ELECTORAL VOTE
October 9, 2008
KERRY 280 BUSH 248
Does anyone remember the Kerry's landslide that came afterwards ? Oh... wait...
I’m figuring McCain-Palin will beat Barack HUSSEIN Saetoro...er...Obama by six to ten million votes and maybe more.
OCTOBER 9, 2004
Kerry wins by a significant margin according to polls
OCTOBER 9, 2008
Obama wins by a significan margin according to polls
Was there any talk of a landslide 4 years ago?
They just said Obama up by 8 in Virginia. Sorry, don’t believe it. But McCain-Palin need to come to Virginia soon for a rally. Very soon.
I have NEVER seen the base so excited!
Anyone who fails to vote or chages his vote because of polls should have his voting rights revoked. Sadly, fools cannot be excluded from the voting process.
So...
It would appear that Gallup, Marist COllege, and the much-maligned Zogby called that race correctly.
But seriesly you make a good point. Don't trust these polls people. They are not accurate. The same thing happened in 2004 and 2000. Democrats would love for you to go quietly into the night. Don't surrender without a fight!
They will be in Richmond next Monday.
ACORN has obviously falsely registered MILLIONS AND MILLIONS of voters and obviously shows them as registered DEMOCRATS. The pollsters then see these waves of democratic registrations and “fix” their numbers to reflect what they THINK will be the voting demographics. Only those people won’t be showing up to vote, so the democratic turnout is being GREATLY exaggerated, which means McCain may well be ahead in a legitimate poll.
Agreed! I would also tell people to keep contributing and donating as well.
They're going to be in Virginia Beach on Monday.
“...much-maligned Zogby.”
LOL!
It always strikes me as funny, that the guy who has consistently gotten it right is the target of so many ignorant attacks.
Oh well, just shows that bigots hate truth.
Ain't that the truth!
Gore had a narrow lead in 2000:
http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0EIN/is_2000_Oct_24/ai_66305753
In the article above:
Among the states in Harris Interactive’s October poll, Al Gore holds a 262 to 122 Electoral College advantage over George Bush. Overall, including best estimates for states not in the Harris Interactive poll, it is estimated that Gore holds a 317 to 221 advantage over Bush, with 270 needed to win. According to Harris Interactive analysts, it is important to recognize that Gore’s advantage is based on very narrow leads in a few large states:
— Florida (25 Electoral College votes), Gore leads by 49% to 43% in October,
down from 52% to 43% in September.
— Missouri (11), Gore leads by just 48% to 44%.
— New Jersey (15), Gore leads by 48% to 40%, down from 58% to 34% in
September.
— Ohio (21), Gore leads by just 48% to 45%, down slightly from 49% to 44%.
— Washington (11), Gore leads by just one point (45% to 44%).
I also remember that, on Election Day itself, Kerry had already won, as evidenced by exit polls.
It is clear that Obama and the other rats are trying to steal the election.
To any reasonable, patriotic, logical American, who to vote for is obvious.
The liberal media has always tried to portray a picture of the immense numbers of supporters, yet, abortion is legal because of a few activist judges, and it is the same story for gay marriage. The millions upon millions of liberal supporters just does not happen.
The MSM is hell bent on taking the conservative base for a ride and making us believe that our vote will not count because so many more liberals have already anointed The One as president. This race is not over. Fortunately the attention span of most libs is days, no more than a week. The later all of the skeletons come out of Obambi’s closet, the more likely a landslide on the conservative side is.
well i sent them 20 bucks this month (all i can afford) and already voted via absentee voting
How about the [Republican] MORONS in Florida in 2000 that walked away from the polls before voting because the networks called the state early for Gore, while polls were still open?
The Democrat party does not have a monopoly on stupid constituents. More of them, yes, but not all of them.
I'm voting and I don't give a crap how far ahead or behind my candidate is.
McCain will be in Richmond next Monday. All FReepers in the area please “ride to the sound of the guns”. Opps, shouldn’t mention General Phil Sheridan’s quote in Richmond. (Sorry, didn’t want to open old wounds).
How about where is General Lee when you need him?
