Reply #11: IMHO, this is a replay of 1992, which set up for 1994

McSame knows he's toast. Similarly, Poppy saw the writing on the wall around Labor Day 1992, and he changed tactics to scorched-earth policy against Bill Clinton. Don't know if many of you remember, but it was vicious...the goal wasn't to get Poppy to win--that was a lost cause--but to get as many people as possible to hate Clinton.

That part of the strategy worked. Clinton won the election, but was treated as a lame duck for his entire presidency, because of such rabid hatred from the right. Even with majorities in both houses, I remember how every measure and every appointee Clinton put forward was stymied by the repukes. With the help of the M$M, Clinton then became synonymous with Satan himself, resulting in 1994's Contract on America and the GOP winning back both House and Senate.

McSame has possibly already conceded the election, and is merely setting the stage for a ferocious GOP counterattack in 2010 and beyond.
