Would SOMEONE please tell me why the American people are putting up with the OBVIOUS voter fraud on the democrat side of what will soon be the last three Presidential elections?

Voter fraud is illegal, which by definition means it is against the law. Why can’t the government prosecute those who foster voter fraud?

Well at least your confident.

I have good reason to be.

Obama hasn't looked strong since the truth came out about his affliation with his church.

The Iraqi war has been taken out of the mix.

McCain has united the Party.

Obama is a terrible candidate.

Obama made a terrible choice in picking Biden.

Obama should be 20pts ahead of us right now, instead he is struggling to stay even.

The polls show Independents and Hillary supporters going to McCain.

Obama is counting on the most unreliable voting bloc, the youth vote.

If that doesn't turn out in huge numbers, he will be crushed.

I doubt the older Latino vote is going to vote for him, they didn't in the primaries.

Anyone feel free to dispute my reasoning for being confident.

With regard to winning western states where the polling shows McCain-Palin in a close-knit race with Obama-Biden, we all have to remember the following things:

#1 PREVENT DEM VOTER FRAUD ON INDIAN RESERVATIONS IN WESTERN STATES
The voter fraud that (more than two weeks passed before NM was called for Bush-Cheney) almost cost Bush New Mexico almost all occurred on the Indian reservations (due to an early snow said Gov. Richardson, LOL). Therefore, one of the best things Repubs can do to prevent that from happening in CO, NV, NM, AZ etc. is to make certain that there are Repub polling place observers even on the Indian reservations in these states.

#2 SHORE UP ACTUAL REPUB VOTER INTEREST ON THE PART OF NATIVE AMERICANS BY BETTER ADVERTISING TODD PALIN”S ESKIMO (NATIVE INUIT AMERICAN INDIAN) HERITAGE.THIS APPLIES TO SARAH PALIN BECAUSE HER CHILDREN SHARE THAT HERITAGE AND THEY WILL OCCUPY THE WHITE HOUSE TOO.
This could be easily done in some “at home” interview with the Palin’s in their native Alaska say with Grandma (the one on Todd’s side who was in large part raised by her).
Hey, don’t think for a moment that barack is counting on “whites” voting for him because of his “white mother” from the heartland, Kansas, and Asian-Americans voting for him because of his asian step-father and half-sister, and black Americans voting for him because they think he is black (he’s less than 12.5% black which means he really isn’t of that race), and those Americans of African heritage voting for him because of his Kenyan (tribal member) father.

Repubs need to emphasize Sarah Palin’s family ties and the family heritage of all members of she and Todd’s family to the Native Americans of Alaska, the Eskimo.

Air Americas broadcast to its hundreds of listeners doesn’t worry me!

I agree. Of course Left Wing Pollsters came out today with Obama Leading.

ARG 47 to 46 Obama. I am waiting for Newsweek and Time to come out with bogus polling to stop the Obama bleeding next.

ARGHHHHH!!!

47-46 isn't a lead, it is a statistical tie.

For a Democrat, this early in the campaign it is a sign of impending doom.

Let's not forget that Obama is the one who should have a BIG lead, but instead is struggling.

The MSM polls are going to try to make it look like the race is still close so as not to suppress Democrat turnout.

I’m not picking on you, all here agree that nObama is a poor candidate but so is Mcpain until Sarah entered the fray, look at how this country is turning, those solid blue states will remain blue no matter who’s running and as long as they have a “D” next to them they will win, just like here in Missconsin, the Socialist state.

Pray that we pick up Fl & OH and things will be ok just as 2004, yes it still could be a landslide but when you live here in the Socialist midwest you have doubts at times.

Yes those are good signs another i might add to your list is our local area radio station talk show host said this morning that Mcain/Palin raised 5 million smackeroos at a recent fundraiser in Chicago, she said that is unheard of at this time of an election knowing that this is nObama’s home town, however i don’t where she got the info.

I think McCain has run a brilliant campaign.

He came out of nowhere to win the Primaries and hasn't missed a step since.

Palin has energized his base and united the Party.

The opposite is true of Obama, who since winning early has weakened as more and more is known of him.

I am not saying McCain is going to win every State, but I do believe winning 40 States is not out of the question.

I have no doubt that he is going to win both Ohio and Fl.

Agreed especially on the Latino vote. Seems they will either stay home or NOT vote for Obama.

Heard various reasons - clinton fans, race based dislike, lots of God fearing anti-abortion Catholics.

But definitely, Obama will not carry the Latino vote in any big quantity. I also think this may, MAY put California in play if Latinos come out for McCain.

My only concern is a media attack on McCain during the debates. Obama can go into his baffle ‘em with bullspit orations and win back some votes. I just want to get through the debates even with or slightly ahead of Obama and the we are home free.

Of course NBC has the Muslim up by 1 point. NBC should register as a 527 honestly....

The more poll numbers I see the more I like -

I will now go on record with the following OH, FL, VA, Maine (ME?) and PA will go McCain. Take it to the bank.

WA, MI & WI will go McCain but will be a toss up until Election Day.

CO, IA, NM and OR will go Obama

CA will likely go Obama except for the large block of unpredictable women and latino voters in that state. If things start going bad for Obama in the east, CA Dem may stay home and give McCain the state - same with Hawaii.

So, all in all, McCain we are looking in fairly good shape. Now let’s get through the debates. Home stretch folks, we gotta keep pushing and never ever get complacent. The Dems will always have a sneaky trick up their sleeves and will not hesitate to use it.

As impressive a figure (pardon the pun) as Palin is, I have to say that Cindy McCain has definitely come across in a way that is very flattering to herself and her husband. I had no idea she was such a kind and humble person. She is a huge asset - much more personable than the angry Mrs. Chosen-One.
