I was wondering when you would write this, Roger. You have only to check the contributors and comments in PJM to see that they are planning their inaugural attire. Times are going to be hard at PJM and since they will have jobs, will you as the Founder, let them go?

“Brother, can you paradigm?”

Roger L. Simon is a bit too pessimistic. The majority of voters remain center-right. They will not vote for Barack Obama if they know the truth about him. We still have a month to accomplish this goal. Also, we should not overlook Joe Biden. I strongly suspect that he is psychiatrically unbalanced. Biden literally believes people have shot at him—and that his wife was killed by a drunk driver. The investigation after the tragic accident, however, clearly states the exact opposite. Shouldn’t we be concerned if Biden somehow became our commander-in-chief? Do we really want his finger on the red button? I candidly admit lacking the qualifications to determine whether Biden needs professional help. Thus, it might behoove Roger to contact folks like Phyllis Chessler and Shrinkwrapped and see what they have to say on the matter.

Oct 1, 2008 - 10:44 pm 3. Hap Hazard:

Much validity to this conjecture. Voters do remain center-right, but it is difficult for anyone, let alone McCain, who doesn’t seem up for a fight any more, to get past a full blown, orchestrated, open and notorious media campaign effort to place Obama in the White House. I think Obama would practically have to commit a felony for this not to happen. God bless the US. (and PJM, which we will need more than ever, regardless of who wins)

Let me tell you of the shape of things to come under an Obama presidency. If Barack Obama wins this election it will be by a thin margin. Once in office he will try to push his socialist agenda only to have most of it blocked by Congress. Even if the Congress is a democratic majority the blue dogs and some moderate dems will not tolerate the more left wing aspects of his agenda. Contrary to what the netroots want, he will not pull out of Iraq immediately. Meanwhile, the thugs of the planet, emboldened by an ineffectual president will engage in more adventurism around the world. China is already eyeing Vietnam; Russia will continue to browbeat the various nations on her border; Iran will go nuclear. Israel may conduct a strike on Iran to remove the nuclear threat. And on the domestic front the Obama presidency will make mistake after mistake on social policies. This man is of two minds; he either studies the problem too much and does nothing or he gets pressured and overreacts. The corrupt MSM will cover his butt for awhile but when the mistakes grow too large they will feel he’s making them look bad and they will turn on him like rats on a dying carcass. To sum it up, this is the next Jimmy Carter.

Oct 2, 2008 - 1:36 am 5. Pauld:

If there is an upside to the Democrats winning the White House and Congress it is that they will have actual responsibility for the results of what they do. The Pelosi/Reid led Congress will continue to fail miserably. I think O’Bama will be as effective as Jimmy Carter. Four years of misery will remind the country of why it elected Ronald Reagan 28 years ago.

Oct 2, 2008 - 3:13 am 6. BigDoug:

Roger, don’t give up hope yet. There is still a month to go and much still to happen. People will realise that there is more responsibility when you’re president than simply encouraging people to chant “yes we can”. At that point, McCain’s numbers start to increase.

Unfortunately, I don’t think that will be the case.

The media will try to turn Obama into a god. As the first black president, and as a true Leftist, they will try to glorify the Dear Leader’s accomplishments, against all evidence. To criticize The One and his policies is equivalent to criticizing their own worldview and policy solutions, and they simply CANNOT do this. Media lemmings are incapable of self-reflection and change. Broadcast journalists in particular just cannot admit a mistake (since they believe themselves socially transcendant, having achieved the penultimate goal of being on TV).

This pretty much ensures that Obama’s administration will suffer from more scandals and incompetency than it might otherwise have, in the same way that Democrats in Congress, safe in their gerrymandered districts, are utterly feckless because they know nobody will ever call them on their failings by connecting the dots (Fannie and Freddie, anyone?). Obama will also unleash coercive government to stifle political opposition in any and all guises. It’s simply what he does (in pursuit of the Greater Good(tm), of course).

