Hey my FRiend, this isn’t a surrender, we’re just talking amongst FRiends about the trendlines as we understand it is all. And we could be in the dark.

I know that recently, that proved very true in the land of New Hampshire.
And the beast that is Shrillary rose again to flap its vulture like wings for all to see in hideously colored pantsuits for months more on end.

I will be making calls into Colorado, crossing my fingers and dragging my pals to the polls on Nov. 4th.

In addition I may tell others not to bother as Obama has it in the bag. (They are of course all Obamatrons.)

[Jim W N]

The difference might be, 2004 was an important election, whereas 2008 feels more like a war for the soul and future of America. Hope that difference both swings more undecided to the right and changes some minds from Obamastan to McPalin.

[Cedric]

Okay, your off the list again (temporarily).

Just try not to fall for these “Tee-It-Up” posts, designed to dishearten the faithful.

The trolls are thicker than flies on a rib roast right now.

And when you get “realistic’ it simply pours more gasoline in their negative fire.

[Le Chien Rouge]

AMEN........as far as the polls go -with regards to Chuck D of Public Enemy—”Don’t Believe the Hype”!!!....this race is gonna be VERY close....the wild-card in this election being so under-reported—the Christian Right—they got a dog in this race and when they vote, they vote in masses; hence —that’s why the MSM fear Palin, not for who she is so much but what she can bring—votes

[romanesq]

Oh okay, I think we spotted a troll earlier today. And he was getting flumoxed that no one was taking the bait although he tried to insult many a folk.

I am most certainly not about realism. I’m about victory no matter what we need to do to convince folks to join us in pulling McCain across the finish line.

The internals of this poll are different than others. The youth vote is for McCain by a wide margin.

[StarFan]

Darn. Rasmussen was on indicating the polls are tightening but won’t release his numbers until after 5:00 tonight. Having missed the start of the segment I’m not sure if he was discussing PA or all the battleground states.

[dervish]

This am Bill Sammon said that in 2004 the prediction was for the youth vote of dems to surge because of Rock the Vote. But instead the conservative religious youth vote rose due to grass roots religious rock rallies.

Also IBD polls cell phone users which most of the polls do not sample.

[Corin Stormhands]

Its great that all these college kids are jumping in...chances are they are breaking for BO....not good....so a year from now, if BO wins, and these college kids are enrolled in Community College because Mom and Dad can't afford the $45k a year because of BO’s tax hikes and other crap policies, lets make it a point to remind them about how stupid they were to vote for BO in the first place.

And just wait 'til they're required to enlist in the Hitler...er Obama Youth Corps.

I’m going to have to go out and get that. Is Firefox a browser or a html editor?

That was the media trying to cover up for the Marxist Onada’s unpleasant encounter with Joe the Plumber.

It seems to me that everytime The Messiah gets whacked his poll numbers go up. I’ll bet his numbers went up after his enocounter with Diane Fanning—the Sam’s Club lady. Has anyone else noticed this or, even better, documented it?

>>McCain was capturing 74% of 18 to 24 year olds<<

We can close our eyes or deny all we want, but the young men in that group are not voting for McCain. They are voting for the VPilf. Clearly.

(and that’s just fine with me)

[Redbob]

Thank you for making that legible.

[Redbob]

"... I’m surprised at the number for 18 - 24 year olds that are going for McCain. Not that I don’t think they should prefer him but that is against everything else I’ve heard about that demographic."

Consider the sources of what you've been hearing...

[LS]

It tracks very, very tightly with the DOW.

“It is encouraging, however, I’m surprised at the number for 18 - 24 year olds that are going for McCain. Not that I don’t think they should prefer him but that is against everything else I’ve heard about that demographic.”

I think the 18- 24 year olds realize that the American Dream is about to vanish in to a socialist funk. Why spend $100,000 on a college education to live in a land of wealth redistribution and socialist lack of opportunity. Kids aren't as dumb as we think sometimes.

[SevenMinusOne]

Actually, it shows undecided splitting evenly. Not good.

Exactly right - Not a good trend for now - Reality is McCain has to have undecideds break his way big time to win......
