11 Points in a Week. How’s that for an convention bounce?!

I can live with McCain and Palin. I cannot live with Obama/Biden. For me it’s Country first — where have I heard that before?!

Better another lousy Republican than a crooked Democrat.

Listening to Axelrod on MSNBC now- he sounds nasty and afraid. He’s not being treated with the same deference as he was during the primary season. They used to hang on his every word…this morning they asked him relatively tough questions- he changed the subject.

Interesting. Their internals must look bad.

Hmmm….more than HALF of Clinton backers still not sold on Obama….guess we decided not to JUST GET OVER IT Obama. And oh Brazile, we aren’t staying home either. We’re voting for the real deal in McCain and Palin.

See we don’t agree with them on everything but we do agree on what is more important than anything else and that is what is right and good for this country. It isn’t Rev. Wright, Louis Farrakhan, Father Phleger, Rezko, William Ayers, Black Panthers, Black Libertarian Theology, Ludacrious and all of Obama’s other shady, scummy cohorts, friends and business partners.

You and the DNC all made a major mistake when you thought all Democrats would get behind whoever you selected. We are a diverse group but have a few things in common. We want what is best for this country and we don’t stick our noses up at others because we think we’re better than they are.

Stick that in your pipe and smoke it…or did you do that already??

Thanks Deb…

I was listening too, and he is in a rage now…

I think the internals look very bad…this is it ladies and gents…

me think the bed is going to start moving around the room soon, and there will be some real puking anytime.

The exorcism of BO will be painful for the pundits.

There’s a good story in the WSJ about how the McCain is “running against the Meda”

The most noteworthy thing is the comments.

More and more people are catching onto the Ayers connection.

If anyone is inclined, please contrinute to the call for the media to do its job:

http://blogs.wsj.com/politicalperceptions/2008/09/07/why-mccain-is-running-against-the-news-media/#comment-15571

This is my comment:

Where is the media to report on Obama being the ideological brother of William Ayers. William Ayers is the Timothy McVeigh of the 70s. and to this day is devoted to revolutionary change in America to bring in a “humane” system. Ayers is dediectated to that cause still. Thats why Obama is suppressing the record, Obama sat on two of Marxist Ayers boards. And the Obamas run a boot camp for radicals called Public Allies, look at IBD website for details. Obama is a Trojan Horse Marxist. The media is hiding this. I dont care about Sarah’s amnioc fluids or she’s swapping fetuses with her daughter. and the American People can tell something nasty is going on.
Comment by Vince P – September 8, 2008 at 7:59 am

Sarah Palin relates to the ordinary every-day American while Barack Obama relates to the elite academic. John McCain is a hero and a maverick politician while Joe Biden is just a politician. The McCain/Palin team is exciting while the Obama/Biden team is just so so. Is it any wonder then that the polls are showing a swing to the McCain/Palin team. The more that is known about Obama the more likely it is that McCain and Palin will move into the White House. I hope so, anyway.

The movement of the polls over the past month or so led me to believe that voters were just waiting for Obama to give them a reason to vote for him – and he never delivered.

Axelrod on MSNBO was pathetic! He was whining that McCain did not have the guts to pick the guy he wanted – Lieberman. Instead McCain picked Palin. Newsflash Axelrod: It was your effete, whiny, narcissitic Obama who didn’t have the guts to pick Hillary. John “War Hero” McCain had the guts to pick a strong woman, one that knows how to dress a moose, a caribou and a wide variety of other game. I’m sure that offends Obama’s effete sensibilities. Go ahead Axelrod, that’s all you and your Chicago thugs know for strategy – pick on the girl. Next up, the race card gets played again! PS – We don’t care if Sarah had an affair! Remember John Edwards the world famous bathroom hider! Stinky, cowardly men all stick together.

The MSM is not one to back a loser.

They will push their agenda as long as they think they have it in the bag.

The moment it looks like things might not work in their favor they jump ship.

Case and point, remember how they sold us on The Iraq war. Then when it got mired in the trenches they turned on Bush.

Now for the past 20 months they have been pushing Barfbag Obullshit down our throats. Now that things are looking down its goign to be a turn around.

THey don’t want to be on the losing side because it shows just how out of touch they really are.

When you cant make your agenda THE agenda, change your agenda.

If the polls dont flatten back out in 1 – 2 weeks for Obummer, expect the MSM bloodbath of Obama and the vetting of the One to begin in earnest.

They may have been the ones to bring him to the thrown, but now that they find he is having trouble actually getting into the seat even with all their help they will cannibolize him for their own self interest.

The Left wing thinks the media is on their side but its not. Its an opportunistic pack of attention whores and 15 second sound bite heroin addicts who will spin on a dime for the next big story.

Now that they are thinking, Oh Shit It might be McCain no matter what we do, they are going to fall all over themselves trying to ingratiate to the current story.

Main Stream Media – grotesque beyond belief.

The trouble is, right-wingers ALWAYS say any Democrat running for President is a commie, a Marxist, etc. They have done this with every Democrat running for President since FDR. They called FDR a commie; they called JFK a commie, before he was killed; they called Clinton a commie; they called Kerry a commie, etc., etc.

Anyone see a pattern here? The right wing exhibit a repetitiveness of behavior bordering on insanity.

the difference is that this time they are actually right.

If this lead holds- though I don’t expect it will stay 10 points up- I’m looking for absolute rage from the far-left. And dirtier politics than we’ve seen for generations.

Meanwhile- here’s a short behind-the-scenes piece on McCain-Palin :
http://www.latimes.com/news/la-na-mccainpalin8-2008sep08,0,6106281.story

Do you think they’ll decide to go negative now? /s

I was just channel surfing..and i have not had any cables on since the RBC vote May 31st…but no mention of anything bounce..so i shut it back down..although i did hear on Scarboro show..Cramer blamed the failure of Freddie Mac and Fanny Mae on the dem party exclusively!!

And i have to say/..yesterday i walked into a local Pharmacy..and the US rag mag..was turned upside down out of the rack..and the whole pile was on the floor upside down!!..Seems someone wasn’t too happy with looking at it.. near the door and took action..not a bad idea,..turn them upside down wherever you see them!!

The more i see of this woman the more i like her..and Hillary is not making me all that happy stumping for Obama..she doesn’t need to do that..and if anyone thinks that will change my mind after stealing my vote and then stealing all dem votes on the floor of the convemntion..they have another thing coming!!..call it a tsunami…

Nothing anyone can say ,can give me back my vote..once stolen..you don’t get it back..

No way, no how will the dems who stole my vote ever get it again this year..won’t happen.

And honestly it has freeed me to look at Palin and McCain in a new way..that otherwise I never would have even looked..

omg…lol, good analogy and fitting….it’s not going to be pretty, that’s for sure!

new talking point…scared?? You should be.

The reason is that until the conventions only a small slice of voters even pays attention. During the conventions and after, the masses begin tuning in and it is THEY who want to know who this Obama guy really is. Whether they get answers that trouble them, or no answers at all, the tend to move the other way. This has just begun. Wait till the shots that have been held back begin to be fired.

HAHAHA. It’s never a question of when…

Hello? They’ve been going negative all along.

The NEW YORK POST just endorsed John McCain for president!!!! Yes that is right they were Nobambi fans during the primary!!!!!!

http://m.nypost.com/ms/p/nyp/nyp/sF95BA0CBBD5BEAD5FD0AEB82BA4C8282/view.m?id=23090

The tide is changing! Obambi you better get yuour life jacket ready!!!!! THis is going to be a fun election

Sarah Palin DID NOT HAVE AN AFFAIR. It’s another trashy, tabloid story. The man in question wanted his divorce papers sealed for privacy, the Palin’s were only mentioned as business partners-THAT’S ALL.

This woman DJ on one of our local radio stations was saying Palin needs to come clean and the guy got pissed and said, there is nothing to come clean about, it’s all made up TRASH.

some real puking?

Baaarrraaaaccckkkkk!

I’m stunned that anyone would be stupid enough to make this argument. The fact is McCain didn’t pick who THEY the bots wanted him to pick. McCain “considered” a wide range as he should have. But he picked who he wanted.

by seriously “considerng” Lieberman for vp, McCain used this to send a signal to Israel and the all the Jewish people that he was going to continue to support and defend the State of Israel. I am sure Joe Lieberman is very happy about that….I heard Joe did not want to run again. Axelrod is trying to be rovian…taking the best part of McCain…courage to make a unique vp choice and trying to turn it around…but he is no Karl Rove…and his skills as a smasher of women are wearing out.

I agree but the way I see it the media is a big whore and all they really care about is the story. The story was the rise of Obama. Now the store is going to be the fall of Obama. Once the republican 527s start pouring it on (3rd week in Sept) about the muslim connection, and citizenships, Wright and Ayers, the media will be frenzy feeding on Obama’s carcass.

good idea about the mags!

I was listening too, and he is in a rage now…

I think the internals look very bad…this is it ladies and gents…

He could be a little miffed about being served with the Berg lawsuit papers also. That may be contributing to his angst and sense of general malaise.

The affair is the “new” pick on the girl talking point. Does anyone think a woman with 5 children and working as a Governor really have time for another man in her life? It seems she and Todd are the real deal. I was pointing out the pathetic MSM, in cahoots with Axelrod’s talking points, that they don’t know what to do with this woman.

To celebrate the “bounce” you might want to listen to some music with a good beat and sound this morning. Go to http://cdbaby.com/cd/maryline2 and hear a few samples from Maryline Blackburn, who was Miss Alaska 1984, and is now a professional singer.

We Republicans are always concerned with more government and less freedom. There have been reactions to that over the years- but I don’t remember the “socialism” cry being really and deeply believed by us before- it’s a rallying cry as I’m sure you Democrats have your own.

In this instance- it’s instructive to take a look at the people who have influenced Obama’s thinking, values and beliefs since the first days with Frank Marshall Davis, up to the Rev Wright, Ayers et al.

These are NOT mainstream liberals.

I cast my first vote for George McGovern- so I’ve been around a few years. This is the first election cycle where I’m AFRAID of our opponent. Before- I disagreed, sometimes vehemently- but I’ve never experienced FEAR as a reaction to a Democrat presidential candidate.

But- as you point out, I may just be bordering on insanity.

The Axelrod gambit fails because – who is really going to believe that Lieberman would have been the “bold” choice but Palin wasn’t?

I was waiting for McCain to give me a reason to vote for him, and he delivered.

McCain the Y canidate of 2008

taking the best part of McCain…courage to make a unique vp choice and trying to turn it around

Selecting Palin for V.P. was as courageous – if not more – as a Lieberman pick. It certainly was more of a gamble.

I’m sure the McCain camp anticipated that she would be trashed, but I have to believe they were stunned by the deluge of absolute filth that was rained on her.

Just the honesty alone brings me to McCain and Palin. It is so good to see courage, integrity, heart, humor, and excitement. I am psyched for this election. When Hillary wasn’t nominated, I thought I would never vote again. I can’t wait to vote for McCain/Palin.

One shudders to think what kind of “humane” system Obama and Ayers have in mind. I keep going back to the BAIPA issue, because I just can’t wrap my head around it. I keep thinking there must be some excuse… but no. I read Hot Air, and there was a very lively thread on it.

http://hotair.com/archives/2008/08/21/obama-baipa-unnecessarily-burdens-doctors-with-babies/

This guy is poison for the Dems. The only thing I can think of is that the idea was to expand the party, energize more leftist members and help downticket Dems keep control of Congress. No one in their right minds would imagine an Obama / Biden ticket winning.

