I dont care which of these too idiots wins the dem nomination, the dems will win the presidency. they will also pick up 50 seats in the house and just might end up with 60 seats in the senate.

we are looking at a pretty bleak 2 to 4 years.

Maybe 8 years if Obama is president.

well, that would really depend on a number of things.

Obama has a certain quality that just might be able to reduce the level of rankor or to shift the blame for any rankor to the other side.

that would be balanced with a very hard left approach to government. hard left policy IMHO will lead to serious economic issues....

so, while possible, not entirely a foregone conclusion.

well, like I said, Im very pessimistic today. maybe tomorrow I will be more of my old chipper self.


by the way, yesterday the dollar held its own against the Euro even though Oil hit $120. that is a pretty good sign.

the test will be thru the rest of the week. if it stays below 1.5500 we stand a good chance of seeing the dollar sub 1.50 within the next month.

Sorry for being so stupid and uninformed. Can't believe I didn't see that myself. Oh wise one who knows all, teach us that we may be able to discern truth from those evil spin doctors of the right.

(TIC alert!!):

Yea... he speaketh words of wisdom daily. He droppeth knowledge upon thine head. Like the dewdrops of the morning, like rain from the heavens, so he droppeth his wisdom upon thee.

If thou shalt be wise, hearken thou unto the words of Chris Hall. Deep wisdom floweth from his lips. Sit thou at his feet, thou silly conservative, and learn knowledge! Selah.

I was simply sharing my thoughts on the topic as presented in the subject title of the thread. Why go personal? If you see it too, just agree. Then we move on and have a discussion.

I’m also surprised to see so much pessimism among our conservative brethren. I think we’ll see that it’s the Democratic candidate who is in an uphill battle for the White House in the General election. McCain has the ability and the record to present himself far more moderate than Bush…but not as far left as the Democrats. Right now…things look pretty good for McCain. What will make or break him will be how he stands after his policies are compared to the Democratic policies. If he looks like Bush III he’s definitely doomed. But if he looks like a level headed, pragmatic leader who is willing to work with both parties to get things done he’s going to steal the show. The Democrat will come off looking ideological and extreme. McCain’s even been impressing me here and there…and according to most around here I’m a commie socialist.

Though y’all will insult me for it…those are a few of my thoughts.

Ferd,
I'm understanding, as per Star Parker. that McCain has a better health plan he has constructed and presenting.

Do you believe that McCain could pull out in the polls depending on who he picks as his VP?

my friend, mod/lib/con isnt the issue in this election. I am sorry to say the number one issue in this election is "Changy Change Change".

I honestly dont know exactly what "Changy Change Change" is but I do know that for far too many voters in this election, "Changy Change Change" is the single most important "issue".

this reflects on the poor quality of education on matters of politics this country suffers from.
