I have been a registered Democrat since 1980. "Rush, I've been a Republican all my life, but...."

**More generally, McCain seems to have controlled the issue dynamic issue coming out of the last debate. The polls are all showing Joe the Plumber and his question has penetrated voters consciousness. And McCain and Palin and the RNC have actually been using the word liberal. (One amazing thing about both Bush campaigns is that they never really used the worst brand in politics against the Democrats. They steered away from the l word.) And this isnt like 1992 or 1996 when the Republican message never broke through.**

We really don’t see too many people on this forum with a recent background like yours. I was a registered voter in the city of Chicago until I was 42 years old and I have plenty of understanding of the political climate Obama is coming out of. I realize that not all Democrats are like Illinois (particularly Chicago) Democrats. In all those years registered to vote in Chicago I never once voted for a Democrat, and I think you can see why. Thirty years ago I might have been comfortable voting for some Democrats in other parts of the country, but now Chicago politics is coming to the national scene.
In the best sense of the expression, I say, welcome to FR. I hope that you will stick around and look at things from a different perspective. I’m certainly happy to see that you see through the Obama deceit.

**One final point to keep in mind about McCains campaign.
The public measures a candidate on personal qualities and his stands on the issues. But they also want to see how he runs a campaign for them its a sign of whether he can handle a presidency. McCain was able to recover from losing his lead when the economic crisis hit and come back from a lackluster second debate and then developed a good message for the last debate and rest of the campaign. And his campaign has made smart strategic decisions about spending their money.
McCain is finishing strong; hes showing will. At a subliminal level, voters pick that up.**
In other words, voters aren't dumb -- they see that McCain is the better candidate.

The poster pointed out the Democrats answer is the thugs in ACORN.Why is it that every Obama canvasser I see looks like either Clay Aiken, Aileen Wuornos, Ben and Jerry, or Medea Benjamin?

Well,that would be as bad as saying Obama will win, his point seems to be there are so many new variables that nobody knows!

My husband and I are going to Valley Forge tomorrow to pray, just as George Washington did so many years ago when the outlook was so bleak.
