Those in charge have already decided mc cain will be president.
This is my worst fear, but it seems to be the most logical next step on the neo con agenda, which they've gone to a great deal of trouble to create and implement. They simply can't have a Democratic president, and they simply can't have their sickening plans interrupted or delayed by a mere election.

I sure hope I'm totally wrong here, I have been many times before, but optimism is hard for me to find these days.

1. Here's hoping you're wrong too.
Given the overwhelming number of Dem voters in the primaries this year, I do think we have a really good chance to take the WH.

2. There's only one thing that can stop this juggernaut and that's if Obama takes Hillary as his VP.

3. Closer to the truth to say they're conceding the election.

5. That's what I've been thinking.
They know nobody really wants McSame, but it's his due, so they gave the nom to him. But I think they realize he can't win.

6. They may have figured out that being in power is absolutely the worst thing for them.
Republicans are much better at screwing things up secretly, or bitching from the sidelines. Being in power just doesn't work for them!

9. I honestly believe the Republicans are trying to throw this election
I think the Republican PTBs see the only hope for the survival of their party is to blame EVERYTHING on the incoming Democrat.

The Republicans seem to be trying desperately to lose, and the Dems seem like they are desperately trying to keep that from happening!

7. Good to see you back posting here.
And fuck the powers that be. The people can still wreck their little plans.

8. They have definitely decided it
I'm just hoping they don't have the system in place for a massive fraud to take place. McCain is perfect for them because he is going senile (has anyone else noticed this? I'm not trying to score points off of him. He has really lost cognitive ability in the last two years).
