Rove is on FNC saying that it would be a HUGE mistake to abandon the social issues.

Pointed out obama is winning FL by the skin of his chinny chin chin and the Amendment 2 marriage amendment is passing by 62%. (and in Calif, and Ariz)

Republicans can win by going into healthcare. Cross state lines insurance. Insurance portability. Republicans do not articulate their principles.

it is an EXCELLENT observation.

I was finally starting to get ahead after 25 years, and now, it’s all gone.

You and your husband will be in my prayers. May His strength, His wisdom and His guidance blanket you and protect you, in Jesus' Name.

Yes, but that will only work for so long. When the taxes are sky high and businesses are closing down or moving abroad, when gas prices are $5-6 a gallon, and a gallon of milk justifies using a credit card, and no special checks are coming to pay their mortgages, the sheeple will start to recognize and resent that the media didn’t do their job. They will be pissed.

(Unless That One is the Antichrist, then all bets are off—just kiddin’. Sorta.)

When their employers all start getting tax increases and they get laid off... what then??? shocksville, is what. A doctor told Mark Levin tonight he will lay off his entire billing staff of ten and go with outsourcing if McCain loses.

There is only one person who has the charisma and ability to attract people who can get a message together and sell it and I think that is Sarah Palin... if we have a country in four years.

Who’s celebrating? No matter how bad it feels the people have spoken and he will be President for 4 years. We can act like DUmmies or we can begin to reshape the Conservative movement.

Being slaves to hate and rage will not solve anything when we need to explain Freedom and capitalism. We will likely see an opportunity in 4 years. In the meantime we are required by Jesus to pray for our leaders. He will need God’s wisdom.

That certainly doesn’t stop us from criticizing and fighting our enemies. God requires us to love our enemies and is the only way to free ourselves of this anger and hatred. We need to start from the very bottom, which is where we are.

Pray for W, Obama and Our Troops

Hope the words haunt her.

At the very least, I hope Hillary is finished now, whether she realizes it or not.

I wouldn’t bet my life on some of these people being truly Christian, the church is just the latest institution that the left has infiltrated, when they saw what a power it has been for the Right. They never see an institution they can make use of for power, without doing so. They finally found a way to use the church, with social programs and a message of “tolerance” (ie, homosexual clergy).

Blame will not fall on them but on the past of Bush II, MSM will not allowed any blame to stick to the “O”.....

They’ll try but that will have a very short shelf life. I know that our ecomony is rough, but double digit inflation, interest rates, and unemployment will have unsympathic ears. Terrorist attacks that are not answered will enrage the public.

I’m not scared by the rhetoric anymore, the words “racist” and “hater”, and the like, no longer have meaning. They’re just weapons the left uses to shut up the dialogue. I know what and who I am, and they don’t define me.
