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 he’s 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. Obama’s celebrity strategy did make an impression–one of arrogance and elitism, exactly the things in Washington with which we’re disgusted and rejecting. McCain’s victory will rely on a number of reasons but ultimately it’s 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 we’ve actually learned quite a few things about Barack Obama, and Americans we don’t like what we see. His arrogance and presumption reeks of elitist snobbery. We’ve 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.

At my polling place there were easily 5 times more voters than I have seen before (same place for about 17 years.) There were more Blacks than before, but they were hugely outnumbered by the professionals, the older voters, people that appear to be in groups that break for McCain.
I do not believe the Elections office foresaw the huge increase in the largely Republican districts such as mine. They seem to have expected it only in the seemingly more sparsely populated minority areas here in Memphis.
Obama's road to the WH is much tougher, he has to actually take some Red States-which he won't!
Pa is going Red.
Even Philly won't be able to keep it Blue, nor is Randal that eager to help Obama do so.
My coworker voted for “change” people most of them watch tv and are steadily brainwashed. I am not optomistic today.
Well, it worked for President Martin Sheen, didn't it or did it?
I know several people, ages 18-26 who are voting for McCain! Two of them (three counting me) are Jewish and one of them is a black. I guess I know a lot of rebels:)
Also, yesterday I overheard a guy at work (who I think is in his 20’s) and I believe he is a moderate. He was talking to a woman and said that he thinks that Nancy Pelosi getting even more powerful scares the crap out of them. He said the far left is much more dangerous than “the religious right” which the woman seem concerned about.
Will the American people usher in a president to partner with the already overwhelmingly democrat congress whose approval rating is in single digits? I don’t think so.
I would not serve this country under any Democrat and probably would not if they controlled Congress. The Democrat Party is an abomination to every man or women that has fought for America.
You signed up today to tell us it’s over.
Mm hmm.
OBamination will only will with massive voter fraud, which is why he and his ACORN have been very busy with that.
I like your attitude. :-) It isn’t easy to be optimistic when you realize that this is the culmination of the Left’s thirty year long march through the institutions.
Think Soviet Union!
Whatever happened to those guys who claimed they would bury us?