Yes, I haven’t seen this take this line on Obama. But, in Obama’s case, they really wouldn’t be wrong. His earliest days are using Saul Alinksy’s tactics and his cadre in Public Allies that Obama helped form, and Michelle’s Chicago Public Allies, the local chapter; then later, ACORN. His 20-year friendship and work with terrorists William Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn, and Mike Klonksy help substantiate the picture. Add, through all his association with black liberation theology with Farrakhan, Wright, Pfleger, and Meeks, as well. Plus, don’t forget Khalidi from the PLO. Finally, Obama has one of the most liberal stands and records (for what there is in his very short career). Yep, very easy to–whether in detail or not–to paint Obama as a closet communist or socialist.

Bill Clinton’s analysis was spot-on. This election will boil down to who the voters believe can deliver.

Why would John McCain pick a Democrat to run on his ticket? They wish.

I hope the 527s go after that comment yesterday about his muslim religion………Nobomba

I agree Perry. Obama is Bush#3 not McCain.

If Democrats want to act like the worse of the Republicans they prove they’re not worth supporting so until Dems go back to behaving above the board I’ll vote for my COUNTRY first.

McCain/Palin

Ayers = Timothy McVeigh of the 70s…. THAT is a powerful analogy.

People can relate to THAT, and if a 527 can make the connection in a well placed ad (flash Timothy McVeigh and say the same thing you just did), people will wake up.

Next up: Endorsement of Cousin Odinga, whose followers burnt people alive in churches, and Rezko letting people freeze in SOuthside Chicago tenements.

The ad can be called “Judgment Day”

Willie Brown was Speaker of the House in California for 15 years and San Francisco mayor for eight. Here’s what he has to say about Palin:

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/09/07/BALU12OCMV.DTL

The Democrats are in trouble. Sarah Palin has totally changed the dynamics of this campaign.

Period.

Palin’s speech to the GOP National Convention on Wednesday has set it up so that the Republicans are now on offense and Democrats are on defense. And we don’t do well on defense.

Suddenly, Palin and John McCain are the mavericks and Barack Obama and Joe Biden are the status quo, in a year when you don’t want to be seen as defending the status quo.

From taxes to oil drilling, Democrats are now going to have to start explaining their positions.

Whenever you start having to explain things, you’re on defense.

I actually went back and watched Palin’s speech a second time. I didn’t go to sleep until 1:30 a.m. I had to make sure I got the lines right.

Her timing was exquisite. She didn’t linger with applause, but instead launched into line after line of attack, slipping the knives in with every smile and joke.

And she delivered it like she was just BS-ing on the street with the meter maid.

She didn’t have to prove she was “of the people.” She really is the people.
[cut]

As for Palin herself, she is going to be very, very effective on the campaign trail, especially if McCain’s people can figure out how to gently keep her from getting into confrontations with the press.

If she can answer questions like she handled herself at the convention, Palin will turn out to be the most interesting person in all of politics, and the press will treat her like they treated Obama when he was first discovered.

And remember, the Palin bandwagon needs to roll for only two months.

Yup. Used and abused voters will not go back to the ABUSER- The Obamacrats. NEVER!

Reason #4537 why extremists of any stripe do this country a disservice.

For example, the race card is the one pulled when an extremist is out of valid reasons for supporting Oblahblah and is a variation of the liberal card, the communist/marxist card, the Nazi card, the feminazi card, the redneck card, the bitter white person card, etc. This changes the debate into a high stakes game of which card beats the other and the debate becomes nothing more than gainsay and name calling.

I will cast stones at myself and admit my culpability since I use a card myself, with neocon being my choice because I think Oblahblah is a closet neocon and an AA Bush. After reflection, I will not use that card any longer. The reason that I do not support Oblahblah is because he is unfit and unqualified to be POTUS. I don’t need to pull any card to make the case demonstrably true. My argument always causes the obamabots to pull the race card. (that always goes over well here and makes the obamatrons look silly).

This is not to say that a card can’t be used as a means of humor or derision, though.

They won’t jump on it right away but you cen bet it will come back when the timing is right. I can see an ad tying that to his “lack of American roots.”

LOL! “Nattering nabobs. . .” leaps to mind with respect to Axelrod. Where is Spiro Agnew when we need him?

But Oblahblah is not fit for office, whatever category one would be tempted to put him in.

I’m looking at the local politicians that have given their support to Obama’s campaign and have every intention of voting against them. I my case that means Kerry, Delahunt and a few others and yes Senator Kerry, I donated the maximum to Mr Reilly, your opponent.

BARRACK AMERICA’S CHICKENS

TO ROOST!

I am Jeremiah God Damn Amerikkka Wright, and i approve this messsage.

A thing to remember to is that a LOT of non-politician Republicans are primarily concerned with the fiscal disaster of the government.

this was the primary failure of GOP Congress.

However, standard Democratic outlook on spending leads me to say that if Congress was Dem for the past decade… there would have been no difference..

i blame ALL Washington parties for this situation.

so getting back to the non-politician republican.. i think what they want is for the fiscal situation to be focused on..

There is no way McCain can do it without support of the majority of Democrats.

So Democrats and Republicans are going to have to find a way to work with each other on this.

And i think that involves knocking Nancy Pelosi off the Speaker’s Chair and getting your party off the clutches of the Far Left.

The Republicans will have to temper the social/cultural conservatives who you guys think threaten your values

But i thiknk the main challenge is going to be the Far Left.

how are they going to be dealt with?

I hear a big Nelson (from the Simpson’s) “HA HA!” is in order.

Farleft

Koolaid

Jonestown

Next!

That’s not negative thats the new politics of hopey dopey and change the subject.

Well, I told you so. Senator Clinton from Day One was pointing this out to the SDs and the DNC and in her primary run. The Clintonss knew this phoney was a pack of lies and evil. A empty suit. She has to campaign for the down-ticket candidates because she is a loyal Dem. Plus she needs to start collecting IOUs from the foot soldiers for the coming blood-bath of our party. PURGE, bigtime- Ms. Rules, Brazile, The screamer, Wexler, the hypocrite, who supported the stripping of his own Florida voters, Kerry, Pelosi, the do-nothing speaker. We need to make a clean sweep of our party of all the extreme left-wing nut jobs and thugs who have run amuck.

Fox is reporting that Olbermann and Matthews have been relieved of their election coverage duties, being replaced by David Gregory and Olbermann/Matthews will return as the occasional commentator, lol.

What a great 12 hours!

YES WE CAN
YES WE CAN
YES WE CAN

I just read the article on Palin in the NYT pretending to tell the story of her pregnancy with Trig. The (women) writers state how Palin felt, what she thought at the time–without any stated evidence to back it up. They have one quote from her sister, but you know there is no way in hell Palin talked to NYT writers after what they did to McCain.

So, is it now the accepted journalistic standard to observe some facts (although we never can know all that goes on in another person’s life) and then make what we think are logical assumptions about the thoughts and feelings that would lead to those actions and present them as fact?

Or does that just work if your target is a conservative female that has upset Obambi’s apple cart?

The desperation on the part of Oblahblah and his minions is palpable. There is no depth to which they will not sink in order to “win” the election. I’ve seen this picture before and it was a dog the first time around.

I only hope the Republicans are out in force on election night to ensure there aren’t any voting shenanigans. We don’t need any more FUBAR elections or dicey Supreme Court appeals.

there may be something to this ‘left-wing’ media thing afterall…

This is the time to strike! Makes those phone calls to have those two crazies fired! Keith, oddball, Chris , Mr. Tingles! CNN, is just as bad, Rev Manning calls it the Cable Negro Network. Lokk I’m a Dem but I can’t tolerate the bias, distored coverage of the corporate controlled media. Cnn, did a hachet job on their bio special of John McCain, focused on his messy divorce. It time to boycott the MSm and their slanted coverage. GE, Westinghouse, which I believe is the parent company of CNN. I am tird of their shit. Clinton, 2012!

I doubt it. After the 2000 primaries, I doubt anything would surprise John McCain or his campaign team.

McCain also isn’t a favorite of FReepers and other conservative message boards.

But he picked who he wanted.

It was a wise choice. I’m certainly glad he didn’t listen to the bobble-heads.

Smart man.

Just in case anyone missed it!!!

Local news had a blurb about Obama calling Jerry Mondesire, head of local NAACP, urging him to step up voter registrations.

I don’t know why the Obama camp is worried, Philadelphia has a longstanding tradition of bringing out the dead people vote.

FWIW Mondesire was for Hillary.

being replaced by David Gregory and Olbermann/Matthews will return as the occasional commentator, lol.

USA Today/Gallup TODAY

Obama 44%

McCain 54%

HAHAHA .. when haven’t they been negative..it is just a matter of ..who is negative “FOR THEM”…and how is that negative for them against Palin working out??????

Now the bark is off the tree now..people know exactly what Barky is all about..and how he uses others to do his dirty work for him..i would more call him coward.. than barky..

Soooo who will he send to do his dirty work against ..say..PUTIN?? or N.Korea???? oh yeah..good ole …Brzezinski ..even his daughter Mica could do a better job than Barky..but then again..I don’t want another repeat of Brzezinski ..why do these assholes keep being recycled???????????

and does no one else see the coincidence of Mica Brzezinski going on board at MSNBC when the election cycle began??..with daddy in the wings ready to take over the new world order for Barky??????????

You guy’s seen McCain manager Rick Davis on morning JOE? He was sharp like “Razor Blade” Hope somone will put it on YouTube. If somone find it please post link here.

LMAO! Bye bye KO and Matthews and Kos. Couldn’t happen to better trio- The Three Stooges fucked up Big Time.

Obama gives leftnuts nutroots triple knicker twists…ouch!!

McCain/Palin

Jesus must be surprised that Donna Brazile knows his name isn’t Barack.

Think positive!

By the way, of course she has no shame. It’s her job not to have any shame. That’s how one can sleep at night without concern for guilt. She’s paid to have no shame.

After checking a few pro Obama sites, I find it hilarious that they now want “racist Bill” to campaign for him.

lets all chip in and buy Keith Oberman a Pregnancy Suit.

Lord Knows when he found out about this i bet he had a cow!

I don’t think ACORN existed at the time of the Christ.

Donna Brazile should fact check her story with the Obamas’ spirtual mentor and guy who married them.

I would like to see Obama’s ratings in the polls to at least equal the ratings of GW Bush and the democratic congress. The dems just never learn. They just keep on keeping on trying to push candidates on us with more baggage than the American airlines. I hope this dem congress and the dem party gets it shoved up their butts so far it –oh well.

hmmm…i wonder if her MAMA taught her that or if she picked it up while organizing them thar commieoonuties.

I was watching Morning Joe earlier when I heard Chuck Todd babbling on that the new polls were “outliers” and that the “real poll”–the WSJ/NBC poll–would be coming out this week and that everyone should “settle down”. Apparently the only polls that are statistically correct are those that have Oblockheaad atop them.

Scratch Morning Joe from my list of “news” shows to watch. I like Joe and Pat Buchanan but can’t abide the peanut gallery composed of those obamanuts Todd and Mika.

Thanks Matthew,
Although it has been painful for me, one thing this election cycle has proved beyond a doubt is that WE must put our country first!
I plan to evaluate each candidate from now on without “party” blinders!!!!

Sure thing…as soon as they publicly admit that they played the race card on him and Hillary intentionally with full malice of forethought…

…otherwise…

…NO BUBBAH FOR YOU MIDGET!!!

You get my vote Jeremiah!! LOL!

Please i urge everyone .. associate Ayers with Timothy McVeigh when spreading the message.

I think it’s very hard-hitting.

I never had thought of that comparasion until I watched the hour long doumentary called “Weather Underground” about the WU… it wasn’t until i watched it and listened to all the people invovled explain what they were trying to do that I realized how evil he is.

