I have no illusions about McCain. But I’m utterly clear that Obie is not ready for prime-time in a serious, dangerous world.

If you actually care about his dubious “heroism”, and think being captured by the enemy makes you presidential material, then you’re thinking with your yellow-ribbon bumper sticker and not your brain. If you think he has ANY principles or policies that he won’t abandon like his crippled first wife, then you’re just purely making it up, since there is absolutely no real evidence to support such a view.

Why can’t McCain seal the deal? He’s been in D.C. for 26 years (when he says our current energy problems are 30 years in the making, hmm), he openly boasts that the media is his constituency and they sure as hell act the part with their fawning over his made-up “maverick” pseudopersona, and he has name recognition approximately that of Pringles. Why is he stuck below 50%? Why can’t he reach out beyond the Bush personality cult dead-enders, the extremely elderly, and people who believe forwarded emails from Paypal-at-aol.co telling them to input all their security information?

A fascinating description. Me thinks the same could be said of the McCain apologists as well. Only difference is that they are not supporting their candidate out of enthusiasm, but out of fear.

Yes they are. The worst nominee in a generation from either party. Every single last one of his supporters has decided to throw common sense out of the window. Some KNOW he’s unqualified and just wont admit it … others are just dumb-as-rocks ignorant fools led off the cliff by the Pied Piper (Axelrod Productions).

“I mean, what kind of intellectual could possibly support a man who has a clear plan to reduce our negative impact on the environment,”

Check your tire pressure - I think that bogus statement has been deflated. Obama has no clear plan. He criticized an Energy bill he voted for, he supports the horrible cap-and-trade idea, and he goes arond saying false Goronic things like ‘the earth is warming’ when in fact 2008 temperatures are lower now than they were 20 years ago. he’s against real solutions like nuclear power, and for bogus expensive lies like putting $100 billion into non-competitive alternative energy.

” fix our unbalanced tax system,”
That would be McCain. What is unbalanced in a system where the top 1% are paying over 40% of income taxes is *NOT* to increase the payroll tax, increase the capital gains tax, increase the income tax and use it to add *MORE* welfare system payment subsidies in EITC. Obama’s proposals are going to be deadly to the economy.
The right thing to do is to follow McCain’s prescription.

” and end the pointless, deadly Bush/McCain adventure in Iraq? ”
deadly for AQ, pointless to bash a war that Bush has already won, usin the surge stategy that McCain correctly prediected would work and which Obama wrongly said would not.

“Obviously, anyone who would get behind ideas like those is not thinking for themselves, am I right?”

No, you are an idiot. So far you brought up the issues of taxes, where obama is a horrible leftwing taxhiking extremist who would send us into recession, and Iraq, where Obama had pathetically wrong judgement about how to approach it.

If these are your reasons to support Obama, you are whacked.

” George Soros must be buying them all out.”

Well he bought obama, and he’s bought the leftosphere (Media Matters). Maybe he bought you out and you just dont know it.

“Now Grandpa McGrumpypants, there’s a guy that stimulates the ol’ gray matter.”
Really, that’s no way to talk about such fine Senators as Sen Byrd and Sen Lautenburg, in their 80s.

” Jumping around from position to position”
Yeah, flipflops on FISA, lies about campiagn finance,
“, justifying his pander-ific positions”
… supporting ethanol … oh wait, that’s all obama.

” and getting owned by Paris Hilton must take some serious brain power.”
Funny, it was paris who reiterated the McCain energy policy as her own. We want ALL of the above.

” Honestly, what person in their right mind wouldn’t be thrilled with 100 more years of our 18 yr olds dieing in some desert”
- Reached for the slander already? You know thats a lie.
” for John “my wife’s a c**t” McCain? ”
- And now a foul-mouthed slander too.

“As for John Stewart, have you even seen his interviews… ”
ROFLMAO - Thanks for making the authors point!

“So if we’re talking about a dearth of intelligence in one camp or another,..”

Geeez, its like you are PROUD of your ignorance.
