I think that McCain will get over 289, because I think NV, NM, and CO will be Red by November 1st.

You know, my first reason for wanting McCain to win is that he is better, at least, than Obama. Loves the country more, is willing to fight for it, etc.

But a very close follow-up reason is to watch the fall-out, the melt-down, the anguish, the despair, the incredulous misery, the ranting and wailing and howling frenzy of the liberals. The gnashing of teeth. The rending of clothes. So sweet, their tears. All that.

Can only imagine to what level the networks and MSM et al; will ratchet up their attacks. Will they all morph into Olberman and Matthews? Think the ‘foam’ is going to fly.

Pay Attention

You couldn’t get a job at McDonalds and become district manager after 143 days of experience.

You couldn’t become chief of surgery after 143 days of experience of being a surgeon.

You couldn’t get a job as a teacher and be the superintendent after 143 days of experience.

You couldn’t join the military and become a colonel after a 143 days of experience.

You couldn’t get a job as a reporter and become the nightly news anchor after 143 days of experience.

But
‘From the time Barack Obama was sworn in as a United State Senator, to the time he announced he was forming a Presidential exploratory committee, he logged 143 days of experience in the Senate. That’s how many days the Senate was actually in session and working.

After 143 days of work experience, Obama believed he was ready to be
Commander In Chief, Leader of the Free World .... 143 days.

We all have to start somewhere. The Senate is a good start, but after 143 days, that’s all it is - a start.

AND, strangely, a large sector of the American public is okay with this and campaigning for him. We wouldn’t accept this in our own line of work, yet some are okay with this for the President of the United States of America?

Come on folks, we are not voting for the next American Idol!

funny thing about the fivethirtyeight website is that I read a real lefty blog here in Miami and these guys have been pushing fivethirtyeight as the only reliable site for polling data.

There is a graphic on the lower right side with poll detail. Basically this takes all the polls taken in each state and determines whether it is safe, likely, or lean Dem or GOP. There are a lot of Safe GOP states, but the only safe Dem states are: RI, DC, and VT. Illinois, California, MASS! are all Likely Dem, among others. If this keeps up, Cali and NY will be the new swing states.

Why was fivethirtyeight.com characterized as “left”? Is that just an opinion or is there some evidence behind that characterization?
