The Note: GOP Faces Electoral Disaster

Rick is this a joke?

As Joe biden continues to say We need a FDR Type “New deal” While it has been proven FDR’S new deal kept us in the depression longer

I’ve heard and see first hand how state and local races have been cannibalized to send money to “St. John the Baptist of BS.” The ONLY people who have helped the canidates, get this… Are the RON PAUL voulnteers that the McCain campaign systematically ignored, ridiculed, insulted, and castigated… simply because they wanted a REPUBLICAN nominated for the Repubilcan party!!! Now John the maniac! is happy to see the whole DAMN party go in the toliet to prop up his already imploded camapaign of “Terror”… It didn’t have to be this way… Why oh WHY didn’t the lunatic who can’t tell the same story to the public or his base (namely the press) do what he threatened to do in ’00 and become the Democrat he truly IS! Why oh why didn’t he run as Kerry’s VP, since he and Kerry are SO alike and chummy. The party would be in much better shape had John stuck to his guns and done what he said he’d do. But hey, once you sellout your principles, what more is it to sellout your party!!!

Mike – I will amen that. I do not know what idiot decided that Sarah Palin would get the Hilleries to his side but who ever it was should be shot at dawn.

“me: A vote for barack obama is a vote for corruption like we have never seen in the white house.”
After literally years to make a factual, reality-based case, all the McCain camp is left with is naked fear mongering. Sad. There isn’t a single good thing they can say about their candidates record now that he’s spent the last 8 years as one of President Bush’s chief enabler, selling his soul to the ‘base,’ who loves Sarah Palin and thinks President Bush has America on the right track, just for the nomination.

The way I see it, Sarah Palin has a head full of air. She is overly confident, she fails to see that there are a lot of things she has no grasp or knowledge of.

hahahahaha it is real.
That was hilarious.
NEWSFLASH EVERYONE:
GEEVILLE IS NOW AWAKENING FROM DELUSION TO REALITY

susie: “She is overly confident, she fails to see that there are a lot of things she has no grasp or knowledge of.”
I honestly see her as a clone of President Bush – a case of political acumen (Bush may have been handed the Presidency, but he earned the Texas statehouse) with no managerial capability.
Based on her record – not irrelevant fluff like the clothes or her church – I think she would be as big a disaster as President Bush. I dug deeper into my wallet for Obama after getting to know her wallet as I can no longer say with a straight face that at least both options on Nov 4 aren’t President-Bush bad. I know some conservatives for whom her selection has led them to debate two options: Not voting, or writing in Ron Paul to register a protest vote.

Just wondering? Was there a “band” that opened for Obama that brought out a crowd of 100,000 people? Everytime Obama draws a huge crowd, the Rethugs say it’s because some obscure band opened for him and they the crowed was actually were there for the free music. Well, who was it this time? What? No band, you say? Can it be 100,000 people turned out just to see Obama? But McCain has him just where he wants him, so no problem!

If Palin is the future of the GOP, I just have one thing to say
Obama 2012

IS WITHIN THE MARGIN OF ERROR IN SOME POLLS.

McCain was the only GOP candidate that could have had a chance. But rather than appealing to the middle ground Dems and Pubs, he decided to appeal to the fringe right wing radicals.
His pick of Palin was the nail in the coffin. Sure, the “base” was motivated, but the GOP base is shrinking. He needed the middle. His choice alienated us and gave the election to Obama.

Phil Gramm, McCain’s good old economic advisor slid in the last minute deregulation. From “Make Believe Maverick”:
Indeed, if the current financial crisis has a villain, it is Phil Gramm, who remains close to McCain. As chair of the Senate Banking Committee in the late 1990s, Gramm ushered in — with McCain’s fervent support — a massive wave of deregulation for insurance companies and brokerage houses and banks, the aftershocks of which are just now being felt in Wall Street’s catastrophic collapse.

McCain started losing the middle when he kowtowed to Jerry Fallwell…Palin just sealed the deal.

Hawaii SEALED the birth certificate.

Omentum, I think reality is starting to set in on geevil. I predict a transition on this website of GOP backers…It will slowly turn from, McCain is going to win, to why we are going to suffer because Obama won, to oh well, Palin in 2012…All that will trickle in over the next week.
Nov 5th we’ll all be singing, “CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES COME ON!!!” that’s a little music from Obama’s rallies…
Tomorrow night, Obama, Harbor Park in Norfolk, VA…Virginia is in the bag, ride with us or get rolled over.
O and Joe ’08; its on my bumper sticker there…

I love Governor Sarah Palin. She has tru accomplishments. She has a history, records, she is a true person.
Obama is a blank slate, except for the terrorists he associates with.
Hawaii has SEALED his birth certificate.

