Neither side of the political spectrum has a strangle hold on ridiculous scare tactics. I won't list them for fear of being accused of deflection, but when you say "usual", I can cite "usual" leftist scare tactics as well.

Picture? Could make a great LOLcat-type image ;)

Really? Please do.

Yes, scaeagles, for our edification and delight, please share two or three.


And while you're at it, please provide any concrete examples of Democrats perpetrating voter fraud, when it's the Republicans' exclusive province.

They stole Ohio in 2004, and it's been PROVEN with photographic evidence of hundreds of thousands of altered ballots, far more than the margin of defeat for Kerry.

Now, instances of voter machines registering McCain votes upon pressing the Obama buttons are turning up at early voter locations all over the country.


Republicans are fearmeisters and theives and I challenge you to demonstrate any such thing on the Democrat side.

Meanwhile, ACORN so scrupulously investigates their incoming voter registrations for errrors (because, yes, there's financial incentive in gathering them) that they turned all the errors found in Nevada immediately over to the Secretary of State ... a Repulican who prompty cried VOTER FRAUD and started this whole completely BOGUS smear campaign on ACORN as yet another Republican tactic of voter suppression, which they practice - AGAIN EXCLUSIVELY - even more virulently than they do voter fraud.


FEAR AND ELECTION THEFT ARE THE PROVINCE OF REPUBLICANS. I dare you to demonstrate otherwise.

Back on topic for a moment:

The Obama campaign is showing no signs of coasting on this lead:

Also interesting in that article was what Obama's campaign manager, David Plouffe, had to say about sharing the huge amount of campaign donations they've received with other Dems running for other offices. The response was that they weren't going to hand them money, instead they're using the money to put people on the streets to get democrats to register and vote. And you know, if I were a Dem running for office, I'd be cool with that. I mean, lord knows they've proven that they know how to get sh*t done with that money thus far, why stop them now?

On the crumbling from within front, I can't think of anything worse that could happen to this country than 1) to revisit the McCarthy era where the awesome might of the government is put behind investigations of the loyalty of its citizens and 2) to have this country declare itself officially or semi-officially a Christian nation. Republicans are going down this road--again--now. Probably most of them don't mean it, but that doesn't make it much better.

Well said, SL

I think it's going to take a prolonged period of extreme liberalism to get the Republican party to swing moderate again (in other words, the Dems will have to get so over-the-top liberal that the moderates start gravitating to the other party, and the other party starts to see even moderate stances as a win.) I also think it would take a very long time for that to happen.

Also from that article

It will be a huge statement if AZ goes to Obama.

Have you guys seen this series of photos by Callie Shell? I actually teared up. Make sure you keep clicking "show more images" because there are some terrific ones down the line.
