“What it shows me is what a lot of people have been saying for months. This election is going right down to the wire. All of these gloom and doom polls and electoral college landslides for Barry have a purpose ... to make the conservative base stay home because it’s a “lost cause.””

I’ve posted this before, but I’ll post it again (and expect to be razzed for doing so).

Obama will win the popular vote.

McCain - if he is able to eke out a win - must do so through the electoral college. Think “Bush v. Gore all over again”, but this time expect multiple state-ballot challenges, and mass protests. It could get VERY ugly.

We will lose seats in the House - guaranteed.

We will lose seats in the Senate - again, guaranteed. There is a real possibility that the ‘rats may end up with a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate - not good.

The absolute best we can hope for is a win of the presidency that establishes some small measure of “divided government” - and that’s if McCain will give up his efforts to be “congenial” with the democrats and stand hard on conservative positions (gee, am I hoping for too much?).

Flame away, I can take it. But that’s how I’m calling it.

Believe me, I hope I’m proven completely wrong.

If McCain closes the gap in both the popular vote and the electoral college, then there is no way the RATS will pull off a filibuster-proof Senate.

Another reason why McCain must be aggressive tomorrow night and capably string a few coherent sentences together.

You are most probsbly right, but there is hope.
There are alot of Americans that aren’t political geeks
and they are very smart. They are sick and tired of being Lied too and taken as Buffoons. Nancy Pelosi(Bugeyes Piglousy) and Dinghy Harry Reid have called us failures, called Our Brave Military terrorists, Murderers and Loosers, and Our Economy in a Depression after years of badmouthing it and the lowest Unemployment ever. Dems I know dont have Obama signs out this year, they did for Lurch! They are stone quiet on Obama and many are quietly saying they are going for McCain because he closely stands for their beliefs and goals aand they are fed up with ‘Their Congress!” May GOD Continue to Bless America!
