:rofl:

I think they're in denial...

:rofl:

EDIT: Why do these idiots think all that money is gonna go to McCain? If the RNC had any brains (okay, I'm reaching here...) they would try and save some Senate and House seats.

1. I wish I hadn't gone there, something huge is up. We are doomed.
To: word_warrior_bob

I heard the NRA has at least $40 million they will spend. The NRA never loses and protects our rights better than any other organization in the USA. Very good people.

Okay folks. The big guns are getting rolled out. McCain’s an old naval salt. His father and grandfather were admirals. CCCP Obama garbage has spent probably $200 million, fired endless salvos with misses on the USS McCain. The USS McCain-Palin is coming to flank speed. The 16-inch guns are getting firing orders.

The USS McCain has been holding fire like a naval battle. He also has freeaking Annie Oakley/the female bear killer covering his back. Sarah is a darling of the NRA.

The big 16-inch guns on the USS Missouri McCain-Palin are about to be trained on CCCP Barry Soerto garbage scow (the Indonesian citizen and illegal alien). Get ready to fire.

Let’s make sure we volunteer at local McCain HQ and if you have some money to spare - donate to McCain-Palin 2008.

:rofl:

2. It's like...
when someone pumps them self up over a boxing match--and then their guy gets knocked out in the first round. The pride before the fall?

11. I'll go there: "...and 13 of those 16 inches are from Palin."

14. To quote a Freeper:
"Sarah Palin is the Q-ship, steaming along like a nice, tempting target. But when the enemy gets too close, she cuts loose with a devastating broadside. At the same time, John McCain is lurking just beneath the surface, watching patiently through his periscope as the enemy concentrates on the tough, resilient Q-ship until everything is lined up perfectly, then he is going to launch a brutal torpedo attack that will send the Barry O and the Joey B to the bottom. "

:rofl:

16. Sounds something
like a boy playing with his GIJoes in the bathtub.

They really are all cases of arrested development....

18. Wow! There's something very icky about that whole metaphor.
BTW, that "devastating broadside" must be a mooseburger fart.

4. How many weapon analogies can you squeeze into a statement?
Sheesh. I'm a big on RKBA issues but this is like listening in on someone else's fetish. Ick.

5. THINK they're in denial?
It's a veritable pageant of denial over there.

They are grasping desperately at strawmen. lol

8. They're delusional cause California is bluer than
it's ever been and one dumbassed proposition is not going to change things. McINSANE hasn't even bothered to spend money on ads here cause even he knows it's hopeless for him.

12. Last I heard, California was polling almost dead even on gay marriage...

...so I'm not sure how much that would help McCain even if he had a chance here.

17. I thought McCain was limited to the 84 mill he got from the FEC . . .
Even if the RNC and NRA and 527s kick in, are they going to be anywhere near the 160-400 mill that these loons are proposing? And are the DNC, MoveOn.org, and other liberal 527s penniless and dispirited? I didn't think so.

And if McSame *does* come up with nearly half a billion in funding how much of that would remain unspent, given the near saturation today and broadcasters' need to have smething else to talk about. Would this actually "swamp" Obama's campaign?

No. no, and no.

19. My guess is that McCain's internals are showing that California is
dramatically blue, and that Obama/Biden will carry the state by a very handsome margin.

Election night is going to be a real bummer for freepers.
