  • Re: The 2008 Presidential Elections - Chapter 3

    Obama declined an invitation from BAM Racing to be one of the sponsors on their NASCAR race car.

    Nascar Nation does not strike me as his target audience. Good move Barack.

      The President will put on his top hat, duck-tail suit, and cane to sing & dance to:
      Overture! Curtain Lights
      This is It, The Night of Nights
      No More Rehearsing or Nursing a Part
      We Know Every Part by Heart
      Overture! Curtain Lights
      This is It, We'll Hit the Heights
      And Oh What Heights We'll Hit
      On With the Show This is It

        I think the many of the lyrics of "Comedy Tonight" (from "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum") would fit well.

          Since media/the public/spinmeisters can read anything they like into poll results, perhaps the results of this question gave some hope to Democrats:
          Regardless of who you are planning to vote for, who do you think will win the election in November--John McCain or Barack Obama?
          John McCain.....................................30%
          Barack Obama ..................................54%
          That result came from a poll conducted by NBC News in conjunction with that bastion of the "liberal media," The Wall Street Journal, on June 6-9, 2008.

          I read that there was another June '08 poll, from the same media, that specifically showed Sen. Obama with an 18-point lead over Sen. McCain, but I have yet to find it.

            Good move to ignore NASCAR Racing?

            Should he be sponsored by a basketball team like the Harlem Globetrotters?

              Nascar has about 75 million fans. Give or take. Racing, in general, is the number one sport in America, way ahead of the NFL in a distant 2nd. McCain has already had lots of contact with this group.

              So with that many voters, how best for Obama to get to them? Or should he play his limited time in other venues?

              And why don't Obama go on Bill O'Reilly? Clinton avoided O'Reilly until she desperately needed to do something to try to win. Her poll numbers jumped instantly after her appearance on The Factor. But it was too little, too late.

                Auto racing is really hurting by the higher gas prices. Consumers don't want to be reminded by a sport that uses gas. Corporate sponsors of racing cars are pulling out their advertising dollar from these races to cover their losses caused by higher gas prices.

                  AFAIK, NASCAR and Indy Racing Series have been using Ethanol.

                    That sounds right. I don't watch auto racing. The racing cars run on ethanol, but those sponsors on the cars and all over the driver's jumpsuit are oil dependent.

                      Gatorade, 7-Eleven, and Best Buys are oil-dependent?

                      Let's face it, we still going to need oil to reduce friction, except for bedtime play.

                        Because he'd rather talk with professional news people?

                          Current NASCAR - left turn, left turn, left turn, left turn... boring.
                          They need to get back to road tracks like Laguna Seca and Riverside, and burn alcohol!

                          BTW, did anybody listen to the second hour of www.coasttocoastam.com last night?
                          Discussing the history of how we got screwed into this gas BS. Whata total scam!

                              It's apparent that I'm not the only one who enjoyed the "BUGS BUNNY/ROADRUNNER" cartoon show.
