Gimme a break! Everything in this country is bass akwards!

Then you wrote: “Or…” – IrishEi on October 13, 2008 at 3:51 PM

I’d rather not discuss that.

Sarah Palin will be elected president in 2012.

ManlyRash on October 13, 2008 at 3:45 PM

Heh, Hillary, not lorien, will need a cardiologist.

You wrote: “Sarah Palin will be elected president in 2012.”

I read: “…after she completes McCain’s unfinished term.”

Then you wrote: “Or…”

I’m telling you—evil twin.

May you and Jim Treacher be right.

Let ‘em know your card request.

“Horrific times r here”? Just like Rosie would say.

“Obama: trick or trick”?

kareyk on October 13, 2008 at 3:31 PM

Agreed.

I hope, dare I say it, optimism on this site has made my heart grow 3 times bigger this day. – lorien1973 on October 13, 2008 at 3:01 PM

Then I suggest you see a cardiologist immediately.

In other words, I think the only way we’re going to see Sarah Palin as POTUS is if McCain loses… – IrishEi on October 12, 2008 at 11:15 AM

Or does not opt for a second term. Or…

Is this you being cordial, just guessing, or is that another actual prediction along the lines of your “McCain is going to win” certainty?

Sarah Palin will be elected president in 2012.

Old people behave erratically. I know my mom is 90. So there is a big underlying doubt created about health, age, mental health etc. Brillant really, especially since they got away with it.

In 2012 Sarah Palin will be elected as the 45th president of the U.S.

(Please say the latter, please please please please please…)

*eats*

Someone explain to me how it is a “safer” choice to be under the rule of President B.O. for four years, as opposed to having McCain calling the shots.

And I suggest you make it one heck of a convincing explanation.

Here’s part of a post I made yesterday when I was in a better mood. Hope it helps.

I will be holding my nose and voting for McCain on 11/4 because I love my country…

But over these last few weeks I have been increasingly troubled by that tiny little voice in my head that’s telling me that a McCain presidency will destroy the conservative brand forever. After 8 years of the pseudo-conservative Bush, and another 4 of pseudo-conservative McCain, the country will swing overwhelmingly to the Democrats in order to rid themselves of what they perceive to be “conservative” malfeasance.

As a result, beginning in 2012 we will suffer perhaps 16 years of extreme leftist governance with the likes of Obama and/or Clinton from which this country may never recover.
Palin, Jindal, DeMint, and all the other true conservatives will be swept into the dustbin of history.

On the other hand, if Obama wins, my guess is that by the time the 2010 mid-term elections roll around, the country will be so fed up with his socialist redistribution of wealth, America-bashing, and diminished national security that true conservatives will reap the rewards of markedly increased numbers in the House and Senate, and quite possibly a majority in both. This scenario could set the stage for a landslide for a real conservative in the 2012 Presidential.

In the first scenario (a McCain win) the GOP will only hold onto the presidency for 4 years and the chances are fairly decent that no one on the SCOTUS will die in that short period of time. However, it is nearly certain that one or more will die during the 16 years of leftist rule that will surely follow McCain’s tenure.

In the second scenario, we only have to hope and pray that members of the SCOTUS keep kickin’ for about two years. By then (the midterms) I think there will be enough opposition in Congress to block any judicial activists that would be nominated.

In other words, I think the only way we’re going to see Sarah Palin as POTUS is if McCain loses…

BHO is only a threat to the US- not our enemies and they all know it.

Don’t make too much extra- you will be paying higher taxes as it is. there will no incentive to work harder or make more money.

Never fear: Eeyorepundit will make it shrivel by day’s end.

I second this motion.

Unfortunately, I think that means we have to have a poll.

We’ll see, kayak.

McCain is going to win this election. I’m more certain now than ever before – and the fact that I am neither overjoyed nor relieved at the prospect of his victory, convinces me even more that I am right.

That’s pretty much where I’m at. Maybe it’s simple spite, but they’re a little too strenuous about insisting it’s all over and I’m not buying it. My gut tells me they’re really worried and they’re trying to psyche me out. Well, I’ve got enough psyche for both of us.

And I don’t see what’s in it for me to start moaning about how it’s over, and we’re all gonna live in Oceania with Winston Smith, and boo-hoo-hoo. Does Hallmark make a “Congratulations, You Were Right About the Guy You Don’t Like Winning the Election” card?

As for me blogging in more places, let me know who’s paying. I might need to line something up here pretty soon.
