If the AP is correct, Barack Obama’s base problem is very serious

The wife & I decided long ago to not take chances. No yard signs, no bumper stickers, nothing. Not having yard signs is typical for us but we always have had bumper stickers in the past. Not this year. Especially with Obama’s call to “get in their faces”, who needs the hassle.

It will be interesting Tuesday morning, the 4th, when we get up to go to vote. Not because we expect busloads of illegal voters at our polls (not here where I live), but just the turnout itself. We know the people who work the election and should have an idea of what’s happening in our little neck of the swamp...

True dat.

I personally would not tell a pollster my opinion.
I do not know who is calling, only who they say they are - and I don’t think that qualifies them to hear my opinion.

Additionally, I don’t know anyone that would answer questions.

I have seen people post here that would answer a poll, but I still consider myself part of the ‘Silent Majority’.

We have a yard sign.Everybody asks where we got it as they walk by.I was polled door to door.Told them I voted for Obama in the primary because I was sure he was the weakest candidate.Told her I switched parties to do it but in the general I was voting for McCain because he is pro-life.Told her that her candidate was leading in the polls so I was wrong about him being the weakest.She did not smile.

Yeah, there are too many “0bama’s volunteer brownshirts” out there that will commit actual politically motivated hate crimes on the opposition.

People should think about what would happen if these people get the power of gov’t behind them.

“Fox News Radio reported Obama spent ONE HOUR with GRANDMA and left. Just like his August visit.”

One wonders where the _rest_ of his time there was spent?

Cleaning up things over at the department of records?

You betcha!

Obama will get 45% nationally. Its 4 points less than his 49% vote in some polls but it seems to be about right. He has not been able to get over 50% in the home stretch of the election. All the polls with bogus double digit leads show Obama has not expanded his base of support. He's done. I called the election for McCain in September. And nothing I've seen thus far has changed my view except that the MSM has spent a great deal of time lying about their guy and doing all they can to make him appear more popular that he is really is with the country.
