I think McCain was adopting the “don’t fire till you see the whites of their eyes” strategy but my goodness how the people in FR seem to think they can run McCains campaign better than he can. Even though he has managed to get reelected how many times in Arizona?
And back then they didn’t need to have a separate category for african americans, they just used extra numbers provided by Newsweak.
awesome post on your part with this 2004 polling data. I needed this boost tonight. Thanks!
Finally a thread that provides some perspective. How did Bush ever win?
Can more like this be found? I’ve looked but had no luck.
They sure do and its amazing how someone will make a statement that is entirely untrue and all the rest will take that untrue statement and run with it and then everyone is like “ok thats it. McCain just lost my vote blah blah blah.”
I wish Ohio was in McCain’s camp already...Do you see that Ohio is allowing vote fraud already?..The Sec of State, a democrat, opened the polls to ‘early’ voters, and today anybody can walk into one of the voting places, register, get an absentee ballot, and VOTE the same day...They have seen busloads of college students nearby the voting places..Obama is using the same underhanded dirty tactics he used to crush Hillary...She never saw this tactic and was sandbagged...This should be front page news stuff but....oh yeah..msm...
Worse, the local courts upheld this early voting and 3 Federal Judges said it is not illegal....It may be legal in Ohio but it has Dirty Politics written all over it and I just hope this goes to the Supreme Court and SCOTUS shoots it down...This is the most unethical,disgraceful,petty, downright dirty trick i have ever seen over namy decades of voting...We definitely need voting reform with picture ID...No more of this malarkey...
He’s setting up his network in Pa too, so that State will be next to fall in line, even before election day....

As much as I don’t like it, I haven’t seen or heard of illegalities going on in early voting. They are just doing something the GOP hasn’t thought of or attempted yet, its perfectly within the framework of the law. I’m just hoping that the number of students/people i’ve seen out so far is just limited to my area and not representative of the state.
