I'm Calling It

Over on the fundo blogs, they are inventing reasons why McCain won the debate. One guy on Red State predicted McCain by a landslide. A popular scenario emerging, is that there are a huge number of here to fore loyal, blue collar, Democratic voters who won't even reveal to their families that they can't vote for Obama but will pull the lever for McCain, in the privacy of the booth. The reasons for these defections are always related to issues of patriotism, ie. His wife isn't proud of America, he pals around with terrorists, his pastor hates White people. It's not that he's Black but he is, after all, the Medrassa Boy.

This is the kind of tinfoil hat stuff that people make up when hope is gone. Just like the Democrats, the last two cycles, when the chin poking, shoulder shrugging, dyslexic, Texas moron won.

That's enough for me. Even the faithful know it's over. Obama will win, probably by a good margin. It might even be better than that. The Dems will do better in Congress, than they think and they think they are going to do very well.

The bad news is, the economy is going to be in the tank for years, no matter who wins and that will give the Democrats plenty of opportunity for gratuitous social spending. That's assuming anyone will lend them the money.
