Thanks to all of you for strengthening and renewing my hope that Obama might still be defeated. And thanks to McCain & Palin & the RNC for finally taking some swings. I think they are going to connect.

Although it would be nice to stem the flow of illegal money and to put people in jail, I don’t think it ultimately matters. What ultimately matters is whether Obama can be stopped. This is going to help stop him by forcing the public to find out who he really is and what he stands for,

2 tiny bits of info:
1. I think even some in the MSM may be having second thoughts. I watched the SNL skits about the 2 debates. Of course they mocked McCain & Palin. But IMO Obama & Biden came off much worse. It’s hard for me to be totally objective because my biases are for McCain/Palin, against Obama/Biden and against the MSM in the sense that I don’t believe they are fair. But I have to say I thought they were at the least even-handed with these skits. They brought up graft and corruption with Obama, which, if I were in the tank for him I would not have touched.

I think that in order to do good satire, you have to really understand your subject. A newswriter or editorial writer can make up whatever they want, but the comedy writers need to hit close to home. In order to do that, they’ve been forced to take a closer look at Obama. I’m thinking they might not really like what they see when they look too close.

2. Just anecdotal evidence, but there is a huge McCain/Palin banner on a corner I drive past a couple of times a week. It’s been defaced since the first time I saw it. This is much like the keying of cars with McCain/Palin bumper stickers. At some point, people have to ask themselves, do you want to align yourselves with thugs? They are thugs on so many levels! The banner vandalism is just one tiny low level example. It starts at the top and goes all the way to the bottom. (Yet the lefties don’t believe in “trickle down” effects. ;-) ) At first I hoped they would replace the banner, but now I think of it as carrying an additional message.
