I remember when this happened. The first debate was a big loss. Bush owned Kerry for the first 30 minutes, then the wind went out of his sails. Bush had been leading, then lost the lead seemingly over night. I remember there was panic around here that hadn’t been seen. Bush was behind or even until election day, when he eventually won by 3 points.

Of course every election is different. It is up to McCain to turn this sh1tfest around. His next opportunity is the upcoming debate Tuesday. I’ say it’s time to take the gloves off. 0bama has thin skin, and a glass jaw. I believe if he gets hit hard enough without his teleprompter nearby he could be rattled, and thrown off his game.

A president 0bama with a democrat controlled congress would be ab unmitigated disaster for our country. We will be looking at unchecked socialism and an attack on everything we cherish.

This thing is almost over, and our side needs to start playing for keeps.

There was the kid that called in today from U/Mass or U/Wis and said that Campus Obama Fever has cooled considerably in the last month or two. From my meager young folk connections, I would have to concur.

But the polls still look good for Obama

He also needs to use big government for a punching bag. Every bit of dust and stuffing he knocks out of it will be worth its weight in votes. I don’t know why he doesn’t understand this very simple thing

He doesn't understand it because he, like Bush, actually thinks big government is a good benign influence in the nation's life. McCain has a sort of an excuse. He never studied history much. Bush was a history major and he has no excuse whatsoever.

Great post, KoRn.

“Bush was behind or even until election day, when he eventually won by 3 points.”

He only won because U.S. Army troops, disguised as road signs and traffic cones, kidnapped thousands of african-americans to stop them from voting.

Some of their bodies were dumped in New Orleans during the Katrina clean-up. The rest are frozen in Cheney’s 100 square-foot freezer (located in his underground bunker), alongside the occupants of the planes that supposedly crashed on Spetember 11th and a bunch of regular citizens who more or less resemble Muslims.

One difference — McCain has *never* been up 6 points like Bush was!

Dick Morris said something interesting on Fox News yesterday. I know he can be dead wrong, but this struck a chord with me. He said that Obama has peaked -- and peaked too early.

Then McCain had better concede now, while he still has his dignity. Anybody can be dead wrong. Morris is always dead wrong. His consistency in that regard is mind blowing.

Are you sure Morris said that? I think it was Rove.

Yeah, I like Morris..but he can be wrong an awful lot, he used to be a polling guy, he no longer does them.

IMO, McCain and his BiPartisan stuff is flawed, we don’t won’t that, we want some butt kicked up in DC.

The problem is that many minorities feel as if Socialism (increased Socialism) is their way of getting what is theirs.

I wonder how many of the Lib trolls in here are coached and paid to do so?

Uhhhh....I’m not awake! Didn’t read date on post. My sentiments are still profound, if not timely - yet!

Dick Morris seems to be 1 week behind the times. This means that Obama is already starting to tank.
