All it says. Didn't see this posted yet. I believe the previous poll was Zogby: Obama 49%, McCain 43%.

The recent polls have been trending in a good direction for McCain/Palen.

Interesting. The poll we see the media using so much lately is the Gallup Poll which showed a 9-11 point Obama lead. The polls do not make much sense.

Wait till the RNC’s 160 million dollars get dropped. Obama is a walking dead man due to the fact that he’s not up 15 points.

Just like the last election, Zogby can’t look totally lame so it’s tightening up.

Obviously, the reason Imam Obama and his thugs have been whining about McCain’s “tone” is because the attacks are working.

Perhaps.

Over the past couple of weeks, every time it looks like McCain is starting to rally a little bit, the next round of polls show Obama back on top comfortably.

Sure would be nice to see the trend in our favor to continue for a change. (fingers crossed)

One thing I noticed with primary polls....especially the states in which Hillary won....The polls all were wrong on Hillary’s numbers and correct on Obama’s numbers...

For example...one poll had Hillary at 48% and Obama at 47%. Hillary went on to win 53-47

another had Hillary at 49 and Obama at 48...Hillary went on to win 52-48...so it seems I recall many races in which the polling data was very accurate with Obama but Hillary seemed to go up a bit . Now it appears Hillary picked up virtually all the undecideds in the pre-primary polling...but Obama held right where he polled at.

This could be good news...because most polls have him under 50% in most states...so there is some good news.

Gallup uses registered voters (bogus), while Zogby uses likely voters (more accurate). Of course, many of these polls over-sample DemocRATS in order to skew the results.

NRA is only helping McCain. Some of our endangered senators are not going to benefit. I’d send money to the RNC.

But gee I thought it was over. McCain has to kick butt on wednesday night. He has to explain exactly why its significant that Ayers is associated with Obama. Explain why it's something americans should be concerned with. He can't just stick to his blah-blah talking point on this.

I have to say this. Since its sunday night and there is a drudge story. Oh how I wish Drudge still had his sunday night radio show.

Our priest minces no words when it come to Obama.

Last Tuesday during scripture study one of the people asked him if there was a real devil.

He replied, "Why yes, and he is debating John McCain right now."

I talked to him afterwards, he was only half kidding.

The Gallup likely voter model has it Obama 50 McCain 46, and the Obama bots kept repeating the same mantra, the Ayers association is not working, yeah right, if McCain is within 5 on election eve, Obama has lost.

BO has outspent McCain for weeks. The RNC and NRA cash infusion will only level the playing field for the final 3 weeks.

IMHO, the mainstream media are making a big mistake by “proclaiming” Obama the inevitable winner (several have, somebody said that Beltway Boys yesterday said the race was over.)

The more comfortable the Obamatrons feel, as far as inevitability, the more likely that some complacency will set in and some won’t go to the polls.

Much better to be the underdog in that situation, where your supporters know they must get to the polls.

You could donate to the National Repubican Senatorial Committee, http://www.nrsc.org/ or the Republican Congressional Campaign Committee http://www.nrcc.org/, or directly to a candidate whose race is in jeopardy (Coleman/Dole/Sununu). I’d even give to a longshot like Jim Gilmore in VA.

The committees will not fund any non-incumbent who doesn’t look likely to win ... as I recall, they didn’t fund Santorum on his first race.

RNC’s funds will be tied up with the presidential race.

I hear this line alot : “ if Obama ain’t head by at least..... (insert number) ..... he’s lost”

On what do you base this assertion? (I’m more inclined to say that Obama will end up losing because he is insinceresubstance-free, and the only ones who dont realize this are the ones writing the narrative — not the voting public at large.)
