ZOGBY SATURDAY: McCain outpolled Obama 48% to 47% in Friday poll. He is beginning to cut into Obama's lead among independents, is now leading among blue collar voters, has strengthened his lead among investors and among men, and is walloping Obama among NASCAR voters. Joe the Plumber may get his license after all...

I especially do not want to hear the name OBAMA again!!! Just remember us IL Freepers who'll have to put up with the SOB another couple of years as a senator. But we'll gladly take one for the team.

He'll probably be bored with being a Senator by the end of his term! He has never stayed in a job more than 2 yrs!

If McCain pulls this thing off. Sarah will be the first VP candidate since 1960 to carry the #1 on the ticket to victory. The media wants you to think she is a mistake. But the reality is, she may be the most charismatic most gifted politician of our time. She is amazing.

Looks like the Obama infomercial didn’t get a ‘bounce’.. instead maybe a backlash.

Yup. This is the last chance for the pollsters to get it right.

Obama must be out of ad money. The pollster whole go was to get Obama and McCain to spend as much ad money as possible.

The only pollsters noy playing that game were BattleGround and TIPP/IBD because they do not co-brand their polls with a MSM company like NBC/Gallup or CNN/Zogby something like that.

Clinton was a moderate I voted for him in 1992. I figured that he wouldn't harm the country much. But because of his disastrous left wing lurch in his first year in office, we got the Contract With America and the first GOP House majority in 50 years. The difference is we can't afford Obama.

I visited for a conference once...on the Magic Mile...in Autumn...it was beautiful....always told my husband we should go back.....that was about 12 years ago...now, I’m not sure I would return for a visit. Isn’t it Oprah’s base too?

I’ve wondered why McCain hasn’t run some ads on that theme that Obama is a job hopper and most companies in America would have a hard time hiring him because of job stability...

I think you’re closer to hitting on the head then you might think. Zogby is crap, I agree, in fact all polls mostly are, but Zogby is also a BUSINESSMAN first and foremost. He likely has been trying to steer this the way he or his employers want it up to this point, but I guarantee somewhere in the fine print there’s a clause that states, “in the last 4 days of any election we get to call it as it is in order to insure future business as a reputable pollster”. Now I don’t think even getting the call right will insure that after this campaign, but he still can’t afford to be that far off...

You think this poll might be a hoax?

You didn't ask me but I'll jump in to say, No. This poll is not a hoax.

Zogby has known for a while now that Zero is going to lose. In order to salvage whatever he can of his own credibility, Zogby has to build a story that the independents and undecideds broke for McCain in the last few days before the election. So, he's allowed McCain to creep ahead by a measly 1% today. Zogby will soon be reporting that the 3 day average for his polling shows McCain in the lead. Not coincidentally this will be just in time for election day.

Dick Morris is a genius. I might never doubt the guy again. Everything that’s happened in October, he predicted.

No doubt the precipitous drop in gasoline prices are helping McCain.

Dare I say it? RYMB!

Two points:

Rich Fernandez (Belmont Club) has a post tonight called “Cassandra” in which the lead is “if Obama loses...” Jane Fonda has much to say about that. The Left is really nervous.

The Wright commercial is airing this weekend on the GOPTruth.com PAC with a $6 mil buy according to Morris on Bill O’Reilly. That commercial is powerful and is the “siege guns” we thought would come out.

McCain may have anticipated the “end game” as crucial. Barry has never had to face an opponent, I believe. They all withdrew before the contest was totally finalized. The prol’lem is, this “opponent guy” spent 5 years in the Hanoi Hilton...

;-o)
