Gotta love these drive-by posts
I love when folks stop by here, post a quick blurb. Especially when they put in nothing to support it, and they expect everyone to take it as fact. I guess we are supposed to take everything posted as fact.
No need for personal potshots....
that actually reflect worse on you than the people you ridicule.
Not according to Rasmussen....
according to Rasmussen McCain is up 51% to 44%. Win Ohio, win the election.
Rasmussen said
I was listening to Rasmussen interviewed and he said that by having all these fraudulent registrations it shows up in the polls (you know, the same polls that change hour to hour and don't mean anything). Like you said, maybe they register but what happens when it comes to the actual voting. The only thing (to me) that bogus registrations do is boost the polls up.
He also said that if "everyone" was for Barack Obama and he was so great and nobody wanted McCain or a republican in this next term Obama should be way way head in the polls like by 20 or 30%. But because the polls are showing McCain and Obama pretty much 50/50 give or take 4 or 5 points that goes to show you how close they really are.
Goes to show me (coming from Mr. Pollster himself) that polls don't mean anything and will not affect the way I and most people vote.
Rasmussen poll results:
Sarah Palin has made a good first impression. Before being named as John McCain’s running mate, 67% of voters didn’t know enough about the Alaska governor to have an opinion. After her debut in Dayton and a rush of media coverage, a new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey finds that 53% now have a favorable opinion of Palin while just 26% offer a less flattering assessment.
Palin earns positive reviews from 78% of Republicans, 26% of Democrats and 63% of unaffiliated voters. Obviously, these numbers will be subject to change as voters learn more about her in the coming weeks. Among all voters, 29% have a Very Favorable opinion of Palin while 9% hold a Very Unfavorable view.
By way of comparison, on the day he was selected as Barack Obama’s running mate, Delaware Senator Joseph Biden was viewed favorably by 43% of voters.
In the new survey, 35% of voters say the selection of Palin makes them more likely to vote for McCain while 33% say they are less likely to do so. Most Republicans say they are more likely to vote for Palin and most Democrats say the opposite. As for voters not affiliated with either major party, 37% are more likely to vote for McCain and 28% less likely to do so. Those numbers are a bit more positive than initial reaction to Biden.
After McCain's announcement, Clinton issued a statement saying, "We should all be proud of Governor Sarah Palin's historic nomination, and I congratulate her and Senator McCain. While their policies would take America in the wrong direction, Governor Palin will add an important new voice to the debate." Palin is now viewed favorably by 48% of women. That figure includes 80% of Republican women, 23% of Democratic women, and 61% of women not affiliated with either major party.
Polls are what they are and change like people change socks. However, these are good preliminary numbers. Time will tell how it all plays out.
Current Rasmussen Reports
Poll shows Obama leading 260 electoral votes to McCain 167 votes. If you take the "likely states" the votes change to Obama 300, McCain 174.
Rasmussen has lots of interesting polls on its site, for what they are worth, but it is interesting to watch them change week-to-week and some of them even day-to-day.

Sorry - the Approval Index is by Rasmussen
+30 the day after his inauguration...down...down...down...a few blips up...but mostly DOWN. Not hard to see why, of course - it's called buyer's remorse. Unfortunately, there's no Lemon Law when it comes to kissing a political toad and learning to our sorrow that it really is just a toad - and was never anything else. In 2012, we'll try a different toad.

Excuse me. I gave the AI exactly as reported by Rasmussen.
Misrepresent my eye.
And only 37% think the country is going in the right direction - I didn't even mention that little number.
The fact that this is a daily poll makes absolutely no difference because the +30 number he started off with was a daily number as well, so it's comparing apples to apples. All you have to do is look at the trend to see it's going DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN with - exactly AS I SAID - a few blips up.
Galls ya, doesn't it?
Nice try, but no cigar and/or kewpie doll for yew today!
Go to the Rasmussen poll if you want a TRUE representation of polls...nm

You have to check and double check every single thing they say. They're not capable of telling t
truth about anything. It's getting very boring and tedious to read their crap. Why won't they stay on their own board like they tell us to do?
Love, love, love John Stewart. . .
the bit about the open microphone on McCain during the debate was brilliant!!! I laughed until I literally cried!! By the way, Michelle Obama was warm, intelligent, sincere and very much First Lady material!!!
Yet another drive by?
Nothing to add.
It's true because what, you said so????
Wow, was that a drive-by?
Making a posting like that is pretty ignorant in my eyes...
You and your drive bys................sm
Let me lay this out for you.
The post that I responded to stated that this had nothing to do with the US which was a response to JTBB's post which said, and I quote: "No, this one lays directly at the feet of Bush. That makes 3 wars, an economic crisis and an environmental meltdown that he is now handing down."
So Bush was an element in this conversation.
Apparently it is you who cannot follow a discussion. Quit trying to play board police because you're doing a lousy job at it.
My guess is you probably drive one of
those gas-hog pickup trucks. Gas for blood is not rhetoric -- why else would we still be there? This country has an addiction far worse than any drug and it is time to give it up!! You greedy pubs love consuming anything and everything!!
And, it is a very short drive!
xxx
Yeah, right. Take a look at your own drive-by.
Go take a long, hard look and then tell it to yourself. Maybe it will give you some insight into how you come across to the rest of the world.
I think it all shows that Christianity is valued with the love of the dollar, not the love of Christ

