Win or lose, it won't be for lack of fighting the repuke MSM bullshit
Obama really is fighting back. It's just so damn heartening to see. And for the record, I believe he'll win- not just because he's fighting or running a smart campaign, but because in two months the economy is going to be even worse than it is now. And for much of the country, the reality of a long, cold, prohibitively expensive winter will be setting in. Yeah, Americans vote based on stupid shit like personality, but the economy is at its most compelling when it's bad. Obama needs to focus on that day and day out and scare the shit out of middle class voters about McCain. Run ominous, scary ads, get real people out there, and paint McCain as someone who doesn't give a shit about anyone but his corporate, lobbyist pals.

2. None of the concern Brigade can accuse Obama of being weak-kneed now
ENOUGH. Spare me the phony outrage.

BAM. Obama smacks them straight up: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

3. fighting back
Obama needs to fight back against the SARCASM coming from the republicans. In my dictionary sarcasm = a keenly ironical or scornful utterance; contemptuous and taunting language, or the use of biting gibes or cutting rebukes, to speak bitterly. It shows disrespect and extreme immaturity. My grandchildren sometimes do this because they are immature and because they feel small. McCain doesn't care about anyone but himself, or back in the 60's he wouldn't have done what he did. I remember, and I don't care, I still think he is a slime ball. If he sold out his country once he can do it again, I don't care what it was for. Torture or not. If he couldn't stand up then for his country with his life, what makes us think he would do it as president? I might sound stupid and I am sorry if that seems to be true but I remember feeling so degraded by the videos of him, downgrading the USA, the Vietnamese showed. It showed he has no guts! He not only doesn't care about anyone but he doesn't even care about his corporate palls either.

5. He needs all of us
to fight for him because he is a good and honest person. I met him in 04 and liked him. I felt back then that he was going to go somewhere. I hope that he can fight enough to win.

7. Yes, sadly I agree scary ads can get the job done.
In the midst of holding the vision of Unity. Hope. and Change........Obama is FIGHTING back, too.

It's an interesting dychotemy to see.

WE get to choose: HOPE or FEAR??


I know what I choose.
