Indiana was scary looking a few minutes ago, but is tightening fast. Hell, there’s only 1% in.
What I still can’t get over is how someone that hates what this country is can be this close to being president....
With 1% of the vote in in 06, Allen was winning over web by a large margin and we all remember how that turned out.

It’s like this: 25% of Americans really do hate America, and would like nothing better for it to suffer and fail; nothing will dissuade them from their position. 35% of Americans love America and want it to prosper and be successful in everything; they, too, are not dissuadible. That leaves 40%. That 40% are ignorant and apathetic, which pretty much amounts to the same thing. These are the folks who are easily swayed by talking points, sound bites, and lofty rhetoric: They DO NOT make any effort to research the issues, study the facts, etc. Since these are the folks who are influenced primarily by spot emotion, it is no stretch to assume they are the ones who will be emore readily convinced by slick advertising and a smooth talker. I believe 75% of that number would buy into the MSM’s and Obambi’s swill, leaving 10% who do not. That leaves us with 55% for Obambi and 45% for McCain.
That is where we are in America in 2008.
The really sad part is that a sizable portion of the population agrees with him... >
