First off, I'll lay out why Obama is beating Hillary:
Obama and Hillary are 99% together on every issue. She can’t make Healthcare, or Iraq, or Al Queda, or transportation, or energy an issue because her and Obama agree on them.
Hillary is trying to use the inexperienced issue against Obama, and it ain't really helping her. Why? Because he can always point out that she's used her position to make bad decisions, and shown a lack of wisdom. Experience only gets you so far, if you’ve used it badly. Otherwise, we could say Bill Bidwill would be considered the best NFL team owner/ executive, I mean, he’s been doing it for 40 years!
Also, if Hillary has experience, where and when? Being married to a Governor and President isn’t the same thing as being a Gov or Pres. If this counts, then is Joe Montana’s wife the greatest quarterback in the history of the NFL? Is Monica Lewinsky qualified to be ambassador to Palestine or Cuba? Is Elvis’s wife the greatest rock and roll star ever? Behind every great man is a woman, but she is still behind him. Being on the stage is entirely different than standing to the side.
A large number of Democratic voters don’t want to go back to the 1990’s fights, unlimited investigations of White Water, Vince Foster, Monica, etc.
Obama has Oprah. It ain’t a black thing, it’s that Oprah brings a huge number of women to Obama, and undercuts Hillary’s base.
Change and Hope are real. Words matter. Ideas matter. If they didn’t, tell me the difference between getting married, and shacking up. Being declared husband and wife, what do the words mean? According AA, and Bob, and Michelle, the words mean nothing. What does being a conservative mean? If words don’t matter, then is Jesse Jackson a conservative or David Duke, or Mao Tse Dong?
What does Obama stand for? Reforming HealthCare, getting the US out of Iraq, catching OBL, and reforming the immigration mess, caused by those with experience, John McCain, and Hillary.
What does Clinton stand for? All the same things, except she’s going to do it right, this time, I guess? I mean, she was wrong on NAFTA the first time, wrong on healthcare the first time, Iraq the first time, and immigration the first time, but she’ll get it right this time, maybe, right? Or not, maybe we can get Chelsea in 2016 to fix it.
What’s McCain stand for?
Pro amnesty.
Opposes going after Osama Bin Laden.
Pro occupation of Iraq.
Supports the idea that Catholicism is a whore religion, and a cult.
Supports flying the Confederate flag over State capitols.
So how can McCain run differently than Hillary? He can’t run the same campaign Clinton ran and lost with. He can run as a right of center/ conservative candidate, and label Obama a liberal. The problem then becomes, the Republicans will be running on issues, and today on every issue, except abortion, 65% plus of the American electorate are liberal. So McCain will run on these issues:
Opposed to immigration, and amnesty, when he authored the 2006 and 2007 amnesty bill, embracing groups like the Minute Men.
Opposed to Catholics, will run a campaign with evangelical preachers calling all Catholics whores, and cultists.
Opposed to Mexican immigrants, and favors deporting all 6 million, like Tom Tancredo. And another 6 million of other furry little foreigners.
Opposes all Americans with un-American names, like Gonzales, Hussein, or Eisenhower.
Supporter of the Confederate flag.
Opposes inter racial marriage, from his Bob Jones University alliance.
Opposes reforming healthcare.
In favor of tax breaks for Exxon Mobil, at a time when they are making all time record profits. But no increase in services for the poorest 80% of Americans.
First of all great call today, You were calm and precise. You didn't yell ala Leonard Clark or even attempt to listen to a rebuttal like Mary from Memphis.
I agree with much of your article until the last part. What McCain supports and opposes.
Opposed to immigration, and amnesty, when he authored the 2006 and 2007 amnesty bill, embracing groups like the Minute Men. Granted he is s***ty on immigration. I agree and mentioned that when you called in. But embracing the Minute Men to me is a saving grace of sort not a bad feather and many GOP Conservatives may well see this as some kind of reparation for the immigration bill.
Opposed to Catholics, will run a campaign with evangelical preachers calling all Catholics whores, and cultists. Not real sure where you got this? I have seen little to indicate his hatred of Catholics. While he may be a Christian that is not predicated on Catholic hatred. They too are a Christian sect so to speak.
Opposed to Mexican immigrants, and favors deporting all 6 million, like Tom Tancredo. And another 6 million of other furry little foreigners. He will have a hard time here as we have discussed. Most Conservative do not advocate the forced removal of "all illegals" but rather enforcement of the laws not he books now, tougher border control and employer sanctions similar to those passed by the State of Arizona. I say Conservatives, not those currently in office who are Republicans by name but not by action.
Opposes all Americans with un-American names, like Gonzales, Hussein, or Eisenhower. What? Come on. This is as bad as our side claiming Obama is a Muslim. He isn't.
Supporter of the Confederate flag. So what of it. It is a part of our collective history. Blacks have MLK Day and Black History Month, we have the Confederate Flag. It is a symbol not of slavery but of the right states to govern themselves within the confines of the collective Federal Constitution.
Opposes inter racial marriage, from his Bob Jones University alliance. Ever seen a Liger? I have but it was in a zoo. Whether someone opposes inter racial marriage or not doesn't matter because it is not unconstitutional besides the fact that it isn't an issue in this election.
Opposes reforming healthcare. AHHHHH, the rub. Reforming health care, or taking it over as an arm of the Federal Government. Are you aware that in a recent study close to 70% of people liked the health care they get from their provider? What you are talking about is Universal Government Run Health Care. Your right, McCain agrees with 70% of Americans on that one.
In favor of tax breaks for Exxon Mobil, at a time when they are making all time record profits. But no increase in services for the poorest 80% of Americans. I would ask how many more services do the poorest 80% need, and do most of them need anything from the government beyond the roads, water etc that are provided now. This is a disagreement in fundamental in the extent to which government is provider to the masses or guarantor to the masses of their freedom to succeed on their own .
As for Exxon Mobile, where were you in all those years when they lost money, and how do you plan to explain to the stock holders which amounts to nearly 30% of the country when the return on their investment goes in the tank, keeping in mind of course that most large municipalities (city workers, school teachers, fire fighters, cops, nurses unions, other unions, you know, the lower paid but highly important segment of society) are invested in mutual funds which carry Exxon Mobile and other oil company stocks.
