As Obama Loses Momentum His Positions Change Faster
The Virginian ^ | 8/2/2008 | Moneyrunner

Obama’s in trouble.

His poll numbers show him losing popularity. Once people got to know him, they began to dislike him. He could no remain a blank slate on which people could project their hopes for the duration of the campaign. When his past began to define him and his politics his “coolness” has morphed into a negative. His self assurance has become obnoxious brashness.

McCain’s campaign, no longer immobilized by its desire to be “Mr. Nice Guy” has taken “The Messiah" and have begun to turn his own hype and his adoring acolytes against him. The one thing a pop culture icon cannot stand is ridicule, and that’s what he’s getting.

So he needs to turn the national discussion away from the cool image of a God leading his adoring people into a discussion of issues. And that, unfortunately for Obama is his second weakness. His issues are a cobbled together mess of positions that appealed to the left wing fringe of the Liberal Democrat Party. For the general election, he has to hustle back to the center, but Obama’s challenge is to reconcile the irreconcilable.

So he’s in favor of more drilling and at the same time he’s opposed to it because more oil is not the solution to our problem. That’s the sort of material that's tailor made for John McCain’s next video ad.

McCain has done a great job. The Moses add is really funny and uses Obama’s own speeches. I think the Democrats are starting to have buyer remorse. Obama sure pulled the rug out from under the democratic house and senate

McCain stiffed the Bug Eyed Dana Bash aka Mrs John King when she started to question him about the Spears Ad.
McCain showed discipline and an ability to give the MSM a gentle finger.
May this trend continue-it’s a winner.
They’ve got EuroBoy on the ropes.

Obama’s changed tunes. It was “I think I can, I think I can” (from the children’s book) to “Oh Sh*t, what do I say now”.

Maybe the American voters are waking up and beginning to realize that obamawama really is just an empty suit with a whole lot of arrogance and nothing more.

Obama has big ears and a big mouth, and he planned to take over dumb America without a shot.

His positions are changing but what about his campaign contributions....... Hmmmm do you smell a fire starting to burn?

Look at this Federal Election Commission link:

Ouch Federal Election Campaign site proves that info is true

Ouch That is going to sting the Obama campaign that he took money from Gaza and not Georgia as reported. I am not sure how something like this happens. This is probably why the campaign wanted to take only donated money vs federal funds.