Avg contribution per donor: $86. The American electorate as a special interest group!!

ahhh the sweet smell of complete republican defeat/fear first thing in the morning…nothing better!!!
run for cover republican low brow scumbags ,love to watch you scurry around like the little insects you really are.

PoliticsAsUsual
Oh yeah. Go get you party shoes for Tuesday Nite.
It appears the GOP is already shooting their own right now. Such a lovely scene. I am from Northern Va. Obama was here last week . IT WAS GREAT. on a bad note Palin is here today. She is holding her rally next to all the outlets. She should be able to buy some nice clothes there.

Yup, James Garner is the only “Real Maverick” and the Republicam parts has do do’d in their own nest. I have never seen the country in the mess it’s in today and I’ve been around over 64 years. They are worried about the Dems taking over both the White House and the Congress, but it wasn’t too many years ago that he Repubs had both and totally screwed things up.

len
I am not concerned about what Palin wears.
But as a taxpayer of whom provided McCain with 80 million bucks for campaigning. Some of my hard earned money went to Palin’s wardrobe.
She is a millionaire. Tell her to buy her own clothes. She should have gotten Cindy to fix her up. I hear Cindy’s dress she wore at the convention cost 250,000 bucks.
Just one of many reasons why McCain is not a good leader. He does not think ahead. He is not Presidential at all.

8 days to go the race will be over for McCain.
Palin’s own state of Alaska newspaper endorse Obama.
The fat lady will sing in eight days.
Maybe, if John McCain was 30 years younger he might have had a chance but father time and events wasn’t on is side.

His mom was a citizen therefore that makes him a citizen…why is this still an issue…is everyone so starved for conspiracy theories that this has become such a big deal…that this man has systematically lied cheated and decieved since he was born to be president. Really…how sad it must be to be in this group and know next week Barack Obama will be elected.
All I have to say is I am looking forward to the end of the commercials, and to my tax break as a member of the 98% that will receive one under Sen. Obama’s plan
Obama in 08.

Omentum,
She is not a Millionaire.As a matter of fact of all the canidates she is the only one who is not!!!

geevil: “Rick is this a joke?”
What, are you surprised that the ‘liburl media’ has a story promoting your candidate’s last gasp attack? John McCain’s strongest chance at this point is to raise the spector of a Democratic Congress with a Democratic president.
The American people have seen the disaster of a Republican President with a Republican Congress and Big Lie tactics aren’t working when people know how they’re doing now and know which party has guided them to this point. It is very much in the GOP’s interest to try to spin their disaster as actually being caused by the Congress and President being the same party, as opposed to a disaster caused by the specific party’s/Republican’s complete sellout of conservative ideals.
This article is free advertising for John McCain and the Republican party. If you have such a deeply entrenched persecution complex that you can not see that, then it is clear how you can still believe the delusion of a liberal media (or even more absurd in the face of fact, the delusion of a fiscally responsible Republican party).

time will tell

me,
Fallwell is NOT ok. As for Rev Wright, I have to have more than one statement from one sermon to form a true opinion. This despite the fact you’d rather argue with single sentences most of which taken out of context. It’s the only way wingnuts can debate.
McCain is the biggest flip-flopper ever to run for office and Fallwell is just one example of many. The list goes on and on.

Well I guess the fact the Obama through him under the bus(wright) should be completely clear of the vial things his church spews about race and hatred to americaian whites

Jesse Jackson is calling for riots until Obama is given the white house. Is this the way an Obama administration will work, riots everytime he doesn’t get his way.

Palin is blowing chunks right now at her rally.

Support for Obama among Democrats is not surprising, but a striking development recently has been Barack Obama’s endorsement by prominent Republicans. The most notable was Colin Powell, but others include former Republican Governors, as well as Charles Fried, who was Ronald Reagan’s Solicitor General. Despite some policy differences with Obama, they have seen him as more stable, better informed, better qualified, and less impulsive on critical issues, including the nation’s economic crisis.
Possibly more important, as the election nears, some conservatives have grown terrified at the thought that Sarah Palin might become president in a complicated and dangerous world where her incompetence would put the nation at unprecedented risk. Even with the hope that a Palin presidency would never occur, that same alarm has impelled them to lose faith in the judgment of Senator McCain, based on his selection of an unqualified candidate for the second place on the ticket. It would be a mistake to confuse their preference for Obama with a permanent shift in political allegiance. At this point, their overriding concern appears to be the nation’s safety, but in future elections, their conservative philosophy is likely to dictate their voting the same was they have in the past.
Fred Moolten

I am hoping that Obama is indeed marching towards the biggest landslide victory since FDR.
But, I also think Bill Kristol is a dope. The founder of PNAC and his stupid ideas is what set his own party on the track it’s on now – to a huge loss. If the party kicked the poisonous neocons out a decade ago they would probably be doing okay now.
And the neocons have their sites set on Palin and hoping to mold her blank brain into the new Bush.
You’d think the republicans would have learned by now…
But, that is good for democrats like myself who would love to see a democratic majority and democratic president. Especially if it’s obama as president.

