November won’t be close. McCain won’t satisfy the repub base, meaning no turnout in November. Hillary wins on a landslide and has her ‘mandate’ to ram chairman Mao down our throats.

What have Republicans got to be enthused about?

The Republican coalition is broken, the base is disinterested. Why would this be surprising?

Maybe, then again the same thing happened in 1988.

If 400,000 in Missouri were ready to vote for Hillary and only 200,000 for McCain, do you see any way that changes in November?

Taking into consideration all the hatred of Bush, I believe this is a great motivating factor in their turnout. They are so close now they can taste it.

I will say that the mad dash for all of the drug addicts, hippies, and high school kids to caucus for B. Hussein Obama tonight here in Boise was nauseating and discouraging all at the same time...

Go look in the archives.. 2004 was filled with stories about Dim turnout and enthusiasm, how now incumbent trailing in January ever won, blah blah.

Lots of rats came out to vote because there was a real race between Obama and Clinton.
Come November the same people that voted in 2004 and supported the GOP will be there again with a lot more urgency:
One interesting fact about Missouri is its status as a bellwether of national politics.
Missouri has a longer stretch of supporting the winning presidential candidate than any other state, having voted with the nation in every election since 1904 with the exception of Adlai Stevenson in 1956.
In 2004, George W. Bush won the state's 11 electoral votes by a margin of 7 percentage points with 53.3 percent of the vote.
Missouri has a very notable urban-rural split, as Democrat John Kerry only won three of the state's 115 counties: St. Louis County, Ste. Genevieve, and Jackson County (which contains most of Kansas City).-wiki 16 posted on 02/05/2008 9:59:02 PM PST by Rome2000 (Peace is not an option) .......................................................

Democrats were enthusiastic about crossing over in the primaries in 2000 to vote for McCain as well.
They can’t be counted on crossing the aisle in the general election, however.
They want to win by any means necessary.

Dems always “poll” well early, when the MSM can more easily manipulate the polls.
Republicans inevitably improve in the polls as the season grinds on.
Stick to the issues - do not atttack candidates personally. If we stick to the issues, Conservatism eventually wins.

I just can't see it. The turnout for the rats is staggering. McCain just simply won't turn out the vote. I see a 45% to 30% win for the rat in November. 20 posted on 02/05/2008 10:01:21 PM PST by The Iceman Cometh (Evil has a name and it is Hillary!) ..........................................................

OK it’s a bet. The Dems are going to win by the largest landslide in history. On the bright side I have better than 4 years until I have to worry about who gets my vote for President.

To: Rome2000 You have to remember it is now marxism that is desired by the ignorant masses. We have been convinced that things are so bad off caused by evil capitalism and the rich republicans(not the Kennedys of course) that the people are begging for “change”. Just what do you think obama and hillary mean by change? They are more well funded than us and have global support. Welcome to the new global tyranny. I wish I could say that an armed revolution in the spirit of the American Revolution could do the trick but reality is that we wouldn't even come close to people understanding it let alone participating in it. 22 posted on 02/05/2008 10:06:45 PM PST by Archon of the East (Universal Executive Power of the Law of Nature) ........................................................... To: DavidThomas Well the fact of the matter is that many Republicans stayed home tonight (although I did get out there in the pouring rain to cast my vote for Mitt Romney in Massachusetts).
Let's face it, the Obama/Clinton race is far more exciting than the Huckabee/McPain/Romney tilt. In fact, I would not be surprised if many Republican leaning Independents crossed over to cast a vote against the Clintons (my wife was one of them).
However, I think that Americans will turn out in force in November to vote against either Obama or the Clintons (I'm thinking it will be Obama). I'm just hoping it's not McPain that is the GOP nominee.
I, for one, have not lost hope that McPain will not be our nominee. 23 posted on 02/05/2008 10:10:52 PM PST by SamAdams76 (I am 1 days away from outliving Nicolette Larson (Mitt is It)) ................................................................. To: DavidThomas
A. They came so close in ‘00 they almost got away with grand larceny in full view of the country; B. Came close again in ‘04, but Ohio was more transparent than FLA; C. They been out of power for eight years and left in shame then;
What would be a surprise would be if they WEREN’T energized on a double dose of black beauties.