The media is different now than it was even ten years ago. They do not even try to mitigate their power to influence the electorate in their pursuit of the broad goals of enacting liberal policies and getting Democrats elected. They are ALL agenda journalists. If Obama is elected, they will RIGHTLY believe themselves the proximate cause of it, and thus will only be emboldened to do more of the same (i.e., utterly transform television media into an outright (if unofficial) propaganda arm of the Democratic party*).

Obama’s presidency will be known as the Reparations Presidency (and I don’t just mean reparations for slavery).

* I believe it already is.

Roger’s post echoes my sentiments exactly.

Clearly, the Dems won’t be able to deliver on any of their promises – so what will they do? Continue to blame Republicans? Will we get to a Stalinist situation, where people are named “wreckers” and imprisoned for their lack of political correctness?

Obama’s anti-business stance, born of fear and incredible ignorance, may play well among the unwashed masses, but as policy it’s national suicide. Without strong companies, there is no employment, no tax base, no economy.

The media, equally ignorant on this, is gleefully leading the country into a nightmare of biblical proportions.

Obama will make Jimmy Carter look like Abraham Lincoln.

It could be wild in many ways, if it comes to pass. To some degree it depends upon the configuration of House & Senate. If Dems hold solid majorities, I worry about much mischief created by this crew, especially since there is a “crisis”. The “crisis” will be used to justify a lot of stupid things and Nanny state crapola.

However, I think the Clintons will be lying in wait to undermine Obama and try to position themselves as true centrists to save the republic. It could be quite theatrical. If McCain is defeated, the Republicans will have to regroup and allow new people to become the face of the party. Or they can continue to self-destruct.

But the election is still a month away. Things happen.

Oct 2, 2008 - 5:59 am 11. AlanC:

My deepest fear is that Obama as president would try and follow the same trajectory as a Mugabe. Get your hands on power and pay off enough sycophants in Congress to play the tyrant and then really start changing the rules.

I really don’t think that the progressive wing of the Democrats has any problem with a tyranny as long as it is their tyranny.

What would happen then? I don’t know but it wouldn’t be good.

Oct 2, 2008 - 6:18 am 12. hermie:

If the Clintons had anything to undermine Obama, they would’ve used it by now.

Once the Obamamessiah and his civilian army of ACORN/MOVEON/CODEPINK operatives take over the political apparatus, no conservative or moderate Dem is safe. If a Blue Dog Dem is up for re-election, the One will make sure that a team of ACORN lawyers sets up a primary challenger, and like he did during his previous runs for office, they will use the legal system and MSM rather than legitimate ballots to win.

Oct 2, 2008 - 6:20 am 13. bio mom:

I too feel that an Obama presidency with dem control of both congressional houses would be a nightmare but for a different reason. Obama would be a puppet president, not a tyrant. He has no spine or true convictions other than “social justice” whatever that means. He will be totally controlled by others. The Pelosi-Reid contingent will have him for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The country is in the mood to elect this loser. The pollsters have adjusted their weighting to insure the impression of an Obama landslide. The muddle will fall into line with this thinking. We are in trouble. This is the result of decades of inadequate, lefty education in our school systems. Now these indoctrinated types control our press and other institutions of influence. Big time trouble for the country. Big time.

Oct 2, 2008 - 6:39 am 14. bio mom:

Take a look at this from Newsbusters. This phony poll id# sample may just blow up into a real news story. In the whole article he reveals how the AP poll changed:

“Somehow,” the sample make-up changed from 33-31 Democrat to 40-29 Democrat from the earlier to the latter poll — a shift of nine points.

“Somehow,” the Strong-Dem vs. Strong-GOP difference went from nothing to eight points.

“Somehow,” the Strong-GOP vs. Moderate-GOP mix went from +3 to -3, a swing of six points”

How much proof do folks have to have that these pollsters, mostlikely because of money and the ability to get contracts are in the tank for Barak Obama? Or else are just blowing in the wind, doing whatever.

