I wouldn't vote for Bush again if he was the last presidential candidate on the face of the planet.

Sincerely, I DO NOT believe that this race is a done deal for Mr. Obama anyway. I am convinced that many of his supporters will simply not vote and most of the people who will not vote for him are silent.

Honestly, he has many things going against him.
Yeah....like no genuine birth certificate.

The Scenario Obamamaniacs Refuse to Consider:


August 2, 2008


As it turns out,there is a way to render the most vocal Obamamaniac speechless: Ask if the possibility - however slight, however remote - of their candidate losing is something that may have ever, for the briefest moment, crossed their mind.


"I hadn't even thought about it," says Brooklynite Jeff Strabone, who has gone so far as to adopt Obama's middle name, Hussein, as his own. ("I thought, 'Let's make it an asset - like, "I am Spartacus!' "). Strabone was planning to keep the Hussein through election day, but if Obama loses, "I may have to keep it a little longer."

Also, he would cry: "That's what I'll do. It would mean the country wants to go backwards, towards fear, anti-intellectualism. I don't know . . . I don't even want to think about it." "It's funny - I hadn't even thought about it once," says Jake Abraham, who has produced events for the Obama campaign.

FULL ARTICLE: http://www.nypost.com/seven/08022008...es__122685.htm

Below is an email I received. It is obviously referring to Obama and one that I think is well written.

“An open Letter from the Preacher”
by Dr. Hilton Sutton

“My son, (reverently) fear the Lord and the king, and do not associate with those who are given to change (of allegiance, and are revolutionary) for their calamity shall rise suddenly, and who knows the punishment and ruin which both (the Lord and the king) will bring upon (the rebellious).” Proverbs 24:21-22 (amp bible)

Today a strong political call for change is being made throughout our land. However, no clear definition of this change has been established. What we hear is a clarion call for socialism, the opposite of a Republic.

Our Pledge of Allegiance states; “I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.”

We are and were created a Republic, not a democracy. We are a Republic that operates as a democracy. Our nation, although young, has the longest running history of government of any nation. Because we are a God-Fearing Republic, we are the most BLESSED nation on this planet. If that were not so, then why are tens of thousands from many countries trying to relocate here; even through illegal means.

Our founding fathers were God fearing men. Because of excessive taxation, without representation and legalistic state supported religion they braved the unknown, fought and established this nation built on Judeo Christian Law and Christianity.

The present call for change is for a return to what our forefather’s turned from, to form, “a more perfect union, to establish justice, insure domestic tranquilly, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the Blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, to ordain and established the constitution for the United States of America.” If you are a God fearing person, VOTE your righteousness.

The coming presidential election is critical. As a voter, you must VOTE! Use good sense and your heart, not political emotions. Be very careful for whom you vote. Socialism requires huge governmental control of ones daily living.

And if he wins weend up in a different hell instead. Sorry but even my 18 year old, who has become VERY politically minded, has decided that if Obama wins the USA is headed down a very bad road. I had nothing to do with him making his decisions. He has studied the candidates for himself.

If Obama loses it will be 4 years free from the Democratic demons that think they know what is RIGHT for me and my family, and four more years of me being able to think for myself and do for myself.

Oh lordy, just had a bad thought.
Democrats are like ultra-con Pentecostals. They all know what is better for us than God does or we do ourselves.
You libs better run from the Demo's with all your might or you will really be uc before to long.

Yeah, as a general rule, if one of those gazillion propaganda emails actually peaks my interest, my first stop is snopes so that I am not repeating lies.

Re: What If Obama Loses?

The Florida Recount of 2000 will look like a bi-partisan Ice Cream Social in comparison.

There will be endless claims of voter fraud, election fraud, conspiracy theories about ballots, poll workers, Diebold Corporation ballot machines, etc.

There might even be a jolly riot or two.

Or not.
