McCain has cut into Obama's lead for a second day and is now just 1.1 points behind. The spread was 3.7 Wednesday and 6.0 Tuesday. The Republican is making headway with middle- and working- class voters, and has surged 10 points in two days among those earning between $30,000 and $75,000. He has also gone from an 11-point deficit to a 9-point lead among Catholics.

18-24 years old voters usually vote less then older groups. That’s for sure.

I notice all the McCain poll trashers move in the same well coordinated attack plan which usually means one poster with two or three accounts and they chip chip chip away at any Good McCain data .

I won’t be too surprised if McCain pulls it off but Obama annoints himself Supreme Perfect Leader of a shadow Marxist-leftist-BlackPower government, with Acorn offices as consulates and hoards of left wingers, gang members and undertrodden as eager citizen-soldiers. Quite serious.

I’m definitely not a McCain basher. This poll was a topic on talk radio tonight (local in KC) and they, too, were questioning the youngins’ going for McCain.

“I thought that was odd, too. There’s a disclaimer about the 18-24 age group at the bottom of the image, which might explain the numbers.”

But perhaps that isn’t so out of line. The fabled youth vote tsunami has yet to actually show up, and there are indications that once again, young people will go to the polls far less often than their elders.

I hate to tell you....I believe that one.

My daughter is in college here in Nashville and I bought her vote.

She knows almost no kids voting for Mccain.

Likewise the urban under 40 gang too.....most are Obamabots.

Rural folks and early genX and older white voters will tell this tale.

don’t feel bad, I supported Carter in 1976 at 18...the only time I did for a Dem.
