We need to donate, volunteer and work until election day like we are behind in the race.

Fight on. We have fighter bomber pilot Johnny Mac, Sarah the bear hunter and Joe the Plumber on our side. ;-)

Woo Hoo!

It would be good to hear from Nancy the nurse and Bill the doctor and Mike the sub shop owner. Open this thing up to other professions.

This poll was taken before the debate! The negative ads are starting to work although the talking Democratic heads were saying they were not working. We Know better!

I hate Bill Kristol and Fred Barnes. They need to be fired.

Yes. There were a couple of places where McCain could have done even better, but it was obvious to me last night that McCain won the debate.

A couple of time Obama’s lies seemed to be getting some traction, but McCain shot him down almost every time.

And you’d have to be a lunatic (which maybe a third of the electorate unfortunately are) to like Obama’s smarmy, self-satisfied, narcissistic smile.

TRUE STORY:

My 7-year-old has come home from school every day for the past month talking about Obama and how “he rules” and “is the greatest” and “the best guy ever” and - gasp! - that Obama is like “daddy” (my husband looks nothing like Obama, but I think that my son would like to replace his father with Barack.) He says he hears things about Obama from the kids in the playground.

The indoctrination has commenced. I’m going to die now. Sigh.

BUT, this new Gallup poll keeps my HOPES HIGH!

ABC news is dumpster diving on Joe the Plumber; they headlined his back taxes on the air and headlined it on their web site. I sent them a scathing note.

I know he will be on my sh*t list for quite a long while (along with the rest of the FOX panel).

Rush really took it to them today! Wonder if Rush would send THIS message out?

DANCE WITH THE ONE WHO BRUNG YOU.....Watch someone besides FNC on election night!
Put their ratings in the tank.
 
I'm wondering about posting a vanity with this heading. Maybe JR would do it?

I stay away from radio and TV. But, today I listened for just a bit. The amount of Obama ads are nauseating. I realized that is exactly why he’ll lose and lose hard.

This celebrity is overplayed.

And, this foreign spirit has overstayed its welcome.

Wait a minute I just saw on fox...two guys say it was over.

HERE IS MY LOWDOWN ON FOX.....they are either baiting catching then playing the switch or they are afraid of losing there job....it is very strange all of a sudden I feel like I am watching CNN......

What I notice is they will have Pro Obama for a while then....right after when everyone is watching some dweeb tear down McCain...they put some one on with a big update on Obama lies....what do you think?

McCain said last night that he’s proud of the people who come to his rallies and support him...I’m proud of them too! With that said I plan to work my butt of to get this ticket elected. I hope every FReeper does.

I'm sure McCain and the GOP will find some way to blow it.
They always do. Nobody ever went broke betting a GOP sure thing.

As soon as Obama reads this, its certain that the first thing he does is pick up the phone and dials the HQ for ACORN.

His Royal Huseinness: “Hey guys - need another few hundred thousand fraudulent votes, just to make sure we're OK!”

ACORN HQ: “No worries sir, the fix is IN!

Future President John McCain will be able to flip it to +20%
in the next two weeks as he breaks the REAL NEWS on Obama Hussein! Remember, John is a Fighter Pilot and Obama is Target Rich, a true piece of festering garbage who isnt a Natural Born U.S. Citizen and is a Prpoven Associate Terrorist Associate of KENYA’s Prime Minister Odinga!
Burning 50 Christians ALIVE in their own Church is the Worst kind of Terrorism in my book!
