teddyb:raven, he appealed to them in such a basic way... they all do the same things.. . all of them... they talk about fear... they tell them that if you dont elect them bad things will happen and the dummies buy into it... its amazing... bush was so bad after the first term there was no way they re-elect him.. but then the repubs went after kerry and swift boated him... and thats ow they won.... bush in the final debate said i believe god wants iraq to be free.... and that was it.. they bought into it....GOOD GOD bible thumpers.... they all think that christians should influence how the country is run...KILLS ME... for the last 2 weeks mcann has run around with his bimbo that is incapable of giving an interview has talked about what a horrible person obama is... they use his middle name COME ON! like he's a terrorist! are you frickin kidding me?.....COME ON!~ they will do anything to keep power... and are incapable of admitting that they have failed in everything they have tried to do this is horrible! lets hope race doesn't enter into this thing
I think its too late for that...race has become a factor...and its a shame. But having said that I also have to believe that as a people we have turned the page on the 60's and the general population will not be inspired by those wanting us to fear the african american race.
The fact that they tried to tie him to being a Muslim or a terrorist just to invoke fear....yes they are playing the fear card once again...is disgustingand a new low for the republicans....because its a dangerous game and the stakes are high when you ranp up your base so much that you can not control them...whether they meant for it to go that far or not remains to be seen....I would like to believe they did not and it was a last ditch effort for a failing campaign....and a whole lot of poor judgement by McCain....
I lost alot of respect for John McCain because of these tactics....
all anyone can do is hope the American public is smarter this go around....and that another Bin Laden tape or worse doesn't suddenly appear...
the only thing to fear is fear itself........
too bad the Republicans did not coin that phrase...it could have spared this country a whole lot of pain the last 8 years.....
