Are you in Afghanistan?
Kinda like what we see in B.H.O.
“It was almost that he was scared to be around those that provide the freedom for him and our great country.”
Affirmative.
This was from an email I received.
Thank you for the post, I hope Fox News and Drudge pick this up. Also, a big thank you for your bravery and unselfish service to your country, God Bless you.
I’m starting to believe that the poll numbers Obama is receiving now are skewed by the Doug Wilder syndrome.
And my in-laws (FDR democrats) will blindly vote for this turkey because they believe it’s a vote against GWB. Makes my head nearly explode.
VA:
Can you verify the email sender and would you stake your reputation in them? This is serious if true but if it is a lie it will help Oh-Bama.
In the past decade, poll exit interviews consistently show a 5-8% higher “vote” for black candidates than the actual vote turns out to be. I predict this year’s discrepancy will be 15 - 18%.
As a young man I was very familiar with your namesake.
I’m not sure I buy into the “Wilder Effect” as represented by the MSM, which is that White people are reluctant to admit they don’t support a Black candidate to a pollster.
To say: “Since we don’t know why the polls are off it must be racisim.” is way too convenient a way to slander a large group of people as rednecked racists. It satisfies too many elitist preconceptions to be true.
Fear not — the FDR Democrats in my NY family are beginning to loathe the man for all his grandstanding, as are their FDR Democrat friends.
It is what it is. We report, you decide.
See # 5.
This seems consistent with what Obama has been doing all along during this campaign- saying one thing and then doing another.
But that’s what this election is seemingly all about.
The real impact of the “Wilder Effect” is that dumb white people will vote for Obama and brag about it to establish themselves as pure white person. Damn the country but I am a chic white person.
Thanks for the info, sorry about that. I actually forwarded the link to this post to the McCain campaign, I hope they read it.
hillary told him to watch out for the sniper fire, LOL
