Copy the following link (http://www.forbes.com/asap/2000/0529/053_print.html) and quote from Forbes.com.
Note its original date: May 29, 2000
Paste it all over the Internet.
Mrs. Obama came to Fishers, Hamilton County. She spoke to maybe 150 people at a local conference center. Hamilton County is one of the most Republican counties in the United States. It was a waste of time. Indiana is still solidly red.
We all need to get out and vote!
Some credit to Rendell .. he was the only Dem politician to note that PA was not gonna go for Obama. He was talking about the primary but he knew if Obama got the nomination, he likely would not carry the Commonwealth in November. Rendell knows his gun-God clingers.
It was 39 to 40 Obama in Indiana. Too close for comfort. I hope we get some new numbers soon.
What time will the polls close in PA?
See post #125
They are EST. 8:00?
NC is a red state. Thats just wrong.
Yeah, relying on a base of 14% of the population is not a great model for victory. But I do think that is what they imagine. They imagine that there are millions and millions of black folks who have not registered. They are going to register them and elevate themselves to victory.
Here’s another thought about demographics, btw. The presumed Hillary vs Sarah contest in 2012 and how formidable Hillary is. Well, two things . . . 1) Who says McCain won’t run as an incumbent in 2012 (assuming he wins this year)? Given the finest medical care in the world, who says he dies? And if he thought he might, hell, he’d resign and make Sarah an incumbent. 2) This is BIG. There is reapportionment in 2010. More EVs will move south. Hillary’s hill gets steeper.
Obama's going to campaign in PA hard to get this one back.
I think you're on to something. There's a great big chink in the Democrat party and this is it. Buy them a few beers and they'll tell you why - they don't want a black guy for president.
However, keep in mind that Rendell is a Hillary guy. He can doom Obama by just dialing down the fraud machine. The question is does Rendell control PA machine politics?
FYI. I live in an Albuquerque area where in 2006 there were a bunch of Madrid for Congress (running against Heather Wilson) lawn-signs, and I have to say that I’ve seen few 0bama signs.
In fact, near the University of New Mexico campus, there’s a house with a bunch of McCain/Palin, Pearce and White lawn-signs. Given the area, this is extremely odd.
I’ve also seen a bunch of McCain/Palin signs all over. And very few 0bama.
How could they not know? That is the question about Obama I have. How could they not know about John Kerry? The left is in denial. They roll out these liberal candidates that not only are not in the mainstream but openly resent the mainstream of America. They confuse the urban areas where they dominate as the mainstream even as they are forced to run hiding their plans and views hoping they make it through till election day with just generalities and speeches.
Medical reason. Opens up an MSM frontal assault on the age factor visa vie McCain. And of course the inexperiences of that other member on the ticket.
Last time that happened in St.Louis the feds were there for the next election and the state went republican.
“Is Zogby at all credible?”
Hit and miss. It’s hard to tell.

Series?