Oct 2, 2008 - 6:59 am 15. ricpic:

The Dems will have the presidency and both houses of congress. There will be nothing to stop them. Only reality will stop them. But reality won’t kick in immediately. This means that at some point in Obama’s term, probably the 2nd or 3rd year, the U.S. will enter a genuine depression. And given that those under 40 have experienced nothing but ridiculous levels of prosperity all their lives the reaction to the horrors of a genuine depression will be themselves horrific. There will be armed insurrection. That’s what’s coming.

Oct 2, 2008 - 7:06 am 16. Promoguy:

What disturbs me about the current state of the campaign is that there is so much that McCain could go after and just doesn’t. I am not sure why, but the campaign is just not into fighting. As folks have said, it’s still a month away. Just seems like the decisions being made aren’t the right ones.

Oct 2, 2008 - 7:18 am 17. Mareyel:

This election is beginning to remind me of the ‘92 election. The president will be elected with less than 50% of the popular vote. If The Messiah wins, his first two years will greatly resemble the first two years of Bill Clinton’s administration with mistake after mistake but with much higher stakes. IF the GOP will allow new and younger (we should NOT be running a candidate who is 72 years old…I’ll vote for him only because there is absolutely no alternative and I’ll be holding my nose all the way into the booth)leadership to come forward and not self destruct, the House will turn GOP in 2010, just as it did in 1994. This time, however, let’s hope we do a better job as a majority party. The Republicans seem to do much better as a minority party than they do as a majority party. A pity.

Oct 2, 2008 - 7:58 am 18. david foster:

People who suffer from severe status anxiety often tend to act viciously. This was true of many American racists in the old days, and true of many Germans in the inflationary chaos of Weimar.

I think that clearly the MSM people sense that their influence & status have declined sharply, and they will react viciously against those who they perceive as threatening further reductions in that status.

Oct 2, 2008 - 8:31 am 19. LSD:

Promoguy: I feel the same about the lack of offense in McCain’s campaign. I hope Palin is able to show something tonight.

The systematic silencing of critics. The uniformed children singing praise. The (new on dish network) ‘Obama’ television channel!. The vice-presidential debate moderated by a sympathetic media personality.

The Republican candidate who refuses to point out that the emperor has no clothes.

I feel like the only non-believer at an old time tent revival.

Oct 2, 2008 - 8:38 am 20. Paul:

Of course the having the Dems in charge will lead to massive economic failure and global political instability. The smart Dems know this and desire it. Fascism is always ushered in on the back of crises, real or imagined. The global warming hoax was created expressly for this purpose, but is no longer needed as there is a real crisis to exploit. Thus it’s pretty much off the front page and irrelevant except for those who make a living off of it.

Oct 2, 2008 - 9:09 am 21. Godzilla:

Obama has one very important thing going against him: the truth. He simply is not qualified to be president, does not have the experience. He will lose the election.

Oct 2, 2008 - 10:00 am 22. jedrury:

If Obama wins, we will hear the media decrying the mistakes; Palin wrong choice, McCain wrong candidate, aftermath of Bush, etc. The talking heads will spew on and on. They will ignore their role, as being with few exceptions, the culprits.

Obama will, as Roger writes, have a full basket and may be pressed
to enact his liberal program. He will bring with him an administration much like the Chicago mob; the usual stiffs, reprobates, the frequent stories of conflicts which will eke out in the Washington Times and the Journal but it will be honeymoon time in DC.

The changes will be at the edges; dealing with Gitmo, dealing with Petraeus [who could be sacked], the left will press for immediate troop reductions and we will see the furrowed pensive brow of Obama debating this issue with Biden, Albright, Lake,and Dick Holbrooke as if he has not been handed victory on a golden chalice by the much maligned occupant of the White House now. John Paul Stevens will finally step down from the Court and whoever – whoever – Obama appoints will take the robes.

Things will change and then they won’t changes. The press will protect Obama as much as they can because he is THEIR candidate. Fortunately, we have almost an alternate press on the Internet and in the Journal and on Fox.

“They will not vote for Barack Obama if they know the truth about him.”

Therein lies the rub.

Oct 2, 2008 - 10:39 am 24. Lightnin' Hopkins:

I’ll resign myself to defeat only when the votes are counted and my guy lost.

