Quote from William Rennick:
By the way, I wouldn't be betting anything more then pocket change on Obama winning. McCain will get all of the normal Repub votes, split the independs, and scalp more old school Dems than are showing up in the polls. These elections are normally decided by a razor thin margin. Conservative estimates are that 6% of Dems won't vote for him because he's black, my guess is more like 20%. Unless pictures of McCain surface dressed liked Mrs.Doubtfire, this will be a lay up for the GOP. This country isn't ready for some Soul in the White House, Obama won't be prez this time, not yet, it's Big Macs turn. Take it to the bank Fellas.
Rennick out
sorry but.... you might know about crystal balls.... but you dont know a thing about politics.
people do not want to continue with republicans in the white house. The country's political atmosphere has changed since Bush got elected.
This election will not be about who has more experience.
This election will not be about who has a better grasp on foreign affairs.
This election will not be about who has a better understanding of the economy.
This is election is about change. About who can bring the most change that is different.
That is why, a noob senator liberal black man with zero experience is ahead on the polls from an established, experienced military hero.
Think about it.
Next month, the greatest political historical event since the civil war will occur in our country.
Rejoice, for you are alive to be part of it. Think of the millions that didnt live to see this day, and the other millions that will only be able to read about it in a book or futuristic news hologram .
Make no mistake about it , Obama will be elected President of the United States next month.
LOL Duck, that's the easy call. It won't even be that close. McCain will win by a bigger margin than Bush did over Kerry.
Rennick out
'Change for change's sake' is a really dumb decision making stratagem.
This is great !!
For all you people who say Palin is fit to be VP....watch this. She makes Bush seem like a genius. Either she is a complete moron....or she doesnt know the answer. Either way...she comes off looking like the area where her brain should be is filled with rocks .

PALIN WINS BIG WITH A REAGAN-LIKE FLAIR
By DICK MORRIS & EILEEN MCGANN
"Last night was a big, big win for Sarah Palin.
She showed originality, charisma and sass - a style that is refreshing and different in our politics. She didn't just win the vice-presidential debate, she showed that she belongs with Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton as among the best communicators of our modern political times.
Her sallies against big government were brilliantly conceived and well executed. Her line that she didn't understand how Washington worked because politicians vote for something right after they vote against it, for example, was just wonderful.
Another classic came when she bit back at moderator Gwen Ifill and opponent Joe Biden and said she'd answer the questions as she wanted to, not necessarily as they wanted her to do.
Gone, long gone, are the worries about how good or well-prepared Sarah Palin is.
Most important, she showed how John McCain would bring change to Washington. Would that McCain could articulate his own sense of change as well as his running mate did!
For his part, Biden sounded like the warmed-over has-been that he is - he seemed to be on downers. Where she was thrilling and exciting, he was hypnotically boring. He seemed like more of the same, while she seemed like a breath of fresh air.
Without trepidation, she tossed aside the Bush years and spoke of the "blunders" in Iraq. She was able to skewer Wall Street and show Republican opposition to the greed there.
She even handled Biden very well on his turf, foreign policy - meeting him head-to-head on every issue, and winning.
Everyone realizes that Palin has been in this field for only five weeks; her ability, nonetheless, to prevail against a veteran like Biden is a testament to her intellect and skill.
That smiling face, those novel phrases, that informal style - it was all a pleasure and a refreshing change.
And she got her ticket off on the right foot for October - making the tax issue stick and zinging Barack Obama's economic programs and his big-spending plans.
The Alaska governor did a wonderful job of displaying her experience and justifying her candidacy in terms of her expertise on energy issues. It's now far harder to dismiss her as an unqualified flake.
More, she connected in a way that few politicians do: She speaks for us.
Palin did a lot to help McCain last night - illustrated the best about him. But she did more to help herself - vaulting to a leading role among women in American politics. Her authenticity and unique style will be with us for years to come.
Last night's Palin victory will have an immediate impact on the presidential race - arresting McCain's fall and slowing Obama's surge.
The only question is whether it will be enough to reverse Obama's gains of the past week. It might go a long way in that direction."

Governor Palin Wins V.P. Debate
"The liberal media snickers at the prospect of a Gov. Palin debate win. Unmistakable bias as they write off Sarah Palin's chances. The very same liberal media who snickered at the idea that Fannie Mae was corrupt and not financially sound as reported by Republicans in 2004.
"Underestimate her at your peril": that's the message sneaking its way out as Sarah Palin prepares to face Joe Biden in tomorrow's vice-presidential debate.
"She has a Reagan-like ability to win over audiences," says former opponent, Andrew Halcro.
