Economy peeling some evangelicals from GOP

The U.S. conservative evangelical Christian vote is still the Republican Party's to lose, but the poor economy may be peeling some of them off, analysts say.

What kind of a man can be a SERIAL cheater, with dozens of women, cherry picked for their beauty and financial portfolios, not for anything resembling true love or pure intentions? Serial cheating requires real forethought, arranging plane tickets and secret rendezvous, keeping all the lies straight for years. Good practice if you want to learn to be a "straight shooter" when what you're shooting is total BS.

Carol McCain was a swimwear model when she met John McCain. Not surprisingly, she made a wonderful trophy wife for that reason. Unfortunately her 5'9" willowy frame had shrunk to 5'4" by the time John returned from Vietnam. While he was imprisoned in a POW camp, Carol decided not to bother him with news of her debilitating car crash that required several months of surgeries and years of rehab to recover from (she never completely recovered).

Disappointed that his once hot wife's physical beauty had faded through the hardship of her injuries, McCain began to cheat - multiple times. With multiple partners. For years. HUNDREDS of times, McCain's penis would slip and accidentally fall into yet another woman's vagina. While he continued to live with Carol McCain, with no separation, legal or otherwise.

He then met Cindy, whose modeling career and financial status made her the best choice for a golddigging power hungry psychopath (a person who doesn't care about the pain that he causes others he's close to in pursuing his own selfish needs). He conducted the affair while still keeping Carol in the dark about it, and AFTER Cindy agreed to marry the still very much married John, he finally decided to drop it all in Carol's lap, devastating her and their children.

I love how this is "ancient history", despite the fact that it clearly shows the character, not a one time mistake the but the long-term character, of this man. Despite the fact that if the Dems do something unsavory, it's time for the lynch mob. But if the Repubs do something over a VERY LONG TERM like multiple affairs that take place over many years in duration, it's a "mistake" that should be forgiven and forgotten.

The best part is that despite Barack having what appears to be a genuine, loving relationship with his wife (his equal, not his trophy), a Google search still yields countless Christian and conservative websites calling serial cheater McCain the "family values" candidate.

Could "moderate" Christian be a euphemism for "lukewarm" Christian...if so reference the scripture that says that the those who are lukewarm will reap some heavy-duty consequences. It is a position that God hates.

Gratefully God does forgive and forget when asked....Obama could even be forgiven for his grievous position on abortion IF he sought it. HOWEVER he thinks there is nothing wrong with killing preborn babies...even if they manage to survive an abortion--he would allow them to die. Take a look (in the Bible/ OT) at what happens to nations that shed innocent blood...
we are well on our way. Obama is no messiah as many with Mel's attitude believe...it is frightening to think what may happen if he is elected.

PALIN -- McCain's rhetoric.
McCain we are sorry you were in Jail in vietnam, but, it do not give you a license to be a ASS.
You get on America last nerve using your POW experience to attack others (The old fool)!
Did John McCain use his POW experience to lie in church?
Do John McCain use his POW experience to belittle other americans?
Palin need to know her son is not fighting for americans freedom of speech!
Palin need to research why her son is in Bush-McCain war.
Palin need to research why the american economy die because of BUSH - MCCAIN Iraq war.
Palin need to research why americans die in BUSH-MCCAIN Iraq war.
WHERE ARE THE WDM'S?
DID MCCAIN NEED A LESSON TELLING THE TRUTH IN CHURCH?
DID MCCAIN WRITE THE STORY A CROSS IN THE SAND OR DIRT?
http://rawstory.com/news/2008/Did_McCain_ad_l...
Americans of all political persuasions are coming to the sad realization that our war hero---a man of undoubted talents who was a role model for many of his generation--is a congenital liar. Tale by tale, McCain story lifted from a russian novelist, the case is being made he is compelled to mislead, and ensnare his subordinated and friends in a web of deceit. Take a good look at how drastically his carefully crafted images are lifted from Russia novelist. Senator McCain election year history book imageis that of a man out of a story book which each written line change at the drop of a pen.(ref: words of all news media)
Using poor judgment Senator McCain found himself in the middle of several real life situations he do not want to expose without the use of a pen to change the story line. Some things in history John McCain cannot change:
BORN-AGAIN CHRISTIAN PALIN KNOW IN HER HERAT OF HEART THAT OBAMA IS NOT PALLING AROUND WITH TERRORISTS.
THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT KNOW OBAMA IS NOT PALLING AROUND WITH TERRORIST.
AMERICANS QUESTION IF PALIN HERAT IS FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT, IS PALIN A LIE, OR IS PALIN FORCED BY MCCAIN TO LIE?
Many Americans questions if Palin is born-again or not? WHY LIE?
MANY CHRISTIANS CANNOT STAND IN AGREEMENT WITH PALIN.

Schwarzenegger to U.S.: State may need $7-billion loan
In a letter obtained by The Times, the governor warns that tight credit has dried up funds California routinely relies on and it may have to seek emergency aid within weeks.
I find it ironic, though, that Mccain's surrogates and campaign have taken to saying that they are a reform platform.

JOHN McCAIN WORSHIPS THE GROUND GRAMM WALKS ON AS AN ECONOMIST
McCain-Gramm and The Fannie Mae Crisis
September 7, 2008 ·
John McCain, Phil Gramm and the Republican establishment are acting as if they had nothing to do with the Housing Crisis that led to today’s takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
1994-At the behest of the banking industry Phil Gramm, with McCain’s support, killed the Fair Credit Reporting Act
In 1994, Mr. Gramm single-handedly killed a bill that would have required credit bureaus to quickly fix errors on a person’s credit report. Mr. Gramm called it a “bad bill” that imposed costs on the credit bureaus.”He was very focused on cost to financial institutions and not very focused on costs suffered by consumers,” said Travis Plunkett, legislative director for the Consumer Federation of America
1999-The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, authored by McCain’s principle economic advisor, Phil Gramm is the law that deregulated banking and allowed the explosion of financial derivatives that led to the current credit crisis. John McCain voted for the bill.
2000-Phil Gramm created the Commodities Future Modernization Act. John McCain voted for the bill.

Is Palin palling around with people thats for teen sex?
THE GLOVES ARE OFF---SLAP THE SH-T OUT OF HER AND GET BACK TO THE ECONOMY!

Be careful of the use of "fundamentalist" values attached to evangelical Christians. Evangelicals represent a much wider and more diverse demographic in the U.S. at up to 40 percent of the U.S. population. "Fundamentalist" Christians as they have been defined today represent a small, marginal population of Christians at about 1-2 percent of the U.S. population. Also, I wouldn't necessarily link younger evangelicals' attraction to Obama as primarily economic; there are other issues related to social justice, the environment, and international engagement that I hear spoken of much more often by evangelicals as defining their vote.
