I don’t read newspapers or magazines. I don’t watch cable news either. I just filled out my ballot and I’ll drop it off tomorrow.

I guess I’m a low information voter too! You’all can thank me on the 5th when McCain wins!

Nah, nah, they're INFORMED voters because they're voting Democrat! Don't you get it? :-)

Do you think they have any actual, real “hard numbers” on that? I’m thinking tghet don’t; more like a *just a guess*. (sigh)

They are trying to get out out the Obama vote.

I’ve just got this terrible feeling that given the media will really overplay how well Obama and the rest of the dems are doing to get the above mentioned vote, as well as to try to demoralize and hurt the republican base turnout.

Obviously, it's not working, because if this were true they wouldn't be panicking over a possible McCain win.

The irony is that the Hispanic, pro-life, pro-family illegal aliens may be the ones who wind up saving America from Obumbling. Almighty God can use those votes against the Democrats. It would certainly be a fitting payback--the Democrats have used these people long enough for their own ends. How can they claim vote fraud when they are the ones who put the mechanism in place?

Hispanics have serious moral and spiritual reservations about electing a pro-abortion "black" man as President. It doesn't matter how many freebies he's offered them, he's no different than the smooth-talking Mexican politicians they despise and they see right through him. They also take their religious faith far more seriously than American Catholics. For instance, if Prop 8 wins in California it will be in large part to this voting bloc.

Something that was very interesting this morning was on the Chris Stigall show, on KCMO-710am in Kansas City, the Roman Catholic Bishop for KC/St Joseph, MO was on the air and he pretty much said that you can't be Catholic and vote for Obama. I'm not Catholic, but I loved it!

Glad that Bishop spoke out to the shock of all Missouri. A Bishop in St. Louis said the same thing. A vote for Obama isn't just a vote for hell on earth, but Hell in the hereafter also. Who can justify voting for the mass murder of the unborn? Obama's promises are pottage.

This is a spiritual battle, and the Bishops know it. Pray, fast, and vote.

I don't know how much you bet but as of this morning you could get $100.00 for a $9.50 bet on Intrade. Extremely good odds for those that think that McCain has even a remote possibility of winning and a windfall bet for those that think he is going to win in a landslide.

Heh... early November, before the election, a soft-core hatchet job on McCain, not surprisingly, from Newsweek.

I did not make that bet. I knew full well that McLame was going to lose.
