Saw the anointed one at noon. He kept blaming the Bush/McCain administration for all the problems. Did I miss something here? Did Cheney resign over the last few years? I rather have a war hero senator and a self made, honest, do it on her own, hunting, fishing, NASCAR , hockey Mom, than some stuttering lawyer who needs a script to prevent him from saying things he shouldn’t.

Every conservative who wouldn’t vote against Osama, but will now vote for Palin, will be offset by an energized liberal. Palin is a powerful symbol That threatens feminist dogma. A pro-life evangelical mother they will want to destroy.

The middle doesn’t vote ideology. They vote on looks, and feelings like trust, and likability. They vote based on what they think the candidate will do for them, or fear of what the candidate might do to them. These are the voters who will win a landslide for McCain. Palin is pulling the female vote on nothing more than anatomy. That is not to say she has no other qualities to offer. I think she is a marvelous choice for multiple reasons. Those reasons don’t matter to the squishy middle. They are voting for “the first woman Vice President.” Sarah {sigh}

Those voters were going to vote for Obama because he was cool, and those votes count as 2 votes. -1 for Obama and 1 for Palin. Most conservatives were already going to hold their noses and vote against Osama. Palin brings far more soccer moms and Miss Teen South Carolina contestants to the table than conservatives.

Governor Palin appeals to this gun-and-religion-clinging right-winger.

Smart fella, that obama. I wonder when he figured that out. I never realized right wing people liked Palin.

Then, I bet he must be liked by left wing people. Yuh think? Imagine, ideology being important.

Hey, I’m getting pretty good at this politics stuff!

Heh, heh.

Obama is so far left that 95% of the country is on his right wing.

Being an arrogant narcissist, Obama appeals to himself.

I see Obama is shaking the boogey man stick. Next he will resort to telling the old folks that John McCain and Sarah Palin want to take away their SS.

This campaign is finally turning into something serious: the ghost of Ronald Reagan versus the ghost of Karl Marx.

Well, since Obama’s primary appeal is to the left wing, this is only fair.

Noone has ever accused Barack Obama of being stupid (perhaps they should start)

“I rather have a war hero senator and a self made, honest, do it on her own, hunting, fishing, NASCAR , hockey Mom, “

Sarah Palin is proof that in some people, BEAUTY IS MORE THAN SKIN DEEP.

Some might say, in her case, it goes to the core.

He did visit his 58th state today - New Pennsylvania. I wonder if they cling to their guns and religion there, too.

I think he’s very intelligent. It’s takes a lot of education, and training to be able to use an extensive vocabulary while saying absolutely nothing important or dealing with reality.

I would say that most things he says, no intelligent man would swallow.

"While Biden is pretty much ignored, as he should be."

Except when he makes comments such as this

"Such a keen intellect!"

I would hope so!

America has a lot invested in this "Magic Negro" from all the fine schools Affirmative Action and "shady characters" set him up to attend..

NOTE: Since NONE of Obama's school transcripts or papers have been released, we can only assume he got passing grades...
