John Neish writes;
I’m stuck here in the States for the time being, and my usual rounds of errands take me through several towns in the area. One to the north and another to the east are those kinds of towns where one would go to hunt lefties, were there ever a government enlightened enough to add them to the ‘varmint’ category. The towns are insanely wealthy — Doctors, lawyers, professionals of all stripes — and both towns have a very solidly-entrenched population of ‘country-club Liberals’. In the last Presidential election both towns fairly bristled with Kerry placards, but this time around. I’ve been looking for, but so far I have not seen a single Obama poster in either town. There are posters for other Democratic candidates — no shortage of those — but none for Obama: not a single one.
Prior to the Primaries, Hillary was considered by many to be one of the most-disliked woman in the US. Negative polls — those that ask you ‘who do you *dislike* the most’ (as opposed to ‘who do you *like* the most’) — had her in the upper numbers. Even so, Obama had to really work hard to beat her. Now, of course, she’s a figure of pity because of the shabby way that the little twerp has treated her. He even announced his choice of Biden in a text message sent out at three in the morning: anyone who doesn’t think that that was a dig at her for her ‘phone call at three a.m.’ advert deserves to be sold the Brooklyn Bridge (or maybe even the ‘Bridge to Nowhere’).
So, you heard it here first: being barely able to beat a person who at that time was not very regarded, and now being absent from the thickets of Democrat placards in these upscale towns with a well-establish Democrat presence, I predict that he’s going to get whomped in a big way come election day.
It couldn’t happen to a nicer guy.
So where are these pollsters getting the figures showing the Big O winning everything? Nevermind.It’s a moot question.
“where are the pollsters getting the figures showing the Big O winning everything?”
Polls are always commissioned by someone. Either the candidate or the media and the media is of course biased.
McCain will win the US Presidency without breaking a sweat and there’s nothing that Charles Gibson can do about it.
Yay!
I think that socially liberal Dems realize that their hard-earned, judiciously invested dollars aren’t exactly safe with Obama at the helm of the U.S. Ship of State.
I mean, what kind of portfolio do you have with only three years of experience as a Senator? We all know that “community organizer” doesn’t bring the kind of executive experience needed to be the POTUS.
‘Just hope there aren’t riots when John McCain and Sarah Palin win.
That’s a very interesting, insightful comment from Mr. Neish. Let’s hope that these towns of which he speaks are pretty representative of middle and upper-middle class Leftyvilles all over America. I’m optimistic that come January, it’ll be “President McCain” and “Vice President Palin”.
Stumbled across an interesting clue to the radical left, as embodied in today’s Democratic Party.
The key to understanding the ‘community organizer’ mystery is a man named Saul Alinsky, who is acknowledged as the first community organizer.
Curiously, he’s from Chicago. His first book is dedicated to the first radical who organized the world – Lucifer.
Hillary Clinton wrote her university thesis on the man.
When Donna Brazile made the claim on CNN that Jesus (Obama) was a community organizer and Pontius Pilate (Sarah Palin) was a governor, I was perplexed.
So, I asked members of my congregation and my priest if it was their understanding that Jesus was a community organizer.
All looked at me like I’d gone goofy and said ‘no.’
Thank God for the internet. It will help those willing to do the research to expose the true nature of these dangerous elitists.
Yes, “whomped in a big way.” When I read that Zero was talking to MacGovern, my first thought was “He wants to know how to lose 48 states?”
Gallup daily tracking is down to 2 pts for McCain. Let’s not get too confident. Even though Obama should be up by 8 by all rights. It will come done to the debates.
The McCain campaign has to get more focused. IMO.

Without ABC’s donkey -like editing.
I only caught a bit in passing about Charles Gibson’s interview with Sarah Palin.
The main message seemed to be that Palin was all ready to go to war with Russia.
A look at the above link will show how, yet again, the MSM manufactured the news.
I tire of the partisan tripe bloating both N. American elections, however I cannot deny I am transfixed by the drama.
