Prayer works, miracles happen :-)
I think “Carl from Ohio” was doing radio satire.
I am from Texas. I know, I know - Texas is a given for McCain. But, I have heard that the elderly are coming out in droves to vote for McCain. I know two people personally that are in their 50’s/60’s and have never voted in their lives who have registered so they can vote McCain. And finally, a lifelong, leftwing co-worker has been doing a lot of reading online to find out the “real” deal on the differences between the Obama tax plan and the McCain plan and she is not only voting McCain - she has been reformed and is now a solid conservative (in her 40’s). There has to be many more of these types of people in other states. There’s real hope, people.
Democrats don't win Pennsylvania, they win Philadelphia and the rest of the state comes along as a bonus. In 2004, Kerry won Pennsylvania by 150,000 votes. But his margin of victory in Philly was 410,000 votes. It won't be any different this time. Obama needs a narrow win around Erie and Pittsburgh and the Philadelphia collar counties, and the usual results in Philly and he's in. Results from the southeast and central won't matter.
Complete nonsense. People who believe this crap are in for a long and disappointing night.
who wizzed in your corn flakes? Way to make friends and influence people... Whip out the ‘newbie’ slam... Interesting that you don’t want to defend these laughable ‘internals’. I’d be thrilled if this pans out, but I’m moderating my enthusiasm. McCain has a path toward victory that is clearer each day and I am fighting to make sure that he wins. The false hopes and leaked ‘internals’ is a huge psy-ops game played by both campaigns. Use your heads and make a reasoned argument in support of these ‘internals’. Otherwise, save your angst for the real newbie trolls, not folks working hard to drag McCain across the finish line on Tuesday.
Oh, I think it will.
Wow, you’ve gotta be kidding.
I think Carl enjoys a rather large amount of mind altering drugs, but this is still fun to see.
Thanks for confirming my suspicions.
Please come aboard here sir.
Pauline...is that you, back from the dead on Halloween?
(I know, I know, the story's apocryphal, and her quote misconstrued.)
What odds to you give McCain?
There ain't no way Michigan, with corrupt Wayne County always the last to report, is going to break for McCain. It didn't in 2000, it didn't in 2004, and it sure won't for Zero.
If we could cede Detroit to Canada, then yes, Michigan would break big time for McCain. BTW, Detroit is built over ancient salt domes, so if you need a grain to go with these polls, you know where to get it!
I can’t find the story right now, but I’ve seen reports that Obama is only getting 55% of Hillary supporters.
She had 18 million votes, so that leaves about 8 million up for McCain or Nader.
One thing I think some people miss is that these votes actually count double. What I mean is lets say you have 200 voters total.
105 to Democrat (52%)
95 to Republican (48%)
With the Pumas factored in:
97 Democrat (48.5%) (105-8)
103 Republican (51.5%)(95+8)
So Obama LOOSES 8 million, while McCain GAINS 8 million, or a 16 million vote swing.
The Ann Arbor News is the most liberal newspaper in the state, they refused to endorse Obummer!
If Obummer wins in MI it will be by a damn close margin.
This "poll" is bogus BUT ...
....if you are looking for a snippet of positive news from Colorado, I voted early on Wednesday, it was very very crowded, a 90-minute wait despite high efficiency from the poll workers, and while I saw many many old gray-haireds, I saw only a handful of young people (and some of those were in uniform!).
