They are dimwitted and hold an immeasurable fascination for “Him” through brainwashing.

Fortunately a LOT of them will be too stoned, hungover, or too lazy to actually cast a vote for their moron idol.

Well, NYC is rabidly hard left, so this is no surprise. NYC, the gimme city.

A lot of democrat voters still don’t get it that Barack Hussein is not their grandfathers’ and fathers’ democrat. They are voting for the party and not the radical socialist. They are too stupid to see that.

I’ve thought all along that the purpose of that was to meet privately with the people who are really controlling the behind-the-scenes decisions of this campaign. What better way to keep the cameras off than to plead a dying grandmother? If that was the case, wouldn’t he bring his wife and children to see her?

I have been seeing almost as many Ron Paul for President bumper stickers as I do Obama. McCain yard signs are very popular in my town but we are small and far away from the liberal centers in NY.

These college polls, which are springing up like weeds, are jokes and should not be taken seriously.

Great analogy! This appears to be the case for perhaps 30% of democrats. The party has left (literally) them, and they don't realize it. Many seniors without internet probably would be shocked if they saw a lot of the Obama tapes on youtube.

New York exported it’s brains years ago. Now they’re in places like VA, NC, SC, FL, NV and AZ. All red states I might add. (regardless of the pap that the MSM is spreding around).

**Obama ahead, 62-31 percent**

I find it interesting that this percentage matches almost to the point, a story on FOX News, covering the POSITIVE News stories.
TV NEWS Positive stories about NOBAMA - 61%

TV NEWS Positive Stories about McCain 31%

HMMMMMM ...

Doesn't matter. Whether it's +1 or +50 for Obama in NY, he'll still get the same number of electoral votes.

This highlights another possible reason why the national polls are off. Huge margins for Obama in NY, CA and other soclialist hotbeds may be inflating the breadth of his support.

In a way this is excellent news Obama is 31 points up in NY state and Rasmussen has Obama 27 points up in California-an example of overkill in two of the most populous states in the Union. How then can McCain only be down just 3-5 points nationally? Answer: he is improving in the battleground states.

Didn’t Kerry take NY by like 60-40? I’m almost surprised McCain is doing this well. If the people there want more taxes, less growth, less freedom then fine. They are welcome to it. Just like MI. Dolts.

They Run away from the bs in NY, and where they end up they say “Back in NY we did it this way”.. so they won’t be red states for long.. Look at what they did to FLORIDA!

New York, Massachusetts, Kalipornia, Maryland, Illinois and New Jersey are hardly part of America anyway anymore.

First Bloomberg was Democrat, then he became a Republican (RINO BRAND) and then an idependent.

Looks like he’s now swishing his way to Fascist.

There’s no reason for any conservative to live, visit, buy from or contribute anything to the state of New York. The state is a menace to the nation. Worse than California.

Just like MI.

MI is in dire straights and folks are leaving in droves to find jobs. Maybe next election, the number of MI blue electoral votes will have dwindled.