This is the video:

Obama can’t have any more kids- per Michelle-
Guess Keith will have to fake it another ‘way’ LOL!

Jesus only pointed the way and organized nothing. The first part falls, causing the second to fall with it–the argument is a false analogy and irrelevant, to boot. This isn’t about Jesus and Pilate. Donna has had her nasty-ass bacon in the pan too long.

First, Mr. Cosmopolitan does an interview for This Week in a barn and now he’s making “sacrifices” to have Bill campaign for him.

Somewhere between his coronation and his Muslim Faith gaffe, an epic moment happened and Camp Obama realized that Barack can’t be The One and Moses at the same time. Therefore, the Light shined down to Obama and the truth began to sink in: We don’t have Sarah Palin, but we do have Bill Clinton.

Yes, Moses is coming in the form of Bill Clinton. He will part the Republican sea and make things all better for The One.

The End

The Democrats have shielded FannieMae from all Congressional Oversight, and Democrat officials run Fannie

And Fannie pumps millions in charity.. all to Leftist causes.

i can document tonight.

Yeah! Right! There have been more wars and killings in the name of Jesus and God than for any other reason. And Jesus nor God were frigging two-bit south side Chicago slum lord community organizers like the hood from the hood , Barry Soetoro. Jesus and God were Universe creaters who in due time came to save the world–not to shit on it. screw Obama.

But one sign in Albuquerque may have summed it up for Republican stalwarts: “Sarah — you had us at hello.”

WOW! Great Line! Barry is in BIG trouble!!!

excellent point and very true.

The loonies can’t have it both ways:

Doesn’t Donna B. know that one of the slams against Palin is that she’s a fundie who’s going to make us all tattoo a Cross on our foreheads?

But now to make Obama’s case, Brazile pulls out the Jesus card. I wish they would all get on the same page…this is way too confusing for moi.

Deb…you are not alone being afraid of this dem candidate..many of us are.

Don’t blame her Mama. She’s a grown ass woman.

I know if I was on TV saying half the crap Donna says, my Mama would storm the studio and knock me out. It would probably be the highest rated show ever.

In the new survey, more voters call themselves Republicans. Now 48% say they’re Democrats or lean to the Democratic Party; 47% say they’re Republicans or lean to the GOP.

Not since February 2005, right after Bush’s second inauguration, have Republicans been within a single point of Democrats in party identification.

What’s more, voters by 48%-45% support the Democratic candidate in their congressional district, the party’s narrowest advantage this year.

http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/election2008/2008-09-07-Inside-poll-GOP_N.htm

I am totally with you. There are too many people in the shadows. It scares the crap out of me.

Yeah, I suppose I will have to start voting split tickets myself instead of going down the line and checking everything that has a “D”.

By the way Matthew, excellent post. Much better

I just want to know ONE thing.

When Barack is defeated in November and all the OMG AMERIKA IS SO RACIST commentary dies down…

at some point these people have to start thinking about rebuilding their party…

HOW THE HELL ARE THE GOING TO EXPLAIN THEIR BEHAVIOR IN THIS ELECTION SEASON?

How do they ever regain thier respect and dignity as party leaders?

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!

MSNBC Takes Incendiary Hosts From Anchor Seat

MSNBC tried a bold experiment this year by putting two politically incendiary hosts, Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews, in the anchor chair to lead the cable news channel’s coverage of the election.

That experiment appears to be over.

After months of accusations of political bias and simmering animosity between MSNBC and its parent network NBC, the channel decided over the weekend that the NBC News correspondent and MSNBC host David Gregory would anchor news coverage of the coming debates and election night. Mr. Olbermann and Mr. Matthews will remain as analysts during the coverage.

The change — which comes in the home stretch of the long election cycle — is a direct result of tensions associated with the channel’s perceived shift to the political left.

“The most disappointing shift is to see the partisan attitude move from prime time into what’s supposed to be straight news programming,” said Davidson Goldin, formerly the editorial director of MSNBC and a co-founder of the reputation management firm DolceGoldin.

Executives at the channel’s parent company, NBC Universal, had high hopes for MSNBC’s coverage of the political conventions. Instead, the coverage frequently descended into on-air squabbles between the anchors, embarrassing some workers at NBC’s news division, and quite possibly alienating viewers. Although MSNBC nearly doubled its total audience compared with the 2004 conventions, its competitive position did not improve, as it remained in last place among the broadcast and cable news networks. In prime time, the channel averaged 2.2 million viewers during the Democratic convention and 1.7 million viewers during the Republican convention.

The success of the Fox News Channel in the past decade along with the growth of political blogs have convinced many media companies that provocative commentary attracts viewers and lures Web browsers more than straight news delivered dispassionately.

“In a rapidly changing media environment, this is the great philosophical debate,” Phil Griffin, the president of MSNBC, said in a telephone interview Saturday. Fighting the ratings game, he added, “the bottom line is that we’re experiencing incredible success.”

But as the past two weeks have shown, that success has a downside. When the vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin lamented media bias during her speech, attendees of the Republican convention loudly chanted “NBC.”

In interviews, 10 current and former staff members said that long-simmering tensions between MSNBC and NBC reached a boiling point during the conventions. “MSNBC is behaving like a heroin addict,” one senior staff member observed. “They’re living from fix to fix and swearing they’ll go into rehab the next week.”

The employee, like others, spoke on condition of anonymity because the network does not permit it people to speak to the media without authorization. (The New York Times and NBC News have a content-sharing arrangement exclusively for political coverage.)

Mr. Olbermann, a 49-year-old former sportscaster, has become the face of the more aggressive MSNBC, and the lightning rod for much of the criticism. His program “Countdown,” now a liberal institution, was created by Mr. Olbermann in 2003 but it found its voice in his gnawing dissent regarding the Bush administration, often in the form of “special comment” segments.

As Mr. Olbermann raised his voice, his ratings rose as well, and he now reaches more than one million viewers a night, a higher television rating than any other show in the troubled 12-year history of the network. As a result, his identity largely defines MSNBC. “They have banked the entirety of the network on Keith Olbermann,” one employee said.

In January, Mr. Olbermann and Mr. Matthews, the host of “Hardball,” began co-anchoring primary night coverage, drawing an audience that enjoyed the pair’s “SportsCenter”-style show. While some critics argued that the assignment was akin to having the Fox News commentator Bill O’Reilly anchor on election night — something that has never happened — MSNBC insisted that Mr. Olbermann knew the difference between news and commentary.

But in the past two weeks, that line has been blurred. On the final night of the Republican convention, after MSNBC televised the party’s video “tribute to the victims of 9/11,” including graphic footage of the World Trade Center attacks, Mr. Olbermann abruptly took off his journalistic hat.

“I’m sorry, it’s necessary to say this,” he began. After saying that the video had exploited the memories of the dead, he directly apologized to viewers who were offended. Then, sounding like a network executive, he said it was “probably not appropriate to be shown.”

I think Joe will be McCain’s secretary of state. Last night I heard McCain say that America is made up of a lot of really talented, smart people and THEY will be selected to be part of his cabinet. He does not care what party they are in as long as they are the BEST to do the job!

The more I hear, the more I love McCain! He IS the Maverick we’ve all been waiting for to clean house in Washington!!!

Check out the new McCain video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVIaqCjvLpU

I wonder what Obama can make as a response? Uh, I was a community organizer, I, uh, thought about joining the military, and, throughout 20 years with terrorists, felons, and hate-filled racists I kept my eyes shut, ears closed, and mouth sealed.

If anyone with an objective,open mind (as much as possible in this crazy electon cycle can have) watched Gov Palin on wednesday-she is the real deal.

When one reads Obama’s narrative one thinks if there really was a politican that wanted to reform govt, fight some of the “negative impact” lobbyist (because not all lobbyist are bad), not so caught up in all the power, prestige and glitz of washington we would vote for that person in a heartbeat.

Heartbeat meet Sarah Palin!

I guess Obama really knew what we were looking for…but it just “ain’t” him!

PUMA

Thanks!

I think Palin is clueless. But DNC needs to clean house.
A vote for Obama is a vote for dirty politics. It is a vote
for letting a rich moron buy out and control DNC.

Not voting for Obama is a vote for getting the party back
to the democratic voters.

Solong Chris Messiahtingles and Keith Obamamann.

It was nice while it lasted…make sure to take Rancid Maddowg with you.

well that’s interesting news but the NY Post has always been Conservative backers while the NY Times was more of a liberal backer so it’s not surprising

But but but… it was such a good COLB I sent to Kos…

Is this the same Wexler who represents FL but LIVES in Maryland?

Yeah, he’s on top of the credibility list!

I can’t wait to see the landslide!

I bet the Las Vegas bookies will now be taking bets on who will be first to go:

Pelosi
Reid
Kerry
Wexler
Brazile
Obama
Biden
Casey

Geez, the list goes on and on and on…

I’ve already spoken to a few of my fellow Hillary supporters and we are looking into heading to Washington for McCain/Palin inauguration day!

January 20th 2009 .. mark you calendars!

Very nice

Look…let me just say it again…and i have always said this…so let me be Absolutely clear on this.

The Problem with Barack Obama is that he wrote his History before he actually lived it and now he just can’t seem to measure up to his own lofty ideals.

He should have waited till he had actually lived it and learned from it.

Even Mika Brezinsky seems to be offended at the coverage of Sarah Palin. The criticism about Palin not being a good mother because she chose to have a career must be hitting a little too close to home for her, since they’re about the same age and both have young children. I heard her tell a guest one morning that she would get two thousand critical e-mails that day from Obama supporters because the guest criticized Obama. She’s been slammed pretty hard for being so obviously in the tank for Obama, too. Will Keith Olbermann be the only one in the media still singing BO’s praises by election day, or will he opt for saving whats left of his career?

BOYCOTT GENERAL ELECTRIC, MSNBC, OPRAH, CNN, NBC & STARBUCKS!

11 points in 7 days . Now that is what Bill Clinton was referring to. Hell Yeah. Would you rather roll the dice with Obama or roll the dice with a winner, like McCain/Palin. They are on a roll–7s and 11s. Obama is crapping. How ironic and fitting.

I’ve seen that exact same quote over and over as a response by the Obots.

Just shows she is a major koolaid drinker – and desperate.

LOL…omg….

Matt Koooool video!

WOOT!

Please do. These are important issues, even the crucial ones ($$$) and unfortunately tend to quickly get boring and confusing for most readers, so people soon quit and never get the picture. If you can lay it out like a flowchart, so much the better.

JUST POSTED AT RASS: McCain Moves Ahead

McCain attracts 47% of the vote while Obama earns 46%. When “leaners” are included, it’s McCain 48% and Obama 47%.

Last Tuesday, Obama’s bounce peaked with the Democrat enjoying a six-percentage point advantage. Before the two conventions were held, Obama had consistently held a one or two point lead over McCain for most of August.

C’mon, Perry, John McCain doesn’t deserve that insult, no matter on what issues you disagree. No, I am not a troll. I’ve been here for a while and a contributor to this site.

Don’t vote for them and don’t fund them. My down ticket choices will be made primarily on when, if, and under what circumstances the various politicians went in the tank for Precious. I’ll forever respect two of my politicians, whom I was not that supportive of, for hanging with Sen.Clinton when the pressure was really on: Heath Shuler and Mike Easley (rep. NC, gov. NC)

Lets all send emails to Donna saying We are NOT staying home!!!

hehe

On Rasmussen’s recent result page (click here), you will see this is the only date listed McCain has passed Obama.

This could be the turning point, since people are now getting focused on the election.

I was referring to the “without leaners” column.

