In years past the bi-monthly Gallup was the one everyone cited. The daily tracking poll is the one now but that is a recent creation. Just who’s wasting who’s time? Stop whining. We are WINNING.

The FRAUDcasters and the snObamites are making it very easy to remain engaged - that’s for sure.

If inner city blacks riot and burn down the inner city, they will have solved half the problem of urban redevelopment. If they try that kind of stuff in suburbia, they’ll end up shot and dead, and black home owners will be one of the people shooting them.

I live in a suburb of Jackson, MS and the neighborhood is 50/50 black/white. They have worked for what they have and they’ll be the first ones to shoot the inner city types dead. You’ve got a lot that secretly vote Republican, because many successful blacks are more conservative than suburban whites: especially when it comes to abortion and gay marriage.

I think many people were looking at the same old junk and were sitting on the fence because they just did not care much for McCain, but when he picked Sarah they saw the ray of light needed to make up their minds and get excited.

She's like, a normal person! A rarity in politics.

TEN POINTS DOWN 57 days before election day isn’t “Extreme”.

It’s a FREAKIN’ DISASTER, for Democrats...
And many pundits are saying it could go EVEN HIGHER.

The Cult of OBAMA has come to an end.

Gallup probably does what the pollsters think is clever.

They ask “would your NEIGHBOR vote for a black person?” thinking that the person being polled is going to answer THAT question any more honestly.

If you’re asking if I’m convinced that the Gallup daily tracking has superceded the Gallup bi-monthly in prominence, then don’t bother. I’m convinced. But in times past with all those historical polls, there was no Gallup daily tracking in the time of Dukakis. That was the Gallup monthly/bi-monthly. It just happens to be sponsored by USA Today now.

Watch the MSM and the Dems put the policy of personal destruction into warp speed. Fasten your seat belts. It is going to be a bumpy ride.

I believe (HONESTLY, NOW) that Hitlery’s BEST CHANCE to be elected for president now would be to WORK FOR McCAIN/PALIN.

She needs to work for the sista’ now, not slam her - then in ‘12 or ‘16 she could tout how she worked across the aisle, etc.
“but I disagreed about other issues so would like to do it my way instead of Sarah’s”

The RCP average is only +1 because of that one poll that has Obama up 6

Where’s the Zogby poll that has McCain up by 4?

Throw out the outlier poll and add the Zogby poll and the average is about McCain +5

Still +1 is good. 1st time for McCain to be that high since March. And we will climb higher next week.

Yes, thanks be to the Lord. Although sometimes we don’t deserve it, our wonderful Lord always blesses us. Thank you, Jesus.

McCAin needs a MASSIVE lead to counter media bias and fraud.
