I guess I’ll just keep repeating this until some of you understand that the democratic party is split. About 3 weeks ago, there was a Fox News poll that indicated that only 58% of Hillary democrats supported Obama. Further, it said “that 28% of her supporters(up from 21% in June) claimed they were voting for McCain.” Since then, I have seen an article that 25% of Hillary followers were voting for McCain in Tennessee. The democratic primaries split the democratic party. About 5-7 million democrats are voting for McCain. In 2004, Bush beat Kerry by 4 million votes. If 5 million Kerry democrats had voted instead for Bush, Bush would have won by 14 million votes. There is no possible way that Obama wins this election.
Capiche?

Not to mention,higher,permanent unemployment,low rate of innovation,and demographic collapse. Europe is collapsing. Leave it to socialistic addle brains, like Alex M,(M=moron?)to recommend failure as a solution. By the way Alex,et al,just who was it that pushed the socialistic homeloans to the undeserving that caused the financial collapse? It sure as hell wasn’t Mcain.

Imunck – I don’t buy your assertion of other countries having a higher per capita income than ours. I’ve heard them touted as having a higher standard of living than ours, but that’s just subjective.

Furthermore, our country is 30% of the worlds economy. We drive the world’s economy. When we sneeze, the world gets a cold. How well off would those countries be if they weren’t exporting so much to us?

We have been out-producing the Euros for years, and the gap is widening, despite the great population difference. We’ve been the most competitive economy in the world year after year. We do this while funding a much larger military, and contributing more to charity and international relief.

The thing that drives down the average wage in this country is the massive amoount of immigration. Their wages get figured into our average wage and brings down the average. Figures don’t lie, but liars figure.

You tell the average citizen that “his” wages have been stagnant, and he believes you, even though his own actual wages have gone up. They’re always concerned about the direction of the country or the economy, but at the same time, they’ll tell you that, they, themselves, are doing okay.

They keep getting fed this nonsense by the Dems talking down the economy, when we have the most powerful economy in the world. It has suffered all these terrible crises, but has endured it rather well, all things considered. The big problem now is the lack of confidence… generated by the Dems and the Media.

Jennifer Rubin’s advice to McCain has been schizophrenic to put it mildly. In the neo-fascist rag Commentary, Rubin has urged McCain to press on with the Ayers™ nonsense that nobody except the rabid base cares about, even at the expense of obscuring McCain’s message on the economy beyond “I’m old and rich and I’m confounded.” McCain and the RNC seemed seduced by the ridiculous Rubin advice and have squandered 10 days out of 30 before the election.

Now Jennifer Rubin contradicts every other of her squealings and wants McCain to argue that more Bush economics is good for ya, u betcha. How late, how lame, how silly after suburban voters have already accustomed themselves to the idea of Barack Obama as president.

Throughout the 2008 campaign, Jennifer Rubin has been the Democrats best friend. A fifth column?

You republican guys are crazy. Have you ever wondered why 10 out of the 11 industrialized nations with a higher per capita income than the US are all “socialist” with government funded health-care and schools??

It is because it is good economics!! It may be bad for those select few who want 13 cars or more, but for a country it ensures that every human resource is developed so it can support the shared economy.

Oligarchies are SO two centuries ago..

What hatred of Obama! If all the right wing nuts & “christian” conservatives hate the man that much, that’s enought reason for me to vote for him; the rape-u-licans have already taken everything I’ve earned; I’ve got nothing left to lose.

All McCain has to do is remind voters of his longstanding positions:

1) “THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THE ECONOMY ARE SOUND.”
2) “I VOTED WITH PRESIDENT BUSH MORE THAN 90 PERCENT OF THE TIME OVER THE PAST FOUR YEARS.”

We hear a lot of things on both sides, and it doesn’t move the electorate. Why? Because we’ve heard *exactly the same things* in the past 2 elections. Remember the “Kerry is the most liberal senator” thing? And now we hear it about Obama. Can they both be the most liberal? Remember “Kerry’s going to raise your taxes?” Now we hear it about Obama.

People are sick of being lied to by the politicians. So, we look at record. And, we compare the record of the last Republican, GWBush, vs the last Democract, Bill CLinton, to be in the oval office. Know what? People were better off under Clinton.

Rezko, Ayers, Wright…people were better off under Clinton
9/11, Osama, Iraq….people were better off under Clinton
Tax cuts, deregulation, ownership society…people were better off under Clinton
Prayer in schools, Terri Schaivo, abortion…people were better off under Clinton

Until we see a Republican do a better job than Bill Clinton, we’re not going to believe this nonsense again. Nothing John McCain can say will change things as long as people were better off under Clinton.
