I'm going to go out on a limb here. I'm guessing 25% of so-called Oboma supporters won't actually vote. They've been harassed and intimidated to vote Oboma so much by the left wing agitators, they'll just sit home - especially the college students - and laugh.

I'll also guess another 25% are really going to vote for McCain in private, but don't want their left wing friends or family members to know it. They just don't want to have to deal with their rabid attacks or their persistent whining for the next 30 days or so.

It’s better to play like you’re 10 points down, than to do nothing and pretend you’re up.

Oh, absolutely. Why not win by 10 points? That would make any call for a recall a waste of time.

But the same methodology that today’s polls used is the same one used yesterday, and there is a marked difference in the numbers.

Not true. The pollsters have been intimidated into adding the youth vote into their numbers. Most of the youth are being literally forced through intimidation by college activists to vote Oboma. Most of them won't bother voting at all. They just did it to shut the crazy leftists up and get them out of their faces. I know. I was once a college kid.

It's certainly possible that he will be seen a successful after 2 and 4 years.

No it's not. He's an affirmative-action pick, educated far above his ability. Due to AA, he doesn't even KNOW how incompetent he is, because he's been getting the self-esteem strokes his whole life. If he is elected, wehn he finds out the buck stops at his desk, he will panic and collapse, probably before Easter.
