Obama never drew those crowds until his campaign was well established. Give Palin some time.

Ok, if you think it will help but time won't change too much by 2012 unless Obama does something real dumb. 2012 will be his election to loose which is normal for a first term president.

What do you mean "if" he does something dumb ?

I had a great point. and you know it. Palin's crowds will continue to grow, and now she's out of the McCain shadow, look out lefties.......

It's "shoo-in" unless you were thinking about the high heels the press made such a fuss over! :laugh:

I wouldn't say she's had her 15 minutes of fame..... cause I think she will continue to get attention in the years ahead. I do think it will be mostly negative. And at this point I don't think she will have a roll in 2012.

P.S. I was wrong once before.

Should a woman rule over men if she becomes the President of the USA? What does the Bible say?

The Bible doesn't address this issue. Show me where the Bible says a woman cannot be a president..

And I will show you where a woman led Israel... Can anyone say "Deborah"?
Women are just as qualified as men are.

And as far as I am concerned, she is more qualified than The One we will be getting in a few days....

Well, if you accept Deborah then you should have no problem accepting Barak... :laugh: :laugh:

Jdg 5:1 Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying,

Obviously you found a good number of reasons to support Palin which is great. My point, she was on the last ballot with all those things on the table and didn't get the vote. I don't think any of the attributes you listed is a reason the left should fear Palin.



Again, these conservative ideas were on the ballot against a guy who said he would raise taxes on the top 5%, put us in more debt with a new health care program and had just voted in a $700 Billion bailout package with a promise that more was on the way. He was said to be a no eperienced socialist, Marxist, Muslim, big spender that palled around with terrorist and this guy won the election.

You have to come to grips with the truth that a lot of people vote for the person and not their ideas. Unfortunately Conservatives or Liberal ideas don't win elections, most people vote for who they like...

McCain drew about 800 in FL.
Palin drew about 3K to 10K
Obama drew over 100K.

See how it works?

I am sorry, conservative ideas were not on this ballot. McCain was the head of the ticket and he is a liberal. So yo had liberal vs. liberal.

Obama won because he is black.

Here is my thinking on politics.

We are all different and if folks would vote from a Biblical perspective, well, liberalism would end right away.

But here is the thing. I don't believe that we pick a president. God chooses leaders.

How many times in the Bible do you find God putting someone in leadership because the folks deserved it?

America is stuck with Obama because that is what we deserve.

You want to kill unborn babies? Well here is your chance. Obama will do all he can short of performing the abortion himself to promote it.

You want illegal immigration and amnesty? Here'sssssssss Obma!

I for one believe that judgment has come to America. How far will God have to go to get Americas attention?

I was gonna write in Millard Filmore. He is dead and can't do any worse than Bush or Obama.:flower:

It's very hard to tell but I'm going out on a limb here, I am betting you didn't vote for the democratic ticket?

Another one issue Bible reader... What do you guys do with the other pages?

Liberalism is the foundation of God's Government. God's Government had one leader, a Judge or King and all the tribes shared with each other and collectively they took care of the Levites.

I am my Brothers keeper which is something the Lord placed in my heart... :godisgood:

Nope.

There are not enough black Americans voting to put Obama over the top. McCain didn't even pull Bush's 2004 numbers.

Yes, McCain was a weak candidate, but race was by no means the only factor.

I totally disagree. I voted for Barack Obama and I couldn't be happier that he won.

I believe there is hope to restore the prestige of the United States now that the 8 year George W. Bush reign of error will end at noon on January 20, 2009. :)

I look forward to the liberals not being able to complain about Bush anymore. They will have only themselves or Obama to blame when things go wrong. (Note: I am not a Bush supporter).

The Wash Post here had a love fest with Obama. It was unbelievable; it was like a teenage crush.

Didn't DC vote like 92% for Obama? If so, that would be the only way the media could stay in business. I don't think they could have gave away a paper with McCain Palin on the front in DC...

Well, at least not in a newsstand not located on the hill. I guess that 8% must be somewhere???

Me, too. We progressives won't have George W. Bush or any Republican in the White House to complain about for at least the next four years. I thank God for that. :godisgood:


By the way, I voted for George W. Bush twice so I have as much right as anyone
to complain about him. :)