Perhaps you are right, however, JFK and FDR didn’t hang out in anti american churches and have friends that were unrepentant terrorists. Most of this Obama has brought on himself.

LOL

So, is MSNBC swaying with the wind? What pimps they are. They’re afraid that the public will leave them so far behind in the opinions of the ‘dates. MSNBC just wants to be loved by the majority, and they are now realizing that they’ve been on the wrong team. Pathetic asshole. The lot of them.

I figured all the MSM would jump ship after the conventions. They will get much more interest out of those Obamacazi terrorist stories!

Anyone recorded Rick Davis on morning JOE? Please put it on YouTube and post link here thx.

He’s a terrorist’s friend. Make that two, because Dohrn was too. Now even his campaign admits that.

I don’t want that guy with access to our nuclear arsenal. Period.

Look…let me just say it again…and i have always said this…so let me be Absolutely clear on this.

Jeremiah, that is so effffing funny. Thx!

yes, that will be a classic:

Obama: “And I actually always thought of the military as an ennobling and, you know, honorable option. But keep in mind that I graduated in 1979. The Vietnam War had come to an end. We weren’t engaged in an active military conflict at that point. And so, it’s not an option that I ever decided to pursue.”

HAHAHA! What a loser! Why didn’t he just say the truth? I mean, who says they didn’t join the military because we weren’t “engaged in an active military conflict?” WTF!!?!

So if we were – he would have? RIIIIIIGHT!!!

Two months to go and Obama is turning to the ones he called racists to help.

The Clintons can’t help him now but looks like you folks will get more of the same from the gop.

Country first?

BS. Our country and the American people will continue to lose because the spineless dems ran another loser instead of a sure winner.

If BO pulls out a win, somehow, that somehow will have to be by fraud. He’s been working on it for at least 4 years, and we know he is ethically challenged!

I noticed that too. I think she said some of it was “repugnant” or “vile” or some word like that.

Why won’t anyone answer me? Even the ‘bots won’t chime in.

Is Barky secretly Jonesing for Larry Sinclair and the crack pipe? Just asking.

He was trying to get some of McCain’s Country First Credibility by association.

He is trying to Forest Gump his way into history only without actually having forrest gumps credibility.

I love this shit… I keep going back to the enormous bias I had to watch on CNN during the primaries against Clinton, and Donna Brazille sitting there and saying (regarding old Democrats), “we don’t need them anymore”.

I heard her say it. Every freaking day that I have time to focus on politics, I think of her saying it.

I’m infuriated by the commentary of everyone on CNN and MSNBC I’ve witnessed this last year. every damn one of them.. the cocky son of a bitches (and the bitches) on cnn who are supposed to be unbiased contributors but showed such seething hate for Hillary in their remarks it was a disgrace.

2 months b4 the election after 8 years of a fuck up like Bush, and Obama isn’t running away in the polls (?).. I love it!

Hillary in 2016

Hillary in 2016 2012

And I thought these tidbits were interesting:

McCain leads by four points among men while Obama leads by three among women. On Tuesday, when Obama’s lead peaked, he had a fourteen point advantage among women. [snip]

Forty-one percent (41%) of voters say that they are certain they will cast their ballot for McCain and will not change their mind before November. Thirty-eight percent (38%) say the same about Obama. Overall, McCain is now viewed favorably by 60% of the nation’s voters while Obama earns positive reviews from 55%

I believe Rass uses registered voters, so that accounts for some of the difference with the USA Today/Gallup poll.

The Chicago Tribune has an article stating that due to criticism they received concerning coverage of the Republican Convention and the Primaries, MSNBC is replacing Olbermann and Matthews as coverage anchors, and will use them as commentators only:

http://www.chicagotribune.com/search/sns-ap-tv-nbc-olbermann,0,541685.story

It’s kind of like a 3 yr old writng their memoirs

so you would have us vote for Obama then?

hahaha

cough…

NO!

gotneedalife

I expect that a McCain administration will be conducted in a more bi-partisan fashion. His record in the Senate indicates that he is inclined to govern that way. So I’m not so sure about same old same old GOP.

At the beginning of the campaign the MSM did talk about BO’s being “too exotic” for the American people, but somehow that was lost. I think it is way true!

He should have waited till he had actually lived it and learned from it.

I don’t believe he would have ever done that. The 20 years in the racist church should tell us who this shithead really is and will always be.

McCain is right. No on the job training for diaper boy.

Who do you think the late Frank Rizzo is voting for? Wanna bet he still votes?

Jeremiah, thank you! The MSM are pimps. Olberman, Mathews, Wolfie boy, the disgusting she-should-be-in-prison Soledad, and the adorable Anderson (isn’t he just precious) and that dunce of dunces Cafferty. Yechhhh! Did I miss someone? Sorry.

Look at how foolish our Dem party and Little Boots appeared!. They showed the entire nation, what a pretentious idiot Soetoro and our party have become, wasting 6 million dollars on a Paris Hilton, Roman temple speech! Who can remember what little boots said? But we do remember the waste of 6 million dollars. Money which should hve been donated to the poor folk of South Chicago, who Mr. community orgainzer betrayed when he sold out to slum lord, Tony Rezko. Change you can believe in! Yeah, sure!

Uh, this old English prof would call that fiction. I know the newspapers for years have tried to sell the idea as “imaginative journalism” and other such silliness. But it is what it is. If you don’t have first hand sourcing of a statement, it is fiction. (btw, one of the tip-offs for this sort of “journalism” is use of verbs– watch for “claim” instead of “said” for instance.)

Its more like Kim Kardashian releasing leaking her sex tape to make her an instant internet celebrity to get her a tv show so she can become a celebrity and star in a movie like Disaster Movie which is full of Non Celebrities, and which will relegate her to the no talent celebrity who are famous for being famous crowd….

…Its a vicious circle jerk.

I don’t agree….I believe McCain will do the right thing. As another thread said, just because Bush is a shitty President doesn’t mean all Republicans are shitty.

They’re not. They should be flushed. News outlets should be told by the Party that Donna and the rest do not speak for us. Never have. Never will.

Wouldn’t it be great to see some fair political fights in this country? You know, where ideas competed for votes?

agreed. it was a fraud from the get go.

Its why he had to manufacture his own autobiographies to make his amazingly boring and uneventful story so amazing.

It was all a fix from the beginning. he doesnt have the character to actually do for anyone but himself.

Obamememe.

I predict his fall will be spectacular and his prison term long.

No, they are not.

Barack Obama is a fraud. He wants to coddle everyone into thinking he’s for him. He’s open to them. He will do things they want … provided they give him in return.

Obama isn’t a Marxist because Marxists believe in something. Barack believes in himself and that doesn’t count.

Let me put it this way. Barack is more Stalin than Trotsky (or even Lenin, for that matter). Barack sees an opportunity for himself, not for others which is why he rambles on with inane phrases like “it’s not about me, it’s about you.”

Jeremiah rocks!

BOYCOTT GENERAL ELECTRIC, MSNBC, NBC, CNN, CBS, ABC, AND STARBUCKS!

Olbermann and Matthews deserve to lose their jobs. In fact CNN and MSNBC should call it quits. They enabled Barfbag to steal the nom from Hillary. I will never forgive them for this!

Ms. “Rules” Brazile also excluded, Hispanic Americans and Asian Americans, along with the blue collar working class. The Party of AAs and the lattle guilty drinking elite, the so called educated class. Fuck the MSM, CNN, MSNBC< NBC and Newsweek.

Starbucks? oh hell no!

Periodically when i am feeling constipated, i head to my local starbucks and grab a frozen mocha frappucino…

…20 minutes later all is right with the world.

…AND NEWSWEEK!

Courtesy of the Wall Street Journal …. money money money makes the world go around and a campaign dry up for want of it …

Up until June, Sen. Obama had raised $100 million from individual executives at the top 25 industries, nearly double Sen. McCain’s $52.3 million, according to a separate analysis by the Center for Responsive Politics.

In August, Sen. McCain had his best fund-raising month of the campaign, bringing in $40 million overall. Sen. Obama hasn’t said how much he raised that month.

Once they got the opponent they wanted, they pulled their support and started to fund the guy they want to WIN …. big surprise to no one here. Only the narcissists in Camp Zerobama couldn’t figure out what the hell was happening.

The Obamacratic Party will go the way of the Whig Party straight down the crapper.

Yes, I told my wife about Obama’s ‘I thought about joining the military but there was no war’ She choked, then was outraged. She, like me, spent time in the military and found his statement patently offensive, unpatriotic, and a self-serving lie.

Obama doesnt have to worry about his fundraising.

As long as there is a DOODAD there is a way.

I hope Palin asks Joe Biden Senior during the debate. Why did his son have Larry Sinclair arrested? Than old Joe gets selected as VP??? Ummmm, keeping them honest!

Alright then, Starbucks is OK, but only as an alternative to ExLax.

Promise?

Maybe Obama is a Grouchomarxist?

me thinks maybe barky is regretting that ‘matching funds’ thing…

I think you’re Harping in the right pew.

Yeah but at least McVeigh held on to the power of his convictions and died for them. Ayers, the little cowardly weasel ran back to Daddy (the very Daddy he railed against) when he got busted. Even as a terrorist revolutionary, Ayers is a loser.

I predict his fall will be spectacular and his prison term long.

I was hoping the same for Bush but these assholes are escape artist snakes. I think the best we can hope for is Obama losing the election. I can live with that.

Have you met my Pet Canary? His name is Rezko and boy can he sing…

Mika knows what the inside numbers are..and what they mean…to Team Obaam..she is just trying to stop the bad numbers going lower!Thats her job and purpose.

check out this article i saw on againstobama.com

http://www.againstobama.com/2008/09/baracks-mortgage-problem-fanny-freddie-and-obama/

one more reason it will be dangerous to elect Obama.

Thanks for the link. A lot of info there.

I’m w you on that…big business does not support Democrats, they support Republicans.

COME ON ALREADY CNN CBS NEWS AND HOTLINE/FD

I CANT STAY AWAKE MUCH LONGER!!!

@wodie

i think we needn’t worry about macdaddy – that’s why he got creamed in 2000 (too moderate).

now, barky with pelosi and reid is a different story… look at the dnc.

anybody thinkin’ maybe hillary as sec’y of state?

John McCain was correct when he said we must stand-up and fight for America. Just last night Russell Brand (host of an MTV award show) said…….Americans not voting for Obama are racist. Oh he said other things too……….MTV is owned by Viacom give them a shout-out stand-up and let your voice be heard.

I cast my first vote for George McGovern- so I’ve been around a few years. This is the first election cycle where I’m AFRAID of our opponent. Before- I disagreed, sometimes vehemently- but I’ve never experienced FEAR as a reaction to a Democrat presidential candidate.

My sentiments exactly. I too voted for McGovern. I am a Republican now, albeit an unhappy one. I do like McCain and Palin, and the Obama crowd scares the hell out of me.

Forget the riots happening in the Obama pit. Let them fight themselves over the left-over scraps.

People came, they saw Barack Obama and then they said, “Thanks, but no thanks.”

Due to the overwhelming and continuing spread of Obama’s nasty associations with jerks like Jeremiah Wright and unrepentant freaks like William Ayers, Obama’s poll numbers will be trampled on firmly by the public, theGOP elephant and torn apart by Sarah “Baracudda” Palin.

R.I.P. Obama wanna-be campaigner.

hahaha

Hey maybe the Big Bambino will be pulling some strings from the great beyond…

Wouldn’t it be ironic if Oblahblah gets curbed out of the race due to a technicality like he has been doing to his opponents. In this case a major technicality!

This is hillarious. Maummar Qaddafi thinks Obama is a Muslim.

