Shock poll: Obama could lose Illinois

• I'll believe that when I see it happen and not a moment before.

• Chicago is a lost cause, I fully expect it to turn into an even worse version of Detroit here within the next few years. We should put a fence around it to keep the trash in while we still have the chance.

• This is exactly why I wish Cook County were it's own state. He'll lose at least 85 out of 102 counties here, but he'll win the one with all the Marxists and voting dead and that's all he really needs.

  • When they change it to their own state please add San Francisco, Los Angeles, Sacramento, Washington DC, Boston and NYC to the list. That would bring it up to 57 states making Obama correct about something for a change. Also have them add the letter R after the C so it's accurate.

• No worries. The poll simply tells the Shitcagohole Corruption Machine how much they have to stuff the ballot boxes and re-arrange the counts.

• I hate to be cynical, but every four years when it is said the Republicans have a shot in a traditionally blue state like Illinois or California or New York I say:"I'll believe it when they win it." Obama recently did five events in Chicago so maybe he is in trouble there. Obama won the two biggest cities in Kentucky, Louisville and Lexington, by a little bit in 2008 but was swamped in the rest of the state for a 17 point loss. So many otherwise fine, Republican states go Democrat because of the margins coming out of the big cities.

  • Why do you think I left Kalifornia? After the whole red state blue state debacle, I chanced to see a county-by-county post-election map of Kalifornia and it was entirely red, except for five big cities and a couple of little tiny squiggles of shorline just south and north of Halfmoon Bay. The sad fact of the matter was that some fifty counties voted overwelmingly for the non-socialist candidate and the illegal, unionist, and entitlement vote still threw the state for the commie. Time to go!

    • For reasons that would make no sense to anyone but me, spending a couple days in Halfmoon Bay is kinda high on my bucket list. I've seen pictures and Google Earth, should I keep it on the list or would a visit ruin the mental images and mystique?

      • NO, No...go ahead man. It's a picturesque and quaint and a very quiet little artist's community. My parent's used to have some friends from Halfmoon Bay who were artsy fartsy kinda folks, really nice though. Of course, looking back on it now, they were probably extremely liberal, if not down right commies. There's plenty of scenic countryside around there and you may find someplace you want to visit more than Halfmoon Bay you want to add to your bucket list. Go! Have fun!

        • The geography of California is stunningly beautiful. As long as you're leaving some money behind, the people will treat you well. Half Moon Bay is a place well worth visiting.

• Hey, no problem. I'm sure he will gain the other 7 states he missed the last time.

• Well I don;t read it as being quite that optimistic, but man o man wouldn't that be a stunner? I still think this is going to an electoral landslide of Nixon/Reagan magnitude.

• Whew! For a minute I thought the guy who did the poll was the guy who played Lenny on Laverne & Shirley

• Heh heh, I see the new baby hasn't hurt your punchlines.

  • TY :)

• What is looking good is Alexis Levinson. I'd made some cheap pun about my poll numbers rising but this a classy a web site.

  • I gotta agree with you there, Jim.

    But it seems that people are starting to notice that as you close in on the most corrupt, crumbling areas of the country, such as the city of Chicago, they're still firmly pro-Obama. I guess they haven't figured out yet that it's his policies that are the cause of their ills.
