The Water Cooler

1.) George W. Bush lost this election for McCain. Sure, McCain made errors along the way. Examples: Saying the economy was fundamentally sound the day before it completely cratered; picking Sarah Palin; and "suspending his campaign" were all big blunders, among others. But this election wasn't really won or lost on those snafus. People saw through the bullshit and knew deep down we couldn't live with another 4 years of these bad Bush policies. 2.) The American People have rejected Republicanism roundly. At least the modern version of it. It's time for fiscal conservatives to wrestle back control over that party. Social conservatism, blending of religion and …

Just quoting you from September 7th: "McCain is going to win this election. I guarantee it." You still standing by this statement? If the opposite occurs, I will be expecting you to eat crow. Peace

God bless America!

Da Coach is on the McCain-Palin Team Watch video at link Mike Ditka uses locker room flair at Pennsylvania rally Updated 3:04 PM CST, Fri, Oct 31, 2008 Mike Ditka steps up for the McCain/Palin ticket at a campaign stop in Pennsylvania. Da Coach showed his passion. He had his usual flair. It was something right out of a 1985 locker room speech to the Chicago Bears. "Don't talk about what you're going to do," Mike Ditka told the crowd at a Pennsylvania rally Friday. "Prove you can do something." As Ditka stood on stage with presidential candidate John McCain and his running mate, Sarah Palin, he looked almost Presidential himself...or at least Senato…

Both are very cool.

Its illegal to get campaign contributions from non citizens. Another shady piece of Obamas life. He claims he didnt know she was living here. Think about it, a man running for President of the United States has a family member that lives in the country illegally.

A Canadian comedy duo called The Masked Avengers from CKOI 96.9 FM in Montreal, Quebec pranked Sarah Palin, convincing her (and her team) they were receiving a call from French President Nicolas Sarkozy. Dan Quayle wasn't even this gullible!

OH NOOOOOOOEEESSSSS!!!! The Obama campaign gleefully sends over an announcement of a major endorsement.... for John McCain... by Dick Cheney. "In three days we'll choose a new steward for the presidency and begin a new chapter in our history," the Vice President said Saturday morning. "It's the biggest decision that we make together as Americans. A lot turns on the outcome. I believe the right leader for this moment in history is Senator John McCain." This isn't, perhaps, the story that McCain headquarters wants in the news, though the press is undoubtedly going to play it up. Cheney is, after all, the Vice President. If there was one GOP o…

OK, so my last word on the election wasn't my last word... But this is HUGE! Even Reaganites are behind Obama! http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/...endorses-obama/ (CNN) — Former Reagan chief of staff Ken Duberstein told CNN's Fareed Zakaria this week he intends to vote for Democrat Barack Obama on Tuesday. Duberstein said he was influenced by another prominent Reagan official - Colin Powell - in his decision. "Well let's put it this way - I think Colin Powell's decision is in fact the good housekeeping seal of approval on Barack Obama." Powell served as national security advisor to Reagan during Duberstein's tenure as chief of staff.

Pokes fun at politics in general, not a liberal or conservative favorite, a parody, makes me laugh anyway. http://www.peteyandpetunia.com:80/VoteHere/VoteHere.htm

http://www.7obamanations.com/ Muslim faith, not a christian nation....hhhhuuummmmm As for Lovie backing Obama, C'mon 95 % of African Americans are voting that way, any real surprize here?

As I get prepared to be swamped by hordes of terrifying children, just want to wish everyone some fun tonight. LET YOUR INNER CHILD OUT BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Things in the polls look good. But I have little faith. I have almost no faith in an electorate and an electoral process that twice sent George W. Bush to the White House. I fear what the election of John McCain will mean to this country. I can't imagine four more years of ineffective governance. But, as you know, I see things differently than some others here. I have no intention of gloating or sulking on Wednesday. Regardless of the way this goes, all we can do is move ahead. If McCain wins, I hope the John McCain of 2000 re-emerges. This country deserves at least that. If Obama wins, I pray he's as smart and as energized as he's convinced me he is. We ne…

Lovie Smith today at practice said he is backing Barack Obama. Just thought I'd help "share the knowledge" with Cracker Hopefully I won't be "sharing the wealth" with him though, sorry Cracker.

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama was less than upfront in his half-hour commercial Wednesday night about the costs of his programs and the crushing budget pressures he would face in office. Obama's assertion that "I've offered spending cuts above and beyond" the expense of his promises is accepted only by his partisans. His vow to save money by "eliminating programs that don't work" masks his failure throughout the campaign to specify what those programs are -- beyond the withdrawal of troops from Iraq. A sampling of what voters heard in the ad, and what he didn't tell them: THE SPIN: "That's why my health care plan includes improving informat…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9T0FI2axbU Sickening. Do the McCain backers here think this sort of thing belongs in our politics? Step up and put yourself on record.

A new 30-second spot on Barack Obama's Web site is urging voters to "talk to your boss" or professor and then take the day off from work or school to volunteer for his campaign on Election Day. The "Take the Day" campaign suggests voters sign up to go to battleground states or work in phone banks closer to home on Nov. 4, when they would normally be at work or in class. "We can't win this election unless every Obama supporter gets out and votes on November 4th. To do that, we need a massive team of volunteers helping us. Can you take next Tuesday off from work, join the final push, and make sure that everyone who supports Barack turns out to vote?" asks the Web …

Check it out. The evidence is clear. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3AvZqYC4mw

UPDATE: You can see a short video showing the humor Obama uses to deliver this speech. As I've noted many times, there is no way McCain is going to convince America that this guy is anything but the genuine article. ORIGINAL POST: I suggest you read this if you want to cut through the crap some of our right wing members are posting here. If you don't think what Obama here says is compelling, or you simply don't believe him, fine, vote McCain. If, on the other hand, you're touched by his words and you've got no reason to believe McCain more than Barack, think carefully about what we've seen happen to this country over the last 8 years and maybe even conside…
