This bumbling a@@-clown and his henchmen are the most arrogant bunch of sons-of-b!tches walking the planet. I can’t wait until the glassy-eyed media, somewhere in the early hours of Wednesday morning, November 5th, are forced to announce that John McCain is President Elect.

Has he done his first State of the Union address yet?

No. He's been too busy walking on water. Correction: he's been too busy passing water.

"Its all part of the Psycho-logic mind games played by the Obama media and the Left. Its the “ Don’ fight it / Air of Inevitability "

Let's see now.....there was another candidate who used that "Air of Inevitability" gambit......what ever happened to her, anyway...

This is all part of a psychological game with the public. Act as though you have already been elected (transition tam, world tour, etc.) and create a forgone conclusion (for some) in November. I have no idea how productive a strategy like this might be. I suppose that some shallow thinkers might fall for such a ploy.

Remember when the liberals were screaming their heads off in 2000 because Bush directed his campaign to work on presidential transition while Al Gore was in court? He was lambasted as being presumptuous.

No political figure has scared me in my lifetime more than Barrack Obama.

A cult-of-personality is extremely dangerous.

Should be restated for accuracy:

Obama and his canny operatives have mounted the biggest propaganda campaign in the history of mankind.....including those of Goebbels and Lucifer himself.

His WHOLE campaign is based on propaganda, sleight-of-hand and thin air with the conduit for this flim-flam being the media.

He and Algore are the biggest con men in the history of dirt.

Yet, in the face of this dangerous scenario, too many conservatives occupy their time fiddling with continual intramural fights about McCain and/or Romney while the future of our freedom (and victory) burns. This (divide and conquer) result is exactly one of the many goals of experienced propagandists and is part of the Method of Operation they establish and foster as agents provocateur.

If you have noticed, there's an aggressive, attack-mode tag team of anti-Romney, anti-Mormon agents provocateur operating on every related post on FR as we speak. You defy them at your peril. They're not in the Obama camp, but the net results are a distinction without a difference.

If you notice, like it or not, hide your head in the sand or not, the Obama machine is running very smoothly despite a few gaffes here and there. WHILE CONSERVATIVES SQUABBLE INTERMINABLY AMONGST THEMSELVES AND PICK NIT AND GNATS ABOUT THE GOP TICKET-PRESUMPTIVE, OBAMA AND HIS OPERATIVES ARE PICKING A TRANSITION TEAM. Please let this last sentence sink in.

I would lay book that plans are already in place for Obama's world-stage victory lap to take place through the magnificent columns of the Arch de Triumph in Paris. Obamma's propagandists have the audacity of thinking smart, thinking big....and thinking ahead.

Sounds like the first chapter from The Turner Diaries.

You can read it online if you wish. Google it....

I’m hoping that McCain is keeping his powder dry and waiting to “unleash” a pitbull VP candidate to totally domininate the news cycles and deliver a blistering attack on NoBama for a full week. McCain needs a “Dick Cheney” type VP who is not afraid of the liberal media.

McCain’s words will make sense (for the most part) but will put people to sleep before they even hear them”

To which litehaus replied:
“Hey !Hussein, when didja start wearing that “Hearing Aid?”

You better stop chuckling.

I predict that the Obama campaign will put a number of “preconditions” on any post-convention debates, preconditions unlike those ever before seen or used in a debate. One of them _might be_ the use of an ear prompter.

Obama’s campaign will say to McCain’s, “your guy can wear one, too”.
McCain’s camp will respond, “No, not acceptable in a formal debate.”
Obama’s camp will reply, “Fine, then, we decline to debate based upon your refusal to negotiate in good faith.”

.... and the sycophant media will back Obama up on it.

He’s the presumptive president - why the need for pointless “debates”, anyway? They’ll only obfuscate his message of hope to the American people, eh?

Well, I guess we could save tons of money just skipping the actual voting part of this election.

The fix is in?

Actually - the fix was liberals manipulating McCain into being the Republican candidate.
