Here's a quick and simple study for why Obama votes will not reach the projected polling data.
Let's first assume 10 democrat voters/votes from the 2006 elections and 9 Republican voters/votes. The Democrats won the '06 election by about that margin.
Now, in that 10 votes for "D" candidates in '06 there were regular voters now being characterized as PUMAs (disgruntled Hillary Democrats). From the primaries of '08 we may say there are 5 PUMA voters. If 2 of those five are so pissed off at Obama's treatment of Hilalry that they will vote for McCain/Palin, that would be a conservative count. Let's see what that does to the election we're int he middle of.
The 9 "R" voters might filter down to 8 "R" votes, just for comparisons ... we can't factor the broken glass Republicans who will vote this time but didn't bother in '06 because they were mad at the "R" for out of control spending, so the "R" might actually be 10 starting this calculation, but we'll stay with the 8 just to see what happens.
The original 10 "D" have been cut to 8 due to the disgruntled and determined PUMAs, so the "D" votes are now 8. BUT, the "R" 8 now get 2 PUMA votes, so they move to 10! Obama loses the election but the loss cannot be predicted mathematically by polling because of the assumed "D" base of votes the pollsters use to start their calculations!
For discussion, assume that the ACORN fraud votes will cancel the broken glass voters showing up this time that didn't bother to vote in '06.
Smile, have a piece of Halloween candy. The Marxist Democrat isn't going to win this election, even with his army of cheating ACORNS.
Keep me on your lists and keep this one going.
We need to keep tabs on what the evil one is doing.
"Amy God have mer4cy upon US, we are about to get what we have deserved for a long time for abandoning The Lord and allowing secular humanism become the religion of the United States. Good luck, FRiends."
Be of good cheer, we have 2 years until the midterms and 3 years to the Presidential election. Get to work, pray hard, and choose a candidate who will win.
Don’t beat yourself up over it. We were all hoping that Americans were smarter than this. Instead they elected a man who is going to take us toward communism and gutting our military and strategic weapons which will only embolden our enemies. Hopefully he’ll only be able to hurt us for four long years instead of 8. The Republican party and it’s nonsense of moving left over the last 8 years helped all this happen.
I love you.
Keep me on your ping lists, and buck up!

There’s no place left for us to go but up, MHGinTN.
You weren’t the only one thinking we might pull this one off.
Oh, don't worry, they'll STILL try to blame it all on George W. Bush, much as x42 tried to blame all the problems of his own creation on Reagan/Bush 41.
If the Republicans can get their carp together, we might even see another push like the Congressional Class of 1994. If that happens, it will be up to us to make sure this time they don't fall into the pork producing ways of their predecessors.
We need people who CARE, as you do, to stay in the fight. So get back in the game!
