McCain keeps inching up in the polling.

Plus, I'm hearing about the Bradley effect first-hand ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bradley_effect )

My son is a college student- a young conservative in a den of libs. Many of his classmates talked and talked about supporting Obama. Plus, they're being force-fed early voting (one prof is offering a 10-point bump on midterms for everyone that does) Many of his Barry-O supporting friends are confessing to not being able to pull the trigger on Obama and are casting their ballots for McCain.

There is hope, my friends, there is hope.

I actually still have faith that those of us that have enough gumption to go to work everyday are also the only ones that are going to have the gumption to go to the polls anyway.
Aside of course from those that are getting bussed in and given a free lunch to pull the lever...

Hopefully I will be one hell of a party in KW. We should invite John and Sarah.

As I have stated many times in the past, I live in a very blue area in rural Ohio. Farmers, blue collar workers, and small business owners. Theese people have had old school democrat thinking beat into their heads for generations. My daddy's daddy's daddy was a democrat so thats how I roll, as much as I hate to admit it, my own parents fall into this catagory. Well last night Dad and I got into a very loong heated argument about old school vs. modern day political parties in the cab of a Mack truck on a 5 hour haul. I managed to convince a 65 year old man to vote for a Republican president for the first time in his life while we were inside a fuel refinerey. THERE IS HOPE! :D

Chris, the stuff that's going on the universities and even in the High Schools, Middleschools and even grade schools is crazy. A few friends and co-workers have kids in various grades and some of the anti-McCain/Pro-Obama info they're coming home with from the teachers is mind boggling..... :(

Nice work man!!
I know, I spoke to my folks last weekend, and they are from that same generation. Dad is looking to retire in the next 9 mos.
He's looking out for HIM and Mom - Obama is going to give them what they want in the short term. But in the long term, it's gonna screw you and me, and their granddaughter...
I'm not sure if I got the point across or not.

Reagan was behind Carter by 12 "polling" point with 4 weeks until election...

In speaking to a political operative bud last night - he all but guarantees a McCain victory and was willing to bet a case of wine with anybody.

Somebody told my that Obama's camp went to an Alzheimers clinic and loaded the bus up, took them to vote and they all got off the bus with Obama pins. Where's the conscience? Acorn at its worst.

fingers crossed...

You would hope that Americans in general would have noticed what 12 years of socialist(liberal) rule did to my country and that would be enough to wake up the bama supporters.

Canada finally woke up and elected the right ( pun intended ) government, albeit a minority government but at least its a step in the right ( pun intended ) direction.

If, with all the power the left already has in your government, bama wins.....you're screwed.

Youve grossly over-estimated the "average" American. By our own doing, our "average" citizen isn't too bright and isn't too motivated. Our top third carries 95% of the water.

That would explain the guys I met in South Carolina in August one year. They saw my Ontario plates and told me they were headed to "Canada" to go skiing. I asked them if they meant water skiing. They said, "no, snow skiing in Quebec". I wished them good luck.

And our top 5% pays 50% of all the taxes, wonder why Obambi wants to go after them???

Because, according to him, they can afford it.

In reality, they probably can. But to further that reality, they can also afford to pay $35 for a McDonald's cheeseburger. But they won't. They'll find alternatives.

The "leftist" Canadain National Broadcasting Corp ran a commercial last night. It stated that they would have live coverage from Washington and the Obama head quarters to follow the "VICTORY". How's that for media bias?

Tony

Im curious to see how many states will have to do a re count, extend poll hours, so on and so forth. And just how long do you think the investigation will take if McCain looses?

No offense, but why does (should) Canada give two chits about who gets elected as our president?

Are you kidding? We have the longest unprotected border in the world. The USA is out largest by far trading partner. Your market sneezes and ours catches a cold. Obama threatens to renegotiate trade deals at whim.

Why would we care? Pretty obvious I think.

I have this gut feeling JM is going to win...not by a landslide but will win this election. Although the Bradley Effect is from a different era I do think it might be enough to push JM into office. Polls are a waste of time....what matters is what lever you push when at the voting machine and I think JM will have that vote.

YUP...you know this will be a MAJOR RACE issue if JM beats Obama.....millions will be spent on investigations, hearings etc. I am sure J.Jackson and FAT ASS SHARPTON are gearing up already to whip up a frenzy in the Black Communities if Obama looses. If Obama does win he wont last long ....... know what I mean :rant:

If Obama wins, I don't know what to say other than I'll have to figure out how to deal with the next 4 years and it will only strengthen the need to get him out of office and replace him ....if not "before" the next election.. ;)

I flipped on MSNBC to see what kind of BS they were peddling this morning.... Yup, they are talking about the election like it's over and Monday morning quaterbacking.... If McCain wins I can't wait to flip on the TV and see them eat their words....

If Obama wins, I wonder if they'll continue the investigations into his citizenship, relationships etc. or will it just go away??? Lots of unsanswered questions for a dude that can ptentially become the next president...WTF..:leaving:

I'm predicting that it'll be quite-a-while after the election until all of the dust settles(re-counts, court motions, etc.): the closer the popular vote count, the worse it will be.
