Within The Next 18 Months, I Guarantee That Obama Wins Over AT LEAST 50% Of McCain Voters.
Edited on Wed Nov-05-08 09:51 AM by OPERATIONMINDCRIME
Thinking about it objectively and rationally, I'm convinced that probably half of those that voted for McCain did so out of being influenced by the lies and deceit. But those lies are now done. Now they will see the reality of an Obama presidency, and will see how ridiculous some of the fears had been. Sure, it will be quick that they realize he's not a friend of terrorists and won't radicalize the White House. But that's not why I guarantee their support.

I guarantee it because of the biggest and most effective lie of all: Taxes.

So many McCain voters were against Obama because they're CONVINCED that Obama will raise their taxes. But he won't. Not only won't he raise them, but the cuts these people will get is substantial. That's 95% of the electorate. And within the next 18 months, when they do their 2009 taxes, they will see just how much tax relief they're actually getting. That money will be real. That money can't be lied away. They will have no choice but to realize how wrong the lies were and that their fears were unwarranted.

And I guarantee you that when these middle class households that were influenced by fear realize that they need fear no longer, and that they have MORE money in their pockets by paying LESS taxes, they will be comfortably in the Obama camp.

I love knowing that. I love knowing that the commercials are done and eventually the REALITY of Obama will set in. He won't raise their taxes. He'll put money in their pockets. When he does, they'll be his. He is set to be the best president of our lifetime. I have no doubt.

3. First he needs to actually fulfill some of his promises once he gets in office.

Politicians don't usually deliver even half of what they promise. If not, he'll have plenty of disgruntled Dems. to deal with, to have to worry about whether McCain's voters have a conversion.
