3. So why are you voting for McCain?
That is what a vote for Obama will lead to...

5. Are you insane jackson_dem?
Edited on Tue Apr-08-08 05:32 PM by Zachstar
I just need to ask, because I am about to put you on ignore for such a stupid question from you!

Obama = Democrat

McCain = Republican

A vote for Obama = a Vote for a democrat

A vote for McCain = A vote for a republican

Politics 101.

7. Next time clarify before you post such stuff.
As for your crap about Obama losing in the general.

Hmm lets see Obama currently is doing better nationally.

Clinton has more scandal on her than fur on a dog.

Clinton has to have serious blowouts to tie Obama in delegates, otherwise a superdelegate move to Clinton for her to win will cause chaos in the democratic party = McCain win.

Your point is spin in my view it is nothing but crap in my view.

8. He is doing the same as Clinton. That is scary.
Shre has been attacked for 16 years by rethugs and the msm, 5-6 years by the far left, and over a year by Obama. Yet Obama does no better than her against McSame? Guess what will happen once the msm and rethugs attack him if he is the nominee. Add to that the fact he does worse in the states we must win and he is the weaker candidate. His popular vote numbers are misleading because he loses by less than Clinton in red states, although they both lose badly. It doesn't matter if we lose Montana by 25 or 17 if we lose places like Ohio and Florida.

10. FL is going to be a loss. You mise well accept that.
A win is great but FL has been unstable for a decade now. And with this mess with the delegates the republicans will do massive campaigns to discourage democrats there.

Yes we need to work to get the FL vote but we have to plan for its loss.

I think Ohio can be a win against idiot McCain. Obama will have little issue as he campaigns there.

11. Clinton leads in Florida right now. It is Obama who loses badly there
If Obama wins we can write off Florida. Basically with Obama we have to "hope" he sweeps Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. It is unlikely he will win all three...He has a decent shot in PA but Ohio is a real problem for him. He consistently does worse than Clinton, and before him Edwards, there and the rethugs have yet to touch him...

Bush was an even bigger idiot than McSame and he won Ohio twice. Don't underestimate McSame, especially against Obama. Obama's weaknesses are McSame's strengths (as far as the public is concerned). By nominating Obama we are like a football team that decides to surrender home field advantage because Obama vs. McSame will be on the only turf McSame has a shot at winning on. If it is Clinton vs. McSame it will mainly be about the economy.

12. I do not underestamate McCain. I know what kind of crap he will pull.
However bush won Ohio twice in a different era. Back when the war actually was halfway popular. Bush had his Repub=Win Dem=Lose in Iraq thing and that resonated with voters in Ohio.

But he won Ohio in 2004 by the tip of the Hair against a candidate that in my view was not a good choice to run against a war president.

Remember that Obama gets support in areas that he visits. He will have to keep on the road alot, However, As long as he is moving McCain will not stand a chance.

McCain will talk about his war record while Obama talks about jobs.

McCain will talk Iraq being a good idea for our security while Obama talks about bringing the troops home and getting the world with us again.

McCain will stumble around as the WHOLE idea was he was to run again Clinton. Obama throws a GIANT wrench into his machine plans.
