Not an Ambush but the Capitulation of Repub Ideology!
It's been a whirlwind week with decimated financial institutions creating suspended/not suspended campaigns, last minute deals/deal breakers, canceled/not canceled debates, productive/non-productive white house meetings and an entire repub ideology, gasping for oxygen, flopping around on the floors of Congress.

Yes, the dying fish of republican ideology is lying there with no one willing, or able, to pick it up and put it back into fresh water. The ambush that was supposed to break a hole in the dike of the Democratic dam has instead seen the mighty river of republicanism philosophy dry up.

Now to quit with the worn out analogies, it's this simple. The repubs had nothing to run on this election cycle but dirty tricks and racism. And while racism is (or isn't) a factor that we can not know until the actual election, we have seen that the dirty tricks just won't work this time. Our candidate has knocked every one of them back and shown himself as a true leader. Even the M$M is using the word "Presidential" more and more to describe Obama.

The financial collapse isn't a trick, we now find. If it is then it's the worst planned ambush in political history, leaving those who orchestrated it looking small and helpless while the Dems take on the role of leadership. Mcsame has been relegated to Hail Mary passes and kicking for field goals on his own 20 yard line.

Sure the M$M wants a horse race and they will try their best to prop up the cadaver that was once mcsame, but there is little they can effectively do when the repubs are fumbling so outrageously. They'll try to make it close, but in the end, they know that repub ideology is dead and rotting.

So, to the janitorial staff at the Capitol Building, please send out a custodian with a mop, bucket and deodorizer, there's something on the floor that's beginning to stink.

1. I'd agree, but we are biased.
We have to wait and see how this thing plays out in middle America.

2. Everyone's biased. but it's beginning to look like the rest of America is biased in our favor.
The polls for Obama keep creeping up, especially in swing states, and even the M$M is tearing into mcsame for this latest Hail Mary.
