Actually, there is usually a rally towards the incumbent a couple of weeks out before the election as he locks down all the votes he is getting. Then, the remaining undecideds break for the challenger.

This year is a little different, because any time the country is attacked (by others or by the weather), there is a rallying to the incumbents. So, I am not surprised to see this.

The huge questions is, will the storm allow Obama to keep these voters who have temporarily gravitated towards him (in which case the election will be unbelievably close), or will we see the typical pattern where late deciders break heavily for the challenger (in which Romney wins comfortably as the President remains mired at 47 - 48%)?

I honestly don’t know. Could go either way, but I would sure rather be in Romney’s spot right now than the President’s.

But how the hurricane impacts the election.... Who knows

The hurricane shut down early voting for at least two days from Virginia through the north.

Since early voting is the biggest voter fraud base for the Dems this just may help us quite a bit.

New Yorkers and New Jersey folks without power for a week?

That’s not going to bode well for Obama... spoiled libs will be screaming by next week over power outages.

I wouldn't generalize so much and lump everyone together. There are in both states plenty of people who aren't liberals.

“Not only that, if the polls get lopsided at any time, then the ad sales will just dry up completely, right???”

You are correct there.

Also, the rats what the poll to be close or lopsided for their side.

That cloaks their illegal voting activities.

Then, if they lose, they can call in their millions of lawyers to protest our wins.

This is all on script for the pollsters and MSM. By next Tuesday the meme, will be OBama got his base back, he surged, race is now his to lose..even “Obama will probably narrowly be reelected”. Even some pollsters folks here love to fellate like Fatty Rassmussen. The scandal will be the next days after election day when pollsters have to answer on why they got it so wrong. How they all showed states like Ohio close and Romney winning it by 3%+

This morning’s news is full of problems... complaining and looting. obama has done nothing to stop the death and destruction... and now he can’t get the lights on, subways running and businesses are being raped and destroyed. He had no contingency to protect these open businesses (as in blown open) last night and unarmed owners have no power to repel the demons that come to strip the shelves. Oh yea... obama has done a FANTASTIC job... almost as good as he performed with Benghazi!
