CAVEAT: I could be full of macaca. On Wednesday, if I’m wrong, the macaca thread starts here. I expect no fewer than 500 posts.

What is your prediction of McCain’s home state?

Obama Fear Factor is strong. We do not even know if he was born in this country!

AMEN!

Colorado stats haven’t improved much for Zero. He still has to pull an inside straight to win CO. He is underperforming his party ID by 2-3 points even in polls. In CO he is even to +1.5% in the early vote. The GOTV machine in CO will blow his ass out of the water. Great analysis though.

Also, I read that Zogby actually splits his polling day to include the daytime and the previous evening. So his +1 McCain lead includes the evening of Oct 30th and then the day of Oct 31st. He may yet see Halloween effect, but we'll see.

Best of all for you, I agree!

Let's see where Obama is today in NV and CO. If he has those states locked up, why has he put in an appearance? Barry's no landslide winner. Look at Sarah Palin's rally numbers in PA and contrast them with whom Joe Biden attracted: I don't think there's a doubt McCain will win the Keystone State. McCain will carry NC and VA comfortably and win NH flipping that for NM - which Obama hasn't visited because his numbers tell him its a lock. Obama's going to visit OH again tomorrow - not a lock. Safe for McCain as is FL. There could be surprise GOP pickups of WI and MN during the night. MI is not in the cards on account of Detroit but Macomb and Oakland counties - Reagan Democrat territory will keep Obama's victory margin within 2%. So let's review briefly: McCain is doing good in Red States and Obama is struggling just to be competitive in battleground states. That's the story of Election 2008.

McCain was my least favorite candidate. I commented that I'd have to buy clothes pins to put on my nose when I voted for him in this presidential election. I voted for my favorite candidate in the primary and it wasn't McCain. My pick had stepped aside and was supporting McCain and was still on the Texas ballot so I voted for him.

Thanks to Sarah Palin I have become excited and will need NO clothes pins when I vote for the McCain/Palin Ticket. The horror of BHO has even made me kinda forget why I didn't like McCain. ;o) [I hope when he takes over as President...he doesn't soon make me remember why I always pretty much disliked him...I'm even working for the McCain campaign...wonders never cease.]

Thanks, hope you’re right, agree about McCain.

When asked, I say that I could argue forcefully for either conclusion, but I’m thinking (and praying!) that McCain will pull it out.

Not that I’m enthusiastic about a McCain presidency, but that I am VERY enthusiastic about a NOT-OBAMA presidency.

Then, as I told my 13yo, I pray Obama is genuinely converted to Christ, gets some real Biblical discipling, gets a Biblical worldview, changes his life, racks up some real and good accomplishments, and runs and wins another time.

If I had to guess, I'd say McCain wins NH, loses PA by razor thin margins

Amazing. I posted earlier we'd have to cross our fingers for PA only to get called names and cussed a blue streak for stepping out of line.

I just told a pollster I was an 25 year old Black Female Democrat who voted for Kerry in 2004 and will be voting for McCain this year.

None of that is true except the female and voting for McCain.

I wonder how many other people fool with pollsters this way?

the McCain team said their polling showed that Obama lost ground with the infomercial.


That’s my sense of it.

The last time Obamarama went grandioise with the fairy dust and styrofoam, his numbers tanked.

Couldn’t time it any better than this. Obama-fatigue is real.

Make sure it happens! One final push to save the U.S.A.!

The challenge:

Between NOW and election day, convince at least two Obama/Undecided voters to vote for McCain. Further, convince these two people (or two others) to take up the same challenge. (Like a chain letter)

So you have converted people in the past? Good, but we need more!

Many Obama supporters are mindlessly supporting him, with no real reason, this means it is VERY easy to get them to switch over. Even if you fail, other Obama/undecideds may be in the room and hear valid arguments and question their faith in the One.

Do your part...your country depends on it!

A few thoughts related to the infomercial:

The infomercial was conceived a month ago during the heart of the Bail Out market crash and panic. It seemed to make sense back then, when everyone was in a state of shock. A half hour of “I feel your pain” and “Here's precise steps I will take to ease it” would have been strong. BUT... things changed. A whole month later, the stock market had just rallied up over 900 points, for the second best up day in history, and people were starting to see things stabilize. Gasoline was dipping under $2. Also, McCain and Sarah Palin made great strides, with Joe the Plumber's help, of ripping back the kitchen table economic issues from Obama. Plus the infomercial had too much “It's all about me and my special powers, I'm your savior” tone. That turns off most Americans, especially when some junior who's never done anything, claims all of that.
