Rasmussen shows he lost the edge in the electoral votes the end of August. It’s all down hill for Hussein.

I think Barry’s lost his mojo.

Not a good analogy. Tom Brady is out for the season.

Expect the left to become totally unhinged now (yes, even more than they have been).

Until the Palin pick, I think near 100% of McCain voters had already resigned themselves to the prospect of McCain losing and they would just deal with it. With Palin this is no longer the case, but a loss in Nov. will not be the end of the world for McCain supporters. And they view Palin as pushing a far more conservative agenda than we have seen in a long time leading to 2012. And that is a positive and something to look forward to following a loss.

Obamabots are a whole different story. I do not believe that the Obamabots are prepared for a loss, either emotionally or mentally. Obama is The Messiah. The Chosen One. Their Saviour. America's Saviour! He can't loss. Not after 8 years of the evil Bush and McCain being more of the same. It isn't possible.

They have 8 years of pent up frustration, hate, and rage that an Obama victory will erase and all will be good in the world. If, and its still a big if, Obama does lose, it is unknown, but halfway predictable how all that rage and hate is going to be vented. It isn't going to be pretty.

I for one and looking forward with great glee at the prospects of watching several million Obamabot heads expolode at the same time when Katie Couric announces, wiping a tear away, President Elect John McCain.

time for Joe to get that medical check up, where he discovers he's developed some unforseen medical condition that will require him to drop out

That would be Craino-Rectal Inversion, but unfortuantely, Biden has suffered from it all his life.

I think it will get even better after the debates. Obama can't speak without a prompter and Biden is so full of himself Palin will make a fool out of him.

I guess this explains the New Yawk Slimes hit piece on the Palin baby that is supposed to be coming out.

I was worried about Mccain’s ability to get his numbers out of mid 40’s. Seemed like before every time polls tightened it was Obama slipping back. This has to be the Palin effect. We will probably see a bunch of battleground state polls in the next few days. Hopefully , these numbers will carry over.

This will only make the loony left that much more desperate. Don’t be surprised if they start pulling a Bill Ayers and bombing GOP voting strongholds on election day. In the meantime, we still have to deal with the MSM smear machine that appears intent on saying and doing anything to win.

I remember that Kerry schooled Bush in one of those debates and it made a difference

Trust me on this! I will bet $1000 that there is no way that the gaffing man-child Bambi comes out ahead in any debate with McCain. NO WAY, NO HOW!

And they buried the most important news of a 10 point lead in likely voters down in the 7th paragraph. Typical USA Today.

In addition, two of the three days polled are weekend days when Democrats have held a historical advantage.

And 50%-46% among registered voters...

This is hugh. This is series. This could be the end of Obamania.

Look for the Donks to pull a Torricelli Switch in about 10 days.

I think the last minute DWI story is what made it close.

“Not a good analogy. Tom Brady is out for the season.”

I’m not a Patriots fan but was saddened to hear the news. He’s good for the NFL and is one that makes it exciting to watch.
