Posted: Wed Mar 05, 2008 3:35 am Post subject: President McCain |
|
|
The big winner last night is clearly John McCain - and it has little to do with locking up the GOP nomination.
The democrat side will go on to the convention - which is a huge plus for McCain.
For the next 4-5 months or so, McCain can raise money and define Obama - while he is tied up battling the Clinton machine. What a head start this is.
At the convention is when we will know the democratic nominee -
Hillary - the only mathematical way that she can win the nomination is by convincing the super delegates to ignore the votes - which will show Obama ahead. Imagine the backlash of the Obama supporters if this is how she wins - the party insiders (clinton machine) will be seen as stealing it and will have to make statements as to why their judgment is better than rank & file democrats who actually cast votes. African Americans will be mad as hell - young whites will stay home or go to ant-war Nader. This will cost Hillary 7 - 10% in the general election and would assure a McCain victory.
Obama - he will go into the convention leading in popular vote and delegates. I imagine the super delegates won't go against that and I think he will still be the nominee - however - he will be bloodied by the Clinton slime machine. Bill & Hillary's attacks on Obama are illustrating the differences between Obama and McCain - this is free attacks for McCain. For 4 months! Assuming Obama wins the nomination - he is getting a very late start at raising money and a late start at combating McCain's attacks on him. Taking this all the way to the convention will cost Obama 4% in the general.
This is the first time I have thought McCain will be the next President. If this rings true - he should send Hillary flowers - and Bill a stripper. The Clinton's are McCain's best friends.
Of course, I could be wrong.

Yeah, it's to the point now that I don't even consider them a threat. They're insignificant. It's too bad really, even though I'm more conservative, a system of checks and balances is always good. The Left has been made into such a joke by poor representation that they remind me of the little kid at school who tries to fight kids that are bigger than him, and people feel so bad for him that they don't even bother. Bad time to be a left winger.

The democrats have been acting like the "I'm telling" kids, and nobody's listening anymore because they've done it soo much.

Too bad, too. Because the economy will continue to go straight to hell under the modern conservative model.

Kizzume,
As a pokemon fan, and an obama supporter, I appreciate that video. Was that made by you or where'd it come from?
