Despite what the MSM and pollsters are indicating, conservatives across the width and breadth of this nation have reason to hope.
That hope is in one Sarah Palin and the tremendous impact she is having amongst every-day Americans of almost all stripes outside of the unabashed liberal elite.
Many of the people Sarah is appealing to will only be registered in one poll, the one in NOvember.
Eagles up!













FYI...lots and lots of folks coming out to see and hear Sarah. They are liking what they are hearing.
Did you see the body language expert on Oreilly the other night? I just knew she was going to trash Palin and praise Stand Up Chuck. She did.
Well..if McCain doesn’t turn this around tonight and hits hard, it will be over for both him and Sarah. Too many Americans (?) believe the economy, gas prices, job losses, housing markets and stock markets are the REPUBLICANS fault, which is why Obama Hussein is ahead 6 points now. It doesn’t look good for McCain.
Gosh, her hand must be sore.
Hey .. be fair ... Obama has his supporters too -— they just checked their minds at the door is all ...

I get to see Sarah on Monday. YeeeeeHaaaaaaaaaa!
On (Cleveland) television, a Democratic operative pointed out that when Obama holds a rally 25-30,000 people show up, whereas when McCain holds one he only draws 10-15,000.
The Republican spokesman replied, ‘That’s because McCain’s supporters are at work.’
I have been hearing that Sen. McCain has been taking the gloves off. It could be a warm up for tonight.
This is the incongruity in current election news. Polls show Obama ahead by 7-8%, and leading in most battleground states. News reports state the electorate is holding McCain and the Republicans at fault for the bailout mess. Yet the crowds both McCain and Palin draw are huge. Not only that but they’re responsive, even raucous in their enthusiasm.
I suspect the media is off the mark again this election, and has no idea of public sentiment. I also suspect the Obama camp is far more worried than we’re being told, aka their over-the-top reactions to the McCain/Palin attacks these past couple days.
It’s not over yet, folks.
There’s a lot of truth to that. A large chunk of Obama’s supporters come from the ranks of college students and community agitators. Not people that actually PRODUCE anything.

Prior to his choosing Palin, conservatives were going to support, and vote, for McCain, beause we were AGAINST Obama and all that he stood for. Now, with Palin on the ticket, for the first time since Reagan, we have have someone on the ticket to be FOR, to support because she believes and holds dear all that which we also believe..our values, our precepts, our ideals, our vision for this great country. It's been a long time coming...

I noticed yesterday while watching Fox that almost to the minute during the time of McCain’s speech, the Dow was on a steady climb. Maybe it was coincidental, maybe not, but it’d be interesting to know whether that happens again, because yesterday he was talking (FORCEFULLY) about the economy.
Wow... This is great!
You're absolutely correct.
Fight.....fight. I would love to see Obama get his butt kicked tonight. It will have to be a knock out blow though. Nothing less. Isn’t this the townhall type debate? I thought McCain was at his best in those. Hope he can cram 3 months of hard hitting truth about Obama into less than 90 minutes tonight.
Obama’s crowds are getting smaller and Biden’s are in the hundreds
Folks, I hold out hope for a McCain victory, but in case it doesn’t come to pass on 4 Nov, we can take comfort in the long view position — There is a great crop of brilliant young conservative rising stars who will lead the movement in future years, starting in 2012. In addition to Sarah, we have LA Gov. Bobby Jindal and VA Rep. Eric Cantor, to name a couple.
Indeed that is the case. Many want to be at the Strongsville Rally on Wednesday, but have turned down tickets as they are working!
I have the day off and got my ticket though! I can’t wait to be there!!!
O’Reilly is becomming unwatchable. He only pretends to be on our side. Last night he defended Obama against the Ayers charges.
We shall see...but I believe there is much reason to hope desite the curtrent polls.
GREAT! Wish I could be at one of these rallies. MAybe they’ll make a stop in Boise sometime...but we are not up for grabs.
Remember, the states lag national trends. We’re seeing upward movement in a few polls now. They’ll tighten up IF McCain/Palin hammer Obama about his past, while coupling the attack with clarity about repairing the economy.
Well said!
I hope the secret service likes her enough to give her their
very best protection...I fear if she makes a huge impact on the polls that some-one will come gunning for her.
I also fear that if the election is lost, they will still come after her as she is too much a threat to the vested interests who want our country destroyed! Palin represents the very best in women as exemplified by Proverbs 31, the book of Esther, the book of Ruth, the story of Deborah from the book of Judges, the story of Abigail(whose wisdom stayed
David’s hand from killing her husband).
She is the picture of imperfection with the strength of God being made perfect in her weaknesses. She threatens to lead many lost sheep amongst our young women and girls back towards the light of Christ(already you see women copying her hair-styles and getting her glasses).
Election won or lost, she has already changed the narrative as to what feminism is towards a positive, creative pro-life, pro-family point of view. Election won or lost, her enemies will seek to crush the Palin idea by trying to dump as much dirt on her as they can, if some-one doesn’t try to off her in the mean time. To paraphrase Revelations; the MSM dragon has opened his mouth to spew a flood of lies and treachery against her, we of the earth must swallow that flood!
To see the brief clips shown on the MSM, it always appears as those she and McCain are talking to a small group of curious onlookers.
I agree.
I hope he and Sarah have been prepping the country for the campaign because it’s fixing to get ugly. If he went in tonight and just out of the blue slammed Obama harshly, he would be portrayed as an angry troll (Chris Matthews, kiss my butt).
Spot on. Agreed 100%.
The Old hippies next door to me are going to the Rally and voting McCain! They came to that conclusion after several email exchanges with them regarding truths, facts, and the horrible way Palin has been treated!
How about Jindal, Pence, or our brave Texan, Jeb Hensarling!
Exactly. You have to look ghard for good coverage...usually coming from individuals who post their pictures.
Has the Old York Times declared Obummer the winner of the debate yet??
Pray for W, McCain and Our Troops
He doesn’t have to sound angry — just be consistent, forceful and factual. There’s a TON of dirt to throw on Obama; Mac only needs to not act pissed off when dropping it on him.
That's what they said about Sarah's last debate. She blew Biden away and McCain is still down in the polls.
Sorry,, Not all Old Hippies vote Obama. :-)
Cantor was trying to make the best of a very bad situation. As for Pence and Hensarling, you betcha (nod to Sarah)!
Have Leno do some Jay Walking in other places and you would probably get much different reults.
OUTSTANDING. I believe there is a WHOLE LOT of that out there going unreported.
The Republican spokesman replied, Thats because McCains supporters are at work.
He should have included "and we don't pay loafers to show up at rallies".
Just posted a link to this in my blog Jeff.
Way to go! That is exactly the spirit we need to have all over this nation. Educating...upbeat. I believe we can and will win this thing. I pray like everything depends on God (it does) but work like it depends on us (and it does too).
Let's add Indiana's Mike Pence, to that list as well!
Thanks. Keep it up! If we all pull together and spread the word...and try and influence others, we will pull this out. For our nation, for the rising genertion, our own kids and grandkids.
