How will history see this election ?
me

Posted on 10/30/2008 12:31:04 PM PDT by se_ohio_young_conservative

I can not predict the outcome 3 days out.

But I do have some predictions. The two names most remembered will be Palin and Obama. I believe it is likely that atleast 1 of them will go onto to be President.

Even if McCain loses, Palin has done something remarkable. She worked her way into the very core of Americas fabric. Once you are there, you are there. She is right there with baseball, hot dogs and apple pie. People will look at her favorably.

Even if Obama loses. People will look back at how historic his campaign was. I could make the case that he has a lot more to prove about himself than Palin ever will.

I was thinking the past couple of days.....if McCain wins, we SHOULD NEVER FORGET how we got to THIS point in America and what we have to lose. We need to ALWAYS remain vigilant and never become complaisant by what we believe in and who we vote for. Discernment is paramount.

We need to do more than that.

After Zero is beaten, we need to initiate a national discussion and start to undo the things that the left has been baby-stepping towards for 40 years. If we do not, eventually we will end up getting to where Zero wants to take us right away. We must stop that trend if we are to survive as a country.

depends on who wins the election.
If Obama wins(shuddering) then history will show a great groundswell of a lemmings falling over the cliff to oblivion.

If McCain Palin win will be written by libtards as greatest theft in all history.

History by conservatives should be written as closest we have come to losing republic.
Should also be a lesson and a reminder that freedom is fragile.

I am quietly optomistic that freedom will win

The same way it sees the October, 1917 Revolution.

But I doubt the American people will sit still for a Lenin or Stalin very long.

Even if McCain loses,

If McCain loses we many **never** again have a Republican president.

There will be massive DemonRat voter fraud. Judges and prosecutors will ignore it. There will never again be a fair election.

The DemonRats will impose the Fairness Doctrine and kill the conservative media.

The DemonRats will enact hate speech laws. Hate speech will be anything that criticizes the DemonRats.

The DemonRats will outlaw homeschooling and private schooling. This will guarantee that the next generation of voters will be thoroughly indoctrinated in Marxism.

This election, if won by McCain, will be looked at as being won only because the woman VP candidate dragged the Pres. candidate across the finish line whether he wanted it or not.

It will be the year that prayer kept the U.S. from being taken over by a Socialist, the year Christians made promises to God that they fully intend to keep because they dread what Obama would bring to the country.

If Obama wins, it will be remembered only that the Obamessiah is our Master and he is to be honored forever. There may not be memories and truths we will be allowed to keep in our hearts and minds.

Rush has been speaking this recently and agree. IT will be the true end of a Republican. Boorz even said the other day...Can you imagine the next election when the Dems advertise don’t vote Republican...they will MAKE you pay taxes!!! WE HAVE got to win this election....or it will be scary. Obama and Liberal Congress and Senate will make a generation of government relying on tax money living....and not the work ethics of working and growing...JUST to get votes. This is scary. Maybe more voters are waking up to this reality. Hope so.

if McCain loses she’s just as liable to slip back into obscurity, four years is a long time in politics. Think about who was predicted to be the next big thing in ‘04, from what I recall most people thought it would be George Allen vs. Hillary or Kerry.

Regardless of who wins, race relations have lost.

If the One wins, and he kills the golden goose in order to redistribute wealth, he’ll legitimize “reverse-black rage” at all the entitlement recipients.

If McCain wins, the prospect of having an election stolen by a Marxist, ACORN and entitlement recipients will hopefully ignite the heretofore complacent taxpayers.

Either way, race relations are in the crapper.

I hate to say it.. but I totally agree with you. I believe every one of your bullet points will be enacted by year 3 of an Obama term.

It will show just how lazy & stupid the conservatives are. It has been known about the fraud in many past elections & nothing/NADA have the pubbies done to prevent it - only react after the fact.

That's what they said about the 2000 debacle between Gore and Bush...but, looking back it was just another bunch of liberals trying to steal the election.

I'm thinking now - knowing what we do about ACORN, that the race would not even been close if there hadn't been an awful lot of chads hanging around.
