Thank God the stock mkt did well last week.


The market did well and is an indicator that a McCain/Palin win is in the offing. The Wall Street players see the Obama machine has sand in it’s gears and no amount of oil ($$$) will help speed it to the train station as the McCain Express overtakes it.

You know it will be good if McCain wins, but then what? We are still facing a RINO as president. We really lose no matter what the outcome.

So .. you're one of those "glass is half-empty" type people?

Sheez! You have TWO choices. Which one do you take? WHICH one DO YOU take?

As the election approaches, Zogby is moving toward reality. So will other pollsters who would like to work other elections.

Obama’s gotten all the gains he’s going to get from skewed polls. The pollsters now will be concerned with their reputations for accuracy.

I would have thought Palin would have REALLY helped with the women demographic..

If Gov. Palin was a plain Jane, she'd do better with women. Since she is attractive, women are envious and are reminded of the "popular girls" in school that always got the attention and all the boys and now they can get even by not supporting her, which is their way of getting even for the past.

I will tell all freepers, as a resident in a left leaning section of Ohio, barring a conspiracy, McCain wins Ohio. Also, being close to PA, I go to Pittsburgh quite frequently, and Western PA is absolutely littered with McCain/Palin signs. I don’t know if it will be enough to offset Phili, but Murtha’s mouth, and the people of PA not wanting anymore taxes (PA’s taxes are crazy), would lead me to not be shocked to see it go (R) on Tuesday.

Don’t lose hope, keep fighting freepers!!!

You didn’t notice that the wait is because there is only 2 voting booths?

No, we get a American Patriot instead of a Muslim, cheese-eating surrender monkey.

Thank you for not being afraid to use that term. Some PoliticallyCorrect morons would shy away from it because of the word “monkey”. I suspect millions of Americans are sick and tired of the victim class in this country and will speak this Tuesday...

Yes, but you have to presume the two booths is because the people in this particular district didn't bother to vote in the past.

If true that African Americans are super motivated, and who doubts that, it will be that much harder for McCain to get enough cross over votes to win.

Don't want to be a wet blanket, but you gotta keep an open mind on what's going on.

On the other hand, I've talked with numerous people in my neighborhood who, in the past, didn't bother to vote.

This year they are motived, and supporting McCain for the most part... with a few exceptions, of course.

And I live in a lower-to-middle class township which has a slight Democrat registration edge.

Well yea, we have to assume that African-Americans (too bad they can never see themselves as simply Americans, but I digress) are HIGHLY motivated. We need to assume that Obama will get a minimum of 100% of the black vote; more likely 130%, but I digress.

We've always known that the black vote was going to Obama. We need to get the PUMA's (thank you PUMA's, especially my mom!), and the Reagan Democrats. McCain is doing an outstanding job attracting both of these groups.

Just make sure YOU vote and call a few people you know and ask them to vote. Former Hillary supporters are a KEY target.

God bless you.

If McCain actually pulls out a 4th quarter comeback, it will be all due to “Joe the Plumber” who gave us our mojo back!

If you saw Mac’s latest speech in PA this afternoon on Fox, he had the crowd going nuts with his stand up and fight with me conclusion...

He should end all his rallies this way, the crowd always goes wild. We all want to stand up and fight. When McCain ends his speeches like this it is really a feel good moment. Makes people feel VERY optimistic.

Yes, it is and PA is a must win state for McCain. He has to do well in all the battleground states anyway. But Obama can't recover from losing PA's 21 votes.

Remember, PA is the only battleground state that Kerry won over Bush.

A loss there will evidence the paper-thin rhetoric of Obama, that will play out in OH and FL and VA too. PA is the key to dropping Obama's house of cards.

Well...we will see, normally the Dhimmis have a stranglehold on single women, if Gov Palin can move there number even 2%, it will make a clear difference on Tuesday, I find it impossible to believe that she is not worth at least 2%.

He came out very different today sadly. Thankfully John is not known for his, how shall we put this, accuracy. Still it would be better to have done better.

“UTICA, New York — After a strong day of polling for Republican presidential candidate John McCain on Friday, Democrat Barack Obama experienced a strong single day of polling on Saturday, retaining a 5.7 point advantage that is right at the edge of the margin of error of the Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby daily tracking poll. The race has remained remarkably stable down the stretch, this three-day rolling average poll shows.”
