Pretty confident:
Near the hometown of Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Namath, Republican vice presidential nominee Gov. Sarah Palin guaranteed a come-from-behind victory for the McCain-Palin ticket in Pennsylvania.
“This morning we were in Ohio, we were in the home of Joe the Plumber,” Palin said to a crowd of supporters packed onto the football field of Beaver Area High School near Pittsburgh, Pa., this evening. “And now, we are here in Beaver County, Pa., home of Joe the Quarterback.”
Palin was referring to former New York Jets quarterback Joe Namath, who was born and raised in nearby Beaver Falls, and led the underdog Jets to an upset win in Super Bowl III over the heavily favored Baltimore Colts, after Namath had guaranteed a win three days before the game.
“Now, Joe Namath is probably a little bit before your time,” Palin said to the high school students in the crowd. “But do you remember, though, in the biggest game of his life, all the experts had Joe Namath and the Jets written off to defeat? They were up against the elite team that had all the money, and they were held in awe by the media. And Broadway Joe replied, ‘we’re gonna win the game, I guarantee it.’ And they won.
“And I hope Joe won’t mind if I paraphrase him some in this state, his home state, Pennsylvania, with your help, we’re going to win this state. I guarantee it,” Palin said to wild applause.
Somebody’s internal polling must be looking pretty good – but, also, this is needed; with the MSM relentlessly driving home the “its all over so why don’t you GOP losers give up” meme, the GOP and GOP-leaning independents needs to keep up a high level of intensity. Turnout will be the name of the game on November 4th, and as long as the conservative and centrist majority of the United States hangs together we can stop Barack Obama in his tracks.
Given the amount of variables in this race at this point in time, it really could result in anything from Obama landslide all the way over to McCain landslide – I don’t trust anything coming out of the MSM, am mighty concerned about the accuracy of the polls and believe that Obama for America is a 24/7 Lie Machine. I’m just going to keep battling it out, commend my party and my country to God, and see how things come out on November 4th.
