Sadly, a lot of Americans do not know what they are getting when the vote for Obama. Here is a small list. FEW Americans appreicate these issues. They simply don't care. I am hearing more and more and more people say they are tired of politics, tired of the elections, want it over, NO MATTER WHO WINS, to just get it over and MOVE ON. They simply do not get it when they say they want to vote for this socialist scum. This issues above show you just how very far left we will turn when Obama gets into office. Sadly, polls show that Americans give Congress very, very poor numbers. YET, they stand to REELECT a lot of the same idiots back to Congress and elect even more criminal and socialist Dimocrats. It is enough to make a sane person puke.

Thankfully, the history of the U.S. is that when we make a mistake, we usually fix it pretty quickly. And I always hear, "it will be different this time." I heard Clinton would never leave office, or that he would pass last minute legislation that would give him emergency powers.

But the fact is, Clinton as DEMOCRAT was finished after Hillarycare. Clinton as "triangulator" was born, and had to toe the line pretty carefully on any permanent damage to the country.

I'm not saying an Obama presidency wouldn't be a disaster, or that he won't try to do all this and more. I'm saying people are fundamentally center-right, and as soon as they really push for this, you get "Dubai ports" kind of response.

Once the Fairness Doctrine is re-enacted, there will be no opposition media.

Once Amnesty is enacted, tens of millions of new Democrats will be voting.

Once Hate Laws are enacted, there will be no preaching from Church pulpits.

“The coming rout of Republicans will have major consequences.”

Suck eggs jackass. NRO is in the toilet.

The polls are all over the place. Zogby is trying to seel the idea of a Reagan-like blowout...while there are indications McCain just might pull this out.

There’s polls showing McCain pulling ahead in Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania, Nevada a toss up, etc. He might steal Michigan. Even with polls showing Obama ahead, history has shown such polls to be wrong, and in Reagans case, grossly wrong.

NRO = neocon shills...I’m done with them...

Can someone tell me the purpose of this article?

He’s saying the world is coming to an end -— but we can’t do anything about it.

Mr. Freddoso, go huddle in the corner in the fetal position. There’s work for the rest of us to do.

Correction- David Axelrod, UNCHECKED, will tell his Number One squirrel what to say and do.

You're right!

Many Americans will have some heavy lifting to do.

Instead of tossing bales of tea into Boston Harbor, we'll have to toss most of the 535 socialist pansies who rule our lives into the Potomac.

I wonder if it will even matter ... all they'll need to do is silence right and center-right voices, and the socialism will be shoved down our throats with nothing to stand in its way. That why the Fairness Doctrine will be one of the first things on the 'Rats' agenda.

I'm really afraid that it will take an armed insurrection to remove these bastards from power if Obama wins and the 'Rats have supermajorities in congress. In a word, we're f***ed.

That’s why the Founding Fathers put the 2nd Amendment in the Constitution.

Clinton didn't have a filibuster proof senate.

The Democrats have stated that they ARE going to implement the Fairness Doctrine.

The new Supremes will take care of that.

Thank you for ‘there’s work for the rest of us’ just when I was really getting depressed.

A large segment of the American population being taken in by a snake-oil saleman, who insults and demeans the hard-working among us, at every turn - whose running mate TELLS THEM that O is not the one, every time he is let lose to speak uncontrolled -

Watching so many people being manipulated so easily by a person who doesn’t even pretend to care about anything except money and power, is the real shocker for me.

Anyway, thanks for the sanity.

While France, Germany and Canada and even Sweden have elected conservative governments, it appears that the sheeple of this country are going the opposite route. Abortion on demand, the “Fairness” Doctrine, sky-high taxes, redistribution of wealth, reparations for slavery, and capitulation to our foreign enemies is only the beginning of the nightmare that is to come.

It seems that we will need to have “Jimmy Carter II” to really wreck this country before the sheeple wake up and put in another Reagan, assuming another Reagan is out there.

You will be surprised at the resilience and outrage of the American people, supermajority or not.

Klinton wasn't able to fully pursue his dimocratic agenda, because the GOP had enough seats and some leadership to keep him in check. Now, the GOP has lacked leadership for sometime, and the number of seats will shrink to the point that even filibuster may not be an option. Add to that the fact that in the Klinton years, the dims did have a few members, notably the Blue Dogs, who put the Country first. Pelosi & Reid have effectively stamped out that group and now were left with a bunch of automatons that follow in lock step. There will be no check on what 0bama will be able to do.
