The majority of today's polls have been very depressing.

The poll wasn't from today.

I know that Coburn has been attacked about a lawsuit filed against him. It's not a current lawsuit, but 'Rats dredged it up anyway.

The national media has really been in Carson's corner lately. Salon.com and DailyKos run attacks against Coburn all the time. Carson is not a "conservative" Democrat like he claims to be he's part of the radical MoveOn.org crowd.

The Senate looks like a modest gain right now, but a lot can change in the next 50-something days. As for the House, not much change outside of Texas.

"The poll wasn't from today."

My mistake - to clarify, the majority of the polls I've seen today have been depressing to me.

What's this story I saw on CNN today about Coburn not sterilizing somebody (I could be wrong, I wasn't paying a lot of attention)?

The CNN mouth acted like it was going to devestate Coburn.

*Yawn* Coburn will get a nice win in November.

Polls go up and down, people, focus on the fundamentals of the race.

People were freaking out about the Burr-Bowles race (oh no, one anonymous source said an internal poll showed him down 18!) but now he's on the air and within 5 points.

I was just trying to cheer you up. How about this:

Gallup Poll: Bush 54%, Kerry 40%, Nader 3%

Are you cheered?

Carson is a Democrat liberal elitist running on a conservative Republican platform. Today, Senator Inhofe said Carson is driving around in an old pickup, wearing western boots he can hardly walk in, trying to fool the voters into believing he thinks like a true Oklahoman. When he is in D.C., he hangs with the far out left.

Well I for one live in Claremore and was having a hard time deciding on who to vote for. Both are great candidates and Brad is a very conservative Democrat in the line with a Republican. But after seeing Brads negative ads that I’m sure are produced by the LIBRAIAL national Democrats I wouldn’t vote for him for the world. He has showed me that his vote is for sale and I’m sad. He’s a great person when he votes his will………….

if you are thinking that Carson is a reasonable conservative alternative to Dr. Tom, ask yourself this questions:


who will Brad Carson vote for Senate leadership? Dashle or Frist?

Case closed. The phony Okie must lose.
