LATE EDITION (CNN) :
We had an interesting homily at sunrise service this morning - the three groups of soldiers who "witnessed" Jesus as the Son of God: the temple guards who heard him identified, the place guards who took him before Herod, and the Roman legionnaires who crucified him. Unusual, but very interesting. Our sunrise service is small and intimate (usually too cold for most people), and I find very moving.
Yum!
One of my favorite Bible stories.
ABC radio news announces where “the candidates were today” and did not mention McCain. So much for an open mind. /s
Hillary in NY with family
Obama is “believed to be” in St Thomas with family.
That is funny maica but also expected. The media are all democrats anyway, so they view their listeners through their own liberal lense anyway.
As we all know, McCain is at home in AZ with his family, after just returning from his overseas trip. You know the one where he had that “severe gaff” about AQ versus “islamist extremists”.
The media has become laughable, honest reporting is not in the blood; ethics is out the window; investigative journalism to them is reading the front page of the NYSlimes and reporting it verbatim; propagandists — one and all.
They have become a modern day joke.
I think your scenario has about a ten percent chance of being correct.
But it’s not beyond the pale.
Here’s the story.....first, establish the premise that Obama yo mama is unelectable. Establish that the Dems cannot afford to appear to be throwing Obama under the bus in favor of Hillary as they will lose a very, very important base vote with the black vote.
I say they offer Obama the moon and the 2012 presidency, (btw, Obama would have do what you said, renounce Jeremiah because he will never be accepted until he throws the guy over), he accepts, and OBAMA calms down the African American base. Something good might even come of it with the exposure and denouncement of those nut revrunds....Revrund Wright it just a bad thing and us folks with common sense will accept no spin on it.
But suppose Obama says NO, no way I walk away and give it to HILLARY....I beat her fair and square. Or maybe polls and focus groups show that the African American base will not be appeased even with Barack’s help. So the Dems throw Hillary under the bus too and maybe research shows this will work. And it might.
At any rate, it’s so damn cool how these TV pundits sit and talk about stuff they know nothing about cause Revrun Wright is all about common sense.
I’m telling you, they’re so full of themselves it’s palpable.
I think both parties will have some serious thinking to do about the primary process after this election.
I don’t know what happened to the Republicans... I just don’t know. We had a couple of good candidates who gave up way too early.
We need to figure out a way to stop the crossover voting in those early states, and the dems are probably working on sumpin like that too, thanks to the Rushthevote.
I am already thinking about 2012 and the chances of getting a true conservative elected.
He(McCain) can help if we get conservative choice for VP, but with McCain our chances are no better than 50/50 if that.
Of course there is yet another caveat that he better consider before anointing a brokeback Lindsay or even worse.
McCain is scoring very little dough right now, if he wants it to get any better he better think Conservative VP or prepare to run a beggars campaign.
McCain’s verbal abilities will make us long for the loathed and despised George W. Bush, whom the libs always made fun of as an orator (although I thought he was fine)
Bush is especially good at unscripted, off-the-cuff remarks. McCain is not. But he’s all we got.
It’s one of the Lord’s blessings that He not only rescued the Jews through Esther and Mordecai, He gave them a feast one month before Passover, which celebrates another rescue. And both holidays are marked by full moons.
Although, as a good Baptist girl, it took me a while to get my head around Jesus celebrating Purim.
Excellent rant being a liberal has really changed.
Exactly. I just posted elsewhere that 90% of the country didn't even have a say as to who the republican nominee is.
Ridiculous!
Yes, a lot of people will not diss Obama publically, but will not vote for him.
Which may be a plus in Romney’s column, no? Along with his own funds, he showed he has the confidence of the financial community. And with the Obama/Clinton alternatives, his opportunism and Mormonism might not be great negatives in the veep slot.
The question is whether the financial guys can get themselves together to make the case for McCain to pick their kind of guy in exchange for the funds.
