I predicted Nobama would lose big after super Tuesday.

He'd already been playing the race card and it was obvious after super Tuesday he had big deficits with hispanics and Catholics which put all of the SW, NJ, and quite possibly Mass out of his seal. Christ, he lost Mass. by 17 full points precisely because of the Catholic and Hispanics were not behind him.

And damned when you're running as a Dem and you know most of the south and upper and central western states are lockfirm GOP you better have NJ, Penn, WI, Minn and all of New England ,NY and CA,OR,Michigan and WA locked up and not have to fight for them. He's not even barely competitive in the southwest nor Michigan or Florida, those states his bug-eyed looneytunes supporters and their Chief Loon, Howard Dean, were so eager to disenfranchise.

He has none of that. And McCain has nothing to do with his money but come after.

Obama is a greedy fleabag and his supporters are koolaide drinking morons.

He's going to have the worst electoral defeat since McGovern.

Only the looneytunes fringe left could have screwed this up so badly on a year you had to TRY to screw up. Nobody else could possibly have done it.

Florida goes to Obama by 5 points. Ohio goes to Obama by double digits.

Who wants to put some cold hard cash on it?

::sigh:: Hope springs eternal in the heart of the lunatic fringe.

Original article: The culture war: It's back!

This you're wrong on dear.

Socialism and failed big government regulations? Are you serious? The liberal left is void of any ideas which sensible Americans agree with

Wrong. America is not and never has been a socialistic nor big govt country. That's assinine. When Dems controlled the country (and I mean controlled, not a razor thin majority with President Veto there) there was sensible regulation and controls on big money and power.

That helped you, not hurt you. for 40 years as this has been repealed starting with Reagan, how are you better for it?

You have no pension, healthcare has soared, college has quadrupled, companies have been PAID to send jobs overseas by the 10's of millions and now the banking system is collapsing from the overturn of Glass in the late 80's.

HOW ARE YOU BETTER OFF? You want more of this? You'll get it.

we ALL will. Another reason to detest the Obama koolaide drinkers who foisted that nightmare loser on the Dem ticket.

It's OVER.

the "naysayers" are the ones reading sites like realclearpolitics.

To put that in context for you and the koolaide drinkers there's not a single poll anywhere in the past week that has McCain with less than a 5 to 8 point lead in Florida and less than a 3-8 pt. lead in Ohio.

To put that in context Obama's purported lead in New Jersey is only two friggin points. Not to mention Wisconsin , Oregon, Penn, et al are statistical ties along with several others Obama can't even lose one of.

Michigan's gone.Florida's gone. Ohio's gone, West Virginia's gone. New Jersey and Penn are probably gone. New Hampshire is gone. Minnesota is a dead tie. Hell even New York,Mass and California are in play. All within the same margin or LESS for Obama than the margins McCain has in Florida and Ohio while Christopher Macwhateverthefrick insists Obama can take.

GET IT? Do these in-play states sound familiar to you ostriches? They should. They're all states,big electoral vote states,that Mrs. Clinton won by 10 points or more in the primary. Meanwhile North Carolina, you know that state you insisted on using race baiting to shove this shipwreck on the ticket - that's 17 friggin points to McCain's favor.

We tried to tell you. Don't blame me. Don't blame phoney "racism" unless you're talking about Nobama's campaign and all the manufactured nonsense about Bill and Hillary being "racists" and "dissing" MLK.

Instead blame Blame Christopher MacFrick - he was one of the biggest Hillary bashers and pro-0bama koolaide drinkers to be found anywhere. Better yet blame yourselves.

Exactly

Senator Obama generally opposes EARMARKS, that is unless they affect himself or his wife Michelle Obama

Exactly. But the koolaide drinkers were going to shove this piece of dung on the ticket, his "accomplishments" (lack of that is) and history of a very very questionable integrity be damned.

Anyone with an ounce of political sense knew Nobama couldn't win from the start - including Obama and his simply repulsive wife. They were in it for the money for themselves. As always.

To think ever foolish, ever more hateful radical left willingly destroyed a great progressive candidate WITH a record that every American was familiar with and near all overwhelmingly was on board for is truly amazing.

Give it a rest.

She'd hardly be the first politician whose spouse was hanging around or knew a little about what she was working on.

Sarah Palin has done more for women like me by far than the leftist shitheads all over Salon who tore Hillary down,victims of their own misogyny and sheer stupidity. They've done WHAT for any of us besides insist on their incompetent idealistic icons from Howard Dean to Nobama ensuring the government stays in Republican hands for almost 40 years.

THAT doesn't help women.

@Ianna

He is. He can hang around my desk anytime... :-)

@Zoltran

lol.you had me until you started the streisand rhetoric. I don't believe she was or is a Nobama supporter so give that at least a rest.

Monday, September 15, 2008 06:52 PM

Oh for Godsakes..

But my bet still remains: I'm offering even odds that Governor Palin is indicted and pulled from the GOP ticket before this thing goes to November.

Have another cup of koolaide.
