John McCain's Path to Victory

John McCain failed to prove to the independents that he was all that different. He pandered to the Bush base and used Swift boat tacicts that drove us away.

His choice of Sarah Palin left us screeming "What is he doing?" I was leaning to Obama from the first, but McCain stepped into the mud, bit his foot and just shrugged it off.

If Obama is not elected as president it will be because of mass voter fraud. I hope the Republican party learns from this and next time runs an honest, fair election. Something they have not done sense Ike was elected.

As a Christian, I find Sarah Palin and her brand of Christianity to be one of the best reasons to vote for Obama. It is the kind of Christianity that completely misunderstands biblical teachings about political power and that has allowed itself to be manipulated by a Republican leadership that cares nothing about religion except for its ability to get out the vote.

As we can see by how easily conservative Christians are being swayed by accusations of socialism and un-americanism, the republican religious base has turned patriotism and capitalism into idols. We do not need four more years of this mess (much less two more decades of a conservative-stacked Supreme Court).

Many Americans are moderate and McCain in principle should have appealed to the masses based on his ability to cross the aisles and his willingness to buck trends. In the past he was seen as a maverick but that message wasn't told in a compelling way. Even more damaging is picking a Vice President running mate who has even less experience that his running mate. His arguement that Obama doesn't have enough experience runs hollow by his choice of Palin. Many wanted a reason to vote for McCain and he effectively drove them away.

I think it is one thing to decide that one candidate is better than another. It is quite another to state that one candidate will be the savior indicating that the country will be destroyed by another candidate. Especially since the candidate that you are purporting as the savior has been very closely allied with the current administration that has sent us into a recession. I am unsubscribing to to your daily inspiration because I do not want this propaganda in my email. I am praying that as a Christian, you will ask God if this is his will his view or your own. Is this truly the way you believe Jesus would have handled these comments. God Bless You!

"If McCain wins on the 4th, I'll KNOW this country has totally lost it's collective mind!"

If Obama (a man who spent over twenty years under the mentorship of his pastor who said "the US of KKK A" "God Damn America" and believes America caused 911 and invented the AIDs virus to harm black people) wins today, I'll KNOW that this country's majority does NOT honor America and all she has stood for over the generations. I will also KNOW that Americans have fallen under God's judgment.
