The poor GOP...stuck with a weak and inarticulate candidate..McStrange facing the largest LandSlide
since 80% of Oahu slid into the Pacific Ocean 40,000 years ago.....

Stuck with a guy who once was there(8 yrs ago) but rejected and shafted by the Bush Boys...now they let him run in a race they know will be lost....in that sense...McCrush is being thrown under the bus.

Never the less....The GOP must save whatever face they can...so, they will make his case...however weak it is...

To assist, they have started to torpedo Obama shamelessly through their media hit squad...the hannity/OReally crowd....They underestimated him a year ago and still do...thinking the victorious ways of the past will carry the day...they attack not with better ideas and solutions...but with Swifting him no end....it has started and prolly will intensify as time marches.

That is their best bet.....

Only this time....the Dems have prepped themselves....

What will the GOP do? Given their record of solving....it certainly looks dismal.

1. Not to mention that Paul is staging a Revolt at the RNC and Bob Barr is more conservative
than either and is running on the Lib ticket.

2. Never be too confident.....
I thought they couldn't do worse than Shrub in 2000 (fact is they couldn't), and eight years later look at the situation. Never put anything past those jerks....

4. Yes,, they are clever and scurrilous...but this time, the odds show

3. Barr will self destruct soon enough...Paul lacks substantial support.
GOP finds itself FRACTIONALIZED...something we Dems have had to deal with for years....now, its the GOP's turn....

Ain't that strange...We Unite and the GOP divides...who woulda thought?

5. If you listen
to some of the hardcore Hillary supporters, we may have a little bit of that problem to deal with too.

6. All candidates have a macaca moment possibility....sometimes with fatal consequences
Obama's odds for the Macaca is almost nil...

He exudes Positiveness

the Pubs....negativeness
