I just have to laugh at the Freepers who truly believe that McCain is going to walk away with this election, even talking in terms of a landslide.

I'm one of those FReepers and I still stand by my prediction. McCain by at leats 55% of the votes, Obama 45% or less. McCain with more than 300 EVs and Obama with the leftoovers.

The fact is, that polls right now are not reflective of what the voters will think one or two weeks away from Nov 4th, and when it comes right down to the wire, people will be examining the candidates a lot more carefully than they are right now.

Just before casting their ballots, people will be asking themselves, "do I really want to take a chance on a known quantity of ZERO and a dangerous individual when it comes to national defense, or do I go with national safety and a proven quantity?"

I'm still expecting a very close race.

I love where we are in Missouri and Florida. Despite this poll, I think we are in very good shape in Virginia and Ohio. Nevada has been moving strongly in our direction as well.

That leaves Colorado as the last remaining question mark "must win" state. If we open up a lead there, and I think we will as more time passes since the RAT convention was held there, then Obama's chances of becoming POTUS will be hanging by a thread.
