Freeper Heads EXPLODING over Gallup Results. PANIC. PANIC. PANIC!

[berni_mccoy]

They can't understand why Palin didn't give them a bounce.

Some are saying "Shouldhave picked Romney"

Others blame the media.

The best: "Holiday Weekends Poll Heavy for Dems" :rofl::rofl::rofl:

To: anyone
Where are the repub surrogates hammering away LOUDLY in defense of Palin? Better yet, why the heck is McCain not out there screaming in her defense?

26. should McCain let Palin GO????

http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2008/09/01/should-mccain-let-palin-go/print/

Here are some of the reasons that McCain should reconsider his decision:

Hearbeat away. She has had very little experience governing and none with foreign policy. This would be fine if McCain was in robust good health. Unfortunately, that is not the case. She could actually become President and it is far from obvious that she has the most executive experience among all the potential VP candidates that might need to step in if McCain could no longer do the President's job.

No longer a shoe-in for Evangelical vote. She was strongly supported by the Evangelical wing of the Republican party due to her religious beliefs and her decision to keep her fifth child after she learned it would have Down syndrome. But with her 17-year old daughter having a child, some might question how strongly Palin believes in abstention until marriage.

Corruption concerns. It is not clear whether McCain knew that Palin was under investigation for firing a public safety commissioner who refused to fire her brother-in-law. And did he know that she denied involvement with lobbyists in an interview with Maria Bartiromo, even though a TransCanada lobbyist played a central role in getting a $500 million subsidy for that Canadian company to build a gas pipeline she was pushing?
Science skeptic. Today I heard a radio interview on NPR with a woman who had been undecided between Obama and McCain. She opted for Obama because she cannot stomach the idea of voting for Palin due to her skepticism about global warming and her belief in creationism. As the daughter of a Republican civil engineer, Palin's skepticism about science cost McCain this woman's vote and that of her father.

In this election, vice presidents matter. And McCain's hasty choice tells us something scary about how he makes important decisions. Does he have the temperament to lead America? Will he dig in his heels and defend Palin against a building wave of trouble? Or will he quietly accept her resignation and move on?

Update. The New York Times reports new details that raise more questions about Palin. Palin was one month pregnant when she got married in 1988 -- her 17-year old daughter is five months pregnant and it was announced that she plans to marry the father, Levi Johnston. Meanwhile, the Times reports that Palin's husband was arrested in 1986 for drunk driving.

2. That was fun

:popcorn:

I was wondering how long the denial could possibly last.

[AlCzervik]

4. oh thanks for posting, i hadn't seen the gallup poll yet, nice 50%.

[Warren DeMontague]

5. They don't understand that millions of Americans don't get gooey over every fundy numbskull who

promises to outlaw abortion and teach "creationism" in public schools...

:shrug:

6. No heads exploding, but it matters little.

Remember, the Free Republic posters were absolutely convinced that Alan Keyes would clobber Obama in 2004 for senate. They thought his message would resonate among Black voters. There are a lot of delusions out there. The right will be solid for Palin, but it doesn't matter if the rest of the country rejects her.

[ben_meyers]

10. It matters little because FR is about as

representative of the real world as DU is. I don't much heed what they have to say.

I would be a little more worried about people like Limbaugh, and he is in his glory today.

[gabeana]

11. Why be worried about Limbaugh

do undecideds listen to his show?

[Mike Daniels]

15. Rush and Hannity speak to the converted

I can't think of any true independent being swayed by anything those blowhards spew out on their programs.

[ben_meyers]

22. Well of course they do, that was my whole point

And they have far more reach than FR and DU combined can even dream of having.

[ben_meyers]

17. Do "undecideds" read FR or DU?

Like it or not Limbaugh does have the largest talk show radio audience. And he is "talking points central" for the RW.

[gabeana]

27. Do undecideds listen to Limbaugh?

my response on that, being worried about Limbaugh

[TornadoTN]

19. He's been pushing for Palin for weeks, if not months

Apparently, Rush is taking this as a nod to him and further inflating his ego - no, not that one, the other one that doesn't require little Dominican boys to inflate.

But in all seriousness, he has been advocating for her for a long time. A salesman who comes into my office from time to time was talking about it to me sometime in late July or August. He's a Rush-bot and he still wonders why we don't want to do business with him.

7. They seem to mostly say the polls must be wrong.

I like the one guy who said this:

Given the crap that’s been organized by the scum at NBC, CBS, ABC and the cable networks, I’m surprised its not a higher margin.

So NBC, ABC, CBS, and the cable networks are all "scum" because they are reporting that Obama is more popular than McCain. Who does that leave?

[MUAD_DIB]

14. Rush Limbaugh?

8. I love "Freep-dropping"... best one so far...

"Where are the repub surrogates hammering away LOUDLY in defense of Palin? Better yet, why the heck is McCain not out there screaming in her defense?"

Hey FFRANKO, Both Gallup AND Rasmussen ARE Repoublican pollsters, moran!

[gabeana]

13. These freeper are stupid

this one is my favorite

"In 2008, Gallup is interviewing no fewer than 1,000 U.S. adults each day, providing the most watched daily tracking poll of the race between John McCain and Barack Obama.

Now who do you believe the polls or the people..Gallup interview no less than a thousand people..How many people are in this country?I would also like to know what kind of people..Do they know anything about the candidates that are running?I will start believing the polls when everyone in America is ask who are you voting for.."


Hey dip shit on only believing the polls when everyone in America is ask who are you voting for

that's called election day

[BanTheGOP]

23. At least posters don't have republicans invalidating their results...

....yet.

[flamingdem]

16. Capitol Hill won't allow unregistered users now.. nt

[davepc]

18. I love this...

While I do think there is lots of negative stuff in the quiver to bring out about Obama and Biden, I think the public’s fascination with him will wear thin. He was flying high because and when people knew nothing about him. As the public finds out more about him his numbers drop and will continue to drop.

What utter denial you need to be in to insist Obama's rising numbers are actually his falling numbers.

[Jennicut]

20. "Where's the stories about the concaine?!?!" These people make me sick.

And they say we are the ones who unfairly attack poor poor Palin.

[davepc]

21. Pot Smoker Palin...

[Fire_brand]

24. Much of that sounds a lot like DU, especiallty this one:

"Note: Gallup polls registered voters, not likely voters. This factor alone tends to oversample both Democrats and Independents."

just replace Republicans with Democrats

[Eurobabe]

25. People are REALLY beginning to pay attention

now. Look for lots of movement, always after Labor Day.
