Dowd: Top Five Reasons McCain Will Likely Lose

My opinion of why McCain is going to loose. Goerge Bush and SARA PALIN. He might have been able to over come Bush but Dang it, choosing her was just stupid.

It’s also been proven that voters think that 72 is too OLD to be an effective president.

I just had a thought…In eight days this will be all over, and hopefully, if Americans do their research and vote for Obama…
We will never have to hear Palin’s sarcastic whiney voice ever again.
That is enough to get my vote. HAHAHA

Please tell me is it really going to be over in 8 more days?..Really?..Oh god I hope so!….
Go MCrage!

Nov 4 will be a castrastophic event for Obama. Americans are actually going to vote instead of the media.

In a videotaped interview with Barack Obama on Chicago Public Radio WBEZ FM, in 2001, Obama explains the “tragedy” that the civil rights movement did not result in the ‘redistribution of wealth’. Primarily, the redistribution of wealth to ‘community organizers’ and others that could bring about change in the political system.
Obama talks openly about breaking free of the “constraints that were placed by the founding fathers in the Constitution” and in so doing, achieve “social justice” through “redistributive change.”

geevill: “Nov 4 will be a castrastophic event for Obama. Americans are actually going to vote instead of the media.”…..We have heard nothing but media spin for 2 years….when America does speak it may surprise many….especially Obama. If/when he looses we will have to endless media BS on the prejudice of America. If/when he wins we will hear endlessly from the likes of Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton on how he should run America. To all those that think America is an unhappy place….you ain’t seen nothing yet. Obama being lead around by the nose by Pelosie and Reid will trash America….think I’m wrong…read history. Presidents whose party have control of both Houses will not stop them from anything they want to do. Anything they send to him he WILL sign…ANYTHING. He doesn’t have the desire or backbone to do otherwise regardless of how bad it will be for the country.

Past is prologue.
Why doesn’t Dowd say that Obama who has to take an oath before taking office on our Constitution of which he doesn’t believe in? And that ABC is not reporting!

MyBrain:
You think that the liberal media elected Bush twice? Where were you then?
It was the democrats (Kerry) and the media that tried to do the same thing that was done durring the vietnam war. They tried to go in a antiwar/anti troop way and the country would not tolerate it. The hippy way of the sixties are dead. We have an all volunteer armed services that are damn proud to do their job with honor.
The media and democrats realized that their ‘hate the troops’ campaign wasn’t going anywhere, so they changed their message to ‘support the troops, hate the mission’, a bunch of b.s. The democrats and the media were wishing we lose the war. They still do. Why would they wish such a thing? Because they equate a victory in war is a victory for Bush. They hate Bush so much that they would rather lose than to give an ounce of credit to the man. Wishing for America to burn over bitter politics isn’t patriotic.
The media and the democrats dug their hole last election and lost.

OBAMA HAS BEEN CONSISTANT WITH HIS CAMPAIGN SINCE THE BEGINNING—MCCAIN HAS FLIP FLOPED ALL OVER THE AND HAS NO REAL PLATFORM—–VOTED ALONG WITH BUSH OVER 90%–AND NOW CLAIMS HE IS NOT BUSH—IS HE NOW PALIN –REALLY WHO KNOWS
GOODBYE MCCAIN
VOTE FOR OBAMA

Reason #6
A campaign run so poorly it begs to wonder how McCain would run an administration. He seems to let his advisors make decisions that should be his, like choosing a VP. On another note – Biden did not predict a war in 6 months and it is common knowledge any new president(dem or rep) will be challenged in his first year.

McCain used the better part of these last two months on “Silly Season” topics. Lipstick on Pig, Ayers, ACORN, “Who is Obama?”. Talk about great talking points. He and Palin used standard Republican talking points to attack and this time I think that many Americans this time just want our problems solved and we want to know who is solve them.

Annie: “and it is common knowledge any new president(dem or rep) will be challenged in his first year.”….actually your “common knowledge” theroy is flawed. Those that would attack America already know the answer to such an attack if McCain were president and so would not inflame the issue more……Obama on the other hand would treat any attack as ANY Democrat would (with the exception of maybe Leiberman)and that would be to send in the FBI to investigate and to open lines of surrender to our enemies.

I think Obama will win Nov 4, just look at the alternative!! ;-)

John,
I fully agree with your comment: ” It’s curious to me why McCain’s supporters blame the media for his decline in the polls. McCain has failed to run a campaign worthy of his reputation. Don’t blame the media, blame the man”. People are getting smarter, so is their jugdment and the media reflects this trend! Mccain is an arcaic man, with old ideias, and also hyprocite!I never forget the fact that he left his first wife, then crippled, with 3 kids, to marry the 18 years younger heiress. What an opportunist!

Becky, I am talking about ALL media outlets. To call Fox bias and not CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, as well as NY Times, Washington Post and LA times (just to name a few….shows just how clearly you have been fooled. Zogby, whose polls over the last few elections have shown to be the most accurate has this at a 4.5 point spread. Anything can happen here. If you think this is blow out then you have to ask some serious questions here, the biggest one is: Obama is out spending McCain almost 4 to one, the economy has taken a major slide, despite a changing war enviroment for the positive the public still wants out, major Bush fatigue, high food prices and gas prices….with all this going for him and Obama is only 4 to 8 points ahead…why? He should clearly be double digit and high double digit at that. There is something the media probably isn’t telling you. Obmission is still a lie if done with intent. You may have been lied to.

I think that Obama might actually be doing better in the polls, but, the polls are being taken of people with landlines. I do not know anyone with a landline. All my friends have cell phones, so there is a huge segment of the popultation that is not being polled. My grandma has a landline, so maybe they are polling only old people. ;-)

Why does AOL straw polls with one ISP per vote, with on average 165,000 votes, refreshed every week, consistently have McCain by a landslide?

