Not those of us who aren’t voting for a socialist pig.

That's exactly it. If people are so incredibly stupid they think you can throw this country into the hands of these radicals and somehow we'll be ok because "we're America" then we probably deserve the beating we're about to collectively take. Too bad we all have to suffer it.

I have several co-workers, usually fine people, who have bought into the Obamessiah, and they can't even articulate why it is, it's certainly not cerebral. Obama may not be the big A/C, but dang if he isn't showing us just how easy it'll be for the big A/C to do his work in this day and age.

Man,my family has given all the spare time, spare money, and person-to-person support we have for the cause, and McCain will win our state in a cakewalk, but we feel like it won't be nearly enough, and that's certainly frustrating. If we lose, I guess we'll just try to ride it out, and keep our powder dry.

I expect that fact to be known about a week before this election. At that point Hillary is put in to run. She will slide into victory untouched.

How many times has this site been hacked?
It’s not only campaigns but FReepathons.

I put trust into JR to keep all of us safe from spying eyes but there is only so much any CIS person can do.

FReepers are going to be targets too.

Over at the DUmmies board, they look at this same story, and figure that conservatives will go berserk. I guess they've never seen what happens when a Detroit team wins a major sporting event.

Four years of Obama/Pelosi/Biden/Ried would probably fix that.

If they're permitted to steal their way to absolute power in 2008, we'll never have another free and fair election again. We will be a one-party socialist system, then a communist dictatorship. And many of us will be killed.

I hate having these thoughts, but I can't shake this horrible feeling the hell is at our doorstep. We have to fight for the election like we're fighting for our lives.

Some LEOs predict riots if BHO loses and riots if BHO wins.

I think they’re right.

Apparently that’s what big city police chiefs are worried about.

The funny irony of riots is that they typically take place in Democrat parasite nests ("cities") where Democrats riot among themselves as an excuse to loot the local storefronts. With Democrats, it's always about "free stuff". And being out here in the idyllic countryside, I couldn't care less. Burn, baby, burn.

The riots are only an excuse to go rob your nearest burning Wal-Mart. I’ve seen it before. The Rodney King riots were a prime example. People were stealing so much crap that the tires were blowing out on their cars when they made a run for it. It was not about justice for anybody as the media
would have you believe but about plain and simple STEALING!

Something is bothering me is the Odinga-Obama connection. Could all this talk about riots setting us up for a shared presidency as in Kenya? If there are riots I hope the National guard is called out asap and they come down hard on the rioters. Oh what a time we live in.

Oddly enough, in my affluent part of a very Dem and urban county yesterday, the local police were drilling and there was a parking lot full of tactical vehicles behind the station this morning.

Looks like, once again, our area will have to provide the heavy lifting for the remainder who only want our tax revenue and provide no representation or services.

I’m thinking that the authorities are anticipating riots whether Obama wins or not. I mean celebratory riots like we have seen in some cities after a sports team wins a title, if Obama wins, people running through the streets, burning luxury cars and things like that.

We are doing an ad on the violence of Obama supporters. There is a tight deadline.

If anyone can provide quick links to VIDEO of anything showing violence or intimidation, or news video reporting on such incidents, please private reply to me with the links.

“The riots are only an excuse to go rob your nearest burning Wal-Mart. I've seen it before. The Rodney King riots were a prime example...”

I lived through those riots in a city bordering the hot spots during the rioting. It was surreal. My roommate and I lived on the 3rd story of a condominium complex that looked down on our local strip mall. Two men from our neighborhood took to the roof of an auto parts store with rifles and one of our neighbors patrolled the alley behind our complex with his gun. Throughout the night their were a few bands of thugs that drove up to that strip mall and when we called the police they said they were currently too busy to answer the call but would try to get there when they could. It was only by a miracle that that strip mall wasn't robbed or torched (and believe me we were praying for God's protection over our neighborhood that night!).

In some cases, the most insane aspect of the rioting was that after the looters would torch a place, they would try to attack the firemen who were showing up to put out the fire, which took strong police presence to accompany the firetrucks when they were working to help under dangerous and horrific conditions.

I know this is a frightening thought, but in the event of widespread rioting, know that the police may be too busy to protect you.
