those Luntz groups are just plain stupid

he is a fool but those people he has on are supposed to be undecided and yet they say things like McCain needs to stop being negative, Obama is upbeat has a positive message

those groups are full of Dem voters trying to persuade people watching and Luntz falls for it instead of pointing issues pout like so are you going to be prepared to pay higher tax, when has McCain gone negative , pointing facts out is not negative at all

time for luntz group to be freeped

So, God Forbid, Obama win. During the inauguration, will they mention his full name?

I would bet they do not.

I noticed that and he also knew Joe the plumber wasn’t going to vote for him with that answer
obama’s mask slipped off when he is asked questions without due notice

would not be surprised if obama has the questions for tonight too and they’ll be all about the economy, not how he would sit with a terrorist or Iran’s leader, or about spreading the wealth or how he will pay for all his welfare social programmes

54 year old white idiot. Reagan was so far outside of government running anything private, much less Wall Street and bankers and car companies.

It's simple deduction from a liberal world view. Government control is the answer and can make things right. Things were good in the 80s, therefore government must have been in charge of everything. Reagan must have taken over wall street, banks, and car companies lol.

have no problem at all if they want to riot so long as they smash up their own areas and they are not given money to rebuild.

They want to destroy their neighborhoods so be it

McCain then should come on and announce we are not a third world country and this only happens with people who act like they are in a third world country

And I’m willing to bet he couldn’t name a single driver in NASCAR, even with a gun pointed at his head.

No, we don't-but I understand what you mean.


Trouble is, Obumble makes Carter look like George Washington.

Reminds me of the time a reporter asked a lady on the street what she knew about Obama’s record and policies. She said she really didn’t know much about it. The reporter asked why she was voting for him, she said, “he gives me hope”. You can’t reason with these people.

"He won't do anything better than McCain" but they're STILL voting for Obama...the country has finally reached the tipping point after fifty years of anti-conservative/Republican propaganda by the left -our worthless piece of scum Senator Lautenberg is running for reelection and in the middle of one his ads drops a little left-wing hate "Senator Lautenberg stopped Republican attempts to cut health care for New Jersey children", then he quickly moves on to his next supposed accomplishment - there have never been any Republican attempts to cut health care for New Jersey or any other children of course, butyears and years of this sort of hit and run attack, with no comeback or counter attacks by the 'pubs, has finally resulted in a level of anti-conservsative bigotry that is going to be extremely difficult to counter, even with facts......

Was is Churchill who said?:

“If you want to lose your faith in the Democratic system, just have a 5 minute conversation with the average voter”.

This election demonstrates the result of decades of dummied down education in America. If any of these voters in any way understood the abject failure of Communism, worldwide, there would be minimal support for Mr. ‘Change’.

I’ll bet that they will. Because by then it will be too late for the people to do anything about it. They’ll be in your face about it with no apologies. It’s going to be ugly, real ugly.

Who knows what he will do except be superior. LOL

I agree with you and he will promise everything and anything just to get elected. If that doesn't work; he will threaten.

I would like to know why anyone thinks that in 2 or 4 years any Republican will be able to run an effective campaign against any dimrat. One of the things the new government will do is enact even more “campaign finance reform” along wth the “fairness doctrine” and ensure that virtually the only media organs that can reach the broad electorate is the leftist propaganda media. The basics have already been put in place (thanks is no small measure to John McCain) and all that is needed is some tweaking. And with the power to pack the courts with their allies there is no one who will overturn anything they try.

An Obama presidency coupled with large majorities in the congress will be the effective end of the American experiment.

By the time my kids were 5 years old, they knew for certain that there was no such thing as a “free lunch”.

I’m starting to understand how it was possible for Hitler to rise to power. Now I’m starting to understand. “None is so blind as he who refuses to see.”

McCain doesn’t have to sway a lot of these idiots, just 2-3% of them.

Your point is well taken but the left’s intent is to profer the lie. This then either takes Republicans off message to counter the lie or to ignore the lie thereby giving it tacit credibility. Since the left controls the media and the media gleefully carries their water, the lie preempts and supercedes any and all Republican attempts to get out their positions. We spend all of our time and resources countering their lies and virtually no time actually presenting our issues and why they are better for the country. We will have to find a better way to get to the general public, who still relies on the MSM, if we are to have any hope of re-educating the voters to understand just what is at stake for the country.

I wonder what these people will be saying when they see a mushroom cloud rising from an American city. I guess those “gd Republicans” won’t seem so bad then. But there’ll be a few hundred thousand dead people who won’t live to see that day.
