Ray Malone, who used to post here as "Common Tater", also thinks Obama will lose big: Assuming the Position

I agree with him and Kyle-Anne Shriver.

Obama’s actual weakness is the reason I think we can find someone to replace McCain.

Maybe a governor?

Maybe even a woman?

Maybe someone with a genuine interest an knowledge of some energy issues?

If Obama alienates the far left the new voters won’t show up.

“Could 2008 Be a McCain Landslide?”

There is one way. Obama could really, really screw up. Like live boy/dead girl screw up. As it stands, with the drilling issue first and foremost, McCain should pull out a squeaker by 1 or 2 points....of course if he didn’t kick the base in the collective crotch every other day, it might be by 5 or 6 points.

My concern is Obama is still polling pretty well for a socialist. Yeah, I know, so was Dukakis at this time.

Actually Obama is polling quite badly for a Democrat at this point in time. Most democrats presidential nominees at this point are ahead by at least six points, maybe more. Obama is barely keeping it at a dead heat, and that is with the polls weighted towards democrats. This is one of the surest signs Obama is not doing nearly as good as the obamalovers would have you believe. He will lose, and lose big.

Not addressing this subject, but I do want to say the American "Thinker" is the worst conservative website I have ever had the displeasure of reading.

American Thinker has published some articles that are quite worthwhile,IMHO.

Obama is sanctimonious and he lectures people about what he thinks is wrong with them. This is an expression of his nanny-state socialism. He talks vaguely about “change” and “hope,” but when you listen closely all you can hear is negativism. If Obama is elected, he will be a one-term president. He will be like Jimmy Carter, mismanaging things while preaching to the American people that they are the problem. Most people got tired of that. We are still living with the consequences of some of Carter’s mistakes and the same would be true of Obama.

More happy talk similar to some of the prognostications that were being made before the 2006 mid-terms. Obama is still the prohibitive favorite to win. He has all of the factors that favor his winning: an unpopular Rep president with historically low favorability ratings; an unpopular war ;, a country heading into a recession; an energized Dem base that turned out in record numbers with the Dems getting three to four times the Rep turnout; a fundraising machine that will dwarf McCain's public financing; a flawed Rep candidate [McCain] who is the party's maverick and will depress the GOP base; and the spectacle of the oldest man ever to run the first time for President against the first African-American to run for the office. The status quo [Washington establlishment] versus change.

Add to that the rapidly changing demgraphics of this country coupled with a fawning MSM for Obama and you have all the makings of a landslide--for Obama.

...and it’s not just advice giving, IMO, it’s his arrogant delivery of such advice by telling us we’re EMBARASSING, or NUTS (clinging to guns and bible), etc

He makes me sick and each and every one of us need to PRAY for God to have mercy on us by not letting him into the White House.

It isn't going to happen. You've got to start thinking with your own brain and stop listening to the pied piper media.
