Patrick Adams - Response

"Psycological risk of candidate?

Why not look at the psycological risk, the similarities between Bush's and McCain's younger lives and how it may effect their future decisions. Perhaps McCain chose to stay on in Hanoi due to a bullying successful father?"

Or perhaps the psycological risks of a candidate of a child of an unwed mother that manages to only see/know his actual father for a few weeks when he becomes an adult but spends his younger life essentially abandoned by his mother (already abandoned by his father) to live with his grandparents... This child grows up and allegedly writes a book, "Dreams of My Father" which seems to address the dreams of a person that he did not know but knows that he abandoned him at an early age... a father that was what you might call very left leaning... a father whose acceptance from being abandoned he may be "psycological" driven to try to gain throughout his life?

You mean those kinds of psycological risks Patrick?

Moderate democrats and PUMA MUST SEE this and share now!

Moderate democrats need to see this information immediately. See Obama’s post to Daily KOS in 2005. He believes moderates will need to be driven out in order to usher in the progressive era. His vision is unfolding before our eyes, this is a MUST read! http://www.dailykos.com/story/2005/9/30/102745/165 and http://newzeal.blogspot.com/2008/11/obama-file-48-obamas-instructions-to.html

election eve optimism

is this moment of truth situational or objective?

Patrick is a stupid idiot

When McCain was in Hanoi, he was already a married man with kids, living away from home.

Somehow, this Patrick girlie-man wants to say that a successful, two-parent household is worse for a child than having a deadbeat dad who you only meet twice in your life (Obama's situation).

Patrick appears to be one of the 12 people to see Oliver Stone's 'W' film.

Great Election Scenarios

Thanks a lot Mr. Barone! I will look at this as I watch the election results come in. Just one question - at the beginning of the article it seemed you had NM in the solid Obama category and NV in the TCTC category. But at the end it seemed that NM was too close to call and NV was not in that category. So which one was really supposed to be TCTC? Thanks again for this fascinating election scenario.

Barone

You were wrong about Hillary, and you're wrong about McCain. At what point do you simply admit you've miscalled this election throughout? Or alternatively when will you be replaced by someone a little less, well, wrong? Or when do you simply pass out from bending over backwards to make the facts agree with your wrong opinions?

If I were you, my professional dignity would be sorely injured by now and I'd be looking for a new line of work. Monster.com might be a good bet after tomorrow. Of course you'll have to be a bit more creative in your resume than you are in your columns.

Predictions

Unfortunately for McCain, Christopher Hitchens has called the election for Obama:
