Captain, were taking on water, GOP Former Sen. Larry Pressler (R-S.D.) jumps ship

As the republicans filter away from Mccain the
septic basckwash will be the last to go...
the mongers of hate, bigotry, war, divisivness, self righteous ego centric filth!

The party of family values
has been undercovered!

Jaethefirst advises,

"I was once a mindless Obama supporter, but now I question his motives."

But now,

" I'm reading a publication that purports that Obama may be using clinical hypnosis to capture the masses."

Jae? Clinical mass hypnosis? You buy that?

From one credulous stance to another? Where's the improvement?

Raven6,

Good points.

In the 10 years of Republican exceptionalism they could have done away with a whole list of issues, like Roe vs Wade, Brown vs Board of Education, prayer in schools and so on, except that the voters would have skinned them for it.

So instead they've now compounded their problems by blaming Democrats for economic failures the Republican majorities refused to address and then mixed in the racism and paranoia of fringe groups..

I know, with all that's going on it may sound counter-intuitive, but voter sophistication - what voters no longer will buy or even tolerate - is higher than ever before. As you point out the Republican base really hasn't grown with McCain it has withered to a form of third-party race radicalism.

Open the doors to whites-only aryans, skinheads, bigots and all those odd people who couldn't quite cope with new people on the block, and what have you got - a rump, not a coherent or cohesive party and far from a nation-wide force. Courtesy of the electoral campaign of McCain Palin.

That their teams thought that pushing all these buttons would win the election for them? Well that's the Creative Destruction paradigm the neocons so adore, isn't it?

It's dangerous to follow one person entirely.

I was once a mindless Obama supporter, but now I question his motives. "I love him, but I'm not in love with him" as it were :)

If there is any truth to this NWO, Obama would make a strategic sense, as their new poster boy; he's logical and persuasive, and like-able.

Plus, I'm reading a publication that purports that Obama may be using clinical hypnosis to capture the masses.

Anything is possible in politics.

My point: don't be afraid to ask questions.

I do hope Obama is for the people and not in support of the NWO...(ignorance is bliss?)

There is that October surprise I keep hearing about
With a week left McCain may just blow his stack and enough people in enough may suprise us and change there vote to Obama
Obama could just take every state with McCains ludicrous speaches

I do not think they can rebuild. They're talking about Palin leading the ticket in 2012 ! They are lost.

Aryan Nations, Nazis, Fascists, just plain racists are going to vote Republican. They can count on those like they're doing in this election.

As for corporate support. It used to go to Republicans but they've shown complete incompetence in all things business and financial so my guess is we'll now see corporations going Democratic.

Which leaves us with the Christian Wrong. They've been used by Republicans who would state whatever religious bullshit would get them into office then ignore them.

Don't believe me ? 10 years of a Republican President, House, and Senate, we've still got Rowe vs Wade.

And so in the end, I believe the Christian Wrong has done much to destroy the belief of God in this country. In the future, they will probably either vote as a much smaller group or brake up with some voting Republican and some voting Democrat.

So all in all, I don't see how these factions with so different ideology and agenda can ever be put together again. Thank goodness.

Thoughts ?

In both dimensions it's like a tsunami - long time Republicans were forced out, a flood of racists, bigots, anti-semites, and knuckle-dragging nutbars flooded in to joujn the hate-a-thon rallies - Senator McCain is reaping exactly what he has sown.

Not since the FDR years has any party looked so lost, out of touch, money crazy and vulgar.

Any guess if it is possible to rebuild after the McCain tsunami?

McCains Campaign is using terror tactics
Does that mean he is a terrorist

Obama used logic and intellect
Does that mean he is a president

I think so!

DO NOT BE TERRORIZED IN YOU OWN HOME BY MCCAIN ADS

Vote Obama

Only the lunatics are still backing McSame.

And why do they find themselves this way ?

Lied us into war - Treason
Outed CIA Agent - Treason
Hired his bud to head FEMA (Katrina) - Criminal
Fired non-Republican Federal Prosecuters - Criminal
Anti-Homosexuals - but Republicans are full of them
Anti-Sex - unless in bathrooms with homosexuals - see above.
And quote, "The fundamentals of the economy are very strong." - John McCain, one week before 700B Bailout.

The fact that Republicans are clueless is frustrating. The fact that they are a Criminal Organization is why they wanted Republican Prosecutors.

People, The Fix was in.

Republicans were home free and now we've gone and screwed up their agenda.

God Bless You.

Obama scares the hell out of Republicans in Office because they don't own him. They know he'll take our country back and throw their ass in jail !

Sen, your on the rt side for a change.