Tomorrow will ABC run an article that says the 5 reasons Obama could lose?
1 — Ridiculous tax policy — additional taxes to spread the wealth is not patriotic. This is a country with a foundation to support hard work and success — not punish it. The DOW is in the toilet and Obama wants to increase capital gains tax. You don’t have to be rich to be impacted by this — no matter how little you have in the stock market you’ll end up with less. There isn’t enough time to go over the other impacts of his tax policy.
2 — No experience — sure Obama is a gifted speaker — but every Obama supporter I know can’t tell me what he has accomplished — they just say, well I like what he says?
3 — Not ready lead — the Presidency isn’t meant to be on the job training — Biden said this in the primaries and recently said Obama will be tested because of his inexperience
4 — Questionable relationships — I’m not sure why people ignore this — either Obama is clueless about the people he hangs out with or he enjoys hanging out with radicals — pick your poison — but it isn’t just one person or one group — there is a pattern here
5 — The American people vote — none of us know what will happen until Nov 4th — when Americans can vote — by secret ballot (would Obama like to eliminate that the same way he wants to do this for labor elections?)

Obama and Ayers Will Destroy America: Oh, believe me it will get ugly. The good news is the populace are armed. Any infringement on the popluation will not be tolerated. To those on the left that thinks the Patriot Act was intrucive have no idea what true scrapping of rights really is.

About this ‘redistribution of wealth’ issue.
All the voices we hear criticizing this Obama’s proposal come from the majority of voters, who make much, much less. Guys, let’s face it. Most of those people will NEVER get to the point of making 250K.
My husband and I are now high paid professionals. We are immigrants, we came to this country well educated, but with no money, poor English, poor social skills. We both worked extremely hard to prove our education and get USA licenses. We do make more than 250K. And a lot of our friends as well.
What puzzles me in this ‘redistribution of wealth’ reaction, is why we never hear any complaints about this proposal from people like us? We are paying high taxes now, and we are ready to pay more, but we want Obama to be elected. What it is all about those complaints from people who have no chance to make this amount of money, whe are going to benefit from ‘redistribution of wealth’, but still cannot admit that Omama’s economic plan is much more … well, economic?

That $250K???
THAT IS FOR COUPLES
And with Medicare caps?
The huge tax increases start at only $97,000 for an individual.
Add in the fact that Obama will let lapse the Bush tax cuts, the National real estate tax, fuel tax, global tax, carbon tax, cap gains tax, dividend tax, and corporate double taxation and the tax hit starts at only $40K for an individual earner.
PLUS you will pay MUCH HIGHER COSTS. Fuel alone will go up 25%.
PLUS you will be losing your jobs to outsourcing like crazy.
Oh, and Biden predicts a war within 6 months. So buy dried beans, water purifiers, and maybe some salt.

Interesting article . . . John McCain is appearing frail and just a little out of it of late – this only enhances concerns about Palin.
If the “media” would have been doing it’s job, perhaps we would of found out just what her ‘experience’ is. Just what does is mean to be mayor of such a small town? And why no talk in the media about the natural gas pipeline she’s pinned her hopes on but will never be built?
And why no discussion about what her children are witnessing at each and every rally? They’re evidently getting their schooling by listening to the shouts from the crowds.
If anything the media has held back on looking too closely at Ms Palin just as it has avoided looking at McCain’s questionable associations.

Birkie I cannot believe you justwrote “questionable associations” about McCain?
Please, do not insult every thinking person here.
If you do not know to which I refer, please research Ayers, Auchi, Odinga, Wright, Farrakhan, Cone, Kambon, and Obama’s #1 influence Communist Frank Marshall Davis.

Can we please stop with the “liberal media” blame. The point of a presidential campaign is for everyone (including the public & the media) to critique all canidates involved. If any canidate is seen to be lacking in any area this will be circulated throughout the country with or without the “liberal media”. In today’s information age you can find an argument for any side you wish to take. Don’t like the “liberal media” change the channel and be indoctrinated by Fox News. That’s your choice. No one in gov’t or media has control of your remote and has even less control of what you absorb with your senses. It’s rediculous to think that after Republican rule for 8 years that suddenly the media has all-encompassing control of who gets voted into what office. What ever happened to may the best man (or woman) win. The best man is about to win and anyone who does accept that fact is as delusional as… well… A McCain supporter!

OK, much clearer now.
A vote for McCain is a vote for the biggest scam America has ever seen.

My 5 reasons is:
1. Liberal media skewed and ommitted the facts towards obama favor.
2. Reporters not doing their jobs being objective and impartial.
3. McCain won’t get tough with obama slimmy past.
4. Disenchanted voter thinks they doing the right thing by going with obama.
5. As a gifted BSer, obama can lied and makes it sound credible.

But “your guide” McCain has the scars to prove it. LOL

I always wonder when people argue that the “media” is winning the election for Barack Obama if that means that you think the public cannot think for itself and it beleives whatever it sees on television or reads in the papers. Don’t insult peoples’ intelligence. most people form their own opinions regardless of what “agenda” you think the media is trying to push.

@rodney – actually, people grow up to be conservative because frontal lobe damage starts to set in at 40. The brain seriously deteriorates 5-15 years before death. And in between is just a downward spiral. One does not increase intelligence with age as you would have everyone believe. It goes down, down, down. Not only that, as one ages, so does their fear, which begins alter their decision making. Fear of getting hurt, fear of losing one’s job, fear of their kids running into the street, etc etc. They become more comfortable with status quo opposed to stirring things and changing things even when they know it’s the right thing to do. As one gets older, they fear change – any kind of change.
Now.. that’s not a good thing– to live in such fear that nothing gets accomplished.

Bird: “actually, people grow up to be conservative because frontal lobe damage starts to set in at 40.”….partly right…..people do grow up to be conservative mainly because they grow up. Winston Churchill once said, “If you are young and not a liberal, you have not heart. If you are old and not conservative you have no brain.” Bottom line is the young can be liberal with their ideas because they have very little worldly experience but once the reality and resonsiblity of family and home set in it clear that those that put out effort want to keep what they have earned. My guess, Bird, is that you are still in college and have yet to feel the real brunt of the world. Gurantee in 10 years your tune will be quite different.

Why does the media have to include stuff and broadcast it about the families of the people running in this election??
I think that its all bull crap. It is nobodies business, only broadcast stuff about the actual persons running.
My goodness peoples need to grow up.

Funny how the so-called liberal media is being blamed by desperate republicons this time. Even their beloved Fox Noise channel blames the Palin pick for much of McShame’s problems. I didn’t realize they grouped Rupert Murdoch as a liberal.
I also find it hilarious that they now blame the media. This of course is the same exact liberal media that allowed the coronation of ‘W’ by the supreme court to occur, followed by their refusal to investigate the voter caging in Ohio districts in ’04 that turned the election to ‘W’ illegally.
So basically, it is a liberal media when things don’t go their way but completely accurate when they do. What B.S.!