You might try reading all the posts before you do your little drive-bys...
never said anything about "book learnin." What I said was I objected being talked to in a condescending and elitist manner. Never said anything about education...other than the poster I was referring to looked down on folks that she perceived was not as well educated as SHE was.
As to the Mein Kampf remark...too idiotic to even address. LOL. Geezzz.
Oh I see....just drive by and repeat the same opinions over and over.
Thank you for clarifying that for me.
I thought you hated drive bys>

I love democrats! I love most of the past democratic presidents (sm)
I would love for there to be a good democrat I could vote for. I want good leadership and I want change. But I truly believe to purposely ignore a symbol speaks volumes. He is not just asking the symbol to wait, he is ignoring it on purpose. Avoiding it on purpose. Why do you think that is? There is a reason. Can you not see it?
Another drive-by potshot over the bow...also infantile...but definitely, it appears...
your style. Sigh.
Robot's hard-drive needs rebooting.
Why don't you just climb into your Range Rover, drive
You obviously 'know', so just go take everyone by the and and lead them through it. Then, when you're all done, you can lie back on the genuine leather front seat, re-apply your lipstick, and have yourself a cigarette.
Devolving into personal slams in drive-bys usually indicates
you have nothing of substance to add, MS nm. Please indicate what it was in my 2-liner that you found so offensive.
Wont matter much - who can afford to drive
Price of gas will be back to $4/gal. - and THEN some - by next summer. Oil co. CEOs are as bad as the Wall-Street $$-ho's.
With all due respect, Democrat, you have no idea whether the drive by posters sm
who post anonymously on the conservative board are not some who post here regularly. You just don't know that. None of us (unless we are friends on the outside) know that about any of us. So that's a little disingenuous. Sometimes, I have sure felt like changing my initials to avoid posters who constantly slam me. But I have found a better place to post. Just dropped over for the day. Have a good one.
Only drive-bys seem to be ruining perfectly adult conversations
We all were having good conversations and even adult disagreements until the usual drive-by suspects chimed in and make is a potty-mouth bash fest. Democrat might have lost control a little bit, but we all do at some point. You did your usual leftist troll duties by coming here and sabatoging and decent debates in process. You are not a liberal. You are someone who is so filled with hate that you cannot stand when conservatives and liberals are actually dialoguing. Yeah, it gets heated, but you are not mature enough nor do you have substance enough to tolerate adult conversation. You are a dive bomber, and you are the reason we have to be separated.
You and your minions are pretty sad people indeed.

