Putting forward the candidacy of a woman who is an ignoramus with a look of a' naughty librarian' has allowed the Republicans to keep up with the Joneses and play to the disappointed 'swing' middle-aged right-leaning Hillary voters and how better to put John McCain's and the Republican party's interests first while appearing to put "America first" And judging from the polls, the deceptioin is working beautifully for the Republican ticket.
On the other hand, even though Barack Obama is by far the better candidate in both intellect, integrity and policies that will help the US, there is the danger that in this election the more liberal half of the electorate will be yet again disenfranchised by being outflanked among the rank and file ignorant voters by this blatant Republican fraud marketed through the agency of a politicized mainstream media. It looks like also that voter fraud may again rear its ugly head.
Suppression of liberal dissent took its first big step at the GOP convention in Minneapolis/St. Paul. The McCain campaign is working with the Bush White House's efforts to have the police working over liberal dissenters. What the old Harlot party of "Boss Tweed" can't simply hoodwink away it can strong arm away.
The sure fire way for the Old-GOP-Harlot to paint her public face with a new coat of lipstick is to dress up her elitism with the maiden shepherdess's garb of pseudo-populist reform amidst slogans and buzz words like "maverick". This is the way to steal Obama's thunder. while secretly keeping her tired old nostrums alive and in office for another four years.
USA be damned once they've gotten back in. John McCain and Sarah Palin aim to FOOL enough of the 'swing' (independent) voters into thinking that the Old-GOP-Harlot really is a new bride who represents the future of America, and they must defuse the populist Barack Obama's Democratic party which at this juncture stands for much more authentic reformist tendencies and real change that could lead the country in a different direction. This puts McCain-Palin in the absurd position of pretending to be against themselves, or at least their own party and its corrupt politics that they, along with their colleagues in the old GOP-Harlot party created.
The discouraging thing is that the American public's anger over President Bush's failed policies does not seem to be transferred to the McCain-Palin ticket. Public anger is simply not strong enough to prevent that same dumbed-down public from yet again buying into the GOP-Harlot's recycling of its most cherished failed value system and policies that have impoverished the rank and file citizen while only benefitting rich fat cat oligarchs, hidden behind the façade of phony reform and phony feminism. .
Obama is still painted as too inexperienced while Palin, with less experience than Obama is trumpeted as having more 'executive' experience. . Meanwhile the same stupid public goes ga ga over Sarah Palin and fail to see through cynical lying and being a slick politician with an 'innocent' face. She's good at that. Real good..
So hearing the latest polls I again get that hollow feeling I got after the Swift Boaters were unleashed in '04.because the American public, or at least enough of it, is stupid enough to buy the filthy, dishonest, and jingoistic Republican message, despite eight years of disaster under that party's hegemony. Lying WORKS.if it is done cleverly enough and honesty FAILS. Barack Obama hopes that the American people will see though the deceit, but the fact that Palin has achieved such rock star status and immense popularity by reading a speechwriter's words from a teleprompter, touting a fictionalized resume and telling a lie in every line of her speech, suggests that they DO NOT see through the deceit.
The Republicans bank on an uneducated public to help them put America LAST, and the press will cooperate to assist in keeping up the Republican string of election year successes. Meanwhile, the quagmire war and the economic mess show no signs of spiralling anywhere but downwards as poverty increases. America is getting another 'fix' and future generations of our grandchildren are being financially raped and ripped off, as we all are. But it is they who will pay the bill for Republican excesses and a dumbed-down public's folly even more than we all will at present.
God help us if "nucular" John McNasty and Sarah-Mascara make it into the White House. We'd better start reading the Book of Revelations and prepare for the worst whether there turn out to be a, Democrat Congress or no. This time around it could be "game over"..
