I simply cannot imagine some white haired granny who thinks lovingly of the days of FDR shuffling into the voting booth and voting for a guy named Barack Obama.

I am not, by the way, saying his name or his race SHOULD be a reason not to vote for him. I'm simply saying that I can't see old time Democrats marking Obama on their ballots.

It’s not his name, nor his color, it’s the lack of love of country shared by him and his wife.

I agree. The older dems also will be immune to the emotion of thinking how cool it would be to vote for a (half) black man to be POTUS.

But I've said before, if we don't vote for him because of his name, because of his race, because he's a stone cold marxist, or because he's going to tax us into oblivion, the only reason the Obamamedia will print about is because he's black.

Knowing that lets me say without the slightest bit of regret that I could not freakin care less if people don't vote for him because he's black, as long as they don't vote for him.

Unfortunately, the white-haired grannies who remember FDR aren’t around in big numbers.

The “new” grannies love getting their government checks and their free “pills.” The ARP has turned many of them into “Selfish Seniors.”

The Democrats are buying the votes of our young people with soothing messages of “social justice” and “protecting the environment.” They going after seniors with “the right to healthcare.”

I know of two very and I mean very long time loyal Democrats who have told me they will not vote for "Da Rack o Bam ma'am" under any circumstances.

One is a widowed single mom with a 6 year old boy and the other is a 70 something grandfatherly friend of my family.

When they both announced they were voting for McCain I nearly fell off my chair....that's how shocked I was.

In all the years I've known these two they have never...ever voted Republican.
