The American people have apparently forgotten 9/11 and will have to suffer another attack before they wake up from their sleep. Tragic and treasonous what Liberal and RINO politicians have done to America.

If that one on the Mall moved about a mile east it would come under the heading "Irony."

Newt is the same idiot that blamed Bush on the Katrina response. Not attack Obama? That is what the brilliant minds behind McCain are already doing. What stupid advise. You don't win by playing nice - you promote conservatism and point out what a rabid Marxist you are running against.

Thoughts on McCain v Obama ...

http://marcambinder.theatlantic.com/archives/2008/06/nevada_poll_mccain_42_obama_44.php

McCain is leading Obama 44-42, despite this being a ‘nomination victory bump’ time for Obama. Bumps over it seems.

The “undecided” count is huge because there are moderate Democrats and conservative independents puzzling over the dilemma: Obama is a leftist, the most liberal senator in the US Senate, with almost no accomplishments nor experience that would justify his becoming President. McCain is a moderate who may be more appealing to centrist Democrats than a typical Republican, and he’s annoyed conservatives enough with his various bipartisan bills that many of them are on the fence. Vote for the RINO ‘maverick’ to stop the leftist Obama or go 3rd party as a statement against “McAmnesty” McCain?

Back in 1988 at this phase in the cycle, Dukakis was up 17 points over GHWBush. Likewise Carter was up huge in 1976 in the summer (30 points?). Obama’s campaign is most like Carter’s and the dynamic is otherwise a bit like 1988. Yet Obama, despite huge ‘generic’ ballot favorables for Dems, doesnt have their big leads. Even more troubling is how other polls are so good for Democrats - it is proving that Obama’s lack of experience, his extremist pastor and other associates, are weighing on him. He’s a weak candidate, quite possibly the weakest candidate the Democrats put forward in decades.

This looks like a jump-ball race, but the dynamics of those undecideds are lining up where they will fall on McCain’s side once voters sort through who really is a better candidate for them. Unless there is a 10% 3rd party vote, those conservatives will be going heavily for McCain.

Those “undecided” conservatives forced to choose between a moderate and leftist will not be giving many votes to Obama, that’s for sure. The number of bamboozled Republicans and conservative independents who ‘like’ Obama but are unaware of his capital gains tax hike, his extremist pro-abortion position, his proposed “UN global tax’ or his troubling history of associating with leftist radicals (http://no-bama.blogspot.com) will dwindle.

The coup de grace will ironically be Iraq, when people wake up an realize that the troops will not come home any sooner with Obama. McCain’s call to bring the troops home with honor not dishonor will resonate. Obama’s ‘change’ ‘hope’ and “McSame” attacks are shallow and wear thin. All style and no substance can only get you so far.

Result: McCain will win huge. Congrats Dems, this was your race to lose and you just may well do that!

“1. Presidential “Temperament and Composer”.”
off teleprompter, Obama is uninformed and shallow.
Obama has shown himslef to have very poor judgement, given the number of associates he has thrown under the bus, including Mr Johnson, and Trinity Church.

“2. Little Washington “insider Versus outsider” experience.”
Obama has no experience outside of politics. He’s devoted his life to leftwing community activism and politics. He doesnt have that many accomplishments to show for it except his ability to get elected in Illinois. McCain at least has executive leadership experience, when he led the largest Navy squadron. And McCain’s 5 years as a POW was pretty far removed from Washington DC.

3. “Vision and mission” for our nation future rather than past.”
Obama’s vision as expressed in his campaign speeches is vague plagiarized (from Deval Patrick campaign) platitudes. His real agenda seem fairly leftist, given his voting record and his radical associations and friends (Ayers, Wright, etc.), and his used of leftwing activist slogans and themes to motivate people.
McCain’s vision at least is more concrete as expressed in his bipartisan bills, his engagement on foreign affairs, and his legislative record. it’s a center-right vision, anti-pork, against excessive spending, against special interest favoritism, and for a strong US foreign policy.
McCain is a modern day Teddy Roosevelt.

“4. American policies, “ first U.S.A Centric” than any other country [ ies ] centric.”
He is running for US President, not UN Secty general. Obama has already misstated/misunderstood history (JFK era) to justify his naive and dangerous suggestion to meet our enemies without preconditions. Obama is wrong on foreign policy in many ways. McCain will keep America safer. There is nothing wrong with that.

Another Teddy Roosevelt beats another Jimmy Carter hands down.
