Ok, so expand on that premise. Say Obama DOES get the nomination and a riot in Colorado is avoided this August.

We had near riot situations in 2000 and 2004 as Democrat/Anarchist/Communist elements raged against the tallied results.

If McCain wins over Obama, there is just as likely to be a riot as there is in Colorado. The puppet masters are hoping for it. End game is the destruction of our Constitutional form of government. A revolution that ushers in Socialism. Have people never paid attention to the pinko rhetoric of the 1960s that IS the mainstream movers and shakers of today’s DNC?

Thank the Clintons for forever ending our nation’s legacy of a peaceful transition of power.

something hopeful might happen at the Republicrat Convention

And what, pray tell, might that be?

10 out of 10 IS more than 4 out of 10. They just aren’t saying how many more than 4 out of 10...

"No question about it. Hillary’s people won’t vote for Obama and Obama’s people will riot."

Yep. Obama's sure hoping for it - calling for it, really - and no doubt he has his "people" working feverishly on it.

Stats last night, dude - this is awesome:

23% of Hillary’s voters go to McCain if she loses
16% stay home

16% of Barry’s got to McCain if he loses
13% stay home

This was on the crawl on FNC last night.

"But wait just yesterday I was reading articles about how all of the republicans in the state, many of them life long republicans, were registering as dems becasue they have had it with the GOP."

PENNSYLVANIA voters?? The authors aren't listening to Rush.

From last week’s DUmmie FUnnies - calling him “Barry” is racist,

because “Barry” is a term of disrespect, and he’s #000000.

I call him Barry out of disrespect, yes, but because he’s a “typical liberal person”, not because he’s #000000.

(#000000 MUST be racist in and of itself because it demeans the color with such a low number)

Luck? I don’t know...he’s just the only Republican candidate that we could have possibly put up this year. If there was a more conservative candidate, the Dems would use that to unite the party. The fact that McCain is a viable alternative to the moderate Dems who don’t like either of those two ultra liberal Dems is the only possible way we could win this year. That’s a fact. If the Dems had put up ONE moderate attractive candidate, they would have won in epic proportions.

It they lose come November, and right now this is what I personally think is going to happen, I wouldn’t want to be in the DNC offices on election night. There will be many a career ruined.

and I used to think that LOOONG campaigns were a very bad thing and were only in place to prop up the MSM with advertising bucks. But this one has really has a constructive purpose.

Jeez....pretty soon it will be racist to LOOK at a black person. That’s how the stars act....I read that Mariah Carey or MAdonna FORBIDS anyone to look directly at them. I’m getting pretty fed up with this race card BS.

This reminds me of the "sexual harassment standards" on some campus a while back.

It was considered sexual harassment to make eye contact, or to refuse to make eye contact with a female.

I take these statistics with a grain of salt. Remember not too long ago how conservative Republicans whined how they’d stay home if McCain was nominated?

The fact is that the Dems will pull together when their choice is made. At least McCain will be a viable alternative to Hillary supporters. Just like when it comes to pulling that lever in November...if it’s between McCain and either of those two...most Conservatives will vote for McCain..because they love this Country.

?? I thought he was moving more toward the middle in order to keep the conservatives who plan on choosing him over Obama and Clinton from staying home?

McCain was elected fairly and squarely..there will be no party revolution. The talk of Dem revolution is if the nomination is given to Hillary although Obama is ahead.

There will be no Republican revolution...that ship has sailed...at least for now.

Some people add their nicname in place of their middle name.

Would it be OK to refer to him as Barak “Barry” ?

I think it has a nice ring.

McCain is a moderate, but he is still better BY FAR than what we would get with Hildabeast or Hussein. I don’t buy for a moment the notion that we need to suffer 4 or 8 years of those two to get a true conservative in the White House.

There's no comparison. McCain isn't the ideal candidate but he's miles ahead of the other choices. I mean what've we got here? Like the one commentator said, you've got a candidate who is a b*tch and a lawyer married to a lawyer, or a candidate who is a lawyer married to a b*tch who is a lawyer. Some choice there, huh.