I’ve seen nothing in Palin’s character or history that makes her any less qualified to be “on deck” for the Commander and Chief position than most before her. And as I watch the polls reverse as Obama tarnishes his once shiny image by going negative on an old war hero, I think maybe there is hope for the US yet.
Also,when I look at Bill Clinton’s legacy of unfaithfulness and coverup, I wonder how the dems could so strongly criticize Palin’s past.
Partisan blindness is a terrible, terrible affliction.
Please give generously.
CO:
They need to discredit those who are the biggest threat to them.
Self-made, independent-minded people are a threat to the marxists, whose ‘community organizer’ guerilla tactics in the US were first articulated by Chicagoan Saul Alinsky.
The purpose of the ‘community organizers,’ such as Al Sharpton, was not to better the life of people, but to organize foot soldiers to create a bloodless revolution by working within the system.
It all makes such perfect sense to me now that I have read up Alinsky’s motives and the master he willingly revealed he serves in the foreword of his book.
It’s well worth your while to do the research on this yourself to see how they’ve used gloom-and-doom as a means to an end.
It seems the eyes of the US voter are also being opened the more Palin, a average hockey mom who’s not that much different than most of the average middle class, is being savaged by the elites … who have taken over the media and the universities.
Saw one interesting poll, where the US Congress race is closing quickly with momentum on the Republican side.
Congress enjoys a single-digit approval rating, much lower than Bush’s approval rating.
I’m starting to believe there’s hope for the North American continent as the sentiment against tax-and-spend solutions is falling into disfavour.
The comparison re Jesus and Pontius, perhaps those making that claim should read the rest of the story. If McCain/Palin win on Nov 4, it will be a repeat. The difference is Zero will not rise in three days.
I am in the Philly suburbs and the strength of Obama does not compare to Kerry’s strengh in 2004. There are far more McCain signs than Obama signs.
I brought up the Jesus was a community organizer thing in my adult Sunday School class and the unanimous decision was that Jesus was apolitical, when asked about the Romans he always had an answer and it was not what the people wanted to hear.
Folks read your bibles and then talk to us Christians, we get it. He is not of this earth, etc.
I agree Kate & said so hear BEFORE Palin. You can only keep a con going until they are on to you.
Just drove through Quebec City. A lot, a lot of blue signs there.
With any luck Ron, the Quebecers are realizing that Harper is an adult, and wants to run the company called Canada in an adult fashion. He no longer can stand the childish blockheads taking federal money while trying to stuff Canada, he can no longer put up with the constant “scandals” like we the electorate have been fed for two and a half years! Grow up Canada and vote Harper in with a landslide and watch Canada prosper. The most fun will be watching CBC pigs grovel.
I am pretty sure Obama bin Biden is going to carry Vermont in a big way.
Jesus was a community organizer? That’s odd, because every Christmas liberals claim he was a homeless person.
One simply has to recall that The One has promised to greatly increase capital gains taxes as well as raising the marginal tax rate on those with incomes in excess of $250k to roughly 60% – otherwise known as a massive hit on the people who live in the neighbourhoods in question.
marginal tax rate on those with incomes in excess of $250k to roughly 60%, add the 10% tax here in Vermont, and I might as well not go to work.
My small Southern city is 63 1/2% black, according to the last census, but so far, the one and only Obama yard sign I’ve seen…
…got replaced with a Ron Paul a month ago.
And tropical storm Fay blew that one away.
A handful of various Obama bumperstickers… but the “I’m voting for Sarah” on my truck has, so far, gotten nothing but waves, horn honks, and thumbs up…
No fists or fingers… yet…

Ryan,
Wow! Philly not for Obama, its all over. The Clinton’s must be running a “Black Shaft”, she won PA easy. I lived in Cherry Hill (across the River) and if McCain wins Philly it will be unusual, to say the least.
The heavy hitting hasn’t even started….Philly style.
