I agree with you about Mike Huckabee. He nailed it on the head when he said, “they come to you, but I come from you.” That sums him up perfectly.

I had the coolest thing happen 2 days ago. I received a “twitter” from Mike Huckabee! Who knew!? Now if he can twitter….

I think that the “Hussein” obsession and questions about lapel pins, “rhymes with Osama” and such are going to make the Republicans sound like petty idiots, and certainly doesn’t give voters a reason to vote against him, much less for their guy.

Then again, if I were in charge of marketing for McCain, I’d be pretty desperate, too, but that’s a different subject.

President Bush lifted the executive ban on American drilling. Now if we could just get Congress to lift the Congressional ban and “leave us alone to solve our own problems” we might get through this. The first step is for Speaker Pelosi to allow the discussion to be brought to the floor.

Pelosi was so upset when Bush lifted the ban that she gave out his phone number and told people to call him and complain. One of her fellow Congressmen did unto her what she did unto Bush. He released her number and encouraged us to call her at 202-225-0100 to express our feelings.

McCain would be wise to choose Huckabee as his VP.

Polls and considerable research point to Hillary to be the more formidable candidate in the GE. The Republican operatives take note that she still retains her delegates and his polling numbers are faltering and do not wish to upset the DNC apple cart too soon.

Yet the Republicans cannot remain entirely silent and so allow the wilder assertions to be bandied about in mean time. Meanwhile they lie in wait with more substantive issues/items inregards to Obama.

This is a risky gambit to be sure. It may allow Obama and the DNC to frame the narrative of the election that McCain may not be able to reverse in time. The electoral climate tilts heavily against the Republicans this cycle and will take shrewed and daring tactics to overcome.

Like the other “Maverick” in our recent collective conscience from Top Gun. McCain is not one to play it safe and often pulls out of a fate of certain doom at the last moment. Witness the recovery in his all but doomed candidacy during the primaries. That he is now the nominee is as implausible as the most outrageous Hollywood storyline.

If he wins the White House come November it will be one the greatest political upsets in our history. McCain will have shown to have the tactical skills of Hannible when he crossed the alps.

GO JOHN!

1. People will pay even less attention than they are paying now. My husband told me yesterday about a poll that said 50% of voters do not know that Obama is Pro-abortion (and worse). People don’t care about issues, they only care about the packaging.

2. Those who are paying attention would come to their senses and realize that neither candidate should be president.

One thing that amazes me is the fact many people will vote for Obama simply because of his skin color, not even considering his views on important issues. In my opinion, Senator Obama is a very dangerous man, and should not be elected.

I know someone who used to comment on Obama’s lack of patriotism (no flag on his lapel), not saluting the flag, not acknowledging God, etc., but has now changed his tune. He recently said, “it’s time for a black man to be in the White House.” Reading between the lines, what he really said was “let affirmative actions work at the highest level.”

We must bombard heaven with prayer, asking God to deliver our great nation. There is always hope.
