AmusingComments Off on Rupert Murdoch on Obama: “I am very worried”
Sep202008
For all of the Liberal ‘s that are worried that the world hates us now; well according to Rupert Murdoch if Barack Obama is elected he is going to ruin our relationships with the rest of the world. Go figure!
“I am very worried,” Murdoch said during an interview Friday with Fox Business Network. “I like Sen. Obama very much. I have met him. He is a very intelligent man. But his policy of anti-globalization, protectionism, is going to be — and card checks — are going to do two or three things. It’s going to give us a lot of inflation. They’re going to ruin our relationships with the rest of the world. And they are going to slow down the rest of the world, too. And they’re going to make people frightened to add to employment. You are going to find companies leaving this country if it’s — if you put a protectionist wall around it. You’re going to get — his policy is really very, very naive, old-fashioned, 1960’s socialist.”
They didn’t call him “The Great Communicator” for nothing. These two videos show the difference in the way Barack Obama and Ronald Reagan deal with hecklers.
Compare Obama’s “Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on everybody.” to Reagan’s “Awwww Shut Up!”
Ronald Reagan displayed total confidence and Obama acted more like a flustered professor.

Tied in Pennsylvania tied, tied in Minnesota, McCain up by 1 in Michigan. It doesn’t look good for “The One”.
Another good thing about this; I don’t think Fast Eddie Rendell likes Obama. He is a die hard Clintonite. I doubt if he will have the dead rise to vote for Obama.
The race for Pennsylvania’s 21 Electoral College votes is tied.
The latest Fox News/Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the state finds Barack Obama and John McCain each attracting 47% of the vote (demographic crosstabs available for Premium Members). Eighty-three percent (83%) of Obama voters are certain they will vote for him and not change their mind before Election Day. An identical percentage of McCain voters say the same thing.
A week ago, Obama was up by two points after holding five percentage-point leads in August and July.
The latest poll finds the Republican candidate is viewed more a bit more favorably among voters than his opponent. McCain is viewed favorably by 60%, up three points from a week ago. Obama’s ratings are at 52% favorable, down three points.
Also, by a 51% to 42% margin, voters in the Keystone State trust McCain more than Obama.
Forty-three percent (43%) of Pennsylvania voters would be very or extremely comfortable with McCain as President. Forty-one percent (41%) say the same about Obama.
As for the running mates, 44% would be that comfortable if Biden had to assume the duties of President while 40% say the same about Palin in the Oval Office. Nationally, 63% say that McCain is prepared to be President while 44% say the same about Obama.