“We still hope that this black man will take pride in his African and Islamic identity, and in his faith, and that he will know he has rights in America, and that he will change America from evil to good, and that America will establish relations that will serve it well with other peoples, especially the Arabs.” Maummar Qaddifi

….and BOYCOTT VIACOM TOO
!!

Qaddafi reads NQ!

I took Donna Brazile for herword..they didn’t want us and don’t need us..so fine with me..they stole my vote and then told us we were the Old Democratic party..and that the “NEW DEMOCRATIC PARTY” DOESN’T NEED US..they sure as hell didn’t need my vote in the primaries and they didn’t need our votes on the floor of the convention..so f’eck them..THEY WILL NOT HAVE ME IN ANY WAY THIS ELECTION..other than to see them go down…in flames.

No vote from me come November..in any race.

I will vote the top of the ticket ..McCain/Palin..and leave the rest blank…unless is was one of the supers that ignored the vote of the people..then I will vote against that person…if they voted against the people’s vote.

They chose this path..and following the worst nominee in my lifetime…now they will pay for it.

I hope the Democratic party goes down in flames..then we can start over with people with real democratic values and principles…and people willing to stand up to this sort of crap.

well atleast now we know who TwoTermObama was…

I hope the Democratic party goes down in flames..then we can start over with people with real democratic values and principles…and people willing to stand up to this sort of crap.

That would be the PUMAcratic Party lead by Hillary!

wow can you get a picture of that????????

love it!!

@gotalife;

spineless dems?

how ’bout ‘power grab’ from the clintons (?)

The change in anchors at MSNBC is front page on the FOX website. Those two assholes deserve it. They came in last in the polls! LMFAO

I’ll bet O’Reilly is slapping his knee in ecstasy!!

Somebody on here asked for a Wasilla 22 shirt. Well, I just had to do it.

“the Obama crowd scares the hell out of me.”

no kidding… my sentiments exactly…

I hear Qaddafi is bi- and he’s Jonesing for Barky.

Thanks Harp for the link..I sent it on to many!!

Wow great info there!!

….not that there’s anything wrong with it.

I think the race will be back in a dead heat in the next few weeks. Much of what has been said about Governor Palin’s accomplishments is exaggerated spin, easy fodder for the Obama campaign. Right now Senator McCain is riding high from his addition of Governor Palin to the ticket. But once the Obama campaign moves away from attacking her for being a mother, having a pregnant teenage daughter, etc… and moving onto her claims about how she took on the oil industry, cleaned house in Alaska and emphasize her conservative views and the nutty church she left in 2002 but was still speaking at this past June, we’re back at a draw.

To avoid that, the McCain campaign has to build on what Senator McCain is going to do for middle and lower income America. We need details on how he’s going to get us off of foreign oil, bring jobs, raise our standard of living, level the free trade field, stop inflation, etc… He can’t keep riding the tide of Governor Palin’s instant celebrity, national security, cutting wasteful spending and Country First without letting us know exactly how he’s going to make our lives better. He needs to flesh that it out.

If he doesn’t, it’s not going to look good for McCain when Obama starts mentioning that Palin spent $500 million to hire a company to construct the pipeline who doesn’t have the capital to do so and can’t do so unless Exxon is on board. Exxon is miffed at Palin and isn’t showing much interest in coming around to Palin’s way of thinking. BP and Conoco have said thanks, but no thanks, we don’t need your pipeline, we’ll build our own.

McCain is going to need something strong to combat Palin’s flaws beyond trying to ride his vice president’s celebrity coattails into the White House. This is a close election, he needs to get the voters supporting him, not entranced by his vice president. As wonderful as Palin might be, she has flaws and those flaws can be exaggerated and bump McCain back behind Obama in the polls if he can’t stand on his own.

Rezko’s testimony against others would require corroboration since he is now a convicted felon.

Don’t forget the Oblahblah team has cemented the idea there would be riots if Obama loses the election and an indictment in October would force him to quit. I’m not holding my breath on Oblahblah getting forced out of the race. He’s built himself some powerful protection. I really think the best we can hope for is he loses in November. I certainly would not complain if he was hauled off in handcuffs though.

Al Qaddafi made a long speech about Obama–it’s over at American Thinker

LMAO! You sure? Why not Kelvinator or Frizzy?

this is perhaps a must see:

http://lamecherry.blogspot.com/2008/09/thee-emancipation-palination-of-america.html

Where is Biden in all of this? Did he go off to Club Med for a holiday? And what about the repub 527s ripping a new one on Barky? Your analysis lacks critical details.

Monet

What the Beatles said from the rooftop.

New troll tactic: divert us from Barky’s major flaws to a policy debate such as what would have been between McCain and Hillary. Sorry trolls this is McCain vs Barky and his baggage is going to come tumbling down your granite heads now. America won’t elect the friend of America haters, terrorists and criminals.

According to the New York Post Keith Olberman and Chris Matthews have both been bumped from their anchor positions during the remainder of the elections. This includes the debates and election night coverage. They will be returned to their “Countdown” and “Hardball” programs only. Great news! This was, according to the Post due to their bias in the campaign.

This should have been done much sooner, then maybe Hillary would have gotten a fair shake and she would be the Democratic nominee.

Yup. Note to Brazile: we aren’t staying home.

so true. the “kill your parents” man runs sniffling home to daddy. “Daddy save me, save me. All I did was blow up a lot of stuff and try to terrorize the entire country. And now everyone’s MAD at me.”
nasty little piece of shite.

Monet said (re Palin):

“…emphasize her conservative views and the nutty church she left in 2002 but was still speaking at this past June, we’re back at a draw.

Whose nutty church??? Pot, meet kettle!

Vote Early. Vote Often. This project was paid for by TaxPayers’ Dogmas, spread across all 57 states. No politicians were maimed in the production of said no-bid concerts. The GoverNuts do not exist. We are Wizards of Mass Delusion. When I’m dead please bury me in downtown Chicago, so I can still keep casting my vote. Drive them Nuts. Wear 22!

I’m hoping for a full-blown “blow out” for the dems ticket!
A lose that is humiliating to Brazile especially, and throw in some “humble” pie for Pelosi, Reid, and Dean!
They couldn’t run with Hillary, so now let them wallow in the “pig slop”!

Biden has been LYING about how his wife and children were killed!

Obama LIED about the Kennedys bringing his father to America!
http://www.talkleft.com/story/2008/3/30/13655/6958

A quick google search reveals the facts – and the Kennedys also went along with the LIE.

These LIES are in the press – but not on Obamedia TV!

This is a reflection of their CHARACTER!
If they’d LIE about their own families, no telling what they’d do in the WH.

Keith Olberman is already going down the tube. According to the New York Post today, he and Chris Matthews are no longer going to anchor during the remainder of the election cycle. The will be sent back to their “Countdown” and “Hardball” shows due to complaints to the network of their bias for their particular candidate. Guess who? It sure wasn’t Hillary. If she had gotten fair coverage she would be our candidate now.

Well there goes two of his advocates.
Waiting for the rest.

Tweety and KO are the first to fall. Then the netkooks like Ariana, Markos, Josh Marshall, etc.. that labeled the Clintons racists.

The DNC and their scam of a primary. Blast them, you know who they are.

A reckoning, if you will.

Post a quote. I won’t click a link without some idea what it is about.

“I think Palin is clueless.” Maybe, but she’s getting pretty good reviews from the military in her state.

Also, this from a military blogger (posted at abcnews.com): “Alaska is the first line of defense in our missile defense system. The 49th Missile Defense Battalion of the Alaska National Guard protects the entire nation from ballistic missile attacks. It’s on permanent active duty, unlike other Guard units. As governor of Alaska, Palin is briefed on highly classified military issues, homeland security, and counter terrorism. Her exposure to classified material may rival Biden’s.”

my imaginary friend can beat up your imaginary friend

Maybe it has something to do with that recent poll stating that more than 50% of Americans believe the media is biased. Possibly, network execs are starting to worry that American think the media is a joke.

See now when I read that I thought “Viacom” was
Viagra. I like it better that way. “MTV is owned by Viagra. Give them a shout-out stand-up and let your voice be heard.”

(heh heh)

Add David Shuster to the list of those who should be fired. Remember his crass remark concerning Chelsea Clinton? He got a mere slap on the wrist – 2 weeks off.

Palin anti-rumor site:

http://explorations.chasrmartin.com/2008/09/06/palin-rumors/

Interesting blogger on Gretawire…just rumor, but it’s his opinion the plot is the Dems. are moving heaven and earth so Obama gets elected, they then lower the boom on Obama (maybe proving he’s not a natural born citizen) and he’s removed, somehow do away with Biden, then following the progression they get the speaker of the house, Nancy Pelosi for President.

Senator Obama isn’t trying to ride into the White House on Senator Biden’s celebrity coattails. The last I heard, Senator Biden is in Wisconsin today at a town hall meeting.

Here’s a some Alaska oil stuff for you to research. Spend an hour or two googling, you’ll find Governor Palin’s claims beating the oil companies at their game has a lot of holes in it and will be fodder for the 527′s. McCain needs to stand on his own, he isn’t going to ride into the White House on Governor Palin’s white reform horse.

I should note that Governor Palin’s tax law replaced the previous governor’s tax law that was enacted in 2006. Prior to 2006, the tax law lowered the taxes owed on oil that came from fields where it was difficult to harvest and deducted transportation costs. When oil prices rose, the oil companies were able to keep their tax burden low. The previous governor’s tax law had lots of loopholes, based on the premise if the oil companies weren’t getting a break, they wouldn’t fund the natural gas pipeline. Governor Palin’s plan called ACES, was to fix the problems with the previous governor’s PPT plan.

From my research, Governor Palin has raised oil production taxes on state lands from 22.5% to 25% of the net profits. During low price periods there is an additional 10% gross revenue tax on legacy fields that don’t require lots of input of new capital. When prices are high, there’s a progressive surcharge tax for each additional dollar per barrel when the profit per barrel exceeds $30. If oil is at $100 per barrel, the tax jumps to 35% and can go as high as 50%.

http://www.legis.state.ak.us/basis/get_bill_text.asp?hsid=HB2001G&session=25

When the price is high, what incentive is there for the oil companies to invest and drill in Alaska? Especially if we’re opening up offshore exploration and drilling? A smart company would put their efforts into exploration and drilling somewhere other than Alaska when prices are high.

An editorial criticizing Governor Palin’s taxes on the oil companies:
http://housemajority.org/item.php?id=item20071111-345

In July, BP announced it’s new development called Liberty will be on federal land, not Alaskan state land. On federal land, Alaska doesn’t receive production taxes and only receives a royalty over the life of the project. Conoco had planned to build a refinery in Alaska but announced it’s canceled the project. The reason given is they don’t have the funds for it after paying their tax bill. The tax law that Governor Palin enacted doesn’t necessarily make it worthwhile for the oil companies to invest in the Alaskan state land they hold leases for or improve their holdings when oil prices are high.

The new tax law has been around for less than an year. It’s too early to decide if Governor Palin’s showdown with the oil companies has her coming out the winner. But so far, while it has given Alaska a windfall in oil tax money this year, long term might be another story.

Then there’s the natural gas pipeline. The McCain campaign would have us believe the pipeline is ready go, in Governor Palin’s acceptance speech she said: “I fought to bring about the largest private-sector infrastructure project in North American history. And when that deal was struck, we began a nearly forty billion dollar natural gas pipeline to help lead America to energy independence.” That is far from the truth.

