Don't forget the Dem and MSM tricks!

Remember the Panhandle Scandal.

Remember how the MSM calls dem states early but holds off on pubbie wins.

Remember how states get called for dems that turn out to be pubbie wins. They will stop at nothing to trick you and yours to not vote.

Ok I’ll point out the obvious. If only 48% votes for Fauxbama, and 47% McCain, then 5% voted independent, or 2 to 5% refused to admit they voted for McCain. Thus he’s ahead.

Key quotes from the article on internals:

Looking at the preferences among key groups, the most important has to be independents and Obama has a slim 43 percent-38 percent advantage.

This leaves 19% of indies undecided. Great news for Mac.

Party loyalty is fairly balanced. Obama receives the backing of 89 percent of Democrats and McCain has 88 percent of Republicans.

Hmmm. Neither candidate has a crossover edge. If 25% of voters are indies, BHO's 5 point indie lead translates into a 1 -2 point overall lead. The only way to get to a 7 point BHO lead is to heavily overweight Dems.

So, another poll using secreat sauce to prop up BHO.

"Early Voting in the 2000 and 2004 Presidential Elections "

Summary please. This is a 31-page paper! Do Dems vote more than Repubs in early voting? By how much historically?

Don’t they have a saying, “Vote early, vote often”?

Among men, Obama leads by 50-43 percent. Bush won men by 11 points in both 2000 and 2004. And while McCain is favored among white men by 5 points, that is a much narrower margin than Bush's 25-point win among this group in 2004.

This is just plain nuts. There is no way that McCain is only winning among white men by 5 points. Down from Bush's 25 points? Nonsense.

If this is true, Cindy can start measuring the drapes and Todd can start figuring out where to hang those mooseheads on the walls at Blair House.

You're right on both counts. Exit polling isn't always very reliable. And, repubs typically are underrepresented in exit polls (just like they have been underrepresented in all the major polls this year).

Wait you must be lying to me. I have been watching Fox and they keep saying that he doesn’t have a prayer - well he has a 90/10 chance of winning.

Exactly! Hannity is now giving Rasmussen’s numbers for states. Why has he swallowed the koolaid of Rasmussen? Now telling everyone to ignore the polling. That is too funny!

Dems need to be a lot ahead right now and they are not.

Think your prediction is going to hold and may grow! :)

I was just reminding a Chicken Little on another thread about the Dem turnout margins. Remember, all the pollsters and pundits have been insisting Dems will have a HUGE advantage this election. Yet turnout percentage has been remarkably stable since the Reagan revolution.

Turnout percentage was dead even in 2004, and in every Presidential race before that (back to 1984) it ranged from +2 to +4 for the Dems.

Do you know what the margin was in 1980? +15 for the Dems. Poll after poll showed the race as too close to call, yet Reagan won 51-41% and took over 40 states.

I just got my Knights of Columbus monthly magazine Columbia -- the December edition.

The cover has a baby (really cute, sleeping and peaceful baby).

Under the baby (wrapped in a nice warm, secure blanket) is the title:

A People of Life and For Life

Underneath, in a slightly smaller font is:

Vote Pro-Life.

Archbishop Chaput has an article about Faithful Citizenship in the Magazine, which is an excerpt from his book.

On the back of the magazine, on the left side of my address is a note to remember that November 4 is an Election Day. Don't forget to vote.

This was received today, and because of how the USPS operates, I imagine most Knights of Columbus will receive it today.

This is probably worth 40,000+ votes for pro-life candidates, including McCain, and will definitely hurt Obama, since Catholics do know where each stands...

Of course, forty thousand is the low number. A high number might be more than million... But who knows...

See Comment #77.

The Catholic Magazine Columbia is being received by millions of Catholics (members of the Knights of Columbus.

It reminds them to vote pro-life. We all know what that means.

That normally voting Republican and having to reject the Democrat because abortion is okay

The cover has a baby -- so the message is clear...

Opinion Dynamics Corp. conducted the national telephone poll of 971 likely voters for FOX News from November 1 to November 2.

This doesn't mean much. Assuming that about 10% of the public has now voted, the Obama / McCain split is coming from a sub-group of fewer than 100 people. The margin of error has to be something like 15%.
