Obama is going to beat this guy like a borrowed mule.

1. Yes I often wonder why people say Obama can't beat McCain.

McCain is an idiot that can only win against Bush if they were running tomorrow.

2. McCain is great until he talks...

This is going to be a fun general :)

He says "Oh, we're gonna eliminate federal gas taxes during the summer."

People are pissed about gas prices and they're pissed about taxes. This kills two birds with one stone. Great idea!

...until somebody with an IQ over 40 brings up that this won't reduce pump prices by more than a couple of dimes.


I really think these older candidates forget that the rest of us have a LOT of information at out disposal. In pre-internet days, garbage like this would have worked, but I have to wonder if candidates that spout silliness are just too set in their ways to realize that the game has changed.

3. Wait until the GE, wait until MCSame is TIRED from campaigning.

Right now he's taking it easy. Right now he's getting his rest. Wait until he's abck on his heels after a 30 city bus tour in 4 days - he's gonna crack.

We need to get behind the Dem candidat (whomever) ASAP.

Not to mention he's not spending any money...

4. ....

:wow:
I didn't think I'd see the day when McCain said something dumber than shrub, alas it has come!

5. He opens his mouth, ...

he removes all doubt ...

6. the funniest thing is - this is the best the repubs could come up with?

if we don't beat him well...I just don't know what.
