No, he shouldnt be, but the MSM is going ape $hit at the thought of him losing. Just look at the AP story about Palin’s email this morning. Not only are they manufacturing a scandal out of it to destroy her, they wont even cooperate with the secret service.
I saw that skit, and SNL made Palin look completely stupid, while the Hillary character was just running off Dem talking points. Unbelievable. I am FED UP with every candidate in our party being portrayed as an unintelligent, ignorant idiot. FED UP!!!
I'm optimistic, but still think Obama has the advantage. Palin has Obamaâs minions foaming at the mouth, and I think they will have a much more competent, if not overzealous, get-out-the-vote organization than Kerry did. I say this because Obama’s followers seem willing to do anything to get their demigod elected. I expect the numbers to remain very very close, with no visible advantage. Hopefully, I'm totally wrong and McCain opens up a substantial lead.
I’m very cynical about us getting any bounce from the convention. I think our convention has been ruined, unfortunatel. Even though the convention is resuming in full today, the media will being going out of its way to focus all week on Gustav’s clean up efforts, the upcoming storm, etc.. Expect much less than 25% of the viewers that watched the RAT convention.