Governor Palin’s predecessor had cut a sweetheart deal with the oil companies where if I remember correctly, if they built the pipeline, they would receive $4 billion and a 40 year tax cut. It’s no wonder Governor Palin threw that deal out. But the oil companies weren’t happy to see their deal go up in smoke, especially when Governor Palin said they were obligated to provide the natural gas for the pipeline even though she tossed their sweetheart deal out. She asked for bids on the pipeline, the oil companies refused to participate.

Alaska accepted TransCanada’s bid and granted the company $500 million and a state license with no guarantee the pipeline will be built – there’s no construction contract. TransCanada doesn’t have the capital or the necessary gas reserves to start construction. Conoco and BP have proposed their own pipeline, the Denali Pipeline. If TransCanada never builds the pipeline, Alaska owes TransCanada up to $500 million for costs the company incurs, even without one foot of pipeline being laid.

http://www.petroleumnews.com/pntruncate/503007715.shtml

Instead of negotiating with the oil companies for the natural gas line, the Palin administration decided they would rely on public and share holder pressure to force Exxon, BP and Conoco to fund it. So far, it isn’t working well. TransCanada insists they can’t start the project until Exxon is providing financial support. BP and Conoco want to build their own pipeline and Exxon is spending money on lawyers.

Alaska has two gas fields and both are needed to make a pipeline profitable. Exxon and Alaska are in litigation over the development of one of the gas fields, Point Thompson. Exxon has proposed a court ordered plan where they would spend $1.3 billion to develop the field for the pipeline. For some reason, the Palin administration rejected the plan and instead continues to pursue litigation and has rejected the court ordered mediation that Exxon would prefer. Unless the state reaches an agreement with Exxon over the Point Thompson field, no one is funding Governor Palin’s pipeline. Transcanada has proposed the idea that the U.S. government agree to pay billions in pipeline transportation fees as a bridge shipper in case the oil companies can’t provide enough natural gas to operate the pipeline at full capacity.

Governor Palin was in a stand off with oil companies, waiting for Exxon to blink first. Now that the McCain campaign has announced the gas pipeline is a done deal, the Governor no longer has Exxon under her thumb. Exxon now has the advantage. Without Exxon’s commitment to send enough natural gas down the pipeline to put it in the black, Transcanada is going to shuffle around incurring costs and there will be no start date for construction. When Transcanada’s cost reach $500 million, they’ll disappear.

Governor Palin also claimed in her acceptance speech that she broke the oil companies’ monopoly on power and resources. The leases the oil companies have were granted years ago and grant them the rights to develop the oil and gas resources on state leased land. Nothing has broken up that monopoly.

I ask, how were the oil companies taken down? If they don’t want to pay the higher taxes, they’ll lower production and development in Alaska when oil prices are high and raise production elsewhere. The natural gas pipeline is no further along that it was four years ago when Congress passed a loan guarantee for $18 million to promote the development of the pipeline. The same companies still hold the leases in in Alaska. Governor Palin is costing Exxon a lot in legal fees over the Point Thompson field, which is probably annoying the company, but is that taking them down?

The Palin nomination changed the election from Democrat vs Republican to Democrat vs Maverick. Exactly which party now represents Biz as Usual and which party represents change?

I think you’re smoking something that is only legal if you are suffering from an illness far more serious than delusion … but that’s just one woman’s opinion …..

Let me get this straight – A so-called Reformer mired in Chicago politics. What’s wrong with this picture?

yup anytime now they’ll say that mcain is too old and a racist. they’ll also say that palin has no experience and can’t handle the job and 5 children. oh that’s right they already did that.

i am sure that obiewon’tshutmymouth and matthews have contracts. if the loss in viewers gets too bad, even that won’t matter.

Read on another blog that the “community organizing” Obummer did was signing people up to vote….for him.

I have as much faith in the MSM as I did in Pravda and Investia during the 1980s.

Record harvest
Workers are Happy
100% cast vote for Breznev

where is donna these days. of course i don’t watch cnn.

Actually Brazile is factually wrong. Jesus left the Community Organizing to the Apostles. And St. Paul with his letters might have been the Early Church’s most effective Community Organizer. St. Paul, however, spent much of this time in jail. Hmmmm … That reminds me of a different candidate entirely.

In the debate between the Beatles and the Stones, I fall into the category of Let It Bleed.

I don’t believe in putting my head in the sand and arguing Senator McCain should be president based on unsubstantiated, exaggerated claims of his vice president nominee. Senator McCain needs to stand on his own. If the plan is for him to win the election with Governor Palin’s celebrity, he’s going to be back in the Senate on November 5th with Senator Clinton. Senator McCain is only going to be able to lean and feed on Governor Palin up to a point. Once Senator Obama quits hitting her for being a woman and moves onto showing her career achievements in an exaggerated negative light, it’s going to be a different story. Unfortunately, her dealings with the oil companies gives Senator Obama a lot of fodder.

The media has brushed under the rug major problems Obama has with his past that are a far cry from anything Palin has to worry about. And Palin is becoming a media darling in her own right. And last I heard Obama was running against McCain. Or is he now running only against Palin? That’s what you make it sound like.

perry while you were asleep at the wheel the democrats changed into repub lite.

Palin was just introduced yet you make it sound like that is all he has to stand on. Your argument once again falls flat on its face.

the wu had a lot to do with the liberals losing a lot of voters in the past in a backlash sort of way. they gave support actually to right wing talking points. out of touch liberals, etc. and what does the dnc do about it? let history repeats itself, that’s what!

” – and he never delivered.”

I think you are correct. Obama’s stodgy, uninspired choice of Biden as VP deflated much of the early excitement.

If he had chosen Hillary as VP (and if she would have accepted), the election would be over. Obama would be 20 points ahead in the polls right now.

What is also happening is that many early Obama supporters, like me, have had time to get over our crushes and come back down to earth, and we have finally recognized the bias in the press.

I am now seriously more enthused about McCain/Palin after hearing that Governor Palin is a believer in separation of church and state. She backed extending state benefits to gay employees’ partners. And, I really appreciated her hat tip to Geraldine and Hillary.

Shhhh don’t talk about Obama’s record. This election is only about Palin vs the oil companies and McCain only running on her celebrity, according to Monet.

hahahahahaha Jeremiah, you’re funny!

the right wing pundits during the repub convention said yeah put joe in the cabinet but not veep. that may very well be what happens.

NEW POLL DATA!!!

Smoking something, and sippin on that Kool-aid. Man poor Bot is going need a tankful. Purge, bigtime when this Paris Hilton party is over with.

to Jeremiah God Damn Amerikkka Wright…

I like your message!!
I approve most heartedly!!

brazile is wrong about everything. jesus said render to caesar what is caesar’s and to god what is gods’s. seems to me jesus was saying that he is a sprititual leader and didn’t come to lead a government.

this move has been coming. abrams shifted back to behind the scenes. i don’t look for maddow to last very long at all. she hasn’t performed well and her numbers can’t be very good.

well maybe not the first time around, but since many would like us to believe that Barrack is the second Coming…perhaps his interests have changed?

Cramer was on Scarborough show this morn..before Axelrod and he said boldly several times..the Dem party was responsible for the failure of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and all who were there kept laughing and making jokes as if to try to over shadow what Cramer was saying..he said all the lobby money from both went to dems ..

Of Course all the applologists on MSNBC..wanted to over shadow what he was saying..Except Pat Buchannan..

and the two heads of Fannie and Freddie are sidelined but not fired..so they can get severance pay…from What Cramer was saying.

it is digusting using all that bandwidth with obambi talking points.

Governor Palin has her own nutty church, she attended it from her childhood through adulthood and according to CNN chose a new church in 2002. She supposedly left the church in ’02 because she decided they were getting too weird. I have to agree with her assessment.

Two days ago I found video of her from this past June giving a speech to the nutty church’s youth group. She mentions that the young people must pray for the natural oil pipeline because the will of God is going to be needed to get it built. (I’m not completely comfortable with a governor asking people to pray for the will of God to build pipelines, but she’s in a church and my research into the pipeline indicates it may take a miracle to get it built – so I’ll give her a pass). Next she says Iraq is a task from God. (I’m less comfortable with that, don’t Islamic extremists think they’re on a task from God? But once again, she’s speaking in a church, I’ll let it go that she is mixing religion with government). She also points out a what I assume is a red head kid and says his or her attractiveness will help in passing on whatever message they’re trying to bring new converts in on.

In the second part of the video, the pastor speaks while Governor Palin stands next to him. He talks about a catastrophic event that is going to happen to the lower 48 states that will have refugees fleeing to Alaska, where this church will minister to the refugees. The church must be ready for this great event. CNN is playing that section of the video today. (This part I find very nutty and think Governor Palin should have used much better judgment in continuing a relationship with the church after she left in 2002).

Anyway, here are links to the videos. The videos were posted by Obamabots, so ignore their comments that pop up and after the first few minutes of the second part of the video, the rest is Obamabot propaganda and not worth watching.

What is it about politicians crowned with celebrity and the nutty churches?

Monet:

If Exxon, BP or any other oil company wants to build a pipeline through Sarah Palin’s state, it is the oil company that needs her on board.

Oops. Natural gas pipeline, not natural oil.

hey Donna..William Ayers the terorrist and American bomber..was a community organizer along with your guy Obama..

wonder how Jesus views them ??????????

Under the 25th Amendment, Pelosi would have to work fast to get Biden out of the way. If Senator Biden is sworn in as president under this theory, he would appoint a vice president and once Congress approves the choice, that person would be vice president and would succeed Senator Biden if he for some reason left the presidency.

In 1973, it took President Nixon two months from when Spiro Agnew resigned to swear in President Ford as vice president. After President Nixon resigned in 1974, Nelson Rockerfeller was sworn in four months later. Pelosi would have mere weeks to remove Senator Biden to take over his place in the Oval Office.

At least Sarah Palin has accomplishments that can be exaggerated; that is better than having no accomplishments at all.

A full 24+ hours since the polls show McCain leading and CNN.com still does not show it on their website.

The Emperor is naked folks, stop pretending he is wearing a tux….

Local newspaper has story

No, that is not what I’m saying. What I am saying is the consensus seems to be that Governor Palin is the major boost in Senator McCain’s rise in popularity. If that is the case and he hasn’t risen in the polls on his own merits, he’s not going to sustain his lead. Governor Palin has her own flaws and skeletons that the Democrats can capitalize on, she’s not a paragon of wonderfulness that can sustain the post convention boost. The race is going to be back in a deadheat unless McCain can flesh out his platform or persuade voters that Wright and Ayers make Senator Obama unfit to be president. So far, the latter doesn’t appear to be the cause of his boost. There’s the dual citizenship thingy, but that is moving so slowly, Senator Obama could be sworn in as president before the Court reaches a decision on whether he’s eligible to be president.

I’d quit talking about Governor Palin, praising the spin we’ve been told about her and spending so much time defending her. Instead I’d be working to find ways to build up McCain on his own merits. McCain can’t count on the Instant Palin Celebrity to win this election.

or Francis?

PS:

Even Drudge is acknowledging the McCain lead in the polls….

Matthew 7:3

And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

Back-track O

I always love your comments. But this comment is especially important. All Obama has now is his standards:

Divide and Conquer (his opposition)
Voter suppression (keep the opposition at home)
Cheat

PUMA

CNN just released. Amazingly they are tied. haha. Got to love cnn.

Senator Obama runs against who ever he can hit harder. He has Palin fodder to attack McCain with. He’s going to use it.

While the networks love Palin because she raises the ratings, they aren’t particular about whether they’re showing her in a positive or negative light. Last week they didn’t have to jump on the baby rumors, but they did. Today CNN is airing the speech she gave to her nutty church in June.

