Highlights from the above link…

Viessman is more succinct in analyzing why fellow rednecks may not be flocking to Obama’s campaign.

“Guns,” he said. “And that he’s black.”

“We are just trying to tell people that you don’t have to be afraid of Obama,” said Spencer, who has done everything from working as a laborer to selling real estate. “He’s not going to try to take away your guns, no matter what the NRA says.”

“Sometimes change is hard for people,” said Viessman, a retired highway patrol officer. “But I don’t care if you’re black or Oriental or green, if you can do the job. And he can do the job. He’s pretty near the smartest guy who’s ever run for president.”

Viessman’s neo-redneck take on that: “My dad used to say, ‘A poor man who votes for a Republican is a fool.'”

Anonymous, thank you.

Update: Here’s another link mentioning Rednecks for Obama.  I love these guys…

Keith Olbermann “Campaign Comment” – Is sarah palin Smarter than a 3rd Grader?

“As suggested last night that until the election we could very easily wind up doing a special comment here every show.  It was in turn suggested to me that while events may warrant them, this would certainly render that word “special” – for two weeks anyway – inoperative.”

Yeah, yeah – Olbermann repulses you.  I’m a fan.  Regardless, unlike some of his recent special comments, he makes some kick ass points during the following “campaign comment” on 10/21…

God, she is a fcking idiot.  You know who I feel bad for?  The people of Alaska.  They will forever be known as the idiots that voted palin governor.

A Narrowing Race? No! But, Obama Won’t Complain About the Storyline

Everyone knows that Democrats are really lazy voters.  Horribly lazy.  So, if you’re a Democratic candidate, how do you get out the vote?  You obviously try to pitch the idea that the race is much closer than it appears.

While Obama has pleaded to his supporters over the past few days that this contest will narrow, the media is doing him the best favor imaginable by absolutely shoving this storyline down our throats.

The race – poll wise – will undoubtedly get closer.  Obama has already peaked when he was polling 14% ahead last week.   Stating the obvious, there is only a very slight chance that Obama beats mccain in the popular vote by more than 5-10%.

If this 5-10% margin of popular vote victory ends up being the case, the election will – by definition – turn out to be a landslide victory as originally seen on BccList.com here.  Regardless of the popular vote totals, the electoral map (290+ votes) will further highlight an Obama a$$ kicking.

Yada, yada, yada – I am getting bored of typing this run-on posting.  So, don’t get an ulcer!  We can only hope the “liberal elite media” continues to pitch headlines incorrectly speculating that the race will be closer than perceived.

Update: From BobCesca.com’s most recent posting…

“Today’s Gallup poll widened in favor of Obama. 52-43, as opposed to 51-44 yesterday. R2000 also widened in favor of Obama. 50-42 today, 50-43 yesterday. And Obama expanded his lead from three points to six points according to Zogby. 50-44 today, 48-45 yesterday.

Only two polls showed any tightening — and just barely. Rasmussen tightened. 50-46 today. 51-45 yesterday. Hotline also tightened. 47-42 today. 48-41 yesterday.”
