Mood of Change in the Air

There is interesting movement in the polls. Obie apparently hit his peak in February, and is now dropping. "Plummeting" might be overstating it, but a 17 point drop is less than a month comes pretty close.

I couldn't be happier. As I've made clear, I think the guy is D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S.

  1. The media will keep Obama's campaign alive as much as possible.Notice how their shift is lately away from national security and toward how "bad" the Economy is?Sharpton et al started the sub-prime thing with their usual Bamboozle schtick,and now look!My editor says end here before bloggorhea sets in.

  2. Government interference in the economy is probably the biggest factor of the failure.

    Out of control spending, debt, etc.

    More government interference will only make it worse.

    They will NEVER LEARN,

    BUY FOREIGN CURRENCIES!

  3. Buy the universal currency... GOLD.

    At the end of every presidential term the economy slows in anticipation of what's to come. The MSM beats the drum and screams "recession"; BFD. Thanks to FDR our entire economy is based on trust and nothing more. What the government needs to do is keep their fingers out of the mix so that things like the following don't happen.

    “The sub-prime mortgage collapse is another tale of unintended
    consequences. The crisis has its roots in the Community Reinvestment Act
    of 1977, a Carter-era law that purported to prevent ‘redlining’ —denying
    mortgages to black borrowers—by pressuring banks to make home loans in
    ‘low- and moderate-income neighborhoods.’ Under the act, banks were to
    be graded on their attentiveness to the ‘credit needs’ of ‘predominantly
    minority neighborhoods.’...[T]o earn high ratings, banks were forced to
    make increasingly risky loans to borrowers who wouldn’t qualify for a
    mortgage under normal standards of creditworthiness. The CRA, made even
    more stringent during the Clinton administration, trapped lenders in a
    Catch-22. ‘If they comply,’ wrote Loyola College economist Thomas
    DiLorenzo, ‘they know they will have to suffer from more loan defaults.
    If they don’t comply, they face financial penalties... which can cost a
    large corporation like Bank of America billions of dollars.’

    Again, I ask you to vote not for the candidate that promises to do the most for you, but for the one who will do the least to you.

  4. Exactly right. And you can hear the howling from Congress about the "irresponsible" lenders...and most people believe it.

    God I hate 'em.

    Too bad you can't just shoot the bastards.

  6. Government mandates, then demonizes those it coerces into obeying.

    Socialists like Obie and Hillary want a lot more of it.

    McCain the Democrat wants slightly less.

    Blood. Shooting out of my eyes.
