Everyone calm down (anti-vanity vanity)

Posted on 11/01/2008 7:51:16 PM PDT by Retired Greyhound

I think everyone who keeps posting the breathless vanities needs to take a night off and plug in a movie.

John McCain is going to win this election. The polls are misreading the Dems and Republicans registered as Dems when the reweight their polls. They are way off.

Republicans are firmly established parties in OH, FL, NC and VA. They know how to turn out voters in these states and will carry them. PA will be the surprise of the contest.

But...if it doesn't go our way, we need to keep our heads clear and look at the positive. We have Sarah Palin. She has rinsed our party of the David Brooks/Peggy Noonan losers once and for all. We can begin working on a conservative coalition.

Two years of Obama, Pelosi and Reid will lead to gains in Congress in 2010. Palin will be a force in 2012 and defeat Obama (assuming he hasn't outlawed elections by then or we haven't been nuked by Iran). She and Bobby Jindal will really clean up Washington.

I certainly want McCain to beat Obama - Barack has no business in the White House. But I do acknowledge that McCain will drive us conservatives nuts for four years as POTUS. Sarah will probably have to run against him in the primary in 2012.

FIGHT ON!

What would make me laugh is Hussein in handcuffs...saying, “but it wasn’t my fault, Bill Ayers made me do it and it was George Bush who refused to put him in jail for having a bad influence on me...”

For all the vanities and mindless polls, it’s a mystery how this site even runs.

I see the excess vanities during this election runup as everyday people trying to make a difference, any way they can.

I think Mr. Robinson and the MODS have been pretty lenient about the vanities, and it’s probably a ‘good’ thing.

If it gets much more mindless, the how may change to why.

I remember November 4, 2004, when early in the day CSPAN was running a live tour of a major polling office with DNC staffers there. They were highlighting misleading poll data that suggested a total blowout of Kerry/Edwards voters and that the elections was all but over. The Wonkette blog repeated the misleading data, then Drudge took the bait and posted a siren, claiming that Bush was doing very badly in exit polls. Drudge quickly figured out he was snookered and took down the siren.

What I’m saying is that people are using polls as a tool to try to move more votes for Obama. The only poll that matters will be televised at Midnight on Tuesday. Even then I would take it with a grain of salt as parsing out the fraudulent votes will take even more time.

I sure hope they are misreading it. Hopefully McCain/Palin people are just ignoring the polling phone calls, or being less than candid with the pollsters.

I refuse to be terrified of my situation. So, I have a terrible job and can't pay my bills. I worry about my kids and now will probably have President Lenin appointing crazy judges and stripping me of my rights and taking the last of my money to buy votes from winos.

No problem. I have lots of ammo and two good dogs. I have a good family. I have the ability to implement redistribution and/or live off the land. I have a benevolent God who has promised me eternal life. It could be worse.

I propose a drinking game for all who are panicking. Let's all take a shot when we hear the word "change". It's a giant pendulum. It's swinging to the left. It will then swing to the right. Tick tock.

We should all be practicing the wierding words, so that when the Democrats come, we can speak and burst their organs, or set them on fire.

No, really. Also, I have sandworms in my back yard. They make the dogs really nervous. But I'm going to ride them someday.

From sea to shining sea. I'm series.

I disagree, not a purge, they have to mend some fences or be ignored by Conservatives.

The question of "why" has crossed my mind many times lately, what with more than one DU refugee saying "you go ahead and hold onto your precious principles'.

And they weren't all noobs either.

I waited in line 5 hours to vote last Sunday in Florida. It was mostly an Obama crowd - blacks, gays, Jews, affluent/educated whites. (East Ft. Lauderdale).

There was a group of young black men - looking like extras from Central Casting for “The Wire.” They started trash-talking; they were trying one-up each other by mentioning they were “goin t’bee ConstiTUtional schawllurs jus lik Obama.”

Funny! Well - at least they aren’t aspiring to be drug dealers nor see going to jail as a right of passage!

It will end if/as Barak Hussein Obama II gains executive power in this country. How could this happen? Certainly the biased media helped. But what also helped was any fanatical group which eliminated highly qualified candidates because they did not completely meet that group's litmus tests.
