The argument from the Obamarobots that he’s losing in polls because Americans are racist has to stop.
They hail Robert “I’m an idiot from inbred stock” Byrd as one of the heroes of the party for his opposition to the war, easily glossing over his racist KKK past.
How can the party that has a former KKK member as a sitting senator (and a former majority leader and judiciary committee chairman, at that) fling accusations of racism at Republicans without appearing to be extremely hypocritical? Well I guess the media helps with that. Drink up, latte liberals, because your boy is headed to defeat.
LOL
Absolutely true in 92 and there is no incumbent President running as there was in 96. I would love to see the Democrats go down in flames They are so cocky this time it would kill them.
"...For the advocates of this perverse militant egalitarianism, reasoned argument is replaced by a conditioned reflex as Obama's legions of lickspittle automatons mindlessly parrot as "evidence" whatever Obama himself has written in any one of his own self-serving books. You see this has never been about the free interchange of ideas or even the ascertainment of truth, this is all about entitlement and nothing not even freedom or liberty is going to get in the way...."
Yep there is no Ross Perot and I don’t think anyone would fall for it a second time. The biggest mistake is they mis-define why they should be winning. They don’t define why they should be winning because their policies are so good. They define it in terms of “change”, “hope”, “first black man who could be President”, “image”, “speeches” but they don’t define it in terms of their substance.
Barrack Obama is hugely in support of Gay activism but you’ll never get him to answer that question straight, the same thing with abortion, the same thing with taxes. That reluctance to do as McCain has and just answer the questions directly always hurts liberals and it will hurt Obama even worse than most because the veil is coming off. He had a huge battle with Hillary and his venerabilities are identified and new ones are appearing daily. The more he talks the worse they become. McCain made a flub about Houses and such but that doesn’t resonate like the condescension that we should learn Spanish not the immigrates or the simpleton suggestion that pumping up your tires will offset increasing energy needs.
Obama is in a pickle. He has a convention that is designed to be train wreck. It may not happen but I wouldn’t bet on it. He is angry and when liberals get angry they get ugly and even more stupid than their policies.
Can you imagine the gnashing of teeth the day after the election if the Demoncrats lose? The atmosphere of gloom and depression will be so thick you you will need to turn on your windshield wipers to drive down the street.
It would be great. What would be better is if they lost the House and Senate too, but that is a long...long shot.
“They are so cocky..”
No truer statement was ever made.
Saving The Planet Pelosi, This War Is Lost Reid and their ilk need a reality check.
And perhaps Barry could run for Chancellor of Germany.
Bite your tongue.
When the libs say that, the immediate reaction is for people to recoil and think "I'M not a racist!" Then, after a minute of thought, one realizes this is a desperation tactic, and one thinks "Do I want THAT mentality in charge of this country?"
I think Obama's slide in the polls is due in LARGE part to this "You'd better like him or you're a racist" crap backfiring.

“Michelle Obama is headed to Hollywood to court gay and lesbian support. Tom Ford is among the expected co-hosts of a Sept. 3 benefit at the home of CAA agent Bryan Lourd. The same night, she’ll head over to Samuel L. Jackson’s place for another fund-raiser, reports WilshireandWashington.com.”
Barone is the best. Very astute observation and helps explain why Obambi has been frantically trying to demonstrate he is a "man of faith".
It's starting to look like the American people aren't going to fall for it though.
I agree with that projection, and take no glee from it because it indicates a deep infection.

G.K. Cheston make an observation about literature that I think applies to politics as well. He said that all over the world the old, popular literature is the same. It consists of very dignified sorrow and very undignified fun. Its sad tales are of broken hearts, and its happy tales are of broken heads.
In the case of the crazy lefties, it is a mixture of the two kinds of tales. The lefty has a broken head and is always laughable. But because he has a broken head and can't think straight, he causes much damage to those around him. That damage he causes is where the sorrow comes in.
Yes, that is a long shot. But I think the gains of Democrats in Congress is going to be much less than most predicted even a month ago. Republicans have a powerful message with off-shore drilling. They need to repeat this loud and often.
Pelosi has to be making enemies with her high handed ways and opposition to drilling with gas prices so high. The Democrats don’t look good.
Yes, I agree that Pelosi has alienated a lot of people. I don't want to count the chickens before they are hatched, but I think Republicans will do better than expected. Drill, drill, drill!
I don’t understand your (maybe Chesterton’s) point. My lack of glee isn’t because a small fraction of the population is nuts and/or irrational, it’s because a substantial fraction (maybe a majority) advocates more government by self-anointed superiors than is healthy for a society of free people.
“...McCain made a flub about Houses...”
I don’t think so. A key to understanding McCain is that he was a boxer as a young man and a life-long devotee of the sport. The commentary about not knowing how many houses he owned was a “rope-a-dope” feint to lure Obama into a discussion about real estate, a place the “O-man” should’ve judiciously avoided. But instead, Obama took the bait and will be subjected to vicious body blows over his “real estate” dealings with convicted Chicago crook Tony Rezko. McCain is a genuinely tough guy and the rib cracking will commence shortly..”my friend.”