She has the respect of her formal political rival, Eric Croft, who says "The political landscape here (in Alaska) is littered with people who have underestimated Sarah Palin."
Palin is a Qualified, Accomplished Experienced Leader.
Governor Sarah Palin is to be admired as an accomplished leader, legislator, administrator and reformer. She is an intelligent woman that is an example for everyone to respect as a role model.
Governor Sarah Palin made history on Dec. 4, 2006, when she took office. As the 11th governor of Alaska, as the first woman to hold that office, she has been a leader:
⢠Alaska invested $5 billion in state savings, overhauled education funding, and implemented the Senior Benefits Program that provides support for low-income older Alaskans.
⢠Created Alaska's Petroleum Systems Integrity Office
⢠Created Climate Change Subcabinet for Alaska.
⢠Overhauled the state's ethics laws
⢠Developed a competitive process to construct a gas pipeline.
⢠Chaired the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission.
⢠Chaired the National Governor's Association (NGA) Natural Resources Committee,
⢠Served two terms on the City Council and two terms as the mayor/manager of Wasilla.
⢠Chaired the Alaska Conservation Commission.
⢠Presided over the Alaska Conference of Mayors.
The Debate Media Bias
The liberal media has chuckled and snorted over Palin's public utterances so far. Almost unbelievably Gwen Ifill was picked to moderate Thursday's vice presidential debate. Her bias is clear as her new book lauds Barack Obama. If Barack wins the presidency Ifill stands to gain financially. It will help her book sell if she can make Mr. Obama look good. This is a huge conflict of interest the media just overlooks.
Even Biden is not happy with the Democratic Ticket! Is Biden Qualified? He is not even sure Mr. Obama is qualified.
Joe Biden is a lose cannon that should not be turned loose on the U.S. or the world. Biden said"Mr. Obama was not qualified" to be president. Then Biden said that perhaps Senator Barack Obama should have chosen someone else as his running mate. "Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me." He even mused about Mr. Obama his running mate saying: "I mean, you got the first mainstream African American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy." Does he even think before he speaks?
Can Biden be trusted to tell the truth?
Recently when he was in Afghanistan he said "The superhighway of terror between Pakistan and Afghanistan is where my helicopter was forced down." Not true it was just diverted.
This is more like a fishing story than the truth and what happened it is not exactly what Biden tells. The tall tale was exposed for the ruse it is, a misleading tale pumped up to make his Afghanistan visit seem more dangerous than it really was.
Plagiarism, Insults, Gun Control and Racism. Biden quotes abound.
⢠"You cannot go to a 7-11 or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I'm not joking."
⢠He seems to agree with Alcee Hastings (D-Fl), a man impeached, convicted and removed from office as a federal judge who said; "Anybody toting guns and stripping moose don't care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks." He has not denounced Hastings.
⢠Way back in 1988, Biden ran for president but was forced to quit for a unique reason: he simply copied parts of a speech by a British politican, Neil Kinnock, and changed some parts to make it sound like it was about him.Saying "Why is it that Joe Biden is the first in his family ever to go a university?..."
⢠Insulting a fellow American when a gun owner asked where the candidates stood on gun control, saying he wanted to know if his "babies" would be safe. "This is my baby," the man said on the video, showing off his Bushmaster AR-15. "I'll tell you what," Mr. Biden replied. "If that is his baby, he needs help."
Alan Gottlieb President of CCRKBA said of Biden "And now we are supposed to believe that Joe Biden is a gun-toting defender of the Second Amendment, after years of trying to dismantle it," Gottlieb concluded. "This guy has spent a career in Washington, D.C. assaulting the civil rights of gun owners. Now he's insulting their intelligence."
Mr. Obama Defends Biden
Mr. Obama himself has defended Biden, telling NBC last week, "I am very proud of the choice that I made."
David Wade, Biden's spokesman, defended his boss's "straight talk," adding: "Unlike other campaigns that sequester running mates, we'll proudly continue to unleash Joe Biden to be Joe Biden."
Yes, Biden's very knowledgeable and dedicated. But to win the presidency, you actually have to be good at mass politics. Why is Biden not smart enough to recognize that?
We MUST continue to get the word out about Mr's. Obama and Biden his lack of courage, leadership and common. His ties to terrorists like William Ayers, a man who once said, "Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, kill your parents, that's where it's really at" are appalling. A man who bombed the Pentagon and doesn't regret it. And the man who almost single-handedly launched Barack Obama's political career.
The major media have already decided who their candidate is! MSNBC host Chris Matthews says Barack Obama makes a "thrill" go up his leg when he hears him speak and NBC runs vulgar ads about John McCain. ... "
