    Thank God Almighty !

    The thought of Sarah Palin being a heart beat away from the nuclear launch codes would have been too much !

    Can sleep now. In peace !

    you're slightly premature, they haven't counted the redneck states yet.

    obama winning wont be safe till california is counted at the very least imo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 874 ✭✭✭Max001


    .......in my humble opinion.........plus his gains versus Kerry in '04 across most counties in all states, indicate an overall win.

    I think its been a foregone conclusion for a while now.

    Technically a little premature, but assuming PA stays Blue, it'll take nearly a miracle

    It's too early to say he's won. But Fox has just called Ohio for him, that's a pickup versus Kerry in '04. This means that McCain needs to gain a Kerry '04 State, which aint gonna happen! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,195 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Yep.. bit premature but..

    On BBC1 John Bolton has to be one of the most odious individuals I have ever had the displeasure to see.

    Bolton is an intelligent guy but has always been a cantankerous auld git. He keeps it interesting, though.

    I think he is great, in a very grumpy old uncle kind of way.

    I think it's ok to get your hopes up. Even Fox News have admitted America is about to become the land of milk and honey :P

    hmmm, what do they expect to happen?
    Obama to magic the economic downturn and the Bush administuction away with a wave of his magic wand?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,316 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    I think they think that the democrats have been overdoing it on the Lithium lately.

    As I said in the thread I started, I don't think the economic problems are gonna go away and Obama will more than likely get the blame.

    Yes it will become the land of milk and honey but for who?, Obama plans to legalize 12million illegals thus shoring up the new Democrat dictatorship while the hard working White Majority gets pummelled in taxes to pay for the new Marxist Socialist utopia Mr. Obama plans to create, America will now be more divided than ever before and I firmly believe that the union is now under its greatest pressure since the beginning of the Civil War. America will be glad to come back to the Republicans and they will in droves yet. From one right wing moderate to a left wing black Islamic named liberal marxist.... A hollywood producer couldn't have scripted it.

    Nov 4th 2008 the day the liberal facisists took over America and it became a single party state.

    I pray for the day that democracy returns! God Bless and Protect America as there are dark days ahead on the horizon.

    Ah Christ. Seriously, the worst thing about having conservative beliefs is being associated with idiots like you.

    McCain co-authored the bill to give those immigrants legal status.

    Islamic named? So? Why not go the whole racist hog and call him a ******?

    McCain's speech is coming across as extremely genuine and heartfelt, I really feel the guy could have romped home had Obama not been opposing him.

    It's either CBS or the McCain campaign that are playing what sounds like "Hunt for Red October" soundtrack, weird.

    ROFL they're playing the theme from Crimson Tide at the end of the McCain speech. Damn, beat me to it. I think it's crimson tide & it's the McCain campaign cause it's on BBC news too.

    Yeah, I wouldn't really worry about what that poster John Bolton says, look at his track record ffs.

    Fine speech by John McCain. Any ideas on when Obama will be making an appearance?

    McCain's speech reminded me of what he was like before the Presidential Campaign and what I liked about him as a politician.

    McCain prepared that speech 4 months ago


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 86,729 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    I'm happy for McCain. He certainly walked away from the edge and redeemed himself a bit.
