I went ahead and added a little poll to the right sidebar, all the way down.
Whee.

Where are all your CPAC buddies Mr. Lange? Maybe they are hunting with Cheney. Or judging spelling bees with Dan Quayle. Such a conservative blog and it looks like you are the only one who wants McCain. One vote for the guy who supports indefinite occupation of foreign countries, 3 for your gal-pal HRC, and 3 for the next President of the United States, Barrack Hussien Obama!
You’re going to call the election based on a tiny poll on my blog?
Dude, how stupid are you? I mean, can you wipe your own ass, or do you need help with that?
And before you go on about someone else misspelling something, you might want to check your own spelling. It’s “Barack”. Not Barrack. Sorry, but you left yourself wide open.
I don’t have any “CPAC buddies”, my friend. And if it’s so obvious Obama is going to win, why are you foaming at the mouth like a rabid dog?
Then again, I forgot, liberals never appeal to reason. They appeal to base emotion and class warfare.
I am really hurt by your thoughtful comments which appear to be premised on “base emotion.” A rabid dog dog foaming at the mouth uses an exclamation point, while a civilized Republican uses personal insults. Maybe I touched a nerve.
To clear up a few points:
I did not say your poll was representative of the voting public as a whole, but rather who reads your blog. I think Barack (thanks for the spelling advice by the way; I never would have expected such a nit from someone who has been ranting online for his whole adult life) will win because many people are tired of Bush, the war in Iraq, and are looking for a change in direction. Barack is gaining momentum and I believe he will be the nominee for the Democrats. McCain represents the status quo in a lot of ways and I do not think that will resonate well with a majority of the voting public. Maybe I will be proven wrong, but I think Obama will be our next President.
On the CPAC point, I believe you posted earlier this month: “I know CPAC cats.” I guess you only name drop when its helpful to your point.
Lastly, you are right on the ass wiping thing. I can’t wipe my own ass. My parents help me. I live in their basement and spend all my time chain smoking, getting drunk and playing video games.
Keep up the good work on the blog. It is very entertaining.
Well, let’s note for the record that you are *certainly* above personal insults. I think anyone reading this can see that very clearly.
As for “I know CPAC cats”, yes, I have met some, but I do not have any personal friends who have attended CPAC. It’s like saying, “I know Republicans” or “I know steroid users, they always punch fans out in their apartment…” *cough*
I have not yet speculated on who is going to win the general. You are quite right, McCain is a Republican, and Republicans are the status quo. Vote against him if you want to see us pull out of Iraq and watch as the country disintegrates into sectarian violence and all-out civil war. After all, you really care for these people, as a liberal, am I correct? So the best thing to do is erase all our progress and let them kill themselves a la Vietnam. Am I still following you here?
If Obama is the nominee — and he’s not, yet, he still has to beat the Clinton Machine, and don’t for a second think Clinton has given up in any way, shape, or form — what he will face in the general as his biggest problem is the experience issue. Two years as a state senator and half a term as in the U.S. senate against a highly accomplished statement.
Now, contrary to what you probably believe, the vast majority of the country is conservative. It’s why Bush won two terms. It’s why the Democrats always rush to the middle in the general after securing their base. Most Americans care about national defense, high taxes, things like that.
Certainly, there is fatigue, though I think history will be kind to Bush — provided we don’t cut and run in Iraq. A lack of news stories on Iraq, which we’ve definitely seen, means only one thing for the liberal Fourth Estate: there isn’t enough bad news to report. The surge, derided by Obama and Hillary, and championed by McCain — *worked*.
Although McCain is not *exactly* the status quo, which is why he’s having problems with the conservative base. With nation defense as my one defining issue, I have no problem voting for McCain. However, his remarks regarding justices, with 4-5 spots open on the Supreme Court in the next 4-8 years, rankles many conservatives. So does his stance on immigration (which I don’t care about, I’m soft as hell on immigration).
I’m not predicting a McCain win. You’re nuts if you think I am. A day in politics is a very long time; a week is a *lifetime*. By next November we could be debating completely different issues. There’s no way to know, and people who know politics know that intuitively.
I will, however, guarantee that if McCain loses and Obama wins, after four years, we will see a “true” conservative emerge on the GOP side, one who will pose a great threat to a second Obama term.
Keep your comments coming. I see you have dealt with the anger issues that I remember superbly, and certainly never attempt to smear anyone.

Good luck with that.

The status quo isn’t always wrong, you know.
Just correcting myself — above, where I say, highly accomplished “statement”, it should read, “statesman”.
