I dont trust any of us anymore. its all over. I better start hitting the Red Dawn DVD, Red Alert games and Freedom Fighters so I can be ready! THANKS PUBLICANS!
Not too worried about the polls, still to early to get too worked up about it. Check again in five weeks and then I'll be getting worried if it is the same situation.
as for foc, the only real solution to dealing with libertarians in poltics threads is termination of any posting privlidges. Let's face it-given the choice between intelligent discourse rooted in reality and free speech, free speech sucks ass in comparison.
I would be legitimately embarrassed if we elected McCain. I don't know that I'd be able to show my face in other countries.

Nothing wrong with that
What's that? All I heard was "I cant take criticism and different opinions."

I guess that's pretty good. I just played Risk and Stratego
oh shit here's FoC. Fuck YOU FoC I should just ban you for 24 hours so I feel better.
I think the most disappointing thing about McCain as president is that Americans are possibly THAT stupid
I guess that's pretty good. I just played Risk and Stratego
The reason is that most of the problems have not affected middle class Americans, who are the bulk of the votes.
The war is not real to them; they probably will never have a son or daughter enlist. They may know of a cousin or a nephew somewhere who is stationed in Iraq but they have no immediate family so it doesn't register much in their minds. There are some suburban communities where there are absolutely no citizens who are in the military.
The war is not real to them;
The debt is not real to them. They think America is still #1 (in what, who knows) and that the $9 trillion debt doesn't mean shit.
Most middle class Americans don't give a fuck about civil liberties either.
Ron Paul Derail express, choochoo
That would mean American's would have to sacrifice something. And look how that turned out.

There was a presidential candidate that talked about nothing other than civil liberties, leaving Iraq immediately and the national debt. Yet you guys didn't give him a chance.

The upside here is that the Democrats will have both the Senate and the House. So McCain and his crew can't run around buck wild like Bush and Cheney did after 2002.
you don't even have to fucking search for it, it's right there under a poster's avatar
The funny thing is that the Dems will definitely add to their lead in the Senate by like 5 seats at least, and probably add in the House too. I personally still think that the massive investment Obama is making in the ground game is not showing up in polls and that he'll still beat McCain this November, but yeah, it's not looking great right now. Never underestimate the stupidity of Americans, etc etc.

If I had to bet I'd say Obama will be blown out (Ohio, Florida, Virginia, Colorado for McCain). The fact that he's made no ground despite trying to paint McCain as Bush III is most telling. Dem control of the senate/congress will get larger though, but I doubt that will mean anything but nothing getting done with McCain as president.
What about that Zod guy?
Obama doesn't talk about leaving Iraq, heck he couldn't even promise to bring the troops home in his first term. And he certainly doesn't talk about the national debt or civl liberties.
yea i'm pretty cynical.
and thanks for the long response expirement. i think you are unfortunately right.
and MAF: i think you need to get away from the internet for a while. FOC is shaming you.
The return of :maf
Go back to MAF. The original.

this. and then relapse on your alcohol restriction for a night and let the bans fly.
Im trying to remember if I still have the avatar, its been so long.
Er you have more hope than me Triumph; I'm seriously starting to think this is a done deal. Obama's entire fucking message is not working. McCain was basically throwing darts at the wall for a month before something stuck: celebrity/energy/experience. Almost the exact same thing Hillary tried, although McCain's camp obviously learned a couple pointers.
McCain is the biggest fucking phony we've seen in some time (well except for Edwards). Yet despite being a total GOP bitch to the T, he's perceived as this wonderful maverick who transcends politics. Transcends, remember that word? It no longer applies to Obama who's now another politician. He lost his smile

2008 is the best year of my life.
u mad?
Obama blew it with his European jaunt. It stands to reason that the way to the American electorate's heart is not through popularity in Europe. In fact, I'd wager it's the opposite if anything.
Looking forward to the Second Cold War, seeing as I missed most of the first one. Go Ruskies!

I can't believe there is actually a chance Obama could lose this election. I don't know what I'd do if this happened. Part of me would never want to return to America, but part of me thinks I could never show my face abroad.
No matter how big of a douche McCain is, he is definitely NOT a step down from Bush. We can only go up.I can't believe there is actually a chance Obama could lose this election.

Just leave America after the results come in and if anybody asks, make sure you strongly express you had nothing to do with it. I have age on my side, I'm too young to vote this year, but I'm definitely leaving America if McCain is president next year. It can only go downhill.

If Bush has proven anything we can ALWAYS go down.SHUT UP GET IN MY FOOD THREAD
Maybe I'm just not pessimistic. He might be a dumb-dumb on some things, but he definitely seems more levelheaded than Bush on every level. Thought that's not hard. He'd have to fuck up really bad to be worse.No matter how big of a douche McCain is, he is definitely NOT a step down from Bush.

You never know, do you? We always think we've already been through the worst. After Hoover, we thought it would never be that bad. After Nixon, we thought it would never be that bad. But there's always a president that makes the last worst one look like one of the best by comparison. If history has taught me one thing, it's to never put your money on hope for America, because it's never there.
Heath Ledger dead, PD with knee issues, bad games, stupid television shows = Horrible 2008. :'(

2008 is pretty big change for me as well. I graduate university and head off to "the real world."ditto: as long as I don't take it too easy I'll be fine. Moving to a new city on my own as well which shall be interesting.
Fortunately, I already have a job lined up so much of the insecurity of the last semester is gone. As long as I pass my FE Exam and my classes, I will be fine.
The environment of the Republicans is much different now that many leading Republicans and Neocon think tanks (PNAC in particular) have lost all their power.
