Race stuck in neutral

UTICA, New York—The race for President appeared to slip into neutral Thursday, as support for Democrat Barack Obama and Republican John McCain moved only slightly in the last 24 hours, the latest Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby daily tracking telephone poll shows.

Part of one day's worth of polling came after Obama's 30-minute televised campaign pitch to voters on Wednesday, but voters didn't seem to react one way or the other. The contest remained static with Obama garnering 50.1% support, compared to McCain's 43.1%.

Undecideds or those who support other candidates increased slightly to 6.8% of the sample.

Even in the demographic subgroups, the race changed almost not at all. Including Election Day, there are five days left in the race.

The Obama infomercial, in other words, was a big flop.

Well, THAT was certainly a waste of a few million dollars.

Obie’s half brother in Kenya and his Auntie in South Boston could have used a bit of it to improve their standard of living.

WHatever happened to O’s plan to take care of the least among us?

Media voter suppression. No way O+7

McCain says his internal polling says it’s a tight race. We need to show up and Vote. The MSM knows the truth, but they won’t post it....

If I had to guess, I would say that it’s anywhere from a tie to Obama up by 4 to 5 points nationally.

Gosh, I hope that the GOP can pull this one out in the last hours. I pray to God that they can.

The thought of Mr. & Mrs. Obamaturd occupying the white house is enough to make me hurl.

Twas the night before elections
And all through the town
Tempers were flaring
Emotions all up and down!

I, in my bathrobe
With a cat in my lap
Had cut off the TV
Tired of political crap.

When all of a sudden
There arose such a noise
I peered out of my window
Saw Obama and his boys

They had come for my wallet
They wanted my pay
To give to the others
Who had not worked a day!

He snatched up my money
And quick as a wink
Jumped back on his bandwagon
As I gagged from the stink

He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!

’ On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, On Pelosi’
He screamed at the pairs!

They took off for his cause
And as he flew out of sight
I heard him laugh at the nation
Who wouldn’t stand up and fight!

So I leave you to think
On this one final note-
IF YOU DON’T WANT SOCIALISM
GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!

Tomorrow is Halloween, and parents will be out with their kids...

How does he go from a tie in the beginning of the week to a 7 point lead at its close? There's no development that can explain such a sudden jump in voter sentiment. I guess the MSM thinks all the volatility in this election favors Obama.

They're gonna come out with a last barrage of Obama landslide polls to get conservatives to give up and stay home. Be prepared for it.

He says “the race changed almost not at all”

Is this guy an idiot, or what?

The pollsters know Obama is toast, but they are inflating their Obama numbers so they can blame racism when he loses.

Zogby is a bias polster. In other words, he is a partisan Democrat.

Zogby is going to be just as inaccurate as he was in 04.

Stop living and dying by the polls folks, McCain’s winning this race, and it won’t be that close at the end of the day either.

Stay positive, motivated and GOTV.
