Rebellion

Subverting the Dominant Paradigm since 1971

Making Stupid Bets.

The love of my life and I were discussing the state of the world last night, in particular the emerging state of the US Presidential election.

I should point out that my darling wife, despite being one of the most intelligent people that I have ever met, watches Oprah and Dr Phil. I will never understand all of that. I put it down to one of those Girl / Boy Things.

The reason I bring this sallient point up, is her belief that B.Hussein Obama will cruise through the election based on Oprah’s endorsement.

Yes, I know, despite being a remarkable person, for some reason she has this deficiency where the Big ‘O’ is concerned.

Now, any sane rational thinking person knows that despite his flaws, McCain will make Obama his little bitch in the General Election. They also know that Obama can’t possibly win more than 20 states.

So, Mrs Rebellion has her system and I have mine. Mine is based on the fact that you can’t fool enough people for Obama to win more than 20 States. Mrs Rebellion is basing her bet on the fact that Oprah is seen in more than 20 states so she should get him over the line.

Oh, did I mention we made a bet? If B. Hussein gets more than 20 States out of 50, then I have to buy my ever-loving wife a new Oroton Handbag. If he doesn’t, then I get a new turtle tank. One of these days I will tell the story of what happened to my old turtle, but that is for a different day and after I have drunk much to try to heal the pain. Suffice to say, it involves a shovel, lawn mower and hibernation.

My take on the game is that I think B.Hussein will pick up between 12-15 states. McCain will romp home in the rest. Feel free to tell me how wrong I am and if you think I will be contributing to the Overpriced Oroton handbags Retirement Fund.

  1. This is too funny, I sure hope you are right..would like for her to get the bag and you the turtle tank..but please God, don’t let us get Obama.’

    Now I will share with you that I am concerned. Not because of Oprahs power and magnetic personality that she has so many that will follow her lead. Just look at the books she sells for authors..they all know her endorsement will make them a number 1 bestseller.

    I am concerned because there is so much money in Obamas pot.. George Soros money not to mention Oprahs. Obama is young and stands for change (they don’t realize that they may not like the change,) they are coming out in record numbers to register and show up for the primarys. Concerned because I don’t think most are really looking at the issues…they are fed up with the Republicans and want to give them the boot. Bush is blamed for loss of jobs, economy high gas prices..you name it.

    This will be McCains legacy..the Bush administration..don’t agree with it and McCain is close to the left but with that said, he would make a much better President to lead our country than Obama ever would. At least he has character and patriotism.

    McCain is saying he wants a clean campaign and no negativity. Soros and his goons will have their gloves on. McCain or someone must too.

    Soros control of much of the media and his money for the ads that will try to paint McCain will be massive.
    Let’s hope that Obama shows his true colors again and again and then maybe people will not be so blinded by his message.
