Insiders say that Mr Obama’s apparent calm through an unusually turbulent election season

Have you seen Obama lately? After geting his ass kicked by a 72 year old in the debate, he is anything but calm.

When Imbibin gets shown up by the girl, mysognist Obambi is going to go ballstic.

He had a 13% lead over Hillary and she whooped his ass.

That's the thing: Obama NEVER DID have a 13% lead over Hillary in New Hampshire back in January. It's just that the POLLS claimed he did! This is why polls are NOT to be trusted. Every now and then, the polls will throw a few bones our way. Like they did when McCain's numbers went up after the Republican convention with his selection of Sarah Palin as VP. Then suddenly, McCain supporters' faith in polls is restored. Then they go back to Obama again. I think that the pollsters pull these stunts to keep average Americans from getting suspicious. During the primary, Hillary supporters turned out in droves despite the consistent negative polling. That's why she won the popular vote. Which is why the same clowns who are trying to cheat McCain now cheated Hillary out of the Democrat nomination. But it's a far different dynamic now, because McCain and the Republicans have more than enough ammo and support to completely shut down Obama and the scummy Dems on Election Day.

hmm, I think most people would rather look at Palin than Biden any day, so I guess its going to be Biden staring out at the horizon while the rest of us connect with what Palin is saying – hopefully

You’re not very good at this are you? Any Christian would know. God is first, your family second, your country third, but you knew full well what the poster was saying. Country before Party.

President Clinton disagrees with you. He clearly said when he was in office the Democrats fought against him doing anything. They fought against Bush doing anything in ’03. They fought against McCain and a small group of Republican senators doing anything in ’05. I think he may know a tad more about the situation then you do.

I think they will, McCain has definitely ran a different campaign than I have ever seen. You still, even at the convention saw Hillary signs with McCain bumper stickers on them. I saw them at the last town hall. Republicans have opened their arms to those outside of the party. They’ve met with them about their concerns, etc. McCain gave Hillary her props both in the primary and since. Sarah lifted up Hillary and Geraldine. The way women should lift one another regardless of party. We may not always agree, but there are some things only a woman can understand about the struggles women go through. That’s why it really bothers me that Boxer is doing what she’s doing. I haven’t always agreed with Boxer’s agenda, but I’ve always supported her. Now I’m to the point I feel like I can no longer support her, because even though women have lifted her up, she’s now on board of the hate women train. Her and Pelosi have to go. That is not feminism.

BULL. Deregulation was REAGAN’S BRAINCHILD. Republicans can NEVER hang THAT around Democrat’s necks. Trickle Down economics and Deregulation…BOTH Reagan’s brainchild and BOTH were/are DISASTROUS Economic Policies.

Are you getting those poll numbers from garychapelhill at Riverdaughter’s blog? I saw them there this morning. Just saying, it’d be nice to credit the author–those were great finds.

Wasn’t that Bush’s slogan the first time he won? If you don’t trust the media vote for me. It worked. They’ve given us an even less reason to trust them this time around, they actually did some praising of Bush.

Pollster says election could end in landslide
Jill Terreri • Staff writer • September 25, 2008

What’s this?

One of the country’s top pollsters was in Rochester on Thursday and suggested that the November presidential election will end in an electoral landslide, even though the candidates are running close.

“Essentially the election is at equilibrium,” said John Zogby, president of Zogby International. “This election will stay close until the end.”

Zogby said he thinks the race will turn in the last weekend before Election Day and though the popular vote will be tight, the successful candidate will win in a landslide.
He likened this year’s election to the contest in 1980, when Ronald Reagan defeated President Jimmy Carter.

“This may be and probably is the most important election in our lifetime,” Zogby said. “I don’t say that lightly.”

Despite two books by Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama, Americans still don’t know enough about him. And if they don’t think they know him well enough by the time they vote, they’ll go with the “comfortable old shoe,” Republican Sen. John McCain, Zogby said.

BULLSHIT. The Democrats have been in control of Congress for LESS THAN 2 FREAKIN’ YEARS out of the last 13 YEARS. The Republicans controlled the Senate, House and WH for 6 YEARS before that and controlled the Senate and House for 5 years prior to that! This is the REPUBLICAN’S freakin’ mess. This is what happens when you give unregulated, total control to greedy people with complete POWER.