Presidents Kerry and Gore had poll leads very similar to Obamas.
Barak, despite all his money, can’t close and can’t buy this election
America is not ready for a socialist who they do not trust
McCain wins Penn and nearly all the Bush red states. 286+ electorial
Dewey Truman round II

Tom: You can bet what’s left of your 401(k) here: http://www.intrade.com/

Did everyone catch that “senior moment” McCain had yesterday on Meet the Press while trying to name his five endorsements?

To all McCain supporters who think the polls are wrong. Here’s your chance to make some easy money. Come on now and put your money where your mouth is:
http://www.intrade.com/

Socialism is another fear word used by the far-right wingnuts to instill fear. Actually this country has been practicing a form of socialism ever since the inception of farm and oil subsidies.

Governor Palin:
A few weeks before she was nominated for Vice-President, she told a visiting journalist—Philip Gourevitch, of this magazine—that “we’re set up, unlike other states in the union, where it’s collectively Alaskans own the resources. So we share in the wealth when the development of these resources occurs.”
Spreading the wealth doesn’t sound that bad does it…
Obama in 08.

That pipeline will most likely never be built…she failed to take care of many local issues regarding it. I would love to be able say I did something that never happened. She didn’t stop the bridge to no where either. Took the money anyways when Congress stopped the bridge due to public outcry.

Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, farm subsidies, etc….all basically socialism.

So Samurai– If you are going to accuse McCain of a “senior moment”, then what’s the excuse for Obama and Biden’s? When you are on the campaign trail, and someone asks you a question that you basically have to shift gears on when you have been discussing the economy and health care, is not uncommon.
Obama and Biden have either made some out right lies or they have early signs of Alzheimer’s.

They deserve disaster. The voters had to scream at McCain – We don’t care about Bill Ayers and we don’t care about nephew Joe and his boyfriend. Tell us about our job, our health insurance, and our pension. ………………….

His wife inherited homes, some that they allow family members to live in. That is his wife’s business that she takes care of.(They take care of their family, unlike Obama, whose family lives on $1 a month in 6 x 9 huts) He also owns some condominium rental properties, he said he wasn’t sure how many units were in the complex.
The naming the 5 endorsements, SO WHAT!! You are beating a dead horse here. Come up with something new. Biden’s problem is much more prominent, he has had 3 brain anuresyms and I’m sure the hair plugs and Botox haven’t helped.

Muslim, socialist, Hussein are all fear words. The far-right wingnuts have nothing else.

That is enough, and if it isn’t then add, unrepetent terrorist for friends like Ayers, criminal business partners like Rezko and a racist anti-american church Obama attended for 20 yrs.
Obama wouldn’t even pass a security check to be his own body guard.

Samurai–I’ve got work to do for now. If Obama is elected, I’ve decided not to work as hard and keep my income under the $250,000 mark, unless he lowers it to $42,000, which he voted to do 94 times in the Senate, in which case I’ll quit work and live off the government.I fugure I’ll come out better that way.
Peace out Oh misguided one.

Illinois State Senator Barack Obama voted 4 times against laws to protect babies who survive abortions. Meanwhile, U.S. Senators voted 98-0 for Born Alive Infant Protections. Senator Obama says deciding when babies get human rights is ABOVE HIS PAY GRADE. Tell him abortion survivors deserve legal protections too.
Senator Obama has attempted to cover up his abysmal voting record, saying that there were already protections in IL state law for babies born alive after abortions. However, existing laws had loopholes and the IL Attorney General at the time determined the practice of abandoning infants born alive during late-term abortions was NOT COVERED by the law.
Obama had several chances to close that loophole in IL law and give babies the necessary medical care they need to survive after a failed abortion, but he didn’t do it. In fact Obama voted against bills to close the loophole.
What kind of President would Obama be if he refuses to give infants basic human rights?
What kind of President? In terms of abortion—the most radical President in American history. He has already told Planned Parenthood that one of his top priorities in his administration will be signing the Freedom of Choice Act, which will essentially federalize all aspects of the abortion issue. It will ELIMINATE any restrictions at the state level, even those that have survived the scrutiny of the Supreme Court. FOCA will also repeal the Hyde Amendment and restart federal FUNDING for abortions.
Obama likes to speak in soothing tones about abortion, claiming that “no one is pro-abortion” while promising radical change on behalf of the abortion industry — which is what Planned Parenthood represents and to a large extent comprises. His record shows how radical he is. While the Illinois AG told the legislature that the existing law could not be enforced, Obama actively blocked efforts to rewrite it so that abortionists could not simply stuff living infants into closets for them to die from neglect.

