-Him refusing public funding.
-His old campaign logo looking too much like the Presidential seal.
-Giving his acceptance speech in a stadium.
-Those "bitter" comments made 4 months ago (and almost 9 months before the election.)
-The DNC FL/MI crisis that even Hillary accepted the resolution on and no one outside of Hillary is 44 cares about anymore.

Based on the attention on this forum on would be led to believe these are the top issues of the election.

So McCain's "100 years in Iraq" comments won't be an issue, right?

Those are kind of easy to keep bringing up through ads and whatnot (much like Kerry's "I voted for the $87 billion before I voted against it."). McCain would look rather petty to do so in this case.

I forgot to mention what percentage in Ohio and Colorado are going to vote against Obama out of disgust at his arrogance for campaigning in North Dakota and Alaska.

Not when it can gain him votes with skeptical blue collar voters (especially those in the area that Obama focused on when he made these comments).

That had such a huge effect on the PA primary after all. Considering that Hillary won by what you claimed earlier was the absolutely minimum she could win PA by (someone made a comment about how she might get a win by 9 points and you replied "She's winning PA by at least 9.")

Man that post just me feel good reminding me of how we deleted that stupid whore and your beloved goddess who you claimed I was going to have to support with such certainty. Ah, awesome!

That's kind of a dickish thing to say.

Much like any comment Phil made about Democrats having to support Hillary circa 2007.

Is that surprising to you?

Anyway, BRTD, it only takes a few thousand of those people to stay home or switch their vote to swing 21 electoral votes my guy's way. Just remember that. And keep up that arrogant attitude, too!

See my point about Hillary's 9 point margin of victory.

(And according to polls it's going to be more than a "few" thousand.)

Uh, what am I responding to? My prediction that it would be at least a nine point victory? OMG I WAS WRONG!!!11 Now go whack off to that, Zachy. I know you didn't get much action tonight.

No you weren't wrong actually. My point being then that Obama did the absolute maximum he could do in PA.

And that's not that great when it's still almost a double digit loss.

Which is moot at this point because Obama is the nominee.

But not a moot point when that's still a wide enough margin to include plenty of people that absolutely won't vote for Obama and can have a great impact in a swing state.

And it's not showing up in polls. (Watch Phil resort to the Bradley Effect excuse again.)

Oh, and if you believe that there is no Bradley Effect in the General then you really are a horse's ass.

Smiley

possibly MI (and FL is gone).  It gives people MI a reason not to vote for him.

The only person who could possibly make Dick Morris look like a solid political analyst.
