Let McCain be in the Lead. Let the American people imagine their future up close!
Edited on Sun Sep-07-08 09:42 PM by FrenchieCat
The senile old man who doesn't talk about the issues, and his invisible running mate.

Let them see where it is that they are heading in the 21st century.

Let them understand the lose of the right to choose, their social security, and our preparation for nothing but more wars.

Obama is used to being 20 points behind. This will just make us that much more determined and enthusiastic.


And have not doubt about it, I don't believe these polls......and I didn't believe them when we were up, because I know the polling company decide who to call and when to call and what zip codes to call, and the weekend polling always sucks big time for Barack.

So let the stupid people see what they are in for with McCain at the helm. let them take a close look at their leader without an original idea in his head and his extremist sidekick. Might do them some good.

1. Maybe the press will focus on McCain's positions for a while - let's bomb Iran, etc.
He has gotten away with a ton of crap.

4. and then some!
Let McCain get cocky.

Watching his speech on Thursday was step one.
Watching his ARRP speech was step two.

At some point, folks are going to think about what it is that they are doing,
and many are going to wise up.

Let Obama go into the first debate as the underdog.
I'm actually looking forward to it.

5. I agree but it is going to be annoying reading in my papers
about the great McCain surge even though when Obama was ahead after the convention they did not put that story on the front page like they did for McCain when he got a lead in a poll then promptly lost it. Polls are meaningless I am happy when they are in our favor of course but the only poll that counts is the one taken in November when the people vote.

6. Just let them imagine......
and let them pay closer attention to John McCain.

His ARRP performance went over like a giant lead balloon,

Obama got standing ovations.

So yeah, let them look at the small petty and ambitious man who lies a lot, and maybe they will realize who he reminds them of.

or in this case...the SOLUTION to the problem of Losing the election...Palin was selected as a long shot and/or as the sacrificial lamb to join Gramps at the Alter of Sacrifice....But its McPain who risks all....as he well should

Guilty of fucking with our National Security by nomming a rookie in time of conflict....and she is being trained by Lieberman, a LOSZER? WTF? What is she gonna learn from HIM? or any of them? She could prolly teach them a thing or two...not so much in the mechanics of the Oval but in terms of bazzazz when on the stump....Her prob is her creds...it don't look good at all.....

McPain has the nerve, the audacity to ram MRS PTA BABE MOM as the #2 down out throats...

Not a good Charactor Move....

The Empty President... you should read of the signs of a BULLY

8. The polls are wrong... they don't count people who only have cell phones.
They haven't been calling cell phones, and as a result, are inaccurate. Most of the people who have no land line, are younger voters, who came out in large numbers this primary season for OBAMA!