@concerned_citizen — media bias trying to bury the biden interview from this last weekend? BIDEN HIT THAT ONE OUT OF THE PARK!! No one is ashamed of that interview – the only one ashamed is West that she didn’t get her guy. She attempted to make joe fumble and he handed her ass to her instead.
Joe biden did what he does best. sarah palin would have CRIED if anyone asked her half those questions. he’s once again proven why he’s qualified to step in as presidnt and palin is not. she can’t even handle katie couric.

@tom – Tom, I am sorry that you were offended because of your old age. Denial isn’t going to help you. These are facts I present.
I almost gave you my age and family life history until I remembered that I don’t care what you think.
but one point: we can point to all those soccer mom votes for Bush the last election. those votes were generated by fear. they were concerned with homeland security.

Pros and Cons with both candidates, but here’s my reasons why McCain could not buy my vote (and I’m a registered Republican) —
1 – has run the most despicable campaign ever –
2 – Palin – what…a…moron. i am dumbfounded that anyone other than a complete idiot would support her as VP –
3 – mccain seems to focus almost entirely on what obama is going to/not do. i’d really like to hear what his plan is and how he intends to carry it out, but its too late –
4 – i did the research and i think obama has a better plan. plus he has spent considerable time explaining it and how he’s going to achieve it.
OBAMA/BIDEN 08/12

Tom, your argument about age holds no water. I was a conservative in college and later at age 30+ I became a liberal, after I realized how bad the republican policies were to middle-class families. The whole idea that repubs are the party of values falls apart when you look at how it affects one’s own family.
When I realized that Reagan’s policies destroyed much of what families hold sacred such as funding for public education, especially post-secondary, his elimination of survivor benefits for many children of the deceased it became obvious that republicans are anything but family friendly.
Reagan’s blatant disregard and defunding of the mental-health system of this country (which is why the homeless crisis became so bad) was the icing on the cake. He basically told the country to take on an “I got mine – Screw you” mentality.
All of this along with his phony anti-abortion stance was all designed to suck up to the religious right extremists because after many failed attempts he knew that without that he could not win.
So to be honest, I strongly believe Churchill had it backwards and I’d venture to say many of the folks old enough to remember what this country was like before him would agree.

Top 8 Reasons Obama will win!
1. George Bush (people will unfairly link McCain to Bush even though the two don’t like each other and McCain is considered not conservative enough in his own party)
2. Media Bias ( unbalanced reporting Giving Obama and forcing McCain to bring up the truth about Obama: Then blame him for running a negative campaign) If the media would have been fair and balanced McCain could have only ran on experience and Issues.
3. ACORN not saying Obama is connected or not although I believe he is! ACORN is supposed to be nonpartisan but have endorsed Obama and are linked to voter Fraud across the nation and all battle ground States!
4. Money ( lets face it money buys votes) Obama backed out on an earlier pledge on Campaign Finance allowing him to outspend McCain anywhere from 6-1 to 10-1 in all key battle ground states.
5. Young Voters and uninformed Voters: what Obama talks about sounds great to those who don’t have a lot of money but his redistribution of wealth is not what the founding Fathers ever intended!
6. Race: wining the African American vote 99% to 1% but that is not reverse racism!
7. Age: Young voters they will not vote for someone who is 72. (ageism) like racism only on age! However Ronald Reagan was 70 when he was elected and also one of our best Presidents!
8. Lack of understanding of the negative effects of Obama’s Tax plan: Raising taxes on those making more than 250,000 and business who makes more than 250,000. This will stop them from spending money and they will pass any increase on to the consumer effectively wiping out any tax break you receive. McCain will also cut your taxes if you actually pay any! And cut taxes on wealthy and Business this will inspire them to spend more money and provide better coverage and benefits to employees in the Middle class range. This does not even bring up the effects of doubling the Capital Gaines Tax on Business this will destroy any chance American business has to be competitive in a global Market.

There’s only “ONE” reason there would be a McCain loss, the people not voting for him are stupid! Who doesn’t want more jobs from small businesses who provide 70% of them, which Obama with his backwards taxation will heavily tax, Dumb? You bet! Does redistribution work, NO. Look back in history and you will more than clearly see that. Obama will stop growth, stifle business costs us even more jobs than Clinton and our economy will crash into depression, trust me.

Item #2 -
It’s COULDN’T CARE LESS. If you COULD care less, it means you CARE. If you couldn’t care less, it means you DON’T CARE. It’s hard to give credence to someone who likes “statistics” but can’t figure out the basic logic of a commonly used phrase. I quit reading right there – the writer doesn’t know what he’s saying!

Obama is allowing Kevin Costner to campaign with his wife Michelle in Colorado on Tuesday. Kevin Costner on his honeymoon exposed himself to the masseuse, holding her wrist so she could not escape and had a happy ending. A happy ending that the masseuse had clearly said NO to when Costner asked for it. When the masseuse complained she was fired. I have to question Obama’s stance on women’s rights. If Michelle Obama is aware of Costner’s actions, what does this say about Michelle’s stance on women’s rights? Is it okay if the sexual offender is a rich Hollywood actor? Obama seems more interested in winning the election then he is concerned for women’s rights.

@ ANNA – first of all I support obama and i’m far from stupid. i had the sense to do some research of my own, analysis, and made an informed decision. second, obama has not said he will raise taxes on small businesses. he said he will raise taxes on individuals making more than $250k. since you dont appear very analytical i wont bother trying to explain the implications of this. do yourself a favor and conduct a little research of your own rather than just blindly listening to what mccain says.

You tell her Idk!

#1 Reason Barack Obama will win this election. The Republican party has been high jacked by evangelicals. Ronald Reagan said “I didn’t leave the Democratic Party, the Democratic Party left me.” Well guess what? We’ve come full circle.

Funny Kate 54! Not so funny..
Looks like you don’t know the story how J.McCain have got his second wife..;))) or Palin idea about you having baby from your rapist..
Grow up!.. And what’s your point?

How’s the Kool-aid People?

