Looking back, did the Dems make good choices from 2006 - 2008?

1. Would Hillary have been better for the top of the ticket and Obama... well MAYBE for a VP?

2. Should the Dem Congressional leadership have done more (they got NOTHING done)?

3. Should Obama have HUMILIATED Hillary Clinton in front of the entire world by making sure everyone knew HILLARY WASN'T EVEN VETTED for VP?

4. If you voted for Obama in the Primaries, do you regret it?

5. Should Obama have picked Biden?

6. Did the Dems, by pushing a preemptive "the war is lost" tirade and accuse US troops of war crimes without any evidence, was that a good idea?

7. Would it have helped Obama, if he put his prideful self aside and admit the Surge has been a gigantic success and that he was wrong, thus showing he is human and can admit mistakes, rather than acting like a dopey windbag and still refusing to say he was wrong, yet the Surge worked?

8. Should the LIberal media have attacked Palin on the personal level, calling her nasty name, fabricating stories and fake pics of her, to destroy and smear her?? Was that a good idea??

9. Should Obama have created this "fake messianic image" for himself, as some sort of different politician and "above the fray" and "will take public financing" when it was all really a way to win the Primaries and was all a fake? Was that wise to deceive people in the Primaries like that???

10. Should the Dems have started this "Drilling for Oil and Natural Gas War" against the GOP, when the American people want to drill 70% - 30% against?


Bonus question: Do you still think Obama has a chance to win in Nov 2008?

Yes. I think polls are a little skewed right now as young people do not tend to respond to polls. Obama numbers should be higher than what it has been if those young Obama supporters vote.

The Dem voters have made multiple mistakes the last three decades allowing their party to be hijacked.
Obama is on the slippery slope of defeat. The country is too moderate for anyone too far left or right to be elected.

Fine, say all polls are wrong. But are you seen the shift in momentum, excitement, and how the Independents being interviewed that are moving towards McCain-Palin?

The media is destroying Obama by attacking Palin on a personal level. Just today, that nutcase Joyce Behar (sp?) from that dopey show, "The View" went on to attack Palin's Christian faith.

You think that is helpful to B. Hussein??? That will drive Christians to the polls in droves to defend McCain-Palin.

Don't you guys get it???

Obama is a far-left extremist. He is for the EXACT same far-left Liberal ideals pushed by Jimmy Carter in the 1970s. It seems like "new ideas" to younger people (like me, who did not live through the devastating days of Jimmy Carter), but in reality, it's Carter 2008, not Obama 2008.

I agree, the country wants a semi-liberal Moderate like McCain and will accept a reform Social Conservative as VP.... but 2 TRIAL LAWYERS and #1 and #3 Most Liberal Senators on the same ticket?!?! The Dem choices are crazy.
