I just do not see the excitement from the Democrat base. The desire t vote is very strong with the Republicans though.

We shall see how the debates go

Though I am starting to see more O’Bumbler/BomeHead Signs.

And you can bet your last penny obama will be provided with all the questions in advance so he will have well prepared answers.

‘I just do not see the excitement from the Democrat base.”

Since a goodly percentage of it is zombies, that’s not surprising.

This election will be decided in the first 15 minutes of the first debate.

Unfortunately, all the Media Stories about Obama brilliance, and overwhelming debate win have already been written, as they had to be submitted to Media Matters for approval by 6PM tonite.

“Though I am starting to see more O’Bumbler/Bonehead signs.”

I am struck by the fact that I am NOT seeing Obama signs or bumper stickers in Northern Virginia this time around. Yesterday, I ran errands all around western Fairfax County and eastern Loudoun - the Dulles area. I saw one Obama bumper sticker.

I know many government employees - black and white - who are embarrassed by Obama’s inept performance. Still, they will feel socially ostracized if they voice support for the GOP, or if they criticize Obama. My question is whether they will show up to vote for Obama.

The government union’s big issue is the pay freeze. AFGE is disseminating flyers that don’t mention Obama, but praise Reid and bash Boehner and the Republicans for supporting an extension of the Bush tax cuts. On the theory that increased taxes will get AFGE members the steady raises they are used to from the past. No mention that the Obama took away their raises as a political maneuver because he knows the union will support him regardless of what he does to them. No mention that govt employees did much better financially under Bush than under Obama.