FYI everyone,
Obama was born in Kenya and legally NOT allowed to be president, just like Arnold Schwarzenager(born in Europe).
Look it up on you tube under “Obama’s birth certificate” and see a DEMOCRAT’s view.

Obama was born in Kenya and legally NOT allowed to be president, just like Arnold Schwarzenager(born in Europe).

Just one of many Factchecks debunking this nonsense. This one brought to you from the Washington Post:
“The truth: Sen. Barack Obama, born in Hawaii, is a Christian family man with a track record of public service.”

It was just announced today that the Oklahoman, the largest newspaper in Oklahoma, is endorsing John McCain for president! The Oklahoman is a major newspaper. It has a circulation of all over the southwest. This election is not over yet! Go John and Sarah!

Take a little time to read this:
The Norwegian newspaper VG has reported a truly amazing story about a newly-wed trying to get to Norway to be with her husband, and the stranger who helped pay an unexpected luggage surcharge. The blog “Leisha’s Random Thoughts” has translated the story.
It was 1988, and Mary Andersen was at the Miami airport checking in for a long flight to Norway to be with her husband when the airline representative informed her that she wouldn’t be able to check her luggage without paying a 100 surcharge:
When it was finally Mary’s turn, she got the message that would crush her bubbling feeling of happiness.
-You’ll have to pay a 103 dollar surcharge if you want to bring both those suitcases to Norway, the man behind the counter said.
Mary had no money. Her new husband had travelled ahead of her to Norway, and she had no one else to call.
-I was completely desperate and tried to think which of my things I could manage without. But I had already made such a careful selection of my most prized possessions, says Mary.
As tears streamed down her face, she heard a “gentle and friendly voice” behind her saying, “That’s okay, I’ll pay for her.”
Mary turned around to see a tall man whom she had never seen before.
-He had a gentle and kind voice that was still firm and decisive. The first thing I thought was, Who is this man?
Although this happened 20 years ago, Mary still remembers the authority that radiated from the man.
-He was nicely dressed, fashionably dressed with brown leather shoes, a cotton shirt open at the throat and khaki pants, says Mary.
She was thrilled to be able to bring both her suitcases to Norway and assured the stranger that he would get his money back. The man wrote his name and address on a piece of paper that he gave to Mary. She thanked him repeatedly. When she finally walked off towards the security checkpoint, he waved goodbye to her.
Who was the man?
Barack Obama.
Twenty years later, she is thrilled that the friendly stranger at the airport may be the next President and has voted for him already and donated 100 dollars to his campaign:
-He was my knight in shining armor, says Mary, smiling.
She paid the 103 dollars back to Obama the day after she arrived in Norway. At that time he had just finished his job as a poorly paid community worker* in Chicago, and had started his law studies at prestigious Harvard university.
Mary even convinced her parents to vote for him:
In the spring of 2006 Mary’s parents had heard that Obama was considering a run for president, but that he had still not decided. They chose to write a letter in which they told him that he would receive their votes. At the same time, they thanked Obama for helping their daughter 18 years earlier.
And Obama replied:
In a letter to Mary’s parents dated May 4th, 2006 and stamped ‘United States Senate, Washington DC’, Barack Obama writes:
‘I want to thank you for the lovely things you wrote about me and for reminding me of what happened at Miami airport. I’m happy I could help back then, and I’m delighted to hear that your daughter is happy in Norway. Please send her my best wishes. Sincerely, Barack Obama, United States Senator’.
The parents sent the letter on to Mary.
Mary says that when her friends and associates talk about the election, especially when race relations is the heated subject, she relates the story of the kind man who helped out a stranger-in-need over twenty years ago, years before he had even thought about running for high office.
Truly a wonderful story, and something that needs to be passed along in the maelstorm of fear-and-smear politics we are being subjected to right now.
UPDATE: Thanks for the recommends, folks! Also, remember this was 1988, when 100 dollars was quite a bit of money, compared to today’s value.
By the way, this would be the perfect antidote to the Smear E-mails going around. If anyone has a good long email chain list, shoot it out, and let it be passed along.

What I can’t figure out with those supporting Obama is:
1. They actually buy/believe in his Leftist views on how to do things.
2. Are simply blaming the Republicans for all our problems, because the President is a Republican.
3. Have just been so brainwashed by Marxism through our media, public education system, art, film, music, etc. all they’re lives that they’re OK with the Commie stuff?
Surely all the above, but which one the most? Would be interested to know.

It’s going to be so wonderful to never have another republican president for the remainder of the lifetimes of anyone now living!

msa123,want to know why people support obama?take a good hard look at yourself,now look at the presidential candidate.Achievements in life are measured by not the company you keep,its really the individuals worth to the lives that he has made better,even when all odds are against him,preserverance and dedication is one’s ultimate character in determining if you succeed or if you fail..
what has mc cain really done for you?
redogg,get a life!!!!