Yes_We_will: you are not stupid just mis-guided you hear what you want without looking at it logically does anything Obama says make sense from a financial situation? Does it make sense that taxing the rich and Business will increase spending in the economy. Or grow jobs? If you say yes you are lying to yourself. His plan does not make sense. Increasing the Burden on Business does not inspire them to create jobs it will inspire them to do the opposite! Does increasing the financial burden on American business make it easier for these companies to be successful in a global economy? No these Companies will be forced to reduce wages, reduce the work force or shut down and move out of the country leaving many more out of a job. While forcing us to pay more money for Goods and Services. What good is a thousand dollar tax cut if you will pay 2,000 more over the year for goods and services? Think about it logically for one minute and you will see the obvious error in Obama’s plan!

@ LINDA/MICHIGAN – can you please describe for us how McCain has helped veterans? He openly opposes support to them by voting NO on critical bills in congress. also, can you please describe for us how McCain helped vietnam POWs? he openly supports keeping all records sealed that contain information about their status and whereabouts. mccain may support our active duty force by increasing defense spending but they seem to be a toy for him because once they are vets or pows he leaves them behind.

liberal media bias? who do you think owns the 3 major networks? are Disney, General Electric and Westinghouse liberal corporations?
it is so so so tried and old to use this trumped-up lie to explain why mclame and whatsherface are going to lose lose lose. you should try to come up with something new.
oh, that’s right, you lemmings cannot think for yourselves.
oh, btw, fox is fox

You Obama fans are freaking me out. Who do you think he is? He’s nothing special like you all saying he is. your making it sound like he can walk on water come on people look at the true facts not the party.

McCain is an angry, erratic, old geezer with impaired judgement. Hardly someone we need as President. And if he dies, we would have an inexperienced, Nut-case Separatist who, “on a clear day,” can see Russia. Only her followers are scarier than Palin.

@ LINDA/MICHIGAN
If you really care for the people serving this great nation, you should also care for the fact that their life is not something to be used for political gains.You should ask this question to Bush and Cheny and supported by Mcain and held them accountable for thousands of lives in Iraq for their vested interests.Souls of those soldiers will not pardon you if you support these politicians for lying to you about this war in iraq in the name of al quieda.If we had spend one in 10th of that money we spend in iraq in Afghanistan and Pakisthan we would have got the man we wanted by now and bring back our soldoers in glory by now.Instead what we are doing is sacrificing precious american lives in iraq in the name of peacekeeping while Iraq is repeatedly asking us to get lost from there.

batesba74
You are losing it now with statements like “Anyone who believes the media is not Biased and protecting Obama has no Idea what is going on and should not be allowed to vote because they are obviously ignorant to the facts!”
Typical republican thought process, they don’t agee with me. I better find a way to keep them from voting.
Presuming your moniker means you are a BA graduate of Bates College in ’74 I feel bad because you give the school a terrible name. My father in law was a Bates graduate in ’57, still living in Maine and he would be ashamed to have you associated to the school for posting so innanely.

ldk is it because I’m on cnn that you think I’m supporting obama? Well, I like cnn and I can see through who thier bosses are.

Chernmax – You forgot to mention Fox too. They have been dissing the Mccain Palin ticket too.

@ CATHY – i’m not sure what youre referring to. we’re on an abcnews site right now. and no i dont think you supporting obama.

Rightwingers are such morons supporting Father Time and Caribou Barbie. Only the deluded sheep like Rightwingers support the worst of the worst. Go away Rightwing losers leave my country please!Go form your own racist warmongering Taliban nation. You know you want too!

@ SWINGVOTER – it certainly looks that way, but i’d still like to know their answer – if media is so biased, where do we go for info that can be trusted?

Let me guess Fax News and Republican hate radio is “fair and balanced” Give me a break! Unfair and unbalanced 100% of the time just like their lemming GOP Zombies!Go away please!

one more brains has come back in fad for the presidency.

Right-wing fretting over “media bias” brings this question to mind: discounting the possibility of some sinister covert worldwide plot, I wonder if the reason Sen. Obama is getting more and better coverage than his opponent is because those in the media believe their audience is more interested in Obama, and are simply responding, as intelligent merchants do, to this belief?

The real reason McCain is loosing is Hannity, Levin and Limbaugh, who ripped him to pieces during the primaries. These guys (and Fox) decided that he wasn’t worth voting for. The conservative right eat their young and then spit them out. Just remember the backlash to Bill Clinton’s famous “Give me a break” speech. Democrates don’t tolerate destroying their candidates personally. Only Republicans have taken it to a new level, leaving a broken message, no one can understand.

As a patriot I have served my country for literally all of my adult life, but if Palin ever gets to be President I am leaving the country. Not merely because she will be president, but mainly because the country will be full of idiots.

McCain needs to settle down before he has a stroke. Seriously, I’m worried about his health..

I think choosing Sarah Palin should amount to more than 7% of the reason that John McCain will loose. I’m a Democrat and will vote for Barack Obama. If John McCain had selected Mitt Romney or someone else who had knowledge and experience, I might have considered voting for him. McCain’s performance at the debates was deplorable but the straw that broke the camel’s back was when he selected Palin as his running mate. When she opened her mouth for the first time, America said “John, What were you thinking?”

In a local restaurant my server had on an “Obama 08″ tie. I laughed as he had given away his political preference – just imagine the coincidence.
When the bill came I decided not to tip the server and explained to him that I was exploring the Obama redistribution of wealth concept. He stood there in disbelief while I told him I was going to redistribute his tip to someone who I deemed more in need – the homeless guy outside. The waiter angrily stormed from my sight.
I went outside, gave the homeless guy $10 and told him to thank the server inside as I’ve decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy was very grateful.
At the end of my rather unscientific redistribution experiment, I realized the homeless guy was grateful for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was very angry that I gave away the money he did earn even though the actual recipient deserved the money more.
I guess redistribution of wealth is an easier thing to swallow in concept than in practical application

Lets get the pattern of the Obama Campaign: Joe the Plumber they didn’t like the question, they investigated him and attacked him in speeches and in the media. A presidential candidate attacking a citizen who disagrees with him. That sounds real American to me! This weekend Biden was interviewed in Florida and they did not like the line of questioning on it calling his plan socialism, and asking about Obama’s influence by Marxist. What was the response of the Obama Campaign, not allow them anymore interviews because they don’t want the media asking them tough questions. Obama’s plan cut of or attack anyone who understands your plan for what it is Socialism! Again I will say higher corporate taxes does not provide more jobs!

