For those who missed Rush on Friday...his gut started speaking:

RUSH:...I'm telling you, things are tightening up out there. My gut tells me this can be won. This is about turnout. This is about voting. This is about everybody showing up to vote. I am getting e-mails from people who are literally scared of what an Obama presidency will mean to this country. I have never seen this kind of fear among people. I mean what I got in reaction to President Clinton's candidacy in 1992 was nothing compared to the overall fear that I am seeing from people in the e-mail and when I talk to them personally about the election of Barack Obama. (cont.)

El Rushbo's Gut Starts to Speak!



It's Doable: Just Turn Out and Vote
This will be a turnout election. So turn out and vote!

[Laverne]

Thanks as always for this favorite thread of mine. I’ll post if/as I can but it has been overloading for me to watch any news lately. The bias and Obama love-ins are so over the top I have had a hard time watching. I think in the last few weeks I have watched every rerun of CSI, Law and Order, and some pretty stupid movies....but I feel a lot better.

On a side note, if you haven’t seen the clip of Olbermann from SNL last night, it garners a good laugh.

[Morgan in Denver]

So true! Republicans better get used to being in campaign mode 24/7/365. November 4th is NOT the end but beginning of the next phase.

[shadeaud]

MTP began with showing polls that had McCain ahead in only one state.
Fred Thompson is defending Sarah Palin and how she's come to fruition. How she's qualified to be VP vs. Biden who has made so many errors and gotten so many facts wrong.
He's telling the American people how obammma hasn't doesn't done anything in his lifetime to show he's got leadership ability or has faced any challenge.
John the ketchup queen's life is up next( he was in Viet Nam ya know)

Davis was fine on FNS but talked only of process - not once did he say BO will raise your taxes, McCain will not.

That said, Plouffe is nervous. First real nervousness that I’ve seen demonstrated by any BO operative.

Encouraging.

[csmusaret]

The “Winking Wonder Woman of Wasilla” according to Kathleen Parker’s latest.

[rodguy911]

Absolutely!

Important post here! Obama's entire campaign has been built on lie after lie!

That's why it's so important that the DBM reiterate his lies time and again because without constant reinforcement they don't stand the test of time.

[AmericaUnited]

That said, Plouffe is nervous. First real nervousness that I’ve seen demonstrated by any BO operative.

I AGREE! When asked, he seemed like he was hedging when asked about the specifics of the "new voters".

[Fishtalk]

Morning AB, ALL....

...you may call me Nurse Pat and now I can account, write and....nurse?

Husband has, I’m not making this up, a brain infection! He needs IV’s adminstered six times a day and with some fine teaching by the visiting nurses, I now hook up IV’s, insert the saline into his veins, clean his PICC port, an IV that can remain in one’s arm for up to a year. Husband has lost use of his right arm because of the infection but yesterday for the first time in a month he could tie his shoe!

Anyway, we will both be going out to the polls to vote this coming Tuesday.

I’m greatly dismayed, hey let me say it cause somebody has to, but on the Chris Wallace Fox News Sunday show no less than Karl Rove is calling this race for Obama with over 300 electoral votes.

Karl Rove is on our side!

Of course we all should vote and not let the news influence us. But Karl Rove...again, he’s supposed to be on our side.

[rodguy911]

Yeah I was amazed at Eagleburger, usually he's a Milquetoast kinda guy.

[Morgan in Denver]

Well deserved nervousness, IMHO.

We are fighting Obama and the Democrats but the media and press is fighting for their life. People don’t believe polls, media stories and press reports because they have been so biased to help Obama. If Obama wins, they think that will save them from talk radio and helps them regain past influence. It won’t, but think it will.

[ThreePuttinDude]

The Fox News Channel has Virginia gov on now...mute has been activated.

[estrogen]

John Kerry is making the dumbest remarks, all the Dems talking points, and Brokaw is not challenging him in any way. What a putz

[mwl8787]

Eagelburger has been great. Hope this taxes are in order - his kids and relatives too.

[rodguy911]

Great post!
What is even scarier is what they will now be able to accomplish at the stroke of midnight in Congress when few are watching.
Always watch your back with this gang in office. I am referring to congress,not potus which we will win.

Feast of All Souls

Heh. Yesterday our choir sang at the 10 am mass for All Saints Day. Besides the choir there were probably twenty other people in the church.

Well hey, people are simply NOT going to go to church twice in one day, not even the choir.

I've missed the last two choir practices because of husbands and hospitals but I was so happy to go back as I desperately need my faith and the fellowship of the choir. About half the choir works in the hospital where my husband (AND ME....recall in May I had quadruple bypass surgery) was a patient.

Do not cry for us Argentina. We have both been recipients of the BEST America has to offer in terms of health care. Husband is expected to make full recovery. His last day of treatment is, get this, December 25, 2008.

[Bahbah]

Kerry says the dems led the effort to balance the budget in the 90s.

There is no lie this man will not tell.

[Cedric]

Rove has properly concluded that the more of the “it's over” talk that bandied about, the angrier and more committed the anti-Obama forces become AND THE MORE COMPLACENT AND LIKELY TO STAY HOME the Obamabots become.

It's all good!

[rodguy911]

Sarah was awesome last night in Raleigh! I watched the entire rally, she had 30,000 fans there and they went wild!!! Every time she invoked the name of RR I cheered so loud the entire neighborhood could hear.

[mwl8787]

Chris Wallace sucking up to Plouffe in nauseating fashion - and giving him a lot more time than Rick Davis.