I love the class of liberals....just love it...
ignore the truth and attack personally. Shows a lot of tolerance.
"it tells me to love them as I would love myself"...(sm)
This must be why you so obviously love Muslims? 
You do realize that you contradict yourself on just about every other post you make? ROFL..
Geez....
right back at you, in spades.
Again, you never answered my question about is war ever justified? For any reason?
Children all over the world have no voice or very little voice. Fine. Should we just sit back and allow that to continue? I don't think so.
I never said a woman who had an abortion has no morals. I said I...me myself...I...believe abortion is morally wrong. If I...myself...made the choice to have an abortion that would be a morally wrong choice. Just like if I shot my neighbor. Morally wrong choice. If you shot your neighbor...morally wrong choice. When you lie...which we have all done...morally wrong choice. Does that mean we have no morals...no. Means we made a morally wrong choice. You are a very black and white person for a liberal. Generally liberals live in a world of gray.
It is no more a one-issue race for me than it is for you. YOU are one of the people you talk about. YOU would NEVER vote for a pro-life candidate. You need to take a long look in the mirror piglet.
I still wonder why you are so violently opposed to someone speaking for the child. Why on EARTH do you have such an issue with that?
Maybe it is NOT my business whether a woman has an abortion or not. What I think IS my business is that a child is killed in the process. And I feel that should be SOMEBODY's business. So sorry if that aggravates you. But will not stop me.
And how, in the name of all that is holy or NOT holy, can you say that abortion in any way, shape or form equals HUMANITY?
Geeezzzzz.
Oh geez....
conspiracy theories 101. Are you talking the Charlie Sheen version of "the truth?" sigh.
Geez. lol. nm
nm
Oh geez
Now that's gonna be the excuse huh? The machines flipped votes from O to McCain??? Get a grip people...I guess O will try absolutely anything to "win"..I envision another "Bush/Gore" episode after this election. I'am sure O will not lose with dignity...
geez, really
you know that was exactly what i was thinking! as soon as i saw my mistake i thought oh no, that lady is gonna crawl out from under her rock with her red pen!
Geez, ought to tell my son that.
Maybe DH can use that tactic. Nah. He's a pussycat most of the time. I guess I could aggravate him on a day of an interview about politics, but then his BP would go off the scale. 
Oh, geez....
...now you've gone and told somebody what to do. You know how people feel about that on this board! Don't yell. Don't tell me what to do. Don't expect me to think.
Ah, geez...
I got in so much trouble for posting the E word!
Geez, what grossed me
was the thing with the little girl and the deer. What dark, lurid corners of his brain did this stuff come from? Yuck! And these people wag their fingers in our faces about morality? They need to look in the mirror.
Oh geez. The least you could do is get a new line...
you asked me that same question under a different moniker not long ago. At least get some new material. Geez! And as far as emailing you...not in this lifetime. I did that once...once burned, many time shy. You guys can get pretty hateful on this board, but a sailor could take lessons from you when you are uncensored...LOL Had enough of potty-mail all-tolerant liberals to last me a lifetime. And anybody knows you can have more than one email going to the same place. Geez. Get a new schtick. This one is oldddd.
Geez. No one is bashing you....
You post under both monikers and denied it for a long time, then finally admitted it. Not bashing, just the truth. And when I started posting as observer on the conservative board and liberal board when both existed, no one else was using that moniker and did not, and I did not know you had used it (yet ANOTHER one) before I started using it. No one said anything to me when I started using it, including YOU, until the issue was raised about Teddy/Taiga. So, you are the architect of fiction, not me. And as to portraying the truth...I suppose one must be able to recognize it. No synopsis to it, Teddy/Taiga. The truth, and no need to check the archives. You know and I know the truth, and anyone who has been posting and following this knows the truth too. What I don't understand is why you are making such a big deal about it. You posted using two monikers, denied you were doing so when confronted, and finally copped to it. It was not a big deal then and is not a big deal now.
Geez. You kill me....
however, I do like the moniker "spiteful little vixen." I may get stationery printed.
Good grief...you are the one exhibiting intolerance and hatred...yikes, someone must have spit in your post toasties this morning!!
You have slipped off the deep end, my friend. I don't know what cliches you mean, but if you are talking about the prayer at the top that was sincere...try to get hold of this, although your monster ego may not allow you to...there are OTHER posters here who live in South Texas or have family there, perhaps some I don't even know about, that was posted out of genuine concern and although I think you are several bricks shy of a load, I don't want to see you blown off the face of the earth, and whether you can get off your high horse down here to where there is enough air for your brain to work properly, I don't want illegals blown off the face of the earth either. I just want them to obey the law, come here legally, pay taxes like the rest of us and live happily ever after. And for that you want me tarred and feathered. Go figure.
And now that I have ascended to your level of sniping (thank you, I am learning much from you about verbal abuse), here's hoping I never do again...you have that area well covered.
What happened to that sabbatical? Gotta have the last word...sister, you got it. LOL. Signed, the spiteful little vixen....LOL
Geez. Of course I would be defending her....
her wealth has NOTHING to do with it. She is a first-time offender. You hate her because she is rich, that's obvious. I don't care how much money she has or does not have. She is a first offender. She should be treated like any other first offender. Barack Obama AND John McCain are for rehab, not incarceration, for first-time offenders. Neither of them tie it to wealth. Barack Obama is a millionaire. What if we were talking about Michelle Obama instead of Cindy McCain? You would be screaming at the top of your lungs to defend Michelle Obama and guess what...SO WOULD I. Even though I don't want her husband to be President and even though they are RICH. Your bias is showing.
Geez. Now you are using the hurricane...
the evening shift has arrived. Good evening! did you even look at the video of your dem buddy yucking it up? You don't have any moral high ground here.
Yeah...I be bad. Geez. lol. (nm)
nm
DOn't have to prove it....HE SAID IT. Geez...
did you read his letter? And I have been doing more research...you should too. This is not the end of the Saul Alinsky connection.
geez sally, is it also your god given right...sm
to be banned from posting on this web site? Because your heading that way. We'd be better off without you, but to be fair, why don't you just clean up your act?
There is a rule against profanity. You might want to look into that one, posted by the Moderators.

Before you start reading/making posts on politics board:
- Beware of Flamed messages & Flamers here.
- Politics board is moderated on a less-stringent level to allow freedom to express opinions related to issues discussed.
As long as we realize that not everyone is going to agree and we shouldn't wear our feelings on our sleeves, a little more oversight on here would be good. What we do not want to see is overzealous moderators that ban every thread that may be controversial on politics board.
If it's lewd, pornographic, slanderous, blatantly mean spirited, then that's one thing. Otherwise, let people express his or her opinion and move on. If you don't like someone, just ignore that person. It's not rocket science, you know?
Use the Golden Rule if all fails. Trolls are going to come over here from other sites/forums to irritate us. Once they see that no one replies to their senseless posts, they'll stop. Again, ignore them. It's easy!
Please don't see this sticky message as a license to flame, but as a license to open discussion.
Geez.... RANT ON!
