The Reagan Era Over ?

Forbes: Another article that has Bush 43 and McCain destroying the Reagan Era. This article goes even further, the writes states the following on the Republican Campaign, " suggests that the GOP of the moment is now far closer to being the party of Joe McCarthy than John McCain. " President Ronald Reagan left Office in 1989, he died in 2004, the Gipper changed his era, Small government, strong defence and the end of the Cold War. The Gipper would face different challenges if was running today, Obama would not stand a chance against Reagan but McCain is no Ronald Reagan. Reagan it should be recalled was a great fan of FDR, and in the day was a Liberal. DON'T TELL HOLLYWOOD. Reagan was great because he was defined by his era but also changed that era. The Reagan Era lasted from 1980 to 2008. Even FDR after his death didn't have that much of an Era. The Republicans have to set out a new Agenda but also they have to be tough with Obama, he is a friend of a Marxist, Anarchist Terrorist, his Ex - Pastor is racist. The Obama Tax Plan will make the USA the sick of man the West. The left does not want to hear all that about Obama, the truth will set you free is a great line and true. Obama is the most liberal candidate ever to run for the Presidency. The pointing out of those facts does not make you another McCarthy. Obama will be President Elect on November 5, but also he could turn out be another Jimmy Carter, and of course it was then we had Ronald Reagan. Read of the Day.

We are all Joe !




Another good Ad by McCain, this really shows that we are all the Joe the Plumber when it comes to the tax hikes that Obama will have to do to keep his left wing base happy. The USA is about making it, working hard for yourself and your family, whats the point if Obama wants TO SPREAD THE WEALTH. Alpha Mark for Political Ad.

The Polls

Folks lets have a look at look at the polls.

The New Republic: Great Article on how pollsters view themselves and others in the business. Have to be honest this article made me laugh, they so seem to act like old irritated old women in some respects. I guess it shows they are human, but some need a hobby. Read of the Day.


WSJ
: Michael Barone writes the following, " But political polls are imperfect instruments. Reading them right is less a science than an art. We can trust the polls, with qualifications. " After New Hampshire and the bad polling of 2000 and 2004, it is wise to suspect polls till we get some real votes and even then it is a matter of time, it seems that Democrats and Republicans vote at different times, thus depending on the time you might get a false impression, Kerry was winning early in 2004 but then the Republican vote came in for Bush. Lets hope we don't get another 2000 or a Bradley Effect. A new Zogby Poll has Obama leading by nine percent, Obama 51.6% - McCain 42%. Again those not sure at 6.4%, interesting folks very interesting.

A Close 08 Race ?

IBD/TIPP: Reports that their tracking poll has the race a lot closer that most polls. The poll finds the following, Obama 46% - McCain 42%. The four percent lead is lower than my estimate for the final result, Obama 53% - McCain 47%. As Obama is seen as the winner by the Elite Media, there is more of a reason for the voter to look at the Obama plan for USA. Thus it will be interesting to see on election if there is a Bradley Effect, African - American Politicians polling better than actual votes. But if one looks at the margin of the Obama lead from 1% to over 10% it can be argued that Obama will be the next President Elect, it will be his choice if he wants to be Jimmy Carter mark 11 or Ronald Reagan. The not sure at 12% is very interesting, not sure or not wanting to tell the pollster they are voting for McCain.


AP: Also reports a very close race, Obama 44% - McCain 43%. If Obama Campaign would not lose sleep over these two polls, its going to be Obama, us of the conservative view point will have to wait for another Ronald Reagan. Lets recall when there have been a Democratic President and Congress, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton, they mess it up sooner or later, thus after two years of an Obama Administration the Republicans can take Congress again and then the Presidency two years later, Obama is good but he is no Bill Clinton or Ronald Reagan.