The stakes are high and Dear Leader would make a horrendous president, without a doubt, but the election is a month off – anything can happen. For instance, Sen. Foot-in-Mouth squares off Gov. Sarah Palin of the great state of Alaska tonight and the *people* – not the chattering class – can begin deciding for themselves about who is best for them.

Right up through the now standard-issue biased and way off exit-polling on Election Night, the MSM will be trying to will victory for their precious redeemer, but he still has to get the actual votes. Have a little faith.

Oct 2, 2008 - 10:43 am 25. Lightnin' Hopkins:

…off with…

Oct 2, 2008 - 10:44 am 26. hermie:

With Obama will come the firing or defanging of Patrick Fitzgerald. He is the US Attorney investigating, prosecuting and convicting corrupt Chicago and Illinois politicians; a number of them associates of Obama’s patrons the Daleys. If the WP and NYT thinks that firing of US Attorneys by Presidents is sinister, wait until Obama…no wait…they WILL find some justification for Fitzgerald’s firing. Ironically the MSM and Dems just LOVED Fitzgerald when he went after Scooter Libby, but if the Obamamessiah gets in, watch for him to be labelled ‘rogue’ and unworthy of his position.

Of course, Daley will get his billions for the O’Hare airport expansion, even though he is illegally seizing the property of neighboring communities. Also with the distress the airlines are in, they won’t be able to pay their ’share’ of the costs, and some of them may reduce flights altogether. Which means that there won’t be enough air traffic to justify the expansion. But what’s another ‘white elephant’ (Is that term considered racist now?), as long as Daley cronies get fat construction contracts and relatives of city bosses get high-paying jobs.

Watch for the backlog of Federal judgeships to suddenly disappear as the Judiciary Committee rubber stamps the Obama nominees; rewarding his ACORN/MOVEON ‘volunteers’, and making sure that the US Constitution can be reshaped just as long as the outcome is deemed by the Obamamessiah to be ‘fair’.

Oct 2, 2008 - 11:02 am 27. jll:

Don’t be such cowards and throw in the towel, yet, folks. Redouble your efforts at every level to defeat Obama and the media that support him! Talk to the undecided anywhere, any time you can. Make the obvious case for McCain. Obama has no record of leadership and no ability to lead, only to play the system and gain political power. Jews who vote for Obama may as well pick up their bar of soap and be prepared to walk into the shower Obama and his ilk are preparing for them

Oct 2, 2008 - 11:16 am 28. hermie:

I haven’t thrown in the towel…I’m just reminding everyone it’s not just his naïve foreign policy and massive tax and spend economic policy, it’s also his ties to the radical Left and to the corrupt Chicago political machine.

Any other politician with such a background would be avoided like the plague, but we must push as hard as we can to elect McCain and Palin, otherwise we will not end up with another Carter, but we and the world will end up with a Nero.

Jindal/ Rossi 2012

Oct 2, 2008 - 1:02 pm 30. Barry Dauphin:

It is neither chickening out nor throwing in the towel to pay attention to what is happening. McCain pulling out of Michigan. According to the report he won’t be running any ads in Michigan, and he has cancelled a campaign stop in Plymouth, MI. He will concentrate on Wisconsin, Ohio and Florida. It is not helpful to ignore stuff like this. Yes, McCain could still win, but this suggests his campaign sees the possibilities shrinking, not expanding. Again, there is time between now and election day, but I think there will have to be “game changing” events to become more optimistic.

Oct 2, 2008 - 1:34 pm 31. Barry Dauphin:

There is a link in “McCain pulling out of Michigan” but only shows up when I run my cursor over it. Might be a Safari thing.

Oct 2, 2008 - 1:36 pm 32. John:

The current election and the media and the left’s maniacal push to make it happen, resembles nothing as much as the 1989 New York City mayoral election, with Barack Obama as David Dinkins, Ed Koch in the moderate Democrat role Hillary Clinton had during the primaries and John McCain in the Rudy Giuliani role. Rudy lost that race, but there was nothing the New York Times or the TV networks could do four years later to keep the not-exactly-conservative voters of New York City from ousting Dinkins and electing Giuliani, because he had to run on his record, not on some buzzwords like “hope” and “change”. Slick marketing might lure the public in once, but if the product sucks, all the polished PR in the world isn’t going to lure them back.

