9/18    What an energy expert!

        \_ Keep laughing. It's not WHAT you say but HOW you say it.
           Keep laughing. You're going to regret it.
           \_ If it's how you say it Palin has a serious problem.
              \_ No, she talks stupid enough that stupid people can understand her
                 and think she's smart. Doesn't matter if she's smart.
                 You don't get it cuz yer smart.
                 \_ DING DING DING. I'm a liberal and I completely understand
                    how the campaign works. My people over complicates
                    and over-interprets everything as if most people actually
                    care about issues. It's never 100% issues!!! Combine it
                    with the way you look. The confidence you have. The way
                    you talk and relate to average blue collar workers.  I
                    mean just observe Reagan who can relate well to everyone.
                    If my people want to appeal to the other 1/2 of the brain,
                    they need to start picking candidates who are smart enough
                    to look good and use carefully chosen dumbed down
                    languages. My people are excellent at numbers and issues
                    and if they can emulate the other 1/2 with good looks
                    and carefully chosen, dumbed down languages, we'd have
                    a recipe for success. Unfortunately, the Barak Obama
                    campaign architect isn't getting it, using the same
                    'ol ineffective methods as John Kerry that only appeal
                    to New Englanders and latte sipping yuppies.
                    \_ I see you didn't watch the clip.
                    \_ How is Obama up by five in the polls then?
                       \_ Five is hardly statistical victory. Besides
                          Dems have had a history of better poll results
                          but worst actual outcomes. Dems are young and
                          love to participate in polls but don't vote
                          because they have to work. Reps are older and
                          hate to participate in polls but they actually
                          have more time to vote.
                          \_ Oh, it is going down to the wire again, no doubt
                             about that. I think the superior Obama ground
                             game will give them the election this time, but
                             it still could go either way.
                             \_ How is it "superior"? It's superior in
                                the eyes of D's and a total farce in the
                                eyes of R's.
                                \_ There are something like 10X as many
                                   Democratic volunteers than Republican
                                   volunteers this time around. Even right
                                   wing sites like newsmax are noticing:

                                   You'll see.
                                   \_ Oh man, I hope you're right, because
                                      I've lost all hopes after 2000 and
                                      2008 seeing how lame our candidates
                                      have been and how blind voters were.
                                      I hope you're right.      -pp, Dem

                                         I already gave $4600, so I am tapped
                                         out, but I am going to Las Vegas to
                                         campaign for the week before the
                                         election.
                                         \_ Wow I donated $50. You're probably
                                            100x richer than 90% of the Dem
                                            voters and only 1/10000 as wealthy
                                            as elite R voters
                                         \_ Hahaha. How many hours of work does
                                            that 4600 represent? Where do you
                                            think it went? Actually I find this
                                            sad. There are a lot of charity
                                            type things you could have spent
                                            that on.
                                            \_ How much did you give to charity
                                               this year? I think getting the
                                               crooks out of the White House is
                                               the best gift I could give my

                                                   gonna pay more! LOL
                                                   \_ So in other words, you
                                                      don't give any money to

Good comment Marked as spam Reply Barack can fire his ad agency. Just put these clips as commercials, and no one with an IQ over 70 will vote GOP. Good comment Marked as spam Reply Palin is genius and as soon as she is elected Vice-President, the price of oil will tumble! OPEC members don't want a McCain/Palin administration, they want Obama to win and so do terrorists and all of our enemies around the world. Of course, it's a fungible commodity and they don't flag, you know, the molecules, where it's going and where it's not. But in the sense of the Congress today, they know that there are very, very hungry domestic markets that need that oil first," Palin said. "So, I believe that what Congress is going to do, also, is not to allow the export bans to such a degree that it's Americans that get stuck to holding the bag without the energy source that is produced here, pumped here.

Although national polls in the presidential race remain tight, Sen. John McCain is struggling to overcome an underreported factor that pollsters might not be taking fully into account: the dramatic increase in voters who identify themselves as Democrats. In one of the few upsides to the long, divisive nominating fight between Sens. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, Democrats in several battleground states spent months contacting and registering millions of new voters, previously inactive voters, even some Republicans they persuaded to switch parties. Just in the late primary contests alone, for example, campaign volunteers enlisted 200,000 new Democrats in Pennsylvania, where their edge has more than doubled since 2000, 165,000 in North Carolina and more than 150,000 in Indiana, according to state officials. As deadlines for voter registration start to pass, Democrats hope their efforts will help carry Obama to victory in competitive states such as Pennsylvania, Nevada, Ohio, and Florida. It might even help Democrats win traditionally hard-to-reach states with large black populations such as North Carolina, where officials expect voter participation to increase by 20 percent since 2004, and Virginia, which has added more than 280,000 voters to the rolls during the past four years. Democrats have made big registration gains in many of the 29 states that track voters by party affiliation, including the traditional battlegrounds of Nevada and Iowa, where there now are more registered Democrats than Republicans for the first time in a decade. No states have switched to the Republicans during the same period. In six states, including Pennsylvania, Iowa, and New Hampshire, Democratic registration grew by at least 3 percent, while Republican enrollment declined. We feel that our supporters are more enthusiastic than we've seen in previous cycles, Jon Carson, Obamas national field director, recently told the Associated Press. On May 10, before Obama officially clinched the Democratic nomination, launched the Vote for Change registration drive. Using the campaigns enormous voter database, the campaign dispatched staffers to all 50 states to train volunteers how to register voters. They are using some of the same micro-targeting techniques the Bush-Cheney campaign honed in 2004. Republicans, who have run superior ground games in the past two presidential campaigns, are counting on a formidable, high-tech get-out-the-vote operation that has helped them win those races. But since 2006, Democrats have added more than 2 million voters to the rolls in the 29 states that register voters according to party affiliation. Republicans have lost nearly 344,000 voters in the same states. Republicans caution against reading too much into their opponents headline-grabbing gains in registration. Many of those voters registered to participate in the historic primary between Clinton and Obama but plan to vote, as Democrats often do, for the Republican presidential nominee this fall. Party strategists also note that McCains selection of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate has helped them register large numbers of female voters as Republicans during the past few weeks. We hope that the hard work we've done in the past will provide us with a strategic advantage, Mike DuHaime, McCains political director recently, said. We will have the most technologically advanced ground operation ever. Unlike McCain, Obama has a personal history of working to register voters who are likely to support him. During the 1992 campaign, in which Bill Clinton was battling then-President Bush and Democrat Carol Moseley Braun was running to be the first black woman in the Senate, Obama moved to Chicago to run the local branch of Project Vote, a DC-based nonpartisan voter registration organization focused in low-income communities of color. Republicans are having fun mocking the work Obama did as a community organizer, said one Obama campaign aide, who asked to remain anonymous because he is not authorized to speak publicly for the campaign. John Ensign, a Nevada Republican who chairs the GOPs Senate campaign committee, said during a recent interview that he told Republican National Committee Chairman Mike Duncan that the party has neglected voter registration efforts in Nevada and elsewhere, and he urged Duncan to turn the efforts around. I thought they neglected voter registration, and I thought they needed to put more resources in, especially now that theyre getting those resources, Ensign said he told Duncan. Democrats had really increased their voter registration in Nevada. I hope you put them in because Nevada absolutely should go for McCain, especially with Palin on the ticket now. But dont take a chance with the voter registration numbers.
