Florida may be falling from Obama's grasp

I hope that’s true, because from what i have observed first hand here in Tampa, McCain’s organization is pretty well, ..disorganized..

You shouldn’t make fun of old people in your ads, Obama.

Sarah Palin is worth a 10 point gain in all battleground states. Even California is showing approval for her nomination.

Obama said: "Our job is to stay focused and continue building the largest and most comprehensive campaign organization Florida has ever had. Compared to what McCain has on the ground at this point, our operation is far superior."

ROTFLOL---sounds like Obama's got ahold of Giuliani's campaign routine.

Seems Rooty' strategy was to "save himself" for Florida figuring he'd make a big splash there, flying in a "powerhouse" of his American supporters from Israel to vote for him.

Actually the dolt campaigned in (and lost) every early primary/caucus state. Giuliani campaigned in Florida 61 days straight and came in a distant third.

When he dropped out, he'd spent $60 million and won 1/2 delegate (he shared the one delegate he won).

Rooty's "save myself for Flordia" strategy is now in the history books as the studpidest in US campaign history.

I think I read on FR a few days ago that the (mostly retired) Jewish community in Florida is not happy about Obama’s Muslim/anti-Israel roots.

Being nervous a bit is not a problem, it is a part of our human nature :)

Real Clear Politics seems to show Michigan very competitive, and it is possible that McCain might get Iowa, Wisconsin, and Minnesota, as well, as Obama continues his gaffes...

I can't see Colorado and New Mexico going for Obama.

Finally, Obama's lead in the state of Washington is only 2 points by one poll. Of course with King County dirty tricks, Obama might pull out the state of Washington...

Changing demographics. Influx of illegals that could very well be voting in a few years.

McCain needs to hire Dick Morris as a Consultant...he has a demographic insight that can push MCCain and Palin over the top!!

That's an interesting animation. I can't believe so many Americans support Obama. He's no ordinary socialist like the Dems usually nominate - he's a thuggish communist who is running hard away from his church, his old friends and backers, and his hidden records. I hope they figure out who this guy is before he lands in the White House.

Freeper ETL has an excellent resource to help educate those who are not looking past the smooth (when the 'prompter is working) speeches.

Thank goodness. Giuliani is the one person the GOP could have nominated in order to lose my (FL) vote. No gungrabbers. McCain is my second-least-favorite among the R contenders, and I have lots of problems with McCain, but I'm voting against Obama.

Any poll or map that shows ND going for Obama is just plain bunkum. President Bush took ND in 2004 with (if I recall correctly) something like 80%. A popular Republican governor who handily won his last re-election, and a very popular former governor (Ed Schafer) now serving as Secretary of Agriculte, mean that ND is NOT trending towards The FAKE Chosen One.

Whatever happened to Iowa, that used to be such a conservative state?
