Why are we so shocked that they lie???? That is our problem, we

are always suprised at the GOP. We are always in reactionary mode because of "they would never do that". We don't understand you can't not embarass a group that doesn't give a shit what you think or feel.

We never have a farm team of candidates ready to take advantage of a supprise openning. We never do doomsday planning. I hear it all the time on this board, "that will never happen", just because you would not do something doesn't mean the GOP will not do it.

Like tonight; I think they will bring in Palin or D Cheney in as the suprise speaker.

What is the probablity that they will bring in the pope. Why that would "never" happen, well I would check to see if he could physically get here by speaking time because big money can make many unthinkable things happen.

This election is still Obama's to lose and they better rampup the offense.

They have said that facts don't mean anything to them this time. I don't ever recall a campaign saying that before:

They just can't muster up thinking out-side of the GOP box.....hence......Ryan will.
