I am not defending RCP because it is a mess [such as Arizona going to toss up].

Nonetheless, the polls are moving strong for McCain on key states such as Virginia and Ohio.

I wonder when Nevada and PA will change color again? This has been all over the map for months now. Bottom line, they do not know. No one will know until votes are counted.

Go and vote folks!

The Kos kids are going to be curled up in the fetal position in their moms basement at this rate. LOL.

Translation: they will go McCain.

Obama’s just hoping the clock runs out at this point.

The Kos and DU mentally ill people will just harass RCP like they did with Battleground and apparently Zogby, until they get RCP to change it back.

Prevent defense is a good strategy if you're up by 10+. If you're stuck at 47%, not so good. You need to take risks to bump the number up.

You got that right. This thing may end up with McCain at 309.

All RCP does is average polls together. Doesn’t matter if the poll was released by Mason Dixon or a local college poll conducted by a drugged out poly-sci professor.

This map is a real cluster.

Mr. Obama voted against the surge. The surge is working, my friends.

I wonder if Daily Kos is attacking their own pollster now. He has 0’s lead down to 4 in last night’s poll. If he gets it any closer, he better have been paid in advance...

Yup. Just running the ball three times and punting won’t do.

And now they have the messiah’s projected EV’s getting dangerously close to dropping below the 270 mark.

Here is the latest info on internals for polls in Nevada:

SAMPLE FIGURES

Men 309 (49%)
Women 316 (51%)
Democrats 281 (45%)
Republicans 239 (38%)
Independents 105 (17%)

I don’t think those democrat and independent numbers make much sense. This poll produces an Obama lead of +4.

I think if you get this poll even close to accurate, you have McCain winning Nevada.

You’ve got to be kidding me....they’re showing GEORGIA as a toss up? First of all, that is not true, and secondly, why haven’t we seen that before?

OH and VA were never going Fauxbama folks. NONE of the eastern states will flip for Fauxbama, IA and the westerns perhaps, but none of the states east of IA are going to flip for Fauxbama.

IA though may be coming around that Fauxbama isn’t worth the risk just to keep corn/ethanol subsidies.

NH most likely will go McCain and PA definately will, and I still stand by the fact that Fauxbama’s fundamental problems in PA exist in the other rust belt states and Fauxbama will drop at least 1 more rust belt state.

ONly a few more hours and this is all behind us one way or another... Fight hard, stay motivated, GOTV.

Heck that male/female split seems odd as well.
