23 % of Republicans will cross over to vote for OBAMA in Nov...
The Econ Factor is that overwhelming .....and ole John has no real answers cept vague empty language used by Pubs in the past a long time ago...eons even...

Truth, Sanity, and Reason will prevail...the Pub BS is now having a harder time for the Peeps to swallow....McCane is unable to compete in the Realm of TRUTH

Many will vote Dem cause they got burned following Bush and his cronies....Many are poorer due to Bush,,,,

Many Pubs now hate the War.....its eating away too much gas for their SUVs to continue...the Military is consuming a hugh amount of foss fuel...

7. That claim (23%) is dangerous speculation and breeds apathy.
There are SOME repugs who will do that but there are far more who will sit out the election

and

there are MANY democrats who will do the same before they will cast a vote for a black man. Just like Willy Brown
said the other day.

8. If anything is dangerous...its the spector of a McLame presidency
Now, THAT would be dangerous....John would take us further down the rabbit hole following the Bush Tunnel...

The GOP and their Philosophy is what is killing this nation....The TRUTH is whats gonna do the Pubs in, the TRUTH

Reality will bring back SANITY

12. Fool-Aide is selling like CRAZY in GOPer land though!
And more CRAZY is the best the pubs have to offer!(CRAZY looks just like a little smirky chimp sometimes)

The faithful little bush-stepping homelander dickens's are merrily lapping that fresh McCain Fool-Aide up like it was light sweet crude but it's really more krud that crude...and McCain is both crude and krud so he's the Repub's best shot...

The Shite Talk Express is spreading the Krud and the Mud and the Fool-Aide on just about every channel free of charge thanks to the corporate cronies in the Freep Press.

The GOP's message... ***** ... AMERICA..."Get Over It!"

After George Bush leaves the White House, America will probably never be a good as it was before Bush took over...McCain is just Poppy's fourth term...I hope the fools wake up this cycle.

20. Many of them Pubs are now suffering due to Bushie Boy and his decisions
The perception of Bush has changed to something bearing the Truth....He ain't no Leader...not even close

Not one winner in 7 years....if the coach at Morgan Town had this kind of record....7 losing seasons? He would be long gone.....

I smell LandSlide....

35. I hope your political super-snout is on the right track my friend!
The Pubs can't even smell Dave Vitter, let alone that stale POS in the White House. The typical garden variety republi-conned drones just vote year after year, for the same ole shit to go on and on, like they were a herd of pet goatbots...on and on and on goes the stale ole shit...until now we find ourselves and our country in a total and maybe even endless world of shit and still the underemployed, probably soon to be homeless, as well as shiftless and toothless, GOPer faithful's worst worry is..."Who would JeeBus have a freakin' beer with?"

BaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaD...the goat vote and Diebold will not lay down like a lamb IMMHO.

The Lying and their Lambs won't ever lay down, as long as they see still more loot ahead for the "haves and the have mores" to grab.

America took the GOP's advice and just "Moved on" after the SCOTUS handed Bush his crown in 2000 and we've been "moving on" ever since...to bad it's all been full speed bass-ackward. And Sailor John hasn't really noticed...It don't look good for the ship of state with ole Sailor John on watch.

Come, we go and wonder who JeeBus will tell John McCain and the rabid Reich's PNAC/GOPer gang to invade, round up, torture, pillage and plunder next.

38. Fox has misled America into Worshipping the "American Idol"
And Gawd will put a worse whammy than Bush on us, if we aren't careful!

I'd like to hear the tapes of Shrub's "daily prayers" where JeeBus told George and Dick who to smear those turds on and who not to, wouldn't you

Edited on Wed May-07-08 06:15 PM by opihimoimoi
Ole McSame....even some of the border Pubs can see that...enough to know when to fold the Pub hand...

The Pub Masters? they got shit....leaving them no choice but to go all in with John....and attempt the same BS as they did in the past.....

They will play the race card

the not qualified card

the too yound card

and whatever card they can come up with to throw stones at him...

Thats ALL THEY DO...Put Downs and Throw Rocks...

Truth is another term for Reality...the Pubs hate it...thats why they prevaricate they way they do...

