I could not agree more. Good point and one to live by for the next couple of months.

Good bounce. Rasmussen has it tied, Zogby has McCain up 4, and we all know the Zog trends Democrat.

Funny, here is Zogby’s statement on his site: “In the 2004 presidential election, not only was Zogby’s telephone polling right on the money”

Uh, not...he picked Kerry to win. It was Gallup that was right on the money, Bush 51 to Kerry 48.

The FNC is saying that pollsters are hinting that McCain will see a “significant” bounce in the polls on Monday/Tuesday.

Fox just said they heard there will be a very significant bounce in the polls in the next couple of days.

We should consider this election as our side being 10 points down and fight as hard as we possibly can.

We also need to fight down-ticket races so that President McCain doesn't have to reach so much across the aisle.

State polls lag about 2 weeks behind nationals.

Watch for those polls in key states (PA, MI, OH, WI, CO, NV, NM).

I agree, but they are fun to watch and are still important to gauge where work needs to be done.

The best news I’ve seen this morning it that Milwaukee, of all places, is clamping down on voter fraud and have already charged 49 people there in the ongoing investigation. I think more states are finally waking up to the fact that our elections are starting to look like those held in third world banana republics. I appreciate the fact that they want EVERYONE to vote. My problem is, how ‘bout letting EVERYONE vote ONLY ONE TIME per election and only allow people who can fog a mirror to vote.
