Good, then we agree that the Gitmo-closing, waterboarding-banning, global warming socialist nut McCain should not be president.

You mean Old Chicago isn’t real pizza? They had me fooled.

Thats not really Pizza.. that “average”.

Yep, could be a compelling reason for VP Pawlenty.

So you are willingly going to help Obama win?

If McCain can put Minnesota, Michigan, and Pennsylvania in play, the Democrats are dead in November.

not sure about that… McCain is pandering to the middle of the roaders.. not really the kind of poeple to feel strongly one way or another, i.e. give money to to..

he won’t necessarily win with it.. but he can’t lose without it..

3 of the things I disagree on with McCain is immigration, economics, and ‘Climate change’.

should I still vote for him.. those seem kinda big issues..

Are you from Philly?
I’m in MN from “The Chicagoland Area” And I’m still looking for “real pizza” in MN. >:{

Olympian needs to figure in the fact that all primaries thus far were held BEFORE the Jeremiah Wright story broke. Outside the African-American vote, Obama won’t get the same kind of turnout in future primaries, due to formerly “hopeful” white voters who might identify with Obama’s grandmother.

As for Obama holding Kerry’s states in the general election, Rasmussen already has polls showing McCain beating Obama in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Washington state, all of which were won by Kerry in 2004. Obama is also far behind in Ohio and Florida, which Democrats would have to win to win the Presidency.

Keep your caboose hinged to the Jeremiah Wright story and you are in for a BIG let down. The War in Iraq (well over 60% against), the economy, gas prices, etc. are going to be the issue the election is decided upon. Add that to Obama’s ability to organize and GOTV and you have a landslide win. Go ahead a take comfort in polls right now. Once the Democrats have a nominee and Obama’s folks get down to business you are going to see a turnout that is going to have significant downticket impact in congressional, Senate, state and local races. If Obama is the Democratic nominee the Republicans will lose Wayne Allard’s Senate seat here in Colorado and Marilyn Musgrave’s House seat. This is going to happen all across the country.

As I posted in another thread, straw poll from our support team here at work. 3 Obama, 1 Green Party, 4 McCain (3 of them are not FOR McCain, but against Hillary or Obama), 2 Libertarian Party, 2 Constitution Party (I’m one of these votes).

In 2004 the breakdown from this same group was 4 Kerry, 7 Bush and 1 Libertarian Party.

Of my brothers and sister in 2004 it was a 5 vote sweep for Bush. This year it’s going to be 2 for McCain, 1 Constitution Party (me), 1 Libertarian Party and my sister is voting for Obama (and volunteering).

Also keep an eye on the polls over at Free Republic. McCain is NOT going to get at least 10% of the support that President Bush received in 2004. It may end up being closer to 15%.

As for Obama holding Kerry’s states in the general election, Rasmussen already has polls showing McCain beating Obama in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Washington state, all of which were won by Kerry in 2004. Obama is also far behind in Ohio and Florida, which Democrats would have to win to win the Presidency.

In addition to recent good reports out of New Hampshire, Michigan and Pennsylvania, Ed Morrissey at Hot Air points to the new Rasmussen data that shows that Minnesota, the state that currently has the longest active run voting for Democrats in Presiden…

Wait until one of them, Obama or Hillary loses(even if one is selected as a VP, they are still the loser) and some of their supporters are going to be upset and vote third party or vote for McCain.

That’s a tough one. First, Bush is not hostile to Christians as he is one. I’m not sure what McCain is and neither is he.

Valiant on March 21, 2008 at 2:00 PM

One does NOT forgive people that torture you for YEARS on end for no reason.

Valiant you need to go play somewhere else, as your name does not apply to you.

Obama’s ties to the Nation of Islam and Louis Farrakhan through “Rev.” Wright may be dovetaling into this fear of Islamization.

Even on the one or two things I agree with McCain about, I disagree how he plans to achieve the goals. We’re a long way from 70% in agreement.

Please explain to me in what way McCain is worse for conservatism than GW Bush?

Bush tried to redefine conservatism to meet his compassionate big government agenda. McCain would be worse because he has made it clear he does not want or need conservative support to take the White House. If he wins, he will spitefully take it out of our hides. He hate conservatives more than he hates the New York Times.

Excuse my lack of glee, but conservatism is dead in November no matter who wins.
