On November 5th, the most hated man in the world by Republicans will NOT be Barack Obama

It will be John McCain.


John McCain will be eaten alive by his party, starting the day after the election.


It will be ugly.


It will make John WISH he was in a 5x8 cell in Hanoi again.



Just wait. We all know how much they hate him. 10 months ago, they (Limbaugh and others) were shouting from the rooftops that the GOP would be destroyed if it nominated John McCain.

They've hated him for years. They've managed to hide their hatred just below the surface during the campaign.


But the day after McCain loses... it all comes unleashed.



God help the man.

3. Fuck him.
He is not an honorable man.

He is nothing more than an opportunist with very little actual talent or intellect, but has monied connections.

He gets everything he deserves.

5. I agree....... but they will rip the skin off of his bones......


It will be ugly.


Remember the scene in the Lion King when the hyenas turn on Scar?


That will be the right-wing and McCain.

4. They will happily scapegoat him. If he'd run a moral campaign, I'd pity him.
But I have no compassion for the man.

presidential campaign EVER.

9. All this anger is toxic
Edited on Mon Oct-13-08 01:37 AM by blount
Let the anger be theirs. Please don't fall into the trap of hating. Lets just win and begin cleaning up this horrible mess. It will be a lot easier if we can work together instead of "getting even" with the past 8 years of corruption.

Edited because I can't even check my spelling. Sheesh.

11. I disagree
Anger sometimes is a release. Sometimes anger is validation,Anger serves a purpose even if some do not understand that purpose and seek to taboo angry expressions.
Rant on people.Anger can be a voice of sanity sometimes.

12. Anger as energy yes, anger as destruction/revenge no
I wandered over to Bill Ayers Blog today as I was curious as to what was happening to this vilified man.

link to Bills blog - http://billayers.wordpress.com/

I read a angry angry quote that disturbed me deeply. I posted it below, but I warn you, it really bothered me that this was another american, and I felt he was speaking to me directly.

I was referring to this mindless rage that drives people when I spoke of anger. Dang but this statement really disturbed me.





"Don’t worry too much. Very shortly a revolution will start and the cancer of liberalism will be ripped from the body politic and disposed of on the garbage heap of history. Liberal operatives and propagandist, the internal enemies of America and trash such as yourself will be lofted to the light standards across America not only as a purge but as a warning"

20. The guy is probably just a moron in a basement somewhere who is too timid to do anything.
The only vent he has is strong words through his keyboard and little else, and if he is serious about violence, there's plenty of liberal Americans who also believe in something called the 2nd Amendment. It's hard to fathom that so many would willingly allow themselves to go down without a struggle, especially after what people witnessed with the Jews during the last world war.

13. welcome to DU!
And with an attitude like yours, I hope you stick around! It's so easy to hate--and God knows, so tempting, oh so tempting...--but it's not productive. There really is a horrible mess and I hope that Obama's administration ushers in a new age of truth and cooperation for the greater good.

I feel as though everything that's been going on lately and for the past eight years is one giant purge... it's painful but necessary to clear the decks and start anew.

Anyway, like I said, welcome to DU! :hi:

14. thank you
I appreciate the welcome. I have lurked awhile, and appreciate the dialog in this site. The discussions are for the most part well thought out. It helps me frame my own thoughts and impressions.

10. Wait a minute
>It will make John WISH he was in a 5x8 cell in Hanoi again.

I was in a 6x7 room in solitary in America.They drugged me up restrained me, even put me in cold wraps,and played mind games.I wonder how much American mental hospitals in the 80's resembled the crazy shit happening in Hanoi?

Just a strange little thought...

Sometimes I think what suffering people go through in the psych wards of America rivals what McCain went through in Hanoi. Seriously.
Nobody dares make that comparison.But once you have been"on the inside" it seems comparable.

16. Nah, he'll just be even more forgotten than Dubya.
Sort of like how Michael Dukakis seemed to fall off the face of the earth in the years after the 1988 election.

24. Sheriff Joe unless he gets his ass kicked
Joe Slimebag is now endorsed by the Republican party.

Saban is a decent man who should get the job, but Joe is the slimebag that we know and he's pulling dirty tricks worse than anything McCain/Palin pulled.

Against Napolitano, he's going to have a hard time, though.

18. He'll also regret
rejecting overtures by Reed, Daschle, Kerry and others to get him to switch to either a Dem or an independent.

His loss. Fuck him. He tied himself to Bush the last 5 years or so. This is what he deserves. It will be great watching them eat him alive. They say Dems are cruel to our losing candidates. I think we'll see something fascinating as their party continues to implode.

22. anger is a great start
it recognizes the need for change. it credits outrage. and it is appropriate right now.

there is a vast difference between hate and anger.

Anger is a human emotion. We have nothing to fear from anger -- except repressing it to the point of becoming the Super Angry and Judgmental. We know what that looks like.

It is healthy to express anger and then move through it to solution, to healing, etc when you are greeted with like-minded people.

It would be foolish of us to proceed thinking some of these people will work with liberals. They hate. It is not only mis-guided and naive to think they will work with us, but it is foolish.

Fool me once, blah blah blah. I am not electing a Democrat so he can be a Republican apologist. Sorry.

they messed this country up but good. And sadly, things don't change without a firm stand that things MUST change.

I'm not against working with people who have proven themselves reasonable - but right now, we have a gang of crooks in almost every position of the government. To work with these people is to open yourself to the dirt and being lowered to that level.

I'm not playing the "nice" game this time. IF they want to be a part of the healing, let them step forward NOW and renounce the tactics of the McCain campaign. Let them step forward and hold Palin accountable for her ethics violation. We can't have these double standards and then be told we have to make nice.

I've seen this all before and what I'm saying is that meeting people half way is a 2 way street. When you've crapped on liberals for years, it is your responsibility to cross the aisle and put your money where your mouth is. this isn't recess.

23. They did not let him run his own campaign!
That's the #1 reason why he is losing.

McCain stopped being a Maverick, endorsed Bush's decisions, even on torture.

He let them pick his VP and Palin is the gift to Obama that kept giving.

Had he picked Lieberman, it would have been a lot harder for Obama / Biden.

In the end twas the Fundies that killed the beast.

25. One of the things that pisses me off the most about DU is the totally unjustified
John Kerry bashing.

He conceded because he BELIEVED he had lost. Full stop. He still never lost his integrity, even if he was wrong on that day, and he fought a way better fight than McCain is doing even now when, theoretically, it isn't over yet.

I cannot wait to see the freeper version, because I don't have to pretend to be a good person (since I'm not running for office) and I love the schadenfreude, and remember--this is a man who kissed Bush's ass even after the bush campaign smeared the fuck out of Max Cleland and used racial slurs against McCain's OWN FAMILY. A man who won't defend his own adopted daughter against race-baiters out of desire to protect his own future political career is someone I can't wait to see shredded by hyenas.

26. And after that vengeance...what will they have?
There is nobody in the Republican Party that has anything I would call "wisdom." Someone who speaks for the conservative cause with the genuine passion that people like Obama (and many people here on DU) carry.

I'm old enough to remember what happened when Goldwater, the most ideological right-winger, was nominated by the Republicans. They were nearly destroyed. They had to wait until one of their number, someone with a vision - amazingly, Richard Nixon - returned to politics. But who could be their new Nixon? Mitt Romney? Any of what were cruelly, but truthfully, called the "bunch of old men" in the Republican debate, trying to summon the ghost of Ronald Reagan?
