Why McCain Will Win
For several months now, before the polls were in a dead heat, before Joe the Plumber, before Obama let it slip hes a socialist with Marxist tendencies, even before he revealed his plan to make the bitter and clingy unemployed by bankrupting the coal industry, I have been predicting a McCain win on November 4th. Now, as the campaigning comes to a close, I am more confident than ever.
In the simplest of terms McCain will win because he is the better, more decent man. Obama, not having those virtues, relied on hype and hoped celebrity would give people the impression of greatness. Obamas celebrity strategy did make an impressionone of arrogance and elitism, exactly the things in Washington with which were disgusted and rejecting. McCains victory will rely on a number of reasons but ultimately its because he is a vote for our future, while Obama is a vote for wallowing in victimhood.
Bottom line: John McCain will prevail because we have grown tired of men who think more of themselves than they do of us.
Despite his efforts to remain as blank a slate as possible, in the last few months weve actually learned quite a few things about Barack Obama, and Americans we dont like what we see. His arrogance and presumption reeks of elitist snobbery. Weve endured an Obama presidential seal,O-Force One, a Styrofoam-pillared Greek temple, and an infomercial replete with pseudo-Oval Office replica and Really Presidential Looking desk. In other words, Obama insists he looks the part so he insists we give it to him. On November 4th Obama will find we are not quite as shallow as he thinks we are.

“I hope she’s right!”
Me too, but two things in my life make me very pessimistic today.
My son was at a party talking politics with friends. My son is voting McCain and is a minority in the 20 something crowd. One of the kids at the party said: “Your wrong, and you don’t even know why you’re wrong”. So, my son said, ok, I’m wrong, explain? The kid replied: “I don’t want to talk to you.” Typical lib, and typical of kids.
Today when I voted, there were a LOT of kids in the polling place. More than I’ve ever seen.
I would bet money Obama will win today, and I’m quite depressed.
I feel really badly for the military. If Hussein wins and succeeds in destroying our country, I couldn't possibly imagine anyone wishing to serve the country in any capacity. We will enter an era of sheer cynicism; who in their right mind would do anything other than game the system in the hopes of getting out?
Mac need to win 107 out of these 137 Electoral votes.
Mac should win Indiana, Missouri, North Carolina, & Florida Easily. Ohio, Nevada, Virginia, New Mexico, Colorado & Pennsylvania will be a challenge.
If Mac loses any 2 of the following its OVER. North Carolina, Florida, Ohio, Virginia, Pennsylvania. He cannot overcome.
Perhaps you were behind the Obama’s in line this morning. (Oh, wait, you’re in Northern Virginia).
I’m just trying to take a cheap shot at how long they took to vote, soaking up some more media attention.
(Maybe they were undecided...?) /sarcasm
When have we embraced them in recent history?
Dukakis
Gore
Kerry
Clinton won because he conned enough people (though never a majority) that he "felt" people's pain.
Thanks!
You're forgetting NObama's proposal to create a People's Revolutionary Citizen National Security Service. Plenty of Marxists and second-handers willing to live off the government trough by informing on their neighbors.
Welcome to FR Sunshine. You’re in for a big letdown.
Pennsylvania will be close, but with Philly being be so obviously corrupt . . . 'Nuff said here on FR.
City people vote liberal. They're all on the dole, one way or another.

Come on guys, keep your heads up! Let’s not forget the PUMAS who could easily outweigh any gains with young voters (BTW, I SAW mostly older voters where I was!).
GO PUMAS!!!
Great Americans!
“I dont hold much hope that McCain can overcome the extensive cheating thats going on. Thats why the Rats are so confident. They know they stole it.”
That was the impression I got in 2004 when CNN wouldn’t call Ohio for Bush, even though he was leading Kerry by over 100,000 votes.
Democrats are just believing their own propaganda.
McCain is going to win big.
Tammy Bruce has McCain winning PA, OH, FL, NC and NV
She has Obama winning VA (but thinks McCain still has a chance), CO, IA and NM.
Her totals:
McCain 273
Obama 265
Thanks!
So what are the chances that the guy standing next to me on line voting this morning is also voting McCain. And he tells me that he knows a lot like us. I just got done telling this story to my McCain-supporting neighbors to cheer them. And we’re in Manhattan—imagine the red states! ;)
I'll take that bet.
The youth vote hasn't turned out and just seeing some kids voting doesn't change the fact that Obama is going to need millions of new voters to make up for the ones that he is losing to the Hillary voters and Reagan Democrats.
Actually, I can see why you are depressed-you are a Browns fan!
