I’ve corrected you on this before, but you apparently continue to make the same dumb mistake. It’s simple math, really Jim. Obama was elected to the US Senate in 2004 and sworn in in January of 2005. We are now on June 2008 Jim. So, it’s been 3.5 years since Obama has been in the Illinois state senate. I worry about you Jim, particularly whether or not you’re smart enough to find your correct polling place in November.

McCain better adjust his campaign or he risk running an election like Dole or Bush Sr…...McCain to his credit has started this modification by solidifying his Supreme Court elections and Pro-Life stances recently.

“The dominate creed of National politics is right of center and Conservative. National Republicans would win most elections if they just acted as Conservatives”

Liberal GOPers lose national elections.

That is why I was “MOST Confident” to reporters, talking heads and insiders that Rudy Guiliani would never make it to first base – while others bet their mortgage that Rudy would be President. (Sean Hannity & George Will comes to mind. Hannity also predicted Jean Pirro for the last US Senate Race here in NY within the NY GOP rank and file)

Obama is a “Rookie” who two years ago was an Illinois “State” Senator doing what State Senators do best, that is – Baby Seat Laws; Playground Dedications; Trophies to Little League winners and obtaining Stop Signs for his neighborhood as he was a “Community Organizer.”

Obama is nothing more then a “Motivational Speaker” who reads off of TelePrompTers. Americans will see this Obama act and the liberal media slant by the end of summer….Both the media and Obama will be defeated by McCain.

The only benefit by the Dem’s would be a complete revamp of the liberal Dem platform to a more moderate and conservative platform.

McCain is right to use the NY Republican Party for his fundraising operations. McCain needs to just stay Clear from this NY Republican Party for political advise on running of his campaign as these NY Leaders are looked up on as “Captains of the Titanic”

NY GOP has bankrupted the State on social and fiscal conservative issues.

I just checked and I have no idea when the Consultant allegedly told this to Reisman. Perhaps, AFTER Hillary was behind in the polls in Iowa. At this point, a lot of people predicted that Hillary might lost. That said, going back to my original point, at best the Consultant made conflicting predictions which enabled him to claim victory regardless of who won. That is like claiming that the Yankees will beat the Red Sox on Monday, on Tuesday claiming that the Red Sox will beat the Yankees, and then claiming on Friday that you were correctly predicted that the Yankees would beat the Red Sox.

However, at worst, the Consultant never predicted that Obama would be the nominee. On 11/8/07, the Consultant appeared on Reisman’s radio show. The Consultant’s predictions were less good than a random person throwing darts at a dart board and making predictions based on that. He predicted that if Hillary faultered that Gore would get in the race and win (wrong), that Hillary would have trouble in New Hampshire (wrong), that Spano would run for state senate (wrong), and that Bloomberg would not run for President but would run for Governor (verdict is still out). Thus, the Consultant’s claim that he predicted an Obama victory, months before everyone else cannot possibly be true.

I am guessing at some point that the Consultant probably predicted that Hillary would lose but never predicted Obama, specifically. Given that Edwards was a top tier candidate and there was the possibility of Gore entering the race (the Consultant believed he would according to the Reisman program ) that is a far cry from predicting an Obama victory, even seeing the Consultant’s remarks in the best light possible.

You can click on the audio of that show at Reisman’s blog at 11/6/2007 and listen to audio at the 57-59 minutes. Go to google and type reisman, election post mordem and it is the first listing on the first page. I tried to provide a link but this blog still lists the comment as awaiting moderation.

Obama is done…Hillary will be the nominee the
superdelegates will not let him take the beating
that he will get over the next few months
on the statements that the reverend made…Obama
knew this stuff a long time ago…and he should
have gotten up off his rump and walked out of the
church..but he did not because he thought he
needed an african american base….as it turns
out even Obama could not have predicted his
electoral successes but he should have been
aware of the lightning rod statements that he
would ultimately be called on the carpet to reject
however it is too little too late and there are too
many states with too many electoral votes where
many of the voters are extremely sensitive to
anti Italian and anti Jewish remarks..
