The McCain campaign is starting to lose it... the narrative is turning against them... they need to shake things up...

Excellent article. And for some context, how many people imagined the GOP would be in this position 3 or 4 months ago? It’s been a remarkable few months.
“Here’s another possible rule. When voters see that tax increases aren’t producing a better economy, they don’t move toward a Democratic nominee who is proposing higher taxes, even though he says they’ll hit only the rich. In Michigan, the Democrats (with a few turncoat Republicans) raised taxes in 2007; in Ohio, the Republicans (with some Democratic support) raised taxes before 2006. Those tax increases haven’t helped those states’ economies, not so as you’d notice, though they’ve helped members of public employees unions.”
I hope this “rule” turns out to be true. Obama’s lead in NY NJ are small ... . We don’t need to win those states, but I doubt Obama will win the election if he ends up +5 in NJ.
Most people's taxes went down under Bush. They are told constantly that Bush's tax cuts only benefited the rich, and they know they're not rich. So, right there they know that the Rat is lying, and they know their taxes will go up if the Rat is elected. It's really not hard to figure out.
“Those tax increases haven’t helped those states’ economies, not so as you’d notice, though they’ve helped members of public employees unions.”
You got that right. The bureaucrat socialist pigs in Michigan are living high. Stayed recently at a motel in Grayling. MI, and Granholm’s state thieves were attending a pork conference. The lot was filled with new or nearly new pick-ups, SUVs and expensive autos.
And the liberals and RINOs in this hellhole state want higher taxes.
Then we hear the idiot voters complain there’s no jobs.
It’s going to come down to CO and VA.
