He also has a great communications strategy guy in Schmidt. No way Hillary’s crew would have allowed their candidate to get hammered like the way Obama has been.

Upstate NY can be mighty conservative. People there actually work for what they have.
Poll is meaningless, though. We haven’t even had the debates yet.

Time again for Krissy Matthews and Keith OlberPunk, CNN, et al, and the rest to increase the noise of their shrillness.

When I see Ohio turn red, THEN I’ll start to believe.

It’s electoral votes- that’s what we need to focus on unless McCain really shoots ahead in the polls significantly.

This is very nice to see.

If this is true--the left is going to go into DEFCON mode.

Property destruction, breakdowns in their personal lives, acting out like even bigger crazies.

By all accounts, it should be a great week.

Sorry but most of those state polls are mid August. That is why I said current.

Heck that was back before Obama was calling himself a muslim on the Sunday morning shows. :-)

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

Amen to that. If McCain starts running away with this in the polls, some of us might get a little 'lazy.'

The usual evil Chicago Machine politics that served Obama well in the past is failing miserably nationwide.

Obama illegaly used sealed divorce records of his opponents in both his Illinois State Senate and US Senate runs.

I am from upstate--we still have a mighty hefty share of moonbats. And lots and lots of colleges cracking out mindless drones. (transplanted to Arizona (:)

Registered, voters, not likely voters. +3

"Bradley Effect" +3

"Palin Effect" +3

Overlapping "Bradley Effect" and "Palin Effect" -1.5

GREAT!!!!

About 2 weeks ago when McCain was up by 1 point, Chuck Todd NBC, as well as some at CNN said Gallup tracking poll was no good. Since then it has had Hussein up and they have been quiet about it.

It is a beauty but I would suggest that Texas is not weak GOP as the legend states in the map...

It’s an internet poll on a conservative radio station’s website.

How ironic... The libtards were dancing in the streets claiming Hurricane Gustav would ruin our convention. They just never forecasted Hurriccane Sarah. LOL!!!

So the battle will be in the toss up states. Alas, I live in one so there will be no need to go to another and volunteer...however I would go to a toss up state if needed...

The thing best about this is that McCain’s numbers are moving from the lower 40s to the upper 40s.

Very good trend - but we don’t want to peak too soon.
