A six point one day shift in a 3-day rolling poll????

My heart wants desperately to believe this, but my head knows it can't be right.

Today's Gallup poll is now matching many of the newspaper polls we have been seeing the past few days. This truly makes yesterday's ABC poll an outlier. You also have to wonder how Rasmussen got Obama +3.

+2 for McCain and -1 for Obama from yesterday (through Tuesday). I like the trend.

People would like to blame the Republicans for the financial crisis, but it’s hard not to observe that McCain is capable of real leadership, and Obama is not.

I am a little concerned though that the deal being reached already means he will look like a fool for suspending his campaign.

What does everyone else think?

I guess the economy crisis is not hurting McCain. Honestly, never thought it would.

I don't care if this sounds tiring to some here, but I kinda made a promise to myself that I will NOT rely on poll numbers because they can be so decieving, even when we are up in the polls. Things can change in a twinkling of an eye!!

I will be posting what I said from an earlier post yesterday every time I see polls posted ..... “Just came for Drudge and he has a picture of the smug black messiah holding up a fist symbolizing black power used by the black panthers! I still don't believe the polls, NO WAY, NO HOW....I’m getting a little nervous but GOD will help us win this battle. The Tsunami of evil spewed by the RATS and their accomplices is beyond anything I have EVER witnessed. I serve a God who deals with the impossible, I serve a MIGHTY God who deals severely with evil doers and has the power to change things. I serve a God who listens to the cries of his people. I serve a KING who has the power to turn the hearts of people to do the right thing. I serve a MASTER who turns situations around... what satan meant for evil HE will turn it around for good. I have to believe I serve a MIGHTY GOD! Fix your eyes on Him don’t look at the situation, but put your faith in him. IF ever we needed Him most it’s now. Call upon him and he will answer. I’m NOT willing to surrender my COUNTRY over to Satan’s cronies yet! The SPIRITUAL fight has just began. Please, I implore you, FAST AND PRAY. This is the only way we can defeat the demons and their plans. Do not fear for God is with us. PLEASE, PLEASE..God Doesn't need an army of millions but a handful of faithful believers who are willing to take a stand in the middle of the Storm by faith believing without wavering that God can do all things! Even this to turn an election to favor McPAL! Join me with prayer and fasting.”

Wow, if he got 3 points overnight on a 3-day tracking poll(?), that must mean he actually got several points. Either McCain or his advisors are brilliant.

One employee shows up for work, the other one doesn’t....the bosses notice.

Personally i thought McCain coming back was no big deal, until NO-bama said “no” to showing up for work.

This up and down polling is a symptom of the boob American public's mental derangement

McCain should be a constant 20% higher than Obama

There are always 3 or 4 Freepers who claim that Gallup Polls are “in the tank” for Obama.

Where are these people now? Cat got your tongue?

IGNORE THE POLLS!
McCAIN IS DOWN BY 10 POINTS...AND NEEDS YOUR HELP IN GETTING OUT THE VOTE!

That is how you need to view EVERY DAY between now and November 4. There are a multitude of ways you can help erase the ten point deficit. Give money to the RNC. Go to your local Republican office and offer to make phone calls, or walk your OWN precinct hanging door flyers. Put a sign in your yard. Make phone calls from home for the campaign. Stand on a street corner with a McCain/Palin sign.

Get the picture? We can sit on our asses with our keyboards frantically searching for "more good poll news", which will make us happy or sad. Or we can get involved pushing our party and our candidate.

I am not a huge fan of McCain, but he energized me with his VEEP pick. I am also increasingly sickened by the sight of Hussein...the thought of having to see him and the sycophantic media sucking up to him for four years gives me motivation to work against his election.

Now, let's pretend McCain is way down in the polls, and the only way we can win is to volunteer. Let's do it.

Relying on polls will give us false confidence or false despair!! Do not let them determine your attitude!

I believe all of this is attributable to his move to suspend the campaign and go back to work. Like I said yesterday when I first saw this, it was a move born of pure genius. It perfectly ties in with his campaign pledge of putting “Country First”.

Rick Davis has called for a series of Hail Mary passes in the 4th quarter of the game and scored a TD on each of them.

Some this could be a result of Biden’s gaffes.

Particularly the coal subject.

I’m getting whiplash from these damn polls. They’re still not as frustrating as the ones for college football.

There have been some goofy-ass polls lately.

McCain surging here, Obama surging in the state polls on Rass...very weird.
