WOWWWWWW

there is something going on with main stream voters.

I told my lovely wife on Friday that Obama at times came off as sinister in the debate...and she agreed. No one has mentioned that...am i alone here?

I still believe there is a tad of fear for mainstream America on this guy.

That’s funnny because the libmedia was telling us over the summer that mcCain was “no lock” for Arizona.

HOLY CRAP!

Granted, McCain is from Arizona, but there is a huge, vocal Obama contingent here. Just a couple weeks ago, the Arizona Republic ran a front page article about the way that Obama could take Arizona.

I see massive numbers of Obama signs everywhere. Even within walking distance of McCain's headquarters in Phoenix.

Then again, I saw the same thing with Ron Paul in the primary.

Last night, McCain was at odds with almost every Congressman from Arizona. Last night, the Dow had just dropped 777 points and McCain was taking the heat for not being able to rally Republicans to support his bill. If McCain was ever vulnerable in Arizona, it should have been last night.

Gallup... McCain gained 1, and Obama lost 1 - from 8 down to 6.

Today: 49/43
Yesterday: 50/42

in 1964. Napolitano (Dem) won Governor in what 2004 or 2006? I think being up 21 in Arizona may rub off on Colorado hopefully and maybe New Mexico.

Well, at least he’ll win one state.

I think he can count on this one.

I think the recent polls are just reflecting how frustrated people are with the economy. Their first instinct is to blame Bush and they lump McCain in with him. On election day I believe many will not vote for Obama or they may not vote at all.

Barely. By around 5000 votes.
