He will be our next president and you boys need to get used to the idea. Need I remind you that Obama's lead today is about the same as Kerry's was in '04? And Obama's vetting hasn't even begun yet? Obama's position is very weak at 5 points considering the circumstances. If McCain has the will to attack Obama on his weak spots, McCain can win in a landslide. If McCain is "too nice", which he may be, he doesn't have a chance no matter what. Obama is very mean-spirited at his core, and will use tactics such as the Wesley Clark and 527 attack when it is to his benefit.

but you will be proving the point that your loyalty to your country is overshadowed by narrow personal perceptions. Very good...but we've seen this movie before, so i would say that they would be re-affirming this thin loyalty... Al

Michael, > Perhaps he will surprise you as reagan surprised some on the left. That would indeed be a "surprise." IIRC, though, the left was only "surprised" at how popular Reagan turned out to be. That's like saying Dubya surprised the left when Kerry said, "I can't believe I'm losing to this idiot!" Tenchusatsu

Wow, you imbibed a belief in predestination when you drunk the Obama koolaid. Why not just admit you support the guy? Maybe cause you can't think of a good reason to justify it? And yes, you've drunk the koolaid: f you choose to be rejectionists and attack him for everything, thats your choice but you will be proving the point that your loyalty to your country is overshadowed by narrow personal perceptions. Wonderful, Mike, you just attacked the patriotism of everyone who is heretical enough to reject the messiah. That's actually one of the most fanatic statements I've heard from an Obama speaker yet. Not counting guys like Vasoline Spirit, of course.