Obama is the biggest threat to this country that I can remember
Just the fact he is running is a disaster
McCain should be burying him in the polls
Forget the Bradley effect —McCain should be way ahead without it
There is no way the MSM will ever get righted
They are stocked to the gills with left wingers and the majority of Americans are led like sheep
The McCain/Palin rally here in WI today was fantastic - we got the former Mr. Across the Aisle slapping Democrats heads like an angry Badger today...he’s lit ‘em up here!
That subset being the MORON subset.
“They just said Obama up by 8 in Virginia. Sorry, dont believe it. But McCain-Palin need to come to Virginia soon for a rally. Very soon”.
...They’ll be here in Richmond, VA at 1:00 Monday at the Arthur Ashe Center. I don’t buy the 8 points either. I don’t see the ground game that Kerry and Gore had which I think is a big indicator.
The new Virginia poll is from PPP - a Democrat pollster.
And his campaign manager, that afternoon, said "May I be the first to call you Mr. President?"
LOL! He was also the last.
Actually the exit polling was wrong too on November 3rd. I remember a stunned Britt Hume saying "I don't understand it, the vote tallies do not match the exit polling".
That is a weird site that chooses the most recent poll, a single poll, to assign a state, and it assigns state in a hard yes or no fashion (only tied states are listed as up for grabs). That projection was actually dead on— the states Kerry lost were within MOE in the poll and on Election Day.
Never underestimate the Bradley Effect.
>>Anyone who fails to vote or chages his vote because of polls should have his voting rights revoked. Sadly, fools cannot be excluded from the voting process.
Too bad dead people can’t...I’m just sayin’
all well and good... but where is this fired-up guy during the debates?
Zogby’s special sauce. The Democrats used inflated poll results as “proof” that the election had been “stolen”; they wouldn’t admit that the books were cooked to supress the vote “it’s already been lost, Republicans”.
Donate and volunteer. Go to your local McCain HQ this weekend.
No football games on TV. Sorry. Watch the Sunday night game.
In Gore's and Kerry's cases, I think the Republican margin of victory was substantially greater than the vote count showed, and that there were simply not enough fradulent votes to make up the difference, hence the Democrat's general disbelief at the Republican victory.
This time, however, they seem to be pulling out the stops in favor of garnering an overwhelming percentage of the vote, even if the votes/voters have to be fabricated.
Good to hear.
OCTOBER 9, 2004
Kerry wins by a significant margin according to polls
OCTOBER 9, 2008
Obama wins by a significan margin according to polls
History repeats itself.
The MSM are already saying if Obama loses it’s because of racism. These junk polls propping up Hussein are going to cause riots when he loses.
A couple of years ago, I was in Boston on business. A cabbie told me an interesting tale, which I later found out is true in concept, though I can’t confirm the specific details of the event he described.
As he drove me past the State House, he said there is a side door into the building that traditionally is reserved for entry only by the President of the United States. Sometime after Kerry was defeated in 2004, he traveled to the State House to make a speech or some other business. He actually tried to enter through that door. They would not let him walk through it, and he was forced to walk around to a different entrance.
That was the cabbie’s story anyway.
I see dead people (your tagline)
I see dead people too and they are voting.
We stomped Kerry here (+5) in Florida but we worked HARD at it with lots of volunteers. Kerry flooded FL with MoveON.com paid thugs.
Soros decided this year to attack the markets (shorting) after Obama,Ayers, ACRON put Cloward-Piven in place after infecting Fannie & Freddie to spread garbage mortgages.
Obama is a FAR less attractive candidate than Kerry in FL. Obama will get fewer Jewish voters and we are going to get at least 20% of white Hillary Democrats if not more.
Donate and volunteer for McCain-PALIN 2008
The thing you have to worry about...is that falsely registered new voters...do actually vote.
What I see here....is a vast land of opportunity for lawsuits after this election. Ten college kids could dismantle an entire county listing of registered voters and within 30 days....show who actually exists and who doesn’t. Those guys who vote twice or more....are going find themselves in a courtroom....spending several thousand dollars on legal costs....and then finding themselves in some kind of jail situation for two months. Its just not worth it.
And the candidate who won? He has to sit there while several thousand of his supporters are facing court. Here in spring 2009....I’m expecting a very organized effort to put threat of jail into the hearts of 5,000 Americans.
