no, i don't think he does - not this election cycle. the GOP brand is so badly trashed at this point (or, as Virginia GOP Congressman Tom Davis puts it: "if we were dog food, they would take us off the shelf"), and Democratic voter ID is so high, that he could stick to his guns and still get elected. of course, he'll play it safe and shift center-right, but i don't think he necessarily has to, at least not this time around.

In a major shift in policy today, Barack Obama, who has vowed all election season to have a salad instead ordered a large bowl of lettuce along with tomato slices, cucumbers, carrot shavings, a hard boiled egg, with cut up pieces of ham, salami and cheese.
The Republican party understandably jumped on this shocking change in strategy!

Win a lot of elections in your day knife?
If Obama's flip-flops start negatively affecting poll results he'll certainly flop-flip back to your preferred tunes; but since he has all your lips firmly locked to his ass now your opinions mean nothing and he's gone looking for new listeners.

I notice you constantly talk of Obama's 'flip-flops' and yet never say what they are, or why you think they are 'flip-flops', and you never mention McCain's 'flop-flops'; why is that?
Oh, and the term 'flop-flop' itself isn't actually a term, it's a 'meme' invented by the GOP. McCain has reversed his stance on every one of his purported 'core issues' and his 'Straight talk Express' has become the 'Bullshit Express'. I challenge you to find any issues which McCain hasn't, in your terms, 'flip-flopped' on. Š

I take that as a 'no' on all fronts then?
No, you don't know the issues. No, you don't know who has changed from what they said before to what they say now. No, you don't care that average incomes have dropped while average profits are up. No, you haven't noticed that the stock markets have dropped 400 points on 2000 totals. No, you can't be bothered to see for yourself what has been going on in your name by a government hell-bent on building trillion-dollar deficits of debt to Saudi Arabia and China. That's okay, Bush has taught you that you need not expose yourself needlessly to the truth in matters which effect you. It will all be just fine, the GOP is looking out for your best interests and knows better than you what those are.. Š
