If Obama really is up by 20+, he shouldn't need to spend time playing prevent defense in PA. It should be in the bag! That's how we know Pew is flat out lying about the spread.

It used to be the voters choice was reflected in polls...

Now the polls reflect what the voters should choose....

And ain’t it a damn shame that all the media and pollsters are in the tank for Obama?

God willing....McCain/Palin 08!!!!

“The embryonic totalitarian regime is trying out it’s propaganda machine.”

Scary, but true. Do you think they would try to apply the fairness doctrine to FreeRebublic?

Tell me. If Obama is this landslide winner Pew claims he is, why does he need to spend time on an expensive half hour infomercial this week to make the sale? I mean, isn't it already apparent? So why even do it?

There are gpoing to many, many polling firms, in fact all that are going to have egg on their face after this election.

We say this going into every election and yet during the next cycle we are still focused on what every polling firm has to say.

Exactly! If he’s “the one” then why does he have to spend so much on ads and campaigning?

So much for taking the “high road.” Not mentioning Rev. Wright was very noble of Sen. McCain, and very stupid. I though he was a warrior, not a wimp. He should be ashamed of accepting the nomination and failing to run a good campaign.

“Here it comes...the DEMORALIZATION CAMPAIGN!”

It’s our turn next week when we turn out in droves to vote next week. I am totally undaunted by these clowns.

I hear the Lefties are gonna start a “12 step” recovery program after Hussein loses.

Not possible because you have to admit you have a problem and believe in God to work the 12 steps.

I beg to disagree a little. The repsectable polling firms (Rasmussen, Gallup, Battleground, IBD/TIPP), as Rush Limbaugh has always suggested, will endeavor to get it right as the election gets closer to the end. I predict even the ABC tracking poll will start to move down to about 5% soon. There is just too much evidence out there to deny that McCain has the momentum now. As to what CNN, MSNBC and the MSM report that’s a different story.

So they oversampled rats by FIFTEEN POINTS and only got a FOURTEEN POINT margin? LOL, talk about pathetic. This poll actually encourages me! (GOP turnout is going to be huge this election, and a large number - a third based on Ohio’s numbers - of newly registered donks don’t even exist.)
