Can't Touch the Medrassa Boy Now

Where are we now in the Presidential campaign, as the last week before election day looms? Scotty McClellan continues to actively campaign for Obama, you gotta wonder why Barry allows this. Scotty doesn't have a big following. The former Republican governors of Massachusetts and Minnesota have drank of that transformational, cafe-au-lait, Kool Aide and now do the zombie dance for the One. Boy about town Charley Crist, reject for the VP spot, in Florida, says he is not campaigning for Johnny in his must win State, because he was never asked. This is not even a well crafted lie. It reeks of sarcasm and personal enmity. Another log cabin heard from. Pro choice Tommy Ridge of Pennsylvania, has the courage not to bother with a half assed lie. That's why they made him the Homeland Security Czar. He simply states that McCain would have had a better chance in Pennsylvania and the rest of the country, if he had been chosen as the Veep. He's right but that's only my opinion. The Republican organizations in the must win States of Florida, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio and several others, are now saving their money instead of mounting a last minute push and beginning to build their war chests for 2010, where they feel they may have a better chance to advance the Republican cause. John McCain and Sarah Palin continue to do their thing, oblivious to the fact that it is the wrong thing. Or maybe they know it's wrong and just think it's too late to flip flop. Either way, it's a slow motion train wreck. Absent viable candidates, the only thing the Republican machine can do, is continue to try and tear down the Medrassa Boy's meat house.

And where in the World is Barry O? Last seen shuffling alone, through the humble streets of his old Hawaiian neighborhood, dressed in old jeans and flip flops. There to visit his aged , ill and possibly dying granny, the woman who largely raised him. A woman of humble origins, who grew up during the depression, labored in a defense plant during the War, then worked her way up to a senior executive position in the banking industry, at a time when women were relegated to the teller window. It's a blatant rope a dope move but a smart one that he can never be criticized for. How long can he stretch it out? The longer the better. He's way ahead on points. When they write it down in the record books, a win is what counts. Just ask George Bush. Let the crash artist and the moose gutter flail away, trying for the knockout. They're too punch drunk to notice Barry's not even in the ring. Given a last week alone, with the full focus of the press upon them, they may destroy themselves.
