Obama should be way ahead in Pennsylvania. Since he is not, he should be scared senseless.
If its even on election day, McCain is leavin' him in the dust there.

And then we are going to have to put up with the mad rantings of hateful leftists, who will accuse this country of racism. Even worse, we're gonna have to put up with the posts around here about "He FINALLY took off the gloves!" or "The comeback kid!" or "The polls are tightening. Do you believe in miracles??"

"Steve Corbett, a radio talk show host in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, received a copy of an internal email sent by Grant Olin (sp?) who heads the Wilkes-Barre headquarters of the Obama campaign."
After saying what I just posted, this too could be a setup to trick McPal to spend mega millions there instead of somewhere that more crucial. I hope the 2pointer is the truth. There are just so many questions as to why now, why let the cat out of the bag today? Sorry, but something stinks here.

Not to worry. Tomorrow I’m pretty sure Quinnipiac or ARG will trot out a poll showing Obama leading by 8 or 9 points.

Most people don’t know how to interpret a poll, and that includes virtually all reporters and pundits — even the conservative-friendly ones. Let’s face it. For most people, their eyes start to glaze over once you start talking about “internals,” “turnout,” “demographics,” and other such esoteric stuff. They are interested only in the top line.
I tear into every one of these polls because I want to find a single poll that actually shows Obama ahead by a statistically significant margin in a sample that actually reflects a representative sample of likely voters. I haven’t seen one yet. The only polls I’ve seen that favor Obama either do not publish their internals or are clearly oversampling Democrats based on actual exit poll data and realistic turnout models.

Rose, McCain and Palin were both in PA today. Palin was there twice over the weekend. They have spent a ton of time and money in PA already. They will continue to do so with or without this thread.

Then he is toast there because in the primaries Pennsylvania has one of the largest Bradley effects.

Rest assured Team McCain has very accurate PA polling.
Therefore, it's impossible for Obama to “trick” them.

thanks! you made me smile before I go home for the day!
To: kesg
Good data. After 1986, it really settled into a stable pattern, anywhere from R+1 to D+4. Any poll trying to sell us D+double digits is bogus.

I’ll be the first to agree that this could be a setup, or it very well could be legit. However, I doubt that the McCain campaign would invest so much time and money here without good reason.

I’m feeling optimistic after seeing this poll. One of my democrat co-workers has been on the fence. Today at lunch she told me she saw a report about ACORN and the voter fraud and said she’s definitely voting McCain. It’s amazing how much the average person DOESN’T know about Obama.
To: Cedric
Bawhahahha...good one! We needed a laugh this was getting SERIES..:-]
To: Dan C
If those people believe their guy is going to win by such huge numbers it doesnt matter - theres a chance they dont show up to vote at all.
I started to get a little suspicious when all the conservative talking heads (Rove, Medved, Hannity) and McCain himself openly say and agree with the Pollsters that they are behind by around 5 points. I started thinking this may be ploy to get the ambivalent lefties to stay home since Obummer has it in the bag. Younger voters and drugged out FMers will totally blow it off if they think Obummer has it made.
Just a theory....

"Its amazing how much the average person DOESNT know about Obama."
Isn't that the truth. It's shocking how highly intelligent people can allow themselves to be so clueless and yet still VOTE. ACORN is going to hurt Zero much worse than the press acknowledges. It already is. I LOVE how Palin implicated him today with ACORN, too: "He needs to 'reign in' ACORN."
BUSTED.
Keep it up, sister. That dog will hunt!!

Yeahhhhh, I wondered about that same thing! Even M. Reagan was all over the point spreads yesterday on his show. I was heartsick after I heard Michael!