The same held true in 1980. Carter was a disaster, but the media was never going to desert him, and spent most of the election campaign trying to convince the public that Reagan was an idiot who was going to blow up the world. Didn’t work because Carter had to run on his record, and if Obama does win next month the same will be true in 2012 — the media and Hollywood may still try to sell him as the messiah, and they may still try to sell the idea (as they did with Rudy in 1993) that his opponent and anyone who supporters him are racists, but if Obama is as much of a train wreck as many of us think he’ll be, he’s not going to keep the swing voters he needs to win re-election.

Oct 2, 2008 - 2:36 pm 33. Godzilla:

Although this is something that I don’t like to think about, because it makes me hope that McCain loses, I’m willing to wager a sizeable chunk of money that the 2012 incumbent will be doomed to defeat for having allowed Iran to develop nuclear weapons. I doubt that McCain can do anything to prevent that, and Obama certainly won’t. In fact, I’d wager a smaller amount that Israel will be nuked before 2012. Tonight all I want to see is Palin do another job on Obama. Biden is irrelevant. I’m voting for McCain, but I’ll tell you right now that I’ll be breathing a sigh of relief if he loses. I just want Palin to come out fully restored by Election Day. She’s the future.

Oct 2, 2008 - 2:55 pm 34. Mike_K:

This is what fascism looks like when it is being whooped into office. The elites think they can control this empty suit, and maybe they can, but I wonder. Who knows where all that foreign money is coming from ?

With Obama will come the firing or defanging of Patrick Fitzgerald. He is the US Attorney investigating, prosecuting and convicting corrupt Chicago and Illinois politicians; a number of them associates of Obama’s patrons the Daleys. If the WP and NYT thinks that firing of US Attorneys by Presidents is sinister, wait until Obama…no wait…they WILL find some justification for Fitzgerald’s firing. Ironically the MSM and Dems just LOVED Fitzgerald when he went after Scooter Libby, but if the Obamamessiah gets in, watch for him to be labelled ‘rogue’ and unworthy of his position.

I think this is step one after inauguration. Clinton did the same thing with Whitewater.

Oct 2, 2008 - 2:59 pm 35. Terrye:

I realize that Obama is ahead, and I do think he can thank the financial crisis for this. It is too bad we do not have an objective and unbiased media which might actually report on the genesis of this crisis, but we don’t.

However, that will go on for so long. The Democrats were able to hide this nasty little secret until reality hit and the markets tanked. Chances are this won’t be the only disaster. Only the next time, there might not be any George Bush to blame.

In truth this began a decade ago. The Bush administration did try to bring Fannie Mae under the control of the Treasury Department as far back as 2003, and Democrats like Barney Frank and Chucky Shumer defended the agency. In 2005 McCAin tried to get reform legislation through. The Democrats blocked it. Back in the Clinton years Republicans like Newt Gingrich did not stop these changes, I am sure no one imagined then that this could happen.

But if Obama wins, the chickens will have come home to roost. I somehow doubt he has a magic wand to fix this.

Oct 2, 2008 - 3:03 pm 36. david levavi:

A year ago McCain was counted out. Dead and buried. And then there he was, the only Republican candidate still standing.

I have confidence in this old soldier. Loyalists complain that he isn’t playing hardball. But even as he’s held his fire, his opponent hasn’t managed to widen his lead until now. And this lat through no doing of his own.

The novelty has worn off Obama. His high flown oratory has lost its resonance. The idol is tarnished. The bloom is off the rose. And he’s shot his load. There is nothing terrible he or his MSM stooges and surrogates can say about McCain or Palin than they have not already said. Ad nauseum.

Had McCain flogged Obama’s most glaring negatives all along, his criticisms of Obama would be old hat, too. But he’s been a gentleman and kept his powder dry. Obama’s closet is full of skeletons and the greater American public has yet to meet them in full color.

