I definately believe it. Obama has surogates that are hard to beat. But I think dukakis had a similar lead. We need a Obama Dukakis moment.

The stock market isn’t helping out. In fact it is a Godsend to the Obama forces.

I was not impressed with John McCain’s performance in the first debate . .

He did not seem to have a handle on the economy or the causes of the current sub-prime melt-down.

Dukakis had a lead in July and August, but by the beginning of October he had lost it to H.W. Bush. At this time in 88 it was Bush 46, Dukakis 40.

New polls today out of Virginia have Barry up by 10. We have our work cut out for us.

Dukakis peaked right after his convention, and by the time the Republican convention closed he was already lagging in the pools and never won them again.