This election will be different...Reality has hit the FAN

32. The Pubbies little man in the boat has wrecked the ship of state
Edited on Thu May-08-08 06:54 AM by Hubert Flottz
and pillaged and plundered the country until it's at the breaking point and I'm STILL talking to repubs who think they should just go on voting GOPer.

American History, Impending disaster and trickle down gloom and doom does not compute for shit, in the bushbot's CRUDE & tiny memory bank when he jerks the lever on election day. All the faithful fool-aide soaked voterborg remembers is that his daddy was a repub-o-zombie too and his daddy's daddy was a repub-o-zombie before that.

The GOPer voters couldn't even smell that something was just not right about that critter Dave Vitter!

Shite talkin' Jon will shoot America's final wad, if he gets a chance to wreck the country for four more years. I think jon and the PNAC-0-pubs want to totally ruin the country and then go for Poppy's "One World Government." A world where the meek or the weak shan't inherit shit! Their brand of "JUSTICE" will be the law of the fang and claw, for about 90% of the worlds population and the haves and the have mores(the other 10%)will be above the law like Bush Cheney and Rove and Scooter have been.

McCain don't see any stinkin' injustice and you'd think that a man who himself had once been the victim of torturers would have had a clue by now.

Nothing wrong with the economy that really "bothers" John...but then John is not trying to make ends meet, like most working(if they're lucky)Americans are. He wants to "fix things" with even more "TAX CUTS" and to make other Bush Tax Cuts for the wealthy and Bush's elective war in Iraq last 100 years.

I hope that the typical repub-o-zombie sees the error in their voting ways and that they do the best thing for the COUNTRY, for a change! I think the GOP really started to come unglued back when Bob Dole spiked the GOP's Fool-Aide with Viagra!

Come, we go and grow a tomato...better to grow 'em than to throw 'em!(sometimes)

36. Hubert, that bit bout "Fool-aide" is a classic and so is PNAC O Pubs
The Ungluing of America started when Reagan, Newt, Nixon etc began to use self interest instead of Common Interest...the shift really escalated when these current dodos got into office...Rove, Bush, etc should be branded and innoculated with Truth, Sanity, and Altruism....that should teach um....lol

Meanwhile, all we hear from the Pubs side of things is tax cuts and national security..same ole shit, worked in the past but this time....far over shadowed with Obamas "Truth"

So, for the present, ...them Pubs will continue to use Put Downs and rocks thrown at us .....no match for 40mm Truth cannon fire. Obama will use all the ammo stored for all these years on McCane who has ordered tights and a cape to transform into ELDERMAN....able to leap tall deficits in a single bound.

The sit looks gloomy for the GOP and for good reason...they reaping the shit from shitty decisions...

Ya jus know some GOOPer is telling them other Gropers, "I tole you guys not to back W...now look, that loser has fucked it up for all of us"

Come, we go raise COMMON GOOD, BENEVOLENCY, and some FUN for good measure.

27. I suspect that those Republicans with land on the Mexican border
are pretty damned pissed off about the "Fence". Skeletor has overstepped his bounds by forcing the fence on their properties.

High gas prices and high food....yea that will piss them off.

39. Maybe its about the "Shellshocked" House Republicans
GOP Leaders Warn of Election Disaster

Shellshocked House Republicans got warnings from leaders past and present Tuesday: Your party ’s message isn’t good enough to prevent disaster in November, and neither is the NRCC’s money. The Republican brand has been so badly damaged that if Republicans try to run an anti-Obama or anti-Rev. Wright campaign, they are simply going to fail.

...

In a piece published in Human Events, the Republicans’ onetime captain, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, warned his old colleagues that they face “real disaster” on Election Day unless they move immediately to “chart a bold course of real reform” for the country.

40. Time for the rats to flee from Dumbya's stinking sinking ship.
Edited on Thu May-08-08 10:59 AM by Hubert Flottz
It's every stinky, shaky, greed driven, tubby, pubbie, rodent, for himself!(never was any REAL honor or loyalty among gangs of thieves, crooks and liars)(never will be)

I hear the Army needs a few "GOOD MEN" in Iraq. For those proud and soon to be out of work, GOPer pols who have never served in the armed forces. They can ALL go over and "Support The Troops" in person after January!

The GOP/Bush has murdered TRUST in America, along with about everything else that was any good...
