***John McCain’s political guru explains how he wins Pennsylvania***
Start acting like a conservative!
Yes, but there is probably 200,000 more registered voters around Philadelphia than there are citizens. How will he flip the dead voter?
Lamestream media hanging everything on these bogus polls.
um, the problem is that more people are RATS in PA now than then and McCain is not in the same position Bush was in, in 2004 in terms of enthusiasm and voters liking him.
I have family in the Philly burbs; they’re not going to McCain.
Fast Eddie will make sure he supresses our vote too.
He needs to concentrate on CO! I think he’ll keep OH and FL.

I believe McCain can win PA. There is a big undercurrent in this election. Obama has a history of not only mobilizing voters for him but also mobilizing the opposition. I’ve seen in Chesterfield county more interest in the campaign then even for Bush against Kerry. We can not keep signs and every street and I’m talking yards signs on just along the highway has McCain Palin signs popping up like flowers. There are areas of exception like Petersburg and of course Richmond and NVA. But anyone who confuses lack of love for McCain with lack of support will be greatly surprised on election day.
Ping!
McCain is in far better shape than he should be thanks to Gov Palin. She was a genius pick. Mo is definately on our side.
Here’s the question of the polls. If they are in the MOE over a few days, how do they stay on one side and not vary back and forth other than manipulation.

Iowa and New Mexico are probably lost; but Colorado still appears competitive (in fact, all but the Denver area seems to be red territory); and Virginia also seems very uncertain (although it is possible that northern Virginia could carry the state for Sen. Obama; but it is just as possible that the rest of Virginia—or ROVA, as it is sometimes termed—may carry the state for Sen. McCain).
Send a bunch of radio and tv reporters to interview Murtha. That should help.
What I see in the areas that I travel are many more McCain signs than Obama signs. I am only counting signs that are in peoples’ yards, not ones that were obviously deployed by teams of campaign workers in non-residential locations.
Obama supporters have no incentive not to proclaim their choice, while McCain supporters have the very real expectation of vandalism, or worse. Even so, there are still many more McCain signs. Kerry took this area by about 2% last time.
What’s more, signs for down-ticket DemocRats significantly outnumber Obama signs.
And, most importantly, Pennsylvania is full of bitter rednecks, clinging to their guns and bibles, and they already have their Savior. They don’t need another one.
Never say never, but McCain’s chances of flipping Pennsylvania, with the current Obama +11.4, is between nill and none. The last time a poll was for McCain was Rasmussen 04/24 = McCain +1. The last month, the polling forward momentum indicators continue to increase for Obuma.

“...since Democrat John Kerry won the state by only 140,000 votes, McCain “needs to flip” only 2,000 votes in each the state’s 67 counties.”
He needs another 2,000 in each county to counter the ACORN effect.
