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.
