Definitely not time to celebrate, but WOW! This thing is looking more and more like a blowout. It’s getting to the point where he will be forced to focus all his money and time into just a few reliably republican state’s. Leaving him in a position where he has no margin of error.

That’s the bomb that has’nt been dropped yet. I hope McCain is saving the Wright, and Ayers ammo for the final blow. I think there are still alot of people who dont even know about that.

There are large senior citizen voter populations in Florida and Pennsylvania, so I think the smart thing for 0bama to do is to run advertisements mocking people who are too behind the times to use email.

What do you think?

Strategic Vision Pollster Predicted Palin VP Pick last year
newxmax ^ http://www.newsmax.com/insidecover/Pollster_Predicted_Palin_/2008/08/30/126415.html?utm_medium=RSS

David E. Johnson, CEO of Strategic Vision, LLC accurately predicted the presidential nomination of Arizona Senator John McCain in 2007 on POTUS Radio when all political experts had written McCain’s obituary.

Johnson also predicted that Alaska Governor Sarah Palin would be McCain’s running mate in March 2007.

Johnson reiterated that Palin would be the candidate following Barack Obama’s selection of Joseph Biden as his running mate.

Johnson based his predictions upon polling done by Strategic Vision, LLC in key battleground states and his own political expertise of over twenty years.

“Based upon our polling in key battleground states in 2007 and early 2008, all indicators pointed to John McCain as the only plausible Republican presidential nominee,” said David E. Johnson, CEO of Strategic Vision, LLC. “Our polling showed that McCain was the second choice of the other candidate’s supporters particularly in Florida which really made McCain’s nomination possible.

Our polling in 2008 have shown that Barack Obama underperforms among female voters particularly in the states of Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin that provides an opening for Senator McCain,” continued Johnson.

“Additionally, John McCain has a unique opportunity to present the future of the Republican Party in his vice presidential selection.

All of this indicated a strong dedicated conservative that would be outside of the box and Sarah Palin headed that list along with her appeal to social and fiscal conservatives and her moving life story.

Strategic Vision polling in the key battleground states of Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Florida, and non-traditional battleground states such as New Jersey indicate that 25% to 35% of Hillary Clinton supporters will not vote for Barack Obama and might consider voting for John McCain based upon his running mate.

...even though McCain began buying Florida TV ads only last week.

Who needs ads?

Then we’ll want Pittsburgh too.

Point is, Ohio has no ginormous nexus of liberalism like PA does.

If McPalin carries PA (McPalin will carry Florida, so I’m not even factoring it into the equation), then the game is over.

OHIO is key....get that, and the rest are easy.

Considering Republicans needed Ohio and Florida in both 2000 and 2004 to win, it is quite unlikely that McCain can win without Ohio and Florida. If McCain were to win Pennsylvania and all other states stay the same as 2004, Obama will lose.

"i hope the o’bama money starts to dry up soon.

He could raise money if he goes on stage to the microphone with a cigar in his left hand and a triple martini in his right hand. Give Biden a triple scotch on stage.

Have you noticed B.B. King never endorsed anyone? His blues speak for a lot of people. He's not stupid.

“I see lots of Obama signs here in Orlando. Not so many McCain”

Why would McCain supporters subject their property to vandalism by putting out a McCain sign?

No joke

With the future of the USA on the line, a little risk of vandalism is a small price to pay....

People all across the USA need to see that the momentum has shifted to McCain/Palin... especially those who are stuck with the mainstream lib media as their only source of information.

BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA !

great pic!!

I can verify Hussein has been advertising on tv in Florida. He is sickening. All of them now are “McCain & Bush are buddies” themed. Real yawners, but I’m glad to see he is WASTING HIS RESOURCES in Florida.
