Vanity: McCain Ahead by 1 Point Among Likely Voters

FOXNews Channel ^ | November 2, 2008

Neal Cavuto on Cavuto's World just announced a poll that's come out on likely voters in which McCain leads by one point. Cavuto didn't say the name of the poll.

You’re welcome.

There is still time for those swing staters to make a difference. PRINT a sign like “OBAMA IS TO RADICAL” and glue them to the posts at b usy intersections and along busy roads. Elmers Glue is DIRT CHEAP at Target, Wal Mart, etc.

I am surprised Pew stopped polling now when McCain made up 9% in a few days over their last poll. Either they know their last poll was a total fraud, or they want a couple days of no polling to use a “late McCain surge” as an excuse for being wrong.

PEW “final” poll says Obama 49-42 among likely voters, and 52-46 with leaners included.

But that ISN’T the real news here.

Just 5 days ago, their poll said Obama 53-38 among likely voters.

Including PEW’s usually rancid Democrat oversample, McCain has gained 7 points in the last 5 days. (Through yesterday.)

Regardless of the lead they assert, this confirms that McCain is closing ground...fast.

[Mitt Romney]

It was live. He was talking about a Pew poll of voters who plan to vote on election day. This has already been confirmed by others.

Well come wednesday morning it appears that some pollsters are gonna have some ‘splanin to do. Some of these guys have Obama up by 10 and now this guy has McCain up by one.

Good job Boiling Pots.:)Do you get any response from them?

[Boiling Pots]

Yes, I do. Mostly positive. Lots of thumbs up, honks, “Go McCain” screams out their windows..I have heard my share from the 0bama cultists and its mostly screaming “Obama” in a very ignorant fashion. Although 2 people have taken my picture and threatened to “report me.”

[fatima]

My husband bought a McCain Palin sign down the shore.They were selling pink signs for 4.00.While he was shopping and carrying the sign the strangest thing happen.People were coming up to him shaking his hand.I'm glad you are getting positive.

[Boiling Pots]

Ive been as positive as I can for a while, I have been fighting, and there is plenty of time to still fight. Keep going, talk to people, make sure your friends and fam (who would vote mccain) get to the polls.

I saw MOST of the show tonight and I did not pick it up at all. Not saying it did not happen.

The IBD/TIPP poll has Obama up by 2.1 with likely, perhaps that is the confusion?

8 polls out by Mason Dixon are giving Barry heart burn I am sure.

[FreedBird]

Where are all the people who support Obama? Most people we know are voting for McCain. Maybe the MSM and Democrat pollsters are trying to discourage us from voting for McCain, knowing if we do vote McCain will win.

We are going to see on Tues. if these Obama supporters exist in numbers we have been hearing about.

My guess is that they are nothing but smoke and mirrors and McCain is going to win big.

[fatima]

Gosh how great is that.((((Hugs))))

[fatima]

This whole thing is very strange.How can they do a poll when 80 percent of the people hangup.We will find out very shortly but I know what I see and most are for McCain.

[FreedBird]

The entire tee vee Media is behind Obama now. Something is really crazy about this. We have not even voted. Are people this desperate to vote for Obama? Something doesn’t smell right about all of this.

[FreedBird]

It will be interesting to see if all these newspapers and MSM are going to pick the President or we are going to pick the President. The MSM has ruined this country!

I checked my e-mail account after reading this post to see if the McCain campaign or any of his supporters had sent me any updates. From Our Country Deserves Better, I received the following message that identifies the poll that you referenced:

The latest IBD/TIPP poll has been released today - and it has John McCain statistically tied with Barack Obama! And Neal Cavuto has just reported that the PEW poll has McCain ahead by 1% among likely voters!

This comes on the heels of yesterday’s Zogby one-day tracking poll which had McCain ahead of Obama by 1%.

This race is extraordinarily close, with a large number of undecided voters that will likely break for McCain. Help us make a strong final push with our last advertising blitz through Tuesday.

There are no more tomorrows - we must act now. We’re trying to raise $150,000 for this final push on the TV airwaves. Please make a contribution of anywhere from $5 to $5,000 for our final ad blitz to defeat Barack Obama. You can donate online.

Let’s get this done!!!

[FreedBird]

The grassroots of the country seem to be for McCain. The MSM wants Obama. Sounds like if McCain loses, lots of people are going to be angry and upset.

[fatima]

Well I stopped watching the news shows.It only gets me in a bad mood.I talk to the people and ask them who they like.I vote pro-life.Most are voting McCain except for the blacks and 4 woman but 2 of the woman are beginning to have doubts about Obama.I have met many PUMA'S who are mad and voting against Obama.
