Well I don’t know. NOW is not a huge deal but I think a lot of people and especially women are sick of the MSM beating up on Sarah like they did to Hillary. This may be the significant issue. Women think Sarah is getting beaten up unfairly and ANY women would have to admire her strength and courage. I am a man and I greatly admire her. She also totally negates almost any man saying “I am not voting for a woman” which is incredible. She has won men and women over because we like her and her family.
Sarah is Obama-Biden’s biggest nightmare.
I read a book by well known psychologist. I still have the book. He proved over decades things about children and turning negatives thoughts to positive to help people. Very good academic stuff that blew away a lot of Freud-Jung ideas.
He did a research project and followed sports teams news and newspaper comments and positive teams ended up winning based on comments. He tested it on past elections then did it real time on Bush-Dukakis. Dukakis was slightly ahead at the start because his acceptance speech was more positive than Bush 1’s. He and his researchers followed the election and Dukakis was staying positive in speeches then he started going negative and the doctor said Bush would win - long before the polls turned for Bush. Dukakis was a grating and negative man. He is a pretty dark personality and not very likeable.
Sarah is the positive one in this campaign. Obama talks airy BS but it is not that positive. McCain needs work. Joe is ignored but Sarah really INSPIRES people. She talks to people (warm and very likeable) and Obama talks at or down to people (cool and aloof). Big difference.
Obama has robots but I think it is waning. I think Sarah will start outdrawing Obama. Obama needs rock concerts before his rallies to get people there.
Very interesting post.
Ever heard of the Ash experiment?
If so, that’s my hypothesis of why so many people are following Obama and why once they learn the truth, so many have turned away.
