Make it about GUNS and the right to keep them and we can win. I am afraid that Chuck the Nob Yob is too old to be able to put this together so we need to do it. Anyone know TED?
Let go freepers
They need to employ the same surge strategy McCain likes to talk about that worked so well in Iraq. Make a nice big sweep through ALL the battleground/toss-up states—Palin then McCain (or vice-versa), take over a hostile community, establish some good relations, and work at spreading your message (with other high-level party folks—Guiliani, Romney, heck throw Congressman Pence in there).
McCain says how he is so doggedly determined to fight on in Iraq—his own campaign suggests symbolically that he would do otherwise.
Funny you should mention VA. Obama will be in the Hampton Roads area today, (again). Neither McCain or Palin has bothered to show up. This is the Obama /Biden's teams fifth visit in this area of the state. Notice I said area. Not the state as a whole , just in this area.
You can't just show up in Northern VA/ DC area and expect to win the state.
Every Friday, George Allen , ( former VA Governor and Senator), calls in to a local sports radio show and chats politics and sports with the host.
Allen says he gives the McCain camp hints that they should show up in Hampton Roads, yet it falls on deaf ears.
Virginia Beach is the largest city in the state, why bother to show up? /s
0bama is already out of seven states:Alaska, Georgia, Montana, North Carolina, North Dakota, Florida and Virginia. They are considered key battlegrounds this year.
You could go downtown Detroit, shop, have dinner and go to a baseball game without worrying about becoming a victim. Today Detroit is a jungle.
Perhaps Michigan has fallen into liberal disrepute due to the expansion of the various major campuses like U of M, or on the enemy of polite civilization which would be the MSM, like the Detroit 'Free' Press, et al.
At any rate the populace seems to have taken the bait, hook line and sinker.
The senators are fatuous socialist bastards, the governor is a complete idiot and most of the so-called 'conservative' representatives have ACU records of under 50%. The Democrats are in the basement.
The economy has tanked to the level where it can never recover because the main industry is socialist academia.
Good post. I think she can connect with any American voter, and he will definitely connect with men.
Not the New Castrati men, which liberal democrat males are, but real men.
Ever consider that it is Obama/Biden who are targeting the wrong area in VA?
I'll go you one further... it's a complete waste of time for a Republican to even show up in NoVA. Heck, even a RINO like Tom Davis's wife couldn't get re-elected and I wonder if Tom Davis ran again if he could get re-elected. NoVA has fallen and if the GOP doesn't firm up the base down south VA will be a solid blue state for decades to come. We've already lost the U.S. Senate, State Senate, Governorship, and I suspect the VA House will be falling soon as well.
In this case Obama is dead-on. This is where races are won and lost in VA. Judging from how McCain is running his campaign I think his strategists much have tin heads or are tying to lose. Very odd since the National McCain HQ is in VA. You'd think they'd know this state better.
Grrr... there is SO MUCH MORE to Michigan than stupid Detroit and its 'burbs! You're saying those are the only votes that count. This is severely tickin' me off! There are actually more of us "outstaters" than Detroiters, even with their crooked voter rolls. If this thinking keeps up, we may all grab our bibles and our guns and head downstate!
You are exactly right. This election has to be about Obama—his inexperience, his radical associations, and his lack of achievement. I find it remarkable that the Dems rail about Palin’s lack of inexperience and that she is just a heartbeat away from the Presidency, but the McCain camp fails to use that criticism against Obama, including citing the words of his running mate Joe Biden who attacked Obama on that score and said the Presidency is not the place for on the job training.
Do you live in VA?
One word: Sarah. That's enough.
Oh, ok, more: They've loosened up the leash on Sarah. Those are both good things!
Obama has been writing off states as well. The difference is that the MSM pounces on the McCain campaign when it happens but remain silent when the Obama camp does it.
No.
You must be joking. Obama is heavily engaged in VA, NC, and FL.
There are a lot more of us here in the ‘burbs than you think,don’t count us out. And for a man with a suspended campaign in this state,I’ve seen more of his ads on local TV in the last 24 hours than in the previous week. Methinks I smell a rope a dope here,and you cannot find a bigger dope than Barry!
There are actually quite a few of us Conservatives here in Michigan - we’re just outnumbered by Detroit, Ann Arbor, Royal Oak, Union (Auto Industry) and all the other moonbat enclaves.
That, and the number of dead people and Disney characters thaat vote in every election.