While the networks may be giving Governor Palin a lot of air time and talking about how terrible the sexism directed at her is, they aren’t hiding or ignoring her flaws like they are with Senator Obama. I expect to see in the weeks to come they will point out that while she claims she beat the oil companies at their own game, she and the oil companies are engaged in a stand off and no one is giving ground – especially where the natural gas pipeline is concerned.

I’m not attacking Governor Palin, I’m only pointing out that Senator Obama has material to attack her with, he will and if Senator McCain’s boost in the polls is mostly from Palin – he’s not going to keep his lead.

I hope Obama throws kos under the bus soon. It will be hard the rest of under the bus to deal with roomie-kos, but I’m willing to make sacrifices.

Just waiting on CBS now.

I think you have something here.

why not? Obama is counting on his celebrity. Whats good for the Fauxbama is good for the Moosehunter.

Thanks cpl Very impressive..Information such as you cited needs to be given more exposure. If you had not posted link- I would not be aware. Where is this on MSM? TG for internet. We tend to have such short memories here in America. More people need to be kept informed regarding these matters. Thanks

I wonder why Real Clear is no longer tracking Zogby?

Just wait until they start hittin Biden and ∅bama on their back scratching with earmarks.

OK, nearly a day and half after the polls show McCain in the lead CNN finally posts info on their website. Unfortunatly they revised the data to say that the race is tied….WTF!

I suggest you google Denali Pipeline. You can start here:

http://www.denali-thealaskagaspipeline.com/ads.html
http://www.alaskajournal.com/stories/062208/hom_20080622033.shtml
http://www.adn.com/news/alaska/story/434470.html
http://newsminer.com/news/2008/jun/20/denali-pipeline-brings-jobs-and-apprehension-tok/

BP and Conoco have funding for their pipeline. Governor Palin doesn’t for her pipeline. BP and Conoco are trying to get Exxon to join them. Governor Palin can’t build hers without Exxon. She’s refusing to negotiate with Exxon. In the end, which pipeline is more likely to be built? The one that is unfunded and needs people to pray for the will of God or the one the oil companies are funding?

It’s the Denali pipeline that will be built, Governor Palin will take credit for it and TransCanada will walk away with up to $500 million from the Alaskan treasury. If Senator Obama is willing to drag a seventeen year old girl into the presidential race, he’s going to point this out within the next few weeks.

All I’m saying is there’s fodder to kill the Palin bounce. We can’t let up on Senator Obama, thinking that Senator McCain is going to keep his lead. He isn’t. We need to get off the Palin high and get back to defeating Senator Obama.

i believe that was the plan from the get go!!

Funny thing with polls is how they can sway/lead opinion. Us ignrant redneks will lead the way

“New troll tactic: divert us from Barky’s major flaws to a policy debate such as what would have been between McCain and Hillary. Sorry trolls this is McCain vs Barky and his baggage is going to come tumbling down your granite heads now. America won’t elect the friend of America haters, terrorists and criminals.”

Just when do you think America is going to wake up and take notice of Senator Obama’s associations with Ayers, Wright, ACORN, fake birth certificate, etc…? The networks haven’t jumped on it yet. Fox mentions Ayers occasionally, but how many Democrats who have decided to vote for Senator Obama or independents leaning towards him are watching Fox?

This race will go back to a dead heat again. Obama will put his 527′s out, McCain his. Another draw.

All I’m saying is get off of the Palin high and thinking McCain is going to sustain this lead. It’s time to get back to working on defeating Senator Obama. We need to keep digging into his background and giving the 527′s fodder. It was the work of bloggers that have led to Berg’s lawsuit and the 527′s we’ve seen so far. We have the power to to get McCain into office, but not if we spend our time praising and defending Palin and talking about sexism. It’s time to get back to taking Senator Obama down.

Its all about likely voters now and McCain is movein on up.

What are you going to do dear bot, about Obama’s spin when it shatters in a million pieces? Can’t wait to see, when the very real scandals about him hit the front pages of the now repenting MSM. My, my I will be looking forward to reading your manuscripts then. Good luck and make sure you collect your check before OB heads for home with an empty wallet and no credibility. Have a nice day.

That post strikes me as being very much on target. The Palin personality bounce will likely be fading by the end of the week.

While it lasts, though, McCain will be in the spotlight. The question is whether or not he can capitalize on the moment by shifting voter attention to a topic that will have more staying power. This will be tricky.

If he uses his time in the spotlight to go strongly negative on Obama again, he risks damaging the more favorable impression of his campaign they’ve just managed to create.

If he focuses closely on real economic troubles and his own actual policies, he runs the risk of reminding the voters which party is largely responsible for those troubles, and that his own policies are merely a continuation of the policies that created the trouble in the first place.

That pretty much leaves him with a single option: He’s got to play up his image as an idealistic anti-establishment reformer for all he’s worth, while keeping all of the serious issues he’s got no answers for well in the background.

That seems to be what they’ve settled on. They’re holding out the power of the presidential veto as the righteous weapon they’ll use to fight against earmarks, pork barrel spending, corruption, and special interest lobbyists. This is very interesting, considering that John has had more lobbyists directly involved in his campain than all the other 2008 presidential contenders combined. His top advisors are or have been registered lobbyists. He’s directly involved in promoting the agenda of Big Oil in a very high-profile fashion, as is his running mate. (Will he actually pledge to go after his own biggest campaign funders? That would certainly make his pitch more credible.)

There’s also the uncomfortable fact that during the last 8 to 10 years, the republicans have been far more been deeply and widely involved in highly questionable lobbying practices than their democratic colleagues. “The Culture of Corruption” was an earned title. The names have run through the headlines over the past few years: Tom DeLay, Randy Cunningham, Bob Ney, Bill Frist, Dennis Hastert, Curt Weldon… Jack Abramoff was just sentenced on additional charges this past week.

Kevin — those so-called ignorant voters grow our food and fight our wars — show some respect.

Steve CNN and the rest are using registered voters which makes the lead appear to be smaller. But then we have no news media–

I feel the same, and I volunteered for McGovern before I was old enough to vote. Obama & Co are authoritarians who would concoct a scenario to impose tyranny if they got hold of the levers of power. I doubt there will even be an election in 2012 if he wins.

Steve my favorite is the Hillary voters — 45% going for McCain. The DNC and Obama deny we exist. Why Gloria Steinem says she has never met one. She should get out of NYC where the real people live and she would find millions of us.

Monet — Palin fills out McCain’s ticket and shows that these are two mavericks. The difference for McCain is the 8 Million Clinton voters and we love Palin.

Jeremiah, have you looked at the titles of the posts today? Over a dozen of the post titles suggest topics thrilled about the convention boost and Governor Palin. One title suggests it may contain material that gives information as to why Senator McCain would be a better choice for president (Mavericks for Change). I haven’t read that post yet, so I don’t know if my interpretation is correct. There are less than five posts that have information that indicate Senator Obama is unfit to be president.

Governor Palin can’t defeat Senator Obama. She can’t win the election for Senator McCain. She has her own baggage that can bring the convention boost back down. We need to call a halt to the Governor Palin lovefest and get back to working on digging up the truth about Senator Obama and finding reasons why Senator McCain on the merits (not based on Governor Palin’s popularity) is the better candidate for president. If we’re going to put any focus on Governor Palin, it should be to find factual information that her governing decisions are not influenced by her conservative religious views.

Its called sarcasm
that’s what I do
(I’m an army vet btw)

You missed Shuster – the creep who dissed Chelsea Clinton.

Yes, we love Palin – she’s brought a new energy to the McCain campaign. For McCain to win, he has to bring Ohio, Michigan, Florida, Colorado, Virginia, etc… over to his side. Unfortunately 8 million Clinton voters spread across those states can’t do that on their own. Also 8 million of us aren’t voting for McCain. Some are abstaining, some are voting third party or writing in Hillary.

Palin isn’t as successful at being a maverick as we’ve been led to believe. Yes, she’s stood up to corruption in her party, helped passed ethics legislation and gone after the oil companies and is currently at a passe with them. Does anyone in Sterling Hts., Michigan or Youngstown, Ohio care about Republican corruption and ethics in Juneau? They probably think Anchorage is the capital of Alaska and wonder what the heck Juneau is. What a voter in Sterling Hts., Michigan or Youngstown, OH cares about is whether GM is going to lay him or her off and how much it’s going to cost to fill their car up with gas this week.

When Obama’s ads come out attacking Governor Palin on her oil industry record, Anderson Cooper starts explaining there are two pipelines in development and Governor Palin’s has no backing, those people in Sterling Hts. and Youngstown who were thinking about voting for McCain based on Governor Palin start rethinking it. Then they start wondering if the oil companies are paying higher taxes in Alaska now, does that mean they’re paying more money at the pump because of Governor Palin? Many people were thinking about not voting this November until Palin showed up. They’ll stay home. Some may decide to vote for Obama. Senator McCain’s lead dries up.

All I’m saying is don’t put all your eggs in the Palin basket. It will fail. We need to stop focusing on her. She doesn’t need us to fawn at or defend her celebrity, there’s more than enough people doing that already who can keep her flame burning. We need to get back to stressing McCain’s strengths that don’t include Palin and taking Obama down. If we don’t keep stressing his associations with Ayers, Wright, Rezko, etc… dual citizenship, faked birth certificate – no one else will. The Ayers ad has been airing for a couple of weeks now (at least on the networks that weren’t intimidated to remove it) and it doesn’t appear to have as yet done much to persuade people not to vote for him. Unless we keep digging into Ayers and find out what is in the Anneberg papers, the media isn’t going to touch it. But if they would touch Governor Palin’s teenage daughter and her nutty church today, they’re going to start looking into the natural gas pipeline soon and discover her pipeline has no funding and the oil companies are thumbing their noses at her and building their own.

Yes, we love Palin – she’s brought a new energy to the McCain campaign. For McCain to win, he has to bring Ohio, Michigan, Florida, Colorado, Virginia, etc… over to his side. Unfortunately 8 million Clinton voters spread across those states can’t do that on their own. Also 8 million of us aren’t voting for McCain. Some are abstaining, some are voting third party or writing in Hillary.

Palin isn’t as successful at being a maverick as we’ve been led to believe. Yes, she’s stood up to corruption in her party, helped passed ethics legislation and gone after the oil companies and is currently at a passe with them. Does anyone in Sterling Hts., Michigan or Youngstown, Ohio care about Republican corruption and ethics in Juneau? They probably think Anchorage is the capital of Alaska and wonder what the heck Juneau is. What a voter in Sterling Hts., Michigan or Youngstown, OH cares about is whether GM is going to lay him or her off and how much it’s going to cost to fill their car up with gas this week.

When Obama’s ads come out attacking Governor Palin on her oil industry record, Anderson Cooper starts explaining there are two pipelines in development and Governor Palin’s has no backing, those people in Sterling Hts. and Youngstown who were thinking about voting for McCain based on Governor Palin start rethinking it. Then they start wondering if the oil companies are paying higher taxes in Alaska now, does that mean they’re paying more money at the pump because of Governor Palin? Many people were thinking about not voting this November until Palin showed up. They’ll stay home. Some may decide to vote for Obama. Senator McCain’s lead dries up.

All I’m saying is don’t put all your eggs in the Palin basket. It will fail. We need to stop focusing on her. She doesn’t need us to fawn at or defend her celebrity, there’s more than enough people doing that already who can keep her flame burning. We need to get back to stressing McCain’s strengths that don’t include Palin and taking Obama down. If we don’t keep stressing his associations with Ayers, Wright, Rezko, etc… dual citizenship, faked birth certificate – no one else will. The Ayers ad has been airing for a couple of weeks now (at least on the networks that weren’t intimidated to remove it) and it doesn’t appear to have as yet done much to persuade people not to vote for him. Unless we keep digging into Ayers and find out what is in the Anneberg papers, the media isn’t going to touch it.

