This worries me more than anyother signal collection of data -- for prctical intents and purposes -- the election is already over in a number of these states...

You can't "come back from behind" if this many voters have already cast ballots...

Anybody see any silver-lining here?

IGNORE Karl Rove please! His analysis was flawed in 2000 and 2004 and cost us in 2006. If he said the sky was blue I would go check.

Obama and his radical friends at ACORN and the DNC (abetted by the MSM) intend to steal this election if they cannot win it...and they are afraid that they certainly will not win it.

JOIN THOSE INVOKING GOD'S BLESSINGS ON OUR NATION THIS 2008 ELECTION

But I'm not buyin' the push polls, which are heavily weighted in their sampling to the dems...and neither should anyone else. They are simply an attempt for the most part, IMHO, to supress the GOP vote.

On the ground, the crowds that Sarah is drawing now (30,000 in FL, 24,000 coming in Indiana, etc.), tell the real stroy...and the DNC, MSM, and Obama's campaign know it.

SARAH PALIN DRAWING HUGE CROWDS ALL ACROSS AMERICA






...and then there is this:

People who vote early are probably those whose mind is firmly made up, so you couldn't sway them to the other side. For our side, which is a lot more finicky, some 12th hour stunt by Obama wouldn't affect votes already cast.

The WSJ is calling for a federal investigation of ACORN and ties Obama to the whole mess.

Don’t be so sure about early voting. In 2004 if I recall correctly Bush was way behind in early voting in FL. The couple of weeks before election day was filled with sights of long lines at early voting sites all over florida. More than one story ran that the early voting was heavily in favor of Kerry. But on election day, of course Bush won.

The early voters are partisans who already know who they are voting for. I will be doing it myself next week when my state begins early voting.

I will be pleasantly surprised if McCAin wins, but I dont have my hopes to high. I am voting and am urging all I know to vote McCain. I just see to many people seeing McCain as another 4 years. Not really interested in the details just they want something different.

McCain and Palin need to take it to the people like they have been doing lately. Screw the media and Washington. Take it to the people.

Yes - only committed voters will vote early. The soft voters will wait until the last minute to make a firm and final decision.

This many voters have already cast ballots for who, BO? I know several McCain supporters who have voted early.

My wife and I voted last week here in Virginia and I can assure you that B. Hussein Obama was not the candidate either of us voted for.

To me the biggest silver lining is the sign-on date feature of Free Republic, which is invaluable in helping to determine the "concerned conservative troll" from one's run-of-the-mill troll.

New York City - hey! Didn't at least one of the domestic terrorist Bill Ayers' bombs go off there?!? Wow, talk about being concerned...

he does have a point.

In FL the DNC stages rallies across from the voting stations (but respecting legal distance)

Then after or during the rally, union thugs “escort” the attendees to vote.

Kerry did the same thing.

They did it in 2006.

"Anybody see any silver-lining here? "

Yes! Don't believe the media. They lie to suppress your vote.

Propaganda...it's called.

God bless America!!! McCain/Palin 2008!!!