Obama may yet regret MSM’s suppression of any and all criticism of their chosen and all but anointed.

After a long hiatus from the public eye, Revs. Wright and Pflegger may yet be raised from their deep freeze, fresh, hideous and hoary. Ayers Dohrn and ACORN are barely known to the wider public and full of incendiary potential. America has yet to be introduced to the poor Black folk and the cockroaches and rats in the Chicago public housing that Obama turned over to his crony Rezco.

Keep your pajamas on. This race is going down to the wire.

Oct 2, 2008 - 4:25 pm 37. Dr.T:

I’m a congenital optimist, but I confess to feeling despair.
It’s clear that people who know the real Obama and the consequences of his intended policies will vote against him.
But one can tell from the utterly false ads for Obama that they are able to get away with telling lies with no fear of repercussions.
The media will do nothing to bring out the truth about his background; what little was said during the primaries was not considered by the general public.
The ridiculous irony is that the people who put us in our current financial crisis will be elected and those who tried to prevent it will be defeated.
Of course we always think the current liberal candidate is the worst ever. But now we truly have a person who is not only inexperienced, but utterly unqualified to be president.
He scares the daylights out of me.

Oct 2, 2008 - 4:59 pm 38. Ralph Woods:

Obama campaigned on a mantra of change and now change is coming faster than even he could imagine. An economy tanking faster than gas prices rose. No money for all the utopian socialist programs because it has already been spent on utopian mortgage programs that failed. Wars and rumors of wars in far flung regions that he has learned the names of in only the last few weeks. Change is certainly at hand.

Oct 2, 2008 - 5:25 pm 39. frankie:

We can always revive the militias like during the Clinton years.

Oct 2, 2008 - 5:29 pm 40. John:

I’m pessimistic at this time, but as I said above, long-term I expect that even if Obama does get elected, you can’t put lipstick on a pig, to borrow his phrase, and sell it to the American public once they’ve seen the pig in action.

Even with the mortgage and banking crisis, Obama continues to run away from the issue, as if he’s still a back bench in the Illinois Senate. And the media covers up for him. But when you’re president, you can’t spend four years ducking every controversial issue, and — while I’m sure he’ll try it, and the media will assist him in his effort — you can’t spend four years blaming all your problems on George W. Bush. That might work for a year, but a Barack Obama who won’t take any responsibility is going to anger the American public after a while, as will a Barack Obama who tries to play the race card on every controversial issue (I mean, jeez, Saturday Night Live’s already called him out on this one).

And as far as Congress going lock-step with Obama if he tries to push a left-wing economic and/or foreign policy agenda, a lot of Democrats just got into office two years ago, in some cases by running to the right of their Republican oppnents. And they remember what happened to the Democratic reps in swing districts who stuck with Clinton on tax hikes and national health care in 1993-94 — they were ex-representatives by 1995.

A lot of damage can be done, especially on national security during an Obama administration. But unless they’re incredibly stupid, swing state Democrats are not going to be like those kids in that “Children of the Dammed” Obama video two days ago, and march their political careers off a cliff because the media and Hollywood are having orgasms over the guy. Which is why if Obama decides to follow the advice of his closest advisers, best bet is he’s as beleaguered as Jimmy Carter circa late 1979 a few years from now.

Oct 2, 2008 - 5:44 pm 41. hermie:

But think of how much damage Jimmy Carter did while he was POTUS, and he was only a complete incompetent. Obama is actually wanting to destroy the military and the economy so as to install his far Left plans. His foreign policy people want Israel to submit to Hezbollah and Hamas, and his answer to Russian aggression is to blame the victim.

What kind of a world will be left when the enemies of the US are emboldened by Obama’s weakness?

Oct 3, 2008 - 10:27 am 42. newton:

Just watch. The moment Obama gets his first full-CIA briefing as President, and maybe even his first economic briefing, his smirk will disappear and his hair will begin to turn gray. You will not see that man smiling again for the rest of his presidency.

That day, my friends, is when our revenge begins.
