Pennsylvania is shaping up to be what Florida was in 2000 and Ohio was in 2008. On the morning drive in, I was tuned into our nationally sydicated talk show which broadcasts from Pittsburgh, PA.
He was reading from GOP internal polls. McCain has actually moved into the lead in Pennsylvania (but still within the margin of error) and was only 1% behind in Michigan. Keep working and don't give up!

FL numbers are what I have been heariang for sometime and what Fred Thompson said it would be in FL several weeks ago.
For the last few days, info coming out of Michigan via the 527 that camped out there after McCain left has been showing the same info that the race in Michigan has closed.
Having talked to union members in Minnesota, it would not surprise me. They are not Obama’s biggest fans and in fact most have had affirmative action shoved right down their throat with unqualified people being promoted because they were black.
If you would have asked me a month ago, I would have told you union members that I would be talking with would have been against Hispanics, but that is not what I am hearing. Looks like some black supervisors have been a wee bit of shoving it with Obama running. (Understatement) Never in my life have I had calls like the last week and I have been calling for GOP candidates for years and years.
There is something brewing across America and it is going to be the votes of the person when he goes in that voting booth tomorrow. If my calls are even halfway on the mark as to how people feel, then it is going to be a very nice evening tomorrow.
Before we start high-fiving over Michigan, how are we doing in Virginia and Colorado? I find it hard to believe we are losing in VA/CO and winning in MI/NJ. This is garbage that will come back to haunt us tomorrow, so we should really not believe this.
All the judges need to go on vacation tomorrow.
If McCain/Palin are competitive in OH, PA, WI, MN and IA, then not being competitive in MI would be the stunner.
I already heard this, but thanks.
I don’t need to hear the GOP internals, its blindingly obvious where PA is heading and that the problems in PA for Fauxbama are the same problems he’s going to have across the rust belt. I am not suprised in the least with MI numbers either. I’ve been saying this for a long time now... Fauxbama is losing PA, and he’s going to lose at least 1 more rust belt.
Fauxbamas campaign has been an absolute joke and insult to this part of the country.. In the rust belt his dog and pony show is 25 years too late. For 30 years we’ve been dealing with a down economy, we’ve already had the slick talkers come through claiming hope and change, and when they’ve gotten elected nothings changed at all, other than the size of the wallets of the person who won and all his friends. The old mill towns are still dead as ever. This crap may fly in cities that have enjoyed high flying and are now seeing a contraction, but it doesn’t play in the rust belt.
Mocking Joe the Plumber? How politically tone deaf if you need the rust belt. We know there are greener pastures, and yet we stay here anyway, and we do it for reasons that folks like Fauxbama who is all about fauxbama can never understand.
Fauxbama is toast nationally, I really doubt he’s topping 45/46 in the popular vote, and would not be remotely suprised if he winds up significantly under that. McCain’s winning this thing, winning it significantly and has been from day one... this entire election cycle has been nothing more than a giant Goebellesque propoganda campaign. Trying their best to get a horrible candidate elected, and the american people are going to throw the biggest collective middle finger to them tommorrow you have ever seen.
You are being lied to, and lied to across the board. This race was never that close folks... Once Palin was on board and the base was solidified there was no doubt that Fauxbama was going to lose and lose big. (relatively speaking) The closest this race ever got was a virtual tie with both candidates in the low to mid 40s, and that was well over a month ago, and was about McCain support slipping, not Fauxbama support gaining.
Stay motivated, fight like we are losing, GOTV. Fight for this country folks.

In these States, you can go right after the threat to people's jobs.
the real story of michigan, or as I call it, the peoples democratik republik of michigan, is that obama is spending tons of money here on ads and polls..I got a poll call last week...that would tell me that michigan is still in play
You are wrongly assuming the average Obama supporter has a jobSince even a McCain blow-out will involve 65 million odd Obama voters, maybe we should consider how bad the economic situation really is.
Survey USA has a poll out this morning saying Minnesota is within the margin of error (O +2)
PA doesn’t have early voting and PA was never a lock for Fauxbama... People that think PA should have been a lock for ANY dem this cycle spend too much time listening to national pundent and have no idea about the state.
Hillary would have likely held the state, but it would be far from a LOCK for any D. Fauxbama never had any chance with PA.. he’s losing it and losing it big.
I'd stay away from Cincinnati with those plates.
Let me guess. Carl, the alleged GOP insider provided them?
some of these judges need remedial law classes.
What polls show that? I would love to believe it, but FR is a great clearing house for sourced material, and that has not been posted.
Where do those numbers come from?
Hamilton, I just hope you are right because you have sounded very confident the last few weeks. I just do not want to set myself up for a HUGE letdown.
Specter, in true RINO fashion, has bought the left’s claim that the Bradley Effect represents covert racism. He’s denying folks in Western PA are racist, which I think is true.
He then, amusingly goes on to describe what actually causes the Bradley Effect, not covert racism, but a reaction to obnoxious in-your-face anti-racism: folks of a non-confrontational nature ‘go along to get along’ or hang up on pollsters when they oppose a black candidate for whatever reason, rather than face the opprobrium of being falsely accused of racism.
I think he is trying to refute what he knows the media will say if McCain wins....that it was racism.