I was at Walmart today and the cashier was Mexican/American and she has six kids. She sounded like she had more experience then Caribou Barbie and she can see Mexico from her house too ! Vote for her!

MCCAIN WIN LIKELY — YEP! — WHY? —- PEOPLE DON’T CARE ABOUT ISRI-DERIVED DATA-BASED GOBBLE-DEE-KOOK HEADLINES. THEIR EXPERIMENT DESIGN NEGLECTS TO CONSIDER NULL SET THEORY — PERHAPS ABC’s PRESIDENT– SHOULD HAVE STUCK TO GWU AND HARVARD — INSTEAD OF ACKNOWLEDGING YE OLD ALMA MATTER –

THAT IS — I CERTAINLY DON’T ASSOCIATE MCCAIN WITH BUSH — NIGHT AND DAY –

LOL! for the life of me I really thought #2 read “BRAIN DAMAGE” ;-/

chris: did you give the tip to the homeless guy instead of your waiter because the service your waiter gave you was “sub par”? Or you just didnt’ like the fact that he thought different than you? Forget it, no need to answer that, I already know (your type).

I hope he (Obama) gets your address after he is elected maybe he can attack you next idiot!

I just had a thought…In eight days this will be all over, and hopefully, if Americans do their research and vote for Obama…
We will never have to hear Palin’s sarcastic whiney voice ever again.
That is enough to get my vote. HAHAHA
Don’t forget to mention Obama’s ” look at me, ain’t I great” walk!!!

Who it thier right mind would talk to a terrorist? Who in thier right mind would go to a church with a pastor that spoke like he did for 20 years if he did’nt agree with him. Who in thier right mind would follow Fericon or what ever his name is. These Three men (to name a few) are not NORMAL people you actually learn something from thats helpful to the American people.

As a patriot I have served my country for literally all of my adult life, but if Palin ever gets to be President I am leaving the country. Not merely because she will be president, but mainly because the country will be full of idiots.

Unfortunately its to late, the idiots hath commeth and seem to be all on this blog! Seems we Dems are now “ruffling a feathers” ourselves!

breaking news..New ad just came out in swing states connecting Obama and Wright.let us all watch sean hannity show this evening..

It shocks me to hear one say the media has nothing to do with it. I think that is ludicrous. The majority of voters rely soley on the media for their overall opinion of both candidates. the select few atcually dig into history and READ. I also think the election is a lot closer than people think. It will be interesting to see if the Obama band wagon will actuall go out and vote because we all know the conservative party and the rich will go out this election. Especially since Obama plans on having government control the rich peoples money… smart thinking 95 percent of the country will have lower taxes but dumb thinking it will confirm his victory.

To aware2u – Please be right about Palin running. She’s such a mediocrity that she’ll bury the GOP for a generation if she runs. No one with a brin will vote for her. PLEASE BE RIGHT! Obama 08/12, Clinton 16/20!

His age has alot to do with it,anger has its place and I think by watching him he has the start of dementia…..

chris, trying having an original thought once in a while. This is the problem with Republicans. They CAN’T seem to think for themselves, they can only REPEAT what they hear on FOX and read in their emails.

Great now can we get Mike Murphy’s take on why Obama will lose??? C’mon ABC you can at least feign interest and practice for your complicance in Obama’s “Fairness Doctrine”!!!

If you all think the media is choosing this election you are as usual grasping for straws as repubs usually do. We the people will be casting our ballots not they the media. If your candidate could have done ANYTHING right from picking a V.P. to finding a message besides the attack,attack,attack method maybe the media could have written something good about him, you have to give good to get good! Go over to FOX and they will skewer a story over and up for you and stop crying because you are loosing, McShame lost this for you NOT the media!

Typical liberal you love America as long as everyone in it agrees with your views! I don’t see McCain attacking individual voters in the Media for asking him a question, I don’t see McCain telling reporters they will have no more interviews because your questions are to tough and expose me! McCain has nothing to hid and Obama does and it is starting to leak out bit by bit but unfortunately for all Americans it is going to be to late. All I will be able to tell you a year from now is I told you so! Democrats don’t want facts or truth they want pie in the sky speeches that amount to nothing.

Wow the ignorance of the right wingers still astound me. Party of mostly racist hiding behind the holy than thou bs. I live in TN and everyday on my way into work I deal with a variety of lunnies with McCain Palin stickers. The tone of intolerance in the conservative base is frightining, I know my wife won’t let me put my obama signs up because of the threats. These type of people are a dying breed and the sooner we sweep that creed out of our politics the sooner OUR GREAT COUNTRY can move foward. McCain is just an idiot “My Friends, My Friends, I know barrack said he won’t raise your taxes but I am telling he will and when I am president I will find those Weapons of Mass destruction in Iraq, my friends I will also promise to be completly healthy so that my vice president won’t get an early promotion.”
My democratic friends lets us just remember these are the same idiots who said in 2000 that GWB would be a better Pres than John. These are also the same idiots that put GWB in for 2nd term. We see that they have not gotten any smarter. Discount their hate and their fear of change, tell them to read the book “Who moved my Cheese?” it can help them over come these fears and maybe just maybe they might be a little smarter, but don’t hold your breath.

all the mavericks in the house put your hands up and around your back and get handcuffed and go straight to jail for treason..you anti american losers

batesba74 – regarding your #6 on the Top 8 Reasons Obama will win!
(6. Race: wining the African American vote 99% to 1% but that is not reverse racism!)…
you do realize that african americans represent only 12.85% (~40MM) of the total US population of 303,824,640 compared to 79.96% white (~243MM). so, do you honestly believe that even if EVERY single african american in the country voted for Obama he’d have enough votes to win the election based on their vote alone???

