Dick Morris' "Lunch" video this morning involves a claim that a realistic reading of today's polls indicate that Romney (or anybody else other than Rick Santorum more or less) will beat Obama very badly. The basic gist is that Obama needs to be over 50% among likely voters at this point to break even and the fact of his being no better than around 45 spells wipeout in November since the undecideds almost never break for an incumbent under such circumstances.
Morris notes that it's as if marriages were five year contracts with options to renew and somebody were to ask your husband or wife at year four if they were planning on renewing, and they said they'd have to think about it...
Just look at the hyper inflation that is beginning to surface, and the Fed cannot sweep the dirt under the rug any longer. Printing worthless paper and calling it legal tender, is no longer able to happen.
I don't think we can survive another 4 years of Obama.
I’ve talked to people who are a lot more experienced than I am with regard to election watching, and almost to a man, they de-nuance the whole stupid thing and refer to $4+ gas as the deciding item. I whine about what about this, what about that, they say none of that matters, what matters is the price of gas and whether they are at that moment of pulling the proverbial lever employed or see their prospects of same getting better a LOT better. I’m just reporting this, I’m a little more convinced that this is about all it will get down to, but not a full buyer as yet. I DO believe there is a more and more significant “anyone but 0bama” movement being nurtured.
Whatever is going to happen is going to happen. I’ll deal with the outcome when it’s time to deal with it. I’m not going to fret, I am not going to worry. I will try to educate and enlighten people to the danger we face, though and give them the truth as an alternative What they do with it or how they react is their issue, not mine. All I can do is pray for them at that point.
It’s sorta like having faith and evangelizing in the Lord’s name. That’ll probably raise some hackles :-)
Morris’ logic strikes me as perfectly sound, you might want to watch the video. You can be certain that no nation on Earth including ours would survive eight years of BO in the whitehouse, and we better be damned certain that doesn’t happen.

Yesterday, on the “O’Reilly Factor”. He said that McCain’s move to “suspend his campaign” and back out of the Friday debate was the best move he has made since picking Sarah Palin for his running mate. He said that the bailout legislation will pass, and succeed, and that McCain would be seen as a big hero. He also says the same thing on his website dickmorris.com
Morris obviously want’s McCain to win. That is not disputable, but he is also a very good predictor of political horseraces. This claim about McCain making a good move in backing out of the debate is a bold prediction and maybe a little hard for me to believe (though I am voting for McCain), but his predictions in the past have been pretty accurate...
...any thoughts on whether this prediction is accurate?
Sounds great to me!
Oh crap. We’re doomed.
