When did the US become sucked into the inexperience=change idiocy? Biggest political marketing scam ever?

Question

First we have the whole OBAMA-mania----a guy who hasn't even served a full term in the Senate...who only 3 short years ago he was a lowly state legislator and community organizer with Will Ayers. Now somehow he has tricked people into somehow this know-nothing status equals change!!!

Are we that dumb?

Now as a result McCain ruled out a number of his party's elder statesmen----men of real accomplishemnt ike Rudy Giuliani---who eliminated child prostitution on 42nd street after years of Democrat mayors simply accepting it. He fought crime in the "bad" parts of the city, after years of Democrats accepting it....

Or Newt Gingrich who architected the paying off of our nationa debt during the 90s when he took over congress after decades of democrat overspending....

Instead we McCain only considered a bunch of 1 term governors----way better than Obama's status as a legislator who was never ever a single point of responsibility...but still better choices remained.

Are we suckers for this ridiculous "change" nonsense?

Answer 1

We are, because we look at what has happened over the last 8 years and realize those who should run don't, and those that shouldn't run, do

Answer 2

Change and hope rhetoric works. If you translate some of Hitler's campaign speeches you will see similarities.

Obama is using Freudian Projection just like Mao, Lenin, and Hitler did. (Mao killed 70 million. Lenin and his group killed 30 million. Hitler killed 6 million)

He is also running on fear by saying things like "If America elects another republican then ....".

What he doesn't tell you is his promised spending plans would add trillions to the national debt and that it would be good for America not to elect him.

Answer 3

All started when Karl Rove said that McCain can not win - very true.

The republican answer to ALL questions and issues since then is a dirty and false PERSONAL attacks on democratic candidates. That's when the idiotic labels of 'inexperience' and 'elitism' started.

Eat it back.

Answer 4

How much experience does Palin have? Oh thats right NONE!

Answer 5

Personally, I think Palin is the perfect example of the public servant our founding fathers had in mind (aside from the woman thing).

She is a private citizen who saw corruption in her local government and set about to change it.  She is taking her turn and stepping up to serve her country, beholden to no person or political party.

Answer 6

The media would push the election of a ham sandwich for president before they ever supported a Republican.  Most of the people voting for Obama probably look at this election as reality T.V.  It is reality, but that's what scares the h**l out of me.  American citizens are terribly uneducated about politics.

Answer 7

Lots of bad things = change.

Cancer = change

Drug abuse = change

Losing your spouse = change

Answer 8

"Are we suckers for this ridiculous "change" nonsense?"

"The broad masses of a population are more amenable to the appeal of rhetoric than to any other force."

Adolf Hitler

I guess he knew what he was talking about.
