That state is composed of some of the purest elements of Germanic racial stock found in this nation. Left-leaning political affiliations would seem to be very unbefitting to such a heritage.

Minnesota is composed not only of Germans, but also of Norwegians, Swedes and Danes. I needn’t remind you of the left-leaning political tendencies of the people of these countries, who ostensibly share the same heritage.

Germanic doesn’t mean German. Germanic people are Northern Europeans. ie Germans, English, Swedes, Norwiegens, dutch, etc.[/quote]

Oh, I know that. And in fact, Nominal is probably using the word as a euphemism for “Nordic” and “Aryan,” and then only because the expression “die heilige Herrenrasse” is not widely understood on T-Nation.

Gotcha, I missed that. Minnesota is actually very racially diverse. We have a lot of Somalis(sp?) Hmong, Mexicans, Blacks, etc. Quite a few Irishmen like myself as well.

You need to adopt a more “Roman” attitude. Don’t care so much about the hoi polloi.

I think you meant “Don’t care so much about the plebs.” Not caring about hoi polloi would be a Greek attitude. [/quote]

Thanks. You’re right, I should have said “plebs”.

Yes, that’s what I meant. America was founded by Germanic peoples. Britain, Canada, and Australia are all Germanic nations…or were founded as such, at any rate.

I do believe that Germanic is a valid ethnological term, in and of itself. The terms Nordic and Aryan are not entirely analogous. Nordic refers to a particular sub-race of the larger branch of Indo-European peoples.

Everybody loves Nordics, but not everyone from the afore-mentioned countries is a nordic. There are other sub-races, including Alpines, Baltics, Lapps, and a plethora of mixed types to be found in all populations.

You certainly needn’t remind me of the political climate in Scandinavia. I find it very sad. But I think liberalism is on the way out. Conservatism will make a resurgence sometime this century.

I actually think McCain might pull off a win.

Not because McCain is good (he isn’t), but because the Dems are so stinkingly bad.

Leave it to the Dems to blow things at the last minute.

What’s your take on McCain’s chances, Mick?

47

NP:

I’m not Mick, but I’ve been thinking about this lately…

I think McCain can pull it off for two reasons (One has been proven…and one is just a “feeling” I have…)

  1. One should never underestimate the “Republican Machine” (and I think that some of Obama’s latest moves probably show that his campaign is not underestimating it. The “RM” ain’t like running against Hillary…)

  2. The McCain campaign and the Republican Machine have been relatively “quiet”?

Less than four months to go, and not one “scare” commercial or Op Ed “revelation” that Obama actually funds terrorist groups or something? Or of Obama visiting Syrian Brothels?

“The Machine” is just being too “quiet”…which can be a sign of confidence going into the final stretch before the election…

This thing is FAR from a “shoe-in” for the Dems.

Even Ann Coulter has been a little “sedate”? concerning Obama…

Yeah…there is some funny schtick that she has about Obama being the least scary Hussein…but c’mon! (Part of the problem may be that she is less-than-enthusiastic about McCain and is quoted as saying “I will be voting AGAINST Obama, not FOR McCain”…)

Am I missing something in thinking that things are “Too quiet on the Republican Front”?

It probably has to do with the fact that for the past 8 years the Religious wing of the Conservative movement basically took over the GOP, and most of the attention grabbing media (aka Fox News and others). It got almost to the point where any centrists Republicans, fiscal conservatives, libertarians, etc, who also form part of the Conservative Movement in the US were being called fake-Republicans because of they did not have a religious agenda.

I am Voting McCain, and I am 100% behind him. But many of my fellow Republicans are not 100% enthusiastic about McCain because he is all crazy about the religius agenda.

Thats a main reason why “Republican Front” has been rather quite. But I should remind you fellas the RNC (republican national committee) is doing one hell of a job fund raising. Although CNN doesn’t report it.

(p.s I have no gripe religion fellas, don’t get me wrong. But the Christian Right has really pissed me off when it puts social-nitpickings before the economy and security, while letting the gov�??t get bigger and more intrusive.)

Neo:

I did see it mentioned on the News (I think last week) how the RNC’s fundraising has now overtaken that of the Obama Campaign/Democrats.

I don’t think you’re missing anything. I don’t see how any conservative could get excited about McCain. Just anohter opportunity to vote for “dumb” instead of “dumber”.

Ann has kind of gone off the deep end lately anyway. A couple of her early books were very clever and entertaining. The last one or two were really bad.

Well thats good to hear.

anywho one thing is for sure. If McCain wins he will owe a LOT to the RNC.

with regards to the VP. The only guy I see who could be one hell of a VP is my man, “Colin Powell”.

But from what I know of the guy he is REALLY not into politics. Especially campain politics.

Nobody with half a brain would want to be P or VP. That’s why we are stuck with the degenerates we’ve had lately. It’s too bad, I think he would be solid as well. Personally I think it’s a little embarassing that we haven’t had a female or Black president yet.

The RNC could put up a few good candidates. I would love to see Republicans put a women and/or minority in the white house before the PC leftists. Condi in 2013! She’s too smart to run though.

56

Well the RNC doesn’t really select candidates now days. They used to though.

Anywho… I really don’t care about a candidate’s color, gender or whatever, all I care is what he/she has done, is going to do, and is about.

Regarding Condi… she just ain’t right in my book.

57

The Republicans are scared of running a Mormom, nevermind a minority.

You read the brilliant Annie? Very cool! She’d be a better POTUS of the USA than any one of this crop, except for Ron Paul. She’s brilliant and has ideals.

HH:

It’s pretty interesting that I first heard about Ann and her views when she was regularly appearing on “Bill Maher”. She seemed to really hold her own in an argument when most of his panel is heavily Liberal. (Kudos to Maher for periodically thanking the conservatives who will agree to even come on his show and debate. She is one of them).

Back to the original topic.

I am scratching my head in reading that Romney is even still in the DISCUSSION for the VP post. (Granted, it may not be that serious of a discussion, but its still there).

I still say that McCain will not risk the Evangelical Right.

Someone made a statement earlier about if they don’t vote for McCain were we crazy enough to believe that they would Vote for Obama?

No…I don’t think so…and I think that with Romney on the ticket they simply would not Vote at all.

Thoughts?

A neo-nazi. Great. I hope this isn’t indicative of the kind of person who posts on T-Nation.