If Obama would touch Governor Palin’s teenage daughter and her nutty church today, they’re going to start looking into the natural gas pipeline soon, discover her pipeline has no funding and the oil companies are thumbing their noses at Palin’s Alaska Gasline Inducement Act (AGIA) and going ahead with building their own. (The TransCanada deal conforms with the AGIA that Palin had enacted – the oil companies don’t like it and aren’t conforming to it). In the end, if a pipeline is built, it’s going to be the Denali one since the oil companies are behind it. Palin will say this was her strategy all along, but Obama will point out her TransCanada pipeline is dead in the water and will cost Alaska up to $500 million while the oil companies are moving forward without her with a pipeline – one she’s taking credit for.

The Democrats need to win this election. Obama should show his love of country by resigning as the Presidential nominee and let Sen Hillary Clinton run as the Democratic nominee.

yes but Rupert Murdoch appeared to be endorsing Obummer and I for one have been very very worried about that

now it looks like he is not getting in the way of Faux and the NYPost among other assets doing their thing

despite his daughter being an Obummer fan

Let me get this straight… you think it’s a bad strategy to compare the celebrity status of a VP candidate to the celebrity status of a Presidential candidate… uhhhh ok.

You think it’s a a bad idea to allow the Dems to go after Palin for the pipeline? Gee, you think the Repubs will point out she has pissed off big oil. You think the voters would rather hear she caved to big oil. Let me point out, reality doesn’t matter, perception does. The winning story line is that she pissed off big oi.

Monet, I have followed your posts rather closely, and it is obvious that you are an Obamabot.

Is your real name Soros, Axelrod, Dean, Brazile or Pelosi? Or perhaps a combination of all of the above.

Keep your supposed concern about the defeat of Obama being in jeopardy because of Sarah Palin.

Millions of us (18 million in fact) were against Obama from the gitgo and most of us still are. You don’t fool us with your tripe – take it to DK.

I have been doing that as well and complaining to the manger in every store I see this crxp in..

he is soo right as usual Queenie, the DEMS blocked the reform of fannie and freddie that the feds have been asking for forevah..

and they took GOBS of lobbist dough and their ACORN and other assorted groups are funded via the freddie fannie pie like you said.

yep exactly
nailed it

and Dodd is gonna hold a hearing? ROTFLMAO!! Dodd “I got a VIP loan from Countrywide” who started this shxtstorm ?

yeah good luck with that one

ROTFLMAO!!

when the race card and misogyny card fail, play the Jesus angle

niiiiiice

I suggest you stop using Google which is backing Obummer to convince us of anything

and MAC has plenty to work with on Obummer as well

MAC/PALIN 08
HILLARY 12

Isnt chas martin the first name put on the ridiculous email letter with a bunch of bs attacks on Palin? then they switched the name to annie someone?

LOL

but why do you assume that this is all there is?

I dont :0)

I have bene follopwing MACs econ 101 plans closely..

it woll come

first they had to pop the celebrity bubble and even out the polls

why change the game when they are WINNING….

MAC gave specifics in his convention speech on how he will reshape the DOL unemployment bens to cover retraining and give wage insurance..

how has Obummer explained anything? he hasnt

why would we move off the message that is still working?

we wouldnt

IIRC RCP stopped factoring in the USA Today polls also

guess MAC was doing too well in that one..

Senator Clinton campaigning in Florida, speaking about the economy. Man, why was my party sooooo stupid! I’m glad she is not attacking Palin. Let the phoney one do his own dirty work.

Cnn, the words of Rev Manning, the Cable Negro Network. Cover stories on Palin religion, church and pster. Man, those assholes just don’t get it! Palin left that church over 6 years ago, they trying real hard to find anythig? They found NADA, nothing, no God Damn America, where the phoney one spend 20 years.

This person who posts as “Monet” has me puzzled.
While trying to convince us that he/she is against Obama “Monet” keeps downplaying our enthusiasm for Governor Palin. While she is running for VP, not Prez, Governor Palin is definetly frightening the Obots.

I was going to vote for John McCain even before Governor Palin came on board. She is just the icing on the cake.

John McCain is a true American heroe. The fact that he is a maverick who does not tow the Republican line exclusively makes him an even more attractive candidate. Nobody is overlooking his attributes. His acceptance speech so outclassed that of Obama’s that only a dunce could not see the difference in the two men. McCain’s speech was all about country and the people. Obama’s speech was all about himself. That is, the parts that weren’t stolen from Hillary Clinton.

As for bringing out more facts about Obama’s past and his disreputable associates, rest assured that those matters will be addressed in the next few weeks.

AND if Philip Berg is successful in getting an expedited discovery pertaining to his lawsuit that will just add more meat to the pot.

SO lay off Governor Palin. I’m sure she will be able to handle anything they throw her way. Just remember, she has a real man (John McCain) to back her up. She won’t be left dangling in the wind, the our Hillary was.

Attacking Palin has been a losing strategy so far, why would Obama/Axelrod continue it? They need to retool their strategy, not continue down the same losing path. Also, BO desparately needs to campaign for President, not VP. McCain appears like he’s already the President and he also looks like a father/grandfather figure to boot (that is not a bad thing).

BO was dragged across the finish line unable to close the deal. He hasn’t had many positive results with actual voters since HRC won Ohio and Texas back at the beginning of March.

I don’t have a dog in this fight, but if I were Obama I would go the opposite direction from the strategy you outline. He is running out of time, he needs to define his POSITONS and POLICIES. He needs to grab the economy as an issue in a BIG way and not let go of it from now until November 4.

You are right these polls will tighten again, but Obama needs to get out in front of something and get some momentum. Right now he is like a sailboat in ‘dead calm’ unable to move, just floating and waiting for God to help. Ain’t going to happen. For the first time in his life, he’s going to have to earn something.

lee m……

olbermann and mathews should not have been demoted.

they should have been fired outright.

however….they did what they were put there to do…..

which was to take Hillary down and shill for obama.

now msnbc is trying to get real viewers back, and copping to the fact that they may have been a little biased. yeah, now that most people with brain matter that works will have NOTHING to do with them.

we are not amused.

we will not be viewing msnbc.

Deb

axelrod is the biggest con artist in politics.

luckily for this country we see right through him.

and his product obama.

no sale david.

Polls are real tricky things in this election. Three reasons:

1. Pollsters don’t include cell phones. Many young voters, first time young voters, etc., don’t have land lines and use only cell phones. So like Chuck Todd of MSNBC has suggested Obama’s strength may be actually be underestimated by polling data. This is a potential plus for Obama.

2. Related to point #1 above is the question of turn-out for the youth vote. If the youth vote is energized, then turn out will be high. Duh! But then again, the youth vote is notoriously fickle and often stays home. Moreover, Obama’s positives have taken a real hit since he began his brazen flip-flopping back in June. (Actually, Barack O’Bullshit was always flip-flopping and pulling bait-n-switches since day one—it’s just that the corporate media was keeping it under raps.) High youth voter turn-out is a direct result of how inspired young voters are. If they are seeing a brazen flip-flopper, i.e. the TRUTH, then they will NOT come out in big numbers.

3. The Bradley-Wilder Effect: People will lie to pollsters for fear of being perceived as racist, i.e. this is a huge negative for Obama. On the other hand, working class whites have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of since he called them not just “bitter” but also racist, i.e. “They cling to … antipathy towards those that aren’t like them… antipathy towards immigrants.” And then there’s his pile of slippery statements concerning Jeremiah “God Damn America” Wright.

If it is a close race, then McCain-Palin should beat him easily. Obama needs a cushion of about 10 percentage points to ensure the Bradley-Wilder effect doesn’t do him in.

And let’s not forget, we do not have a direct democracy, but rather an electoral college. So the respective polling data for battleground states is more important than the national polling data.

Well look where the challenge to separation of church and state is coming from. Chicago again…….

Wonder if Obama mangy fingers are in this?

CHICAGO – Declaring that clergy have a constitutional right to endorse political candidates from their pulpits, the socially conservative Alliance Defense Fund is recruiting several dozen pastors to do just that on Sept. 28, in defiance of Internal Revenue Service rules.

Jerry …you crack me up

Oh me too ……Scared to death. In fact I have considered selling all and leaving this country I love so much, called America, in the event he steals wins the election. Leave and give up or stay and defend? If America falls, then the rest of the world will fall too. Better to stay and defend.

Michelle used a phrase out of one of Alinsky’s books. She said Barry’ said it, so she lied as well as lifted eh? Think the book was Handbook for Radicals.

Maybe Paul or someone else here can make that video. You are right it would be terrible in a needful way.

Expect and prepare for the United Nations to rear their heads. Some Democrats called them in to watch this election, to guard against what else but racism. Besides trying to rile up supporters, Obama’s camp is trying to build up a case. So let’s each go to our supervisor of elections and let them know in a nice way that we will be watching. Ask can we be poll watchers. Count votes
I think the electronic voting machines will come into play. Anyone one got ideas how we can protect against that kind of fraud?

Let’s assign blame where blame should be.

The Chicago Sun-Times reported August 3, 2001:

Superior Bank, half-owned by the wealthy Pritzker family, was shut down by the FDIC Friday after a bailout plan by the Pritzkers, who own the Hyatt Hotel chain, and their partner, New York real estate developer Alvin Dworman, fell through. The bank failed because it had lost nearly all of its more than $2 billion of assets on bad loans to high-risk borrowers, federal regulators said.

When is someone going to talk about Obama’s financial campaign chairman – Penny Pritzker, that cost the Federal Government – taxpayers one billion dollars when Superior Bank failed, and 450 million dollars still owed to the FDIC – and they gave her 15 years to pay back – no interest.

The bank engaged in deceptive and faulty lending, questionable accounting practices, and charged hidden fees. It made thousands of dubious loans to mostly poor, strapped homeowners. A disproportionate number of them were minority.

These questions need to be asked and answered.

Mr. Obama, why does she still have a principal financial role in your campaign?

Mr Obama, if Obama elected will you waive this money owed?

Barack Obama talks how hundreds have lost in the sub prime mess. It seems like the only person to come out well was his finance manager. And he knows it.
Guess that is just the “Chicago Way”.

http://www.loanworkout.org/ 2008/03/25/obama-penny-pritzker/

And guess who bought the servicing portfolio rights of the failed bank?
From the FDIC:

The assets were sold to EMC Mortgage Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Bear Stearns & Co., Inc.. The FDIC recovered $517 million (net) from the residual interest portfolio since Superior’s failure on July 27, 2001, including $471 million in sales proceeds.

The transfer of the servicing rights to EMC Mortgage Corporation is expected to be completed by the end of June.

So the glorious Federal Reserve bails out Bear Stearns, TO THE TUNE OF $30 BILLION and Bear Stearns was involved in buying all the toxic crap from Superior Bank in 2001?

I am sure the guys at Bear packaged and sold that stuff fast. Rinse and repeat. They now have found the new business model that they will duplicate over and over to where we sit today folks

Now, though, their newest September 5-7 poll puts McCain four points points ahead.

That’s ALL possible voters. Remember election turnouts are abysmally low in the US. The second survey is further filtered for people ‘likely to vote’. And in that survey McCain leads 54%-44%.

That’s a much more accurate assessment. 3% possible deviation means it could be only 51%-47% or at the other end of the spectrum a walloping 57%-41%. And I like that latter figure. I’ve already predicted 56% to McCain in the GE. So it sounds about right.

Zelda:

I sincerely hope you are correct!