So Katie!..
No talk with crazy people, you say..
Which brings us to the governor Palin and her husband dreams about independent state of Alaska. If crazy lady decides to run for The President in 2012 we’ll have all the media talking about Alaska independent party and its crazy boss all over again ;))) It is going to be interesting…

Who in their right mind would vote for inexperience senator who has accomplished nothing in his career! Who in their right mind would vote for a man whose wife hates American and has never been proud of her country. Who in their right mind would vote for a President who is them most liberal member of the senate with no track record of working across the Isle. Who in their right mind would vote for someone who was second in contributions from Freddie and Fannie and first from Lehman brothers in just 4 years as a senator. Who would vote for a man who has raised money for, received money from and was endorsed by ACORN a organization he worked for and trained. An organization who is accused of voter fraud in most battle ground states! Who in their right mind would vote for a man who would sit down with leaders of hostile nations without precondition! Who in their right mind would vote for a man who does not consider Iran a serious threat to the United States! Who in there right mind would vote for a man who does not even understand the Russia / Georgia crisis. Who in their right mind would vote for a man who not only wants to share the wealth with all Americans but share our wealth with poorer countries as well! Who in their right mind would vote for a man who wants to cut defense spending after 9/11. Who in their right mind would vote for a man who is so knowledgeable on history but thinks we are naive enough not to see the problem with his relationship with a domestic terrorist. Who in their right mind would vote for a man who attacks ordinary Americans who question his policy! Who in their right mind would vote for a man who is going to be tested by the world! Who in their right mind would vote for a man who wont talk to the media because they want to know the truth. Who in their right mind would vote for a man picked an protected by the media! And don’t claim he has not been! that argument holds no water because 18 million Clinton supporters were claiming a Obama media bias and protected him. Fact is Hilary was correct and so was Biden This man is not ready to lead and his views are extreme and dangerous for America. If he answers that phone at 3am we will not see a 4am!

You want to talk about lies? Obama claims that 95% of Americans will get a taxcut. THAT IS A FLAT OUT LIE

Hey Greg, maybe you should tell your brother to ask the 76% of troops that would vote McCain as president why they are there. Maybe he shouldn’t have signed up to go in the first place. I know for a fact GW Bush didn’t make your brother go.

Redistribution of wealth is Obama’s way of helping out poor and lazy people, rather than having them get a job. I guarantee the unemployment rate reaching an all-time high while Obama is in office.

Obama’s plan is a lie. You will see it first hand when he wins.

greg stay on the subject. What I said was that Hussin killed thousands of Kurds with chemical weapons and did not use nuclear. Chemical weapons are weapons of mass destruction but whenever someone hears “weapons of mass destruction” they automatically think of nuclear.

greg I have a son on his second tour and he knows exactly why he is there!!!

Greg, you want a fact? Go look at the FACT that they polled the troops at war right now, and McCain won overwhelmingly. Don’t spout off facts until you know them. Your brother’s opinion is his own and it is his right to have one, but the troops at war right now went there willingly. They are there for a reason, and it is a reason that your liberal, hippie brain couldn’t possibly understand.

greg Tell me where you obtained your “fact” about the soldiers being for Obama.

I think the disillusionment with, and rejection of, the GOP stems from its leadership violating its own principles.
In the past 8 years we have seen government grow bigger than ever along with spending that would make a liberal blush.
Voting for this incarnation of the Republican party is a vote for what it was, not what it is now.

greg maybe your brother doesn’t completely understand why he is over there, but something inside him told him it was the right thing and he had the courage to do something about it. How about you?

When Obama is elected, I’ll tell you what the future holds for all of us. And it isn’t pretty.
Sean Hannity will have such a severe coronary that his heart will disintegrate.
Rush Limbaugh will take over the world record for “world’s fattest human being” as well as “world’s biggest pain pill overdose”.
Bill O’Reilly’s head will explode on his FIXED NEWS show.
Ann Coulter’s inner “beauty” will show through as she transforms into a big fat ugly bitch.
Rick Davis will get a job selling subprime mortgages to loser Republicans.
Sarah Palin will go completely insane.
and finally,
John McCain will go to anger management training – as mandated by the courts – after calling Cindy the “C” word one time too many.

If this article is true then it is time for us to say Good-Bye to a lot of things:
1. Goodbye to Bush
2. Goodbye to our right to bear arms
3. Goodbye to our retirement accounts (Obama plans on confiscating them)
4. Goodbye to privately owned business (Marxist society does not alow it)
5. Goodbye to the American Dream (you will be provided with government housing)
6. Goodbye to our Constitution.
AND SADDEST OF ALL:
7. GOODBYE TO THE USA!
The consequences of this election are far more reaching then either side realizes.
And in the end, we will have only ourselves and our left-wing media to blame.
Oh, by the way, you media types with the huge celebrity salaries…Forget it. When the Government formally takes over the media, you will get the same government mandated salary as every else.
You fools.

zed you can tell the future? Let me try. If Obama gets in I predict all the Obamaholics will be screaming after he screws the whole country up.

I can only hope and pray that McCain loses! The man is a senileold hot head. And Palin is a joke.

For all the foolish Republican pultroons who have taken such umbrage at the “redistribution of wealth” comment………Apparently, you don’t realize W. redistributed your wealth over the last 8 years. You haven’t noticed? Not very observant!

What relly is unfair is that if the Obamaholics get their way all of us have to suffer.

Vickie You feel good?? Must be really hitting that Obama kool-aide!!!!

GUYS and GALS,
McCain does have one big ACE in the hole and Karl Rove’s computer expert, Mike Connell, knows who he is. He did help steal the 2004 election and the Supremes helped steal the 2000 one. Is 2008 really untouchable…FILM AT ELEVEN…

If McCain is too old to be President, then Warren Buffett is too old to be in Obama’s cabinet. Buffett is in his 80s. It is sickening how Obama is using McCain’s age against him.

Hey you 3 or 4 deluded people who really think McCain’s gonna win, go to InTrade and put your money where your mouth is. McCain is scraping 12% in the prediction markets, so you can make some really really good money if he somehow manages to win this thing.

Those of you who are thinking that this will all be over on election day are fooling yourselves. With all the allegations of voter fraud during the primaries and now possible voter registration fraud in the general election – the results of this election are going to be bitterly contested much longer then Bush vs. Gore – no matter who “wins” on election day.

