Reasons Obama Is Still Unlikely to Win The Presidency

Back on January 28 this year, I submitted an article titled Reasons Obama is unlikely to Win the Presidency. The scenario has changed a good bit since that time and I have to admit, Barack Obama has succeeded much more than I had calculated, but I still stand by my first evaluation of the main groups which would propel him. If several negative situations had not arisen, I might have been proven wrong in November. But several negatives did arise and I now believe he is less likely to become president than I did in January. Those groups that I predicted would drive him are indeed the major ones who are doing it. But in the meantime, he has picked up followers that will very likely be his downfall rather than assets.
The Obama people and lot's of others have put Hillary down because of her "misstatement" about being pinned down by sniper fire. However, if I were in the Obama camp, I'd be ashamed to mention some little something like that. She has been caught in untruths before, but all in all she is intelligent enough to know better than to try and lie about things which are going to amount to a lot., I think. Obama is smooth but he thinks the American public will believe him when he says he sat in church for 20 years listening to a preacher blast the nation which has served both of them well, then try to say he was unaware of his diatribes until he saw the recent clip. Then try to avoid denouncing him until his advisors drive him to it. It becomes obvious that he and his wife actually agree with Jeremiah Wright. And yet the Democratic party wants him to be our president. I suspect that he and his preacher friend are toasting one another behind closed doors.
The bloggers and the opposition websites are just beginning to roll. Before the election in November, even if the liberal news media refuses to print all that is against this man, it will be heardyou can depend upon it. And, if you visit the ones now online and can come away and sayI'm still for Obama, you have a problem.
I'll call these points "misstatements" rather than what they really are but pay attention: In February past, Obama made a statement shortly after Jeremiah Wright first broke into the news. He said that his church was not particularly controversial. And also said on other occasions that he had never heard the preacher make those kind of remarksin 20 years. This is a misstatement because he wrote in his book "Dreams From My Father", that he was told by preacher Wright that their helping him in his efforts might not be a feather in his cap and went on to explain a number of controversies, in 1994!
There are numerous reports of his flip-floppery on issues depending upon to whom he is speaking. I cannot possibly list and explain these things but will enclose links for your own reading. If you are now backing Obama, you need to re-think your position. At least enough to do research on what is happening. I urge you to go to the following links and see the many accusations that are against him. He is a good speaker but If you have watched the last debate and several other of his rather tough interviews, you will see that he becomes flustered when he cannot give a satisfactory answer. I expect to see him flustered many times over the next seven months.

It is beyond my imagination why the Democratic Party continues to choose candidates with a lack of qualifications and especially one with all these question marksand more. If by some chance Obama is elected. The Democratic Party is even in worse shape. With only campaigning more than a few months, they have successfully divided themselves irreversibly, I believe. The future looks dismal for their party, for the Republican party and the U.S.A.
