Woody Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Obama is hearing footsteps. In the latest poll ... McCain has closed to gap to only 5 points. Last week it was 11 points. This will be a horse race. I've been hearing on Fox News about all the vicious attacks on Sarah. They have even made a Porn Movie with her taking off her clothes. And they showed an Obama supporter saying " Palin is a .... And the Fox News reporter said that they had to block out the last word because it was even more vicious than the word you might think of. If Obama received this kind of treatment like the left is giving Sarah .... they would be screaming Racism. Instead ... sexism seems to be harmless to the left. I for one am outraged and will not take it anymore. My wife and I are going to go out and wear our "Palintology" and "Our Mama Beats Your Obama" shirts when we are in public. It is the least we can do for our country's sake. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.

Dr. Shane Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 The polls don't look good for McCain. I think Obama might be in for a landslide - defined as a double digit win of the popular vote. That might be pushing it but if things don't change it is certainly possible. Quote Pastoral Family Counselor...

Moderators Bravus Posted October 13, 2008 Moderators Share Posted October 13, 2008 1. Keep on believing McCain can win. 2. And in the context of the comments someone made about Palin, how do you feel about the 'Kill him!' comments directed at Obama at McCain/Palin rallies? 3. I hope you share John317's mature perspective: campaign hard, but respect your President, whoever he may be, once he's elected.

Moderators Bravus Posted October 13, 2008 Moderators Share Posted October 13, 2008 I think those footsteps Obama is hearing behind him might just be Biden: the new FAUXNews poll shows a 5% gap, but all the other new polls out show increasing gaps. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/polls/ Quote Truth is important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators John317 Posted October 13, 2008 Moderators Share Posted October 13, 2008 2. And in the context of the comments someone made about Palin, how do you feel about the 'Kill him!' comments directed at Obama at McCain/Palin rallies?... Absolutely wrong to say it or to encourage that kind of thinking. When I was in the 8th grade, America lost a president to assassination. People who didn't live through that have no idea how grief-stricken the whole nation was. Even those who favored Goldwater were crying like children. We don't want to see that, no matter how much anyone objects to their policies. There's a right way to change a president. Quote John 3:16-17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. [17] For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Bravus Posted October 13, 2008 Moderators Share Posted October 13, 2008 Wow - I'm not having a go at you or attacking, I'm just kind of gobsmacked by the level of 'the data that correspond most closely with my worldview therefore correspond most strongly with reality' that you've got going on there!

Woody Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 It's called supportin my man. But, Like I have repeatedly said ... the history that the polls do not take into account is that throughout the history of polls with Obama is that when it comes votin time .... the people have been found out to under-report how much they support those running against Obama. It has been shown that 6-7% of the voters do this. So, therefore due to history ... it is best to believe the polls that show the least amount of lead for Obama. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out. So, mark my words. This is a close race. Closer than the polls might indicate. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won.

Moderators John317 Posted October 13, 2008 Moderators Share Posted October 13, 2008 Exactly-- you don't give up or stop supporting someone just because they may be losing or even if they lose. If you believe in something, stand by it through thick and thin. The thin can become thick pretty fast, and thick can can also become thin. So hang in there!

Moderators Bravus Posted October 13, 2008 Moderators Share Posted October 13, 2008 There's a difference between supporting your guy and denying reality, though. It's possible to strongly believe that McCain would be the best president and still recognise the reality that he is currently lagging in the race. Meh, whatever works for you guys.

Woody Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 Whether he is "lagging in the race" or not ... I still believe he would be a fantastic president. What a man. A REAL man. A man with hair on his chest like my Dad used to say. Now that should be the test. Does the man have hair on his chest. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won.

carolaa Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I'm thinking Redwood must be speaking figuratively, because I know he's not sexist. Hmmm....figurative chest hair....what could that mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Bravus Posted October 14, 2008 Moderators Share Posted October 14, 2008 It's kind of the same as figurative cojones I guess.

Moderators Bravus Posted October 14, 2008 Moderators Share Posted October 14, 2008 Of course, hair on the chest also has the potential to be... the 'r' word, given that it's northern European males who are hairiest and many other races are less so...

Woody Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 OH. I feel so beat up. I have to admit that you guys got me on the hair issue. I just didn't expect such objections. You see ... I was raised on this chest hair issue. At first I didn't have much. Now that I do ... it is no longer in vogue. I just can't win. Whine Whine Whine ..... Win Win Win McCain.

Woody Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 Hey Bravus ... Maybe we could start The Hairy Chest Club here on CA. Do you think that Stan would agree?

Moderators Bravus Posted October 14, 2008 Moderators Share Posted October 14, 2008 I'm not privy to that information, but my best guess is 'Yes'. I read a novel when I was a teen that used the phrase 'hairy-chested man of action', and that kind of stuck with me. Of course, I'm really more of a 'hairy-chested man of sitting in front of the computer', but it's a nice concept. Quote Truth is important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
