I'm not worried one bit. It's no secret the media is steering this election in a direction that could put a junior senator with a 172 days of experience in office. Should this become reality, I predict that in addition to being known as the first black president, Obama will also hold the honor of worst president ever elected since this country was founded.

Where do you come up with this stuff, Mike?

I realize you are as stuck with her as you are McCain. Unlike me, you robotically support the party that has abandoned you. They are counting on that on November 4 and you will certainly oblige....but, jeez. You are not obligated to repeat the mantra here...It's okay. No one will snitch on you.

Should Obama manage to get elected he will be so beholden to those that pushed him into office that there will be numerous players holding the strings to control the empty suit.

He is a totally unserious candidate and it says more about the bankruptcy of leadership in the Democratic party than anything else.

This debate wasn't lost or won based on anything verbal between the two. It was simply won on nonverbal communication. And the winner was clearly Sarah Palin. She definitely held her own in this debate and (if elected) she is going to be one hot VP.

And should McCain get elected...he will have no party in Congress backing him. He is an Independent...a maverick, remember? Will four years of gridlock at a time of war and economic disaster help anyone?

No robots here James.

She is was she is. Honest, gutsy, moral, reformer and conservative.

That seems to bother you as much as it does the feminists and other liberals.

Why shouldn't I support her candidacy?

She better that the #1 spot on the ticket and several orders of magnitude above the the opposing party's also rans.

He won't have any trouble over the war.

As for the rest, "gridlock" in Washington is usually a god thing.

Although a McCain presidency is too much of a longshot, at this point, to seriously consider....I would see it as a duplication of a "Jimmy Carter" era.

Obama is far more likely to be a second Carter.

Same party.
Same politics
Same liberal government is the solution and do gooder mentality
Even less leadership experience
Even less foreign policy experience
etc.
etc.
etc.

Drudge

28% BIDEN 100,946
70%
PALIN 250,211
2% NEITHER 6,150

Total Votes: 357,307

Pretty big numbers.
And if you don't think liberals avoid Drudge you have a screw loose.

AOL Poll - Sarah Palin Won Debate
http://webcenter.polls.aol.com/modul...&pollId=152822

Drudge Poll - Sarah Palin Won Debate
http://drudgereport.com/

Biden has 30 years of experience and could not win a clear victory against Sarah?

I think Sarah did extremely well for her first nationwide debate.

But the best thing is - she is not a Washington insider who is afraid to take on the
corruption inside the beltway and on wall street.

I have yet to hear ANY interNACHI member brag on Obama.
No one is willing to tell me they are proud of Obama.

WHY? He is a sleaze bag and they know it.

Also, if we have a major outbreak of tension in the middle east and the threat
of world war... ie Isreal bombs the hell out of Iran, then is everyone going
to think about baby face Obama or the seasoned veteran McCain for security?

That would only hold true if you watched the debate with the sound off.

Good point, life is best when they are screwing each other over instead of the public, still I can't vote for McCain/Palin when McCain looks to be in need of life support.
