Is McCain Throwing Away The Election ?

A bit more than just yes or no to help scope in why we feel that McCain is may or may not be squandering the election.

Talk to any 70+ year old - it is rare they rant & rave & play dirty. It was not part of their generation unless you happened to be Japanese & attacked America or were Nazi's that attacked Europe etc. It must be a highly emotional item & a threat to our homeland & way of life to awaken them (sometimes not recognizing the danger is a problem !!).

If they really knew the true BHo & what his platform is, they may feel differently. Most of the time they are strictly party voting people because that's how they were raised. Issues don't matter - it's the party.

BHo's latest platform is "We can't screw things up any worse!". What a crock of Sh__!

Yes, I do wish McCain would tear BHo apart both in public, his campaign speeches & the debates (at least the last one). It probably will not happen due to his being a 'Gentleman'. Unfortunetely neither will the news media & that is the root of the problem.

Considering that his Father and Grand Father were both Admirals, and he was a Vn. era Naval Aviator and POW he spent at least 50 years being exposed to the reality of the communist menace. That being said, for him to NOT rip Obama a new bunghole verges on cowardice.
I'm voting for Palin, McCain is just baggage she has to drag along.

I second that comment.

Some people say if you get down with a pig then you join pigs you get mud on you.  But I say a liar (BHO) and a Marxist-Socialist must be not go unchallenged.  The only people who will say got mud on you are their pigs or your own crowd of elitists....lies & deceit must be vigorously exposed by any means available. 

There are way too many people out their who don't get it with anything less than a vigorous defense....or have "you" (not you but those who McCain with their eyes closed) not seen the presidential polls.  How else could a lying, Marxist, God-hating, anti-american, gun grabber be a viable candidate for president?

I hope the lack of interest in this poll is not indicative of the voting trends in a few weeks. We may be in deeper trouble than we think. Let's face it - people are sick & tired of the BS from this election cycle. Everyone I've talked to says they just wish it was over. Nobody's listening anymore & it appears that BHo has won.

My assumption is that we need to fast forward to the election & see what kind of apathy there is.

If you haven't seen the latest video against BHo, try this:

Pretty close to my thoughts.

McCain is doing a pretty good job of taking the high road in a society that no longer honors the high road.

Mr. McCain brought a knife to a gun fight - Doesn't matter whether your the better guy or not when your not fighting on the same level.

I've never even considered McCain to be conservative. He's more like the "Blue Blood Republicans" of old. If the dems weren't controlled by the new version of the National Socialist, I'd vote for them before the Blue Bloods. As it is, my choices are bad and worse. Yes, I'm well aware of the Libertarian option, but, they can't get enough votes to control a city council, much less the congress or the country.

Before you condemn the "Blue blood Republicans" you might want to think about Teddy Roosevelts roots.