I couldn’t agree more “My two cents.” Obama has been a clever politician and his “closing arguments” ploy is another good one. This election is more than a week out and he is continuing to MANIPULATE the voting public; encouraging voters in Colorado to vote ealy, saying the election is over with the help of the media. What he is doing is simply stealing the average Joe’s vote, just like he totally mocked Joe the Plumber(obama is arrogant) and even tried to destroy Joe the Plumber.Obama is trying to steal the election before ANY NUMBER of things that can finally be proven will surface.He’s been like teflon so far but that will change,just like Biden predicted. He is desperately trying to get those votes in the box before people start to question him. It’s the salesman’s trademark;HURRY, SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE; SEAL THE DEAL.This is why early voting was so unsound for the American populace. This is all par for the course with Obama. Hitler used very clever tactics and oratory as well. There are real similarities here, scary, but true. Hitler said that if you repeated a lie enough (McCain is George Bush) and it was a big enough lie, people would believe it.He has been consistent in his total manipulaton of the masses. I never would have believed in MASS HYSTERIA if I had not seen it, or MASS JEALOUSY as the women have displayed against Palin. This woman did not do anything so wrong to justify her treatment. It can only be chalked up to one thing. But one should never rule out the Christians and Dobson has weighed in with his letter of 2012. I suggest people read it, if they have not already sold their souls.

Why is picking Palin a mistake? She is very capable, more than all those other guys.

Frm Alper. Mark-your guide, You are truly pointing out and comparing what people are really missing. I LOVE IT. WAKE UP AMERICA!!!, it is not being a republican or democrat, it is about america and its’ steep falling very fast in front of the other nations and other countries. If you claim to be the leader of the world then pls, act like one.(for example: not by choosing a childish VP). To raise the credibility again with other nations USA needs a leader charismatic and honest and grown-up and young as well(who shouldn’t be thinking like my grandmother). Wake up America. Break your sea-shell and start swimming to see how others see you as a nation. If you really want to lead the world every single person have to be taught to be able to locate every country in the world. It shouldn’t be only your local interest when you chose the person as president. So choose a likeable one, not one just like another bush.

I’d say the #1 reason he’s going to lose is his choice of Palin. He was doing great in the polls just after he chose her, but as the country got to know her, he went way down in the polls.
While evangelicals and midwestern moms seem to really like her, most of the country sees her as inexperienced, unsophisticated, and too much of a religious fundamentalist. Many of the conservative columnists have said as much.

What did Sarah Palin say when she walked out to meet Joe Biden for the VP debate? “Hey, can I call you Joe?”
This is someone who isn’t ready to represent our country, meet foreign leaders, etc. She comes across as way too down-home and wet behind the ears. That’s nice for a talk-show host or head of the PTA, but not for a VP or, God forbid, President.
And you can be sure the foreign leaders have heard the interviews where she didn’t know what Bush doctrine was, and couldn’t name a single newspaper that she reads, or a single Supreme Court decision.
She just isn’t in the big leagues, and I can’t imagine she ever will be.

Hey doom and gloomers… You’re so wrong!
All the dire circumstances you predict for an Obama presidency are just the moans and cries of folks who see the executive branch they thought they “owned” slipping away.
The country will be fine. It will actually get better.
Hope trumps despair. Faith trumps fear and love [also defined as charity] will always triumph over hate.
I hope you all participate in the good I predict.
God’s grace for us all — Americans.

hi this election drives me crazy man mccain is really strong person and all this year i support jone mccain but it seems obama will talk it the election. becouse he is ten times power full of jone mccain and in every issue he has better answer so i sould vote obama mccain is down by all so sorry mccain and pailen.

They are going to blame it on Palin soon. She did not make the pick.

I would like to add another reason that McCain will not win. The stretching of the truth by the Obama in regards to how bad Bush and McCain were doing the last 8 years.
1. According to a GAO report 61% of US corporations paid no federal taxes from 1996 to 2000. Looks to me that some ground work was done before Bush got into office. If you take a shot at McCain do not forget Biden.
2.The US government has been signing trade deals for over 40 years to open up more free trade. Not really created by Bush.
3. The WTO stops us every time we have attempted to make changes in the trade laws. Again not Bush all alone.
4. US Corporations do not get paid to move jobs overseas like everyone claims but rather they are not paying taxes since the products are not manufactured here. Another case of stretching the truth by the Obama team.
5. One of the real big issues is that many countries (at least 157) do not have income tax but rather a VAT. They pay on what they consume not what they make in income. This has nothing to do with Bush.
6. Burdens on many of our large manufactures for employee benefits for retire employees, (health and fixed retirements) makes it difficult to compete in the world markets, not just the low wages, employment practices and environmental concerns we have continued to hear from the DNC. The finger can not just be pointed at Bush and McCain.
7. Information out of the Obama camp talks about jobs going to third world countries and buying oil from enemies of our country. They never mention the jobs that went to Canada and oil we import from Canada. Don’t blame Bush.

Obama is educated, sincere, experienced, moral and a leader.
McCain is hot-headed, war-monger and out of touch with our country.
Biden will be helpful with his experience.
Palin is a disgrace to all American women!

I think Obama will lose the election.
The media behind Obama (ABC, NBC, CBS) are losing the plot, they dont have the power over the people they think they have.

Wow! I, for one, would be terrified if Palin and McCain get in office. This is not a conservative/liberal, rural/elitist thing. This is a common sense thing. The last thing this nation needs is someone who feeds on division and accusations. Ayres? Come on…that’s like saying I am a drug-dealer because my ex-boyfriend back in junior high was convicted in high school, and now teaches kids to stay off of drugs. Oooh! Palin? That is a scary association. The woman cannot handle her own family let alone this nation (pregnant teenage daughter, overbearing husband). This is not gender specific. I am a working mother of three and I am more qualified than this ignorant woman to lead this nation. Should I? No and neither should she. Hillary would have been awesome, but I have grown to acknowledge the power of Obama (and no I am not referring to any supposed antichristian weirdness), and I feel we need someone calling for unity, intelligence and hope. Muslim? Who cares? If you do, then you are a sad sad individual and should pay more attention to religious teaching besides your own. I am a Christian but I feel no distrust of Muslims both here in the US and abroad. I have personally known people who practice Islam, and they are good Americans who cringe everytime someone makes anti-Islamic comments. We are not a Christian nation and people need to realize this. It is not a bad thing. It is as American as apple pie to practice according to your own beliefs. I, for one, would feel more comfortable if my president was an atheist or agnostic rather than suscribe to one religion over the other. Objectivity should be an important part of any elected official. Nevermind the hypocrites of both parties that claim Christianity and then pray at the feet of Wall Street. This country is nearly broken. We need a new agenda. We need new leadership. We need to get off our butts and make sure that whatever the outcome of this election, we are involved in our own governance. This was the intent of the founding fathers. GO VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama is shamelessly hitting on contributors by daily e-mails for donations. He’s the true American dream! Out spend your opponent and hurray for the guy with the most money. Obama is the supreme capitalist.
America deserves Obama! HA HA HA!!!!!

