and Palin WANT the popular vote as well and not just to nickel and dime it but to actually OWN it fair and square....
SHE IS GOING TO BE OUR NEW VICE PRESIDENT FOR CRYING OUT LOUD YOU BABIES!
God bless her little heart......
WV is Communist ?
1.) By accepting the fact is she did subject herself and her family to this.
2.) As for 2012... provided “Bob Dole in a mask” wins.
My M-I-L got to meet Sarah in the Gallipolis Walmart today. She just happened to be there when Sarah came in to buy diapers, with Trig on her shoulder and her S.S. entourage in tow. The M-I-L was thrilled to meet her, and I’m jealous.
That is great !
I am jealous as well. It would be great to meet Sarah. I would probably get tongue tied and not know what to say. LOL.
Hopefully the corrupt establishment in Washington D.C. will be meeting her soon. like in January !
