"My friends, we've got them where we want them"
Wasn't that what the Germans were saying all the way up to the signing of the instrument of surrender?

Please note, this comparison has nothing to do with comparing McCain's campaign to Nazis. It has everything to do with comparing McCain's campaign to LOSERS!

1. He's like that Iraqi public relations guy!
Remember him at the beginning of the war in Iraq. The whole city is crumbling behind him. We're in the midst of shock and awe and he keeps telling us down is up.

The Americans have not entered Baghdad. There is no bombing of critical locations. We are turning back the advance of the infidels. We have broken their spirit and they are retreating.

9. Baghdad Bob! Yes, that's they guy I was thinking of!
He kept me entertained for weeks! Apparently McCain is trying to strike the same comedic gold. Thus far: EPIC FAIL.

4. Yeah, only at this point he'd be saying somehting like this
"The double digit leads we're seeing in some polls are a sign that the Obama campaign is in its last throes."

13. What a perfect train of logic
If they've got Obama right where they wanted Obama, then it logically follows they wnated Obama to have double digit leads in most polls.

:rofl:
