According to many leading conservatives, Obama still has the edge and it is his election to lose. If Palin and McCain do well, don’t lose, in their debates and these numbers hold up, we can have hope. Right now, it is still 50:50 with Obama having the emotional edge.

No matter the age or state of health, for a military man it is always glorious to tilt at windmills, rescue a fair Dulcinea and be a gallant knight in armor in a glorious cause.

Please explain Neiman.  I sit in a must win state (PA) that very well could go McCain in Nov..  ??

I am just curious as to what you mean by Barry’s election to lose.

How does Galop conduct their polls?

I read an interesting article on phone polling.  Most phone polling is done via land lines.  A significant demographic has no land line only cellular and internet.  They don’t have hard data on which side of the aisle this group (estimated to be in the in the 10’s of millions) lands.

Frankly I don’t trust polls. I think demographically they are skewered more toward the blue states...and you definitely never know by what method they get their numbers.

It’s interesting to note that in 1980 the polls had Ronald Reagan tied with President Jimmy Carter. A July 22 Gallup poll had Reagan ahead by 2 points. But by late summer Gallup repeatedly reported a tight race.

Poll wise they missed it by a million miles with Reagan as he won a land-slide victory. I happened to stay up all night watching those numbers come in for him, enjoying the shock-waves hitting the MSM pundits and political analysts who had depended on the Polls for their predictions!

Personally, I think McCain/Palin are going to send shock-waves once again on November 4!

‘All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.’ (Edmund Burke)

Personally, I think McCain/Palin are going to send shock-waves once again on November 4!

So do I Jazzy.  I think the nomination of Palin has thrown such a monkey wrench into the DNC AND the MSM that it will take years for them to regroup.

It is likely the election will be decided by people
who can’t make a choice between the candidates
till they get in the booth.

I really wonder how the vote is going to go down race wise.  I’ve seen numbers showing that blacks are going to vote for obama in the high 90 percentile.  Whites that say the’ll vote for him, then get to the voting booth and rethink things might be interesting.  I don’t really like who we have to vote this time either, “didn’t like the last election at all”, but I’m voting McCain!!

Among likely voters....

it’s McCain/Palin by 10 points!

Not this bad since Ducockus I don’t believe....

Even Mondale looked better at this point. Maybe Biden can explain it all to us in an hour or so.

You hit it on the head.