I reject the idea that the media has won or lost this election for either candidate. Those who care to believe otherwise may have some kindred spirits, but I think most Americans are tuning out the shrill voices on the far left and far right and taking the time to discern the issues and cast their votes in an intelligent and thoughtful manner. I am aware of the issues raised for and against both candidates. I hear and read about them ever day. I live in a state (Texas) that McCain will carry. The Dallas Morning News endorsed McCain as have many other newspapers. The thing is that I was not persuaded by their endorsement. So while McCain may take Texas, he did not win my vote. Neither did the local Republican candidates in my county. I am conservative and an independent voter, but I do not agree with what McCain stands for. For me, Obama is the better leader for our country. I have many friends and acquaintances from my military service, college, etc and we are spread throughout the country. Most are voting for Obama. It wasn’t the media that tipped the balance. It was our own judgment of the candidates’ policies and plans for the future.

McCain has other issues…He has built his career by surrounding himself with lobbyists and special interests. The person he put in charge of his transisiton team (if he wins) is William Timmons, one of the capitol’s leading lobbyists! McCain’s life is so embedded with other people calling the shots, he wouldn’t be running this country—BIG BUSINESS would.

What those who say the reason McCain is losing is that the media has treated him unfairly, are really saying, is that the majority of people are so stupid they can’t figure things out for themselves. As for their complaints that the media is biased against the republicans: perhaps, they should use a longer sampling period. After all, during the 2000 and 2004 elections, the major media all but ignored Bush’s lack of “apparent” intelligence. John McCain is actually quite boring compared with Bush. Up until he selected Sarah Palin, he had as good a chance as any one. But who but anyone just thinking of themselves is going to vote for a 72 year old who insults the intelligence of many of his supporters with such an idiotic choice for VP. Do people really expect to press to report that she is qualified when she is clearly not. (Isn’t that what FoxNews is for.)It may be true that Bush may not have even been qualified to be a VP– let alone president. But he was at least an order of a magnitude more qualified than Sarah Palin. And, as for the one-sided late night joke index– for obvious reasons, clowns get more laughs then lion tamers.

What was that saying about not fighting a two front war … or that one about being careful about what you wish for…
I think that the reason why McSame and the republican majority is in trouble are two fold. 1) they were idealistic and 2) they got exactly what they wished for… control. This is great if you are smart, lucky, and at the start of a pax romana, but lets face it. We are at the end of our glory years, which is not to say we aren’t a world power… we can still cause a holicaust, kick the ass of any country we want to, and cause the world economy to tank… but we have to be prepared to live with the consequence. And the consequence of two half assed wars is failure.. and there is nothing Americans hate more than a loser or a chump, which we have all become. So the concentration of power, arrogance and ignorance… (all Palin characteristics aka Hubris) has driven a point home. And we did it to ourselves. After all we got the government that we voted for & we now live in a world that has changed, which is scary and baffling. We no longer want the school jock to lead us the class nerd to explain things in terms we can understand. Good luck to Obama. FDR had a four terms and three or four meglo-maniacs to distract the country. The dems may regret the opportunity.

YES, I’M A BAD AMERICAN
I Am the Liberal-Progressives Worst Nightmare. I am an American.I am a Master Mason and believe in God.I ride Harley Davidson Motorcycles and believe in American products. I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some Liberal governmental functionary be it Democratic or Republican!I’m in touch with my feelings and I like it that way!
I think owning a gun doesn’t make you a killer, it makes you a smart American. I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and does not entitle you to anything. Get over it! I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac, do it in English.
I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and where they want to.My heroes are John Wayne, Babe Ruth, Roy Rogers, and Willie G Davidson that makes the Awesome Harley Davidson Motorcycles. I don’t hate the rich. I don’t pity the poor. I know wrestling is fake and I don’t waste my time watching or arguing about it.I’ve never owned a slave, or was a slave, I haven’t burned any witches or been persecuted by the Turks and neither have you! So, shut up already.I believe if you don’t like the way things are here, go back to where you came from and change your own country! This is AMERICA ….We like it the way it is! If you were born here and don’t like it you are free to move to any Socialist country that will have you.I want to know which church is it exactly where the Reverend Jesse Jackson preaches, where he gets his money, and why he is always part of the problem and not the solution. Can I get an AMEN on that one? I also think the cops have the right to pull you over if you’re breaking the law, regardless of what color you are.And, no, I don’t mind having my face shown on my drivers license. I think it’s good….. And I’m proud that ‘God’ is written on my money.I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don’t want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation in the world for the next four years.I believe the president of the United States should put his hand over his heart and say the pledge of allegiance and should have no reservations about wearing American flag pins on his lapel. I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell me stuff or trying to guilt me into making ‘donations’ to their cause. Get a Job and do your part! I believe that it doesn’t take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents.I believe ‘illegal’ is illegal no matter what the lawyers think.I believe the American flag should be the only one allowed in AMERICA !If this makes me a BAD American, then yes, I’m a BAD American.
If you are a BAD American too, please forward this to everyone you know.We want our country back!
We NEED GOD BACK IN OUR COUNTRY!
WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE,
ONLY BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE

I still worry about the voting machines that haven’t been changed from the 2000 election. They are still in 36 States. Let’s not forget the last administration
Why hasn’t anybody asked for this President and his administration for there impeachment?
1. Stole the 2000 election.
2. Responsible for the foreign policies, that led to the 9/11 attack.
3. Lied to the American people about the weapons of mass destruction.
4. Responsible for starting an illegal war.
5. Went after the wrong enemy responsible for 9/11 attack.
6. Didn’t abide by the Geneva and Hague Conventions.
7. Allowed the Al Qaeda break America financially.
Cleary they had a different agenda for Iraq. (A US present in an oil country).
8. Is a slave to the Oil & Financial Lobbyist?
9. Responsible, for 750,000+ jobs leaving America.
10. Responsible for the broken bank system.
11. Responsible for the broken housing market.
12. Responsible for the loss of the 401k investments.
13. Responsible for high fuel prices..
14. Responsible for the mass unemployment we’re experiencing.
15. Responsible for the failed medical system that only the elite can afford.
If we don’t punish the responsible parties to this disaster its going to happen again.
