I’m figuring McCain-Palin will beat Barack HUSSEIN Saetoro...er...Obama by six to ten million votes and maybe more.

They just said Obama up by 8 in Virginia. Sorry, don’t believe it. But McCain-Palin need to come to Virginia soon for a rally. Very soon.

I remember the "base" being fired up for that election, but not as "FIRED UP" as they are now!!!

I have NEVER seen the base so excited!

Anyone who fails to vote or chages his vote because of polls should have his voting rights revoked. Sadly, fools cannot be excluded from the voting process.

So...
It would appear that Gallup, Marist COllege, and the much-maligned Zogby called that race correctly.

It is amazing how the same lies are repeated but yet many here still fall for it.

Are you saying this is Bush's Fault?

But seriesly you make a good point. Don't trust these polls people. They are not accurate. The same thing happened in 2004 and 2000. Democrats would love for you to go quietly into the night. Don't surrender without a fight!

ACORN has obviously falsely registered MILLIONS AND MILLIONS of voters and obviously shows them as registered DEMOCRATS. The pollsters then see these waves of democratic registrations and “fix” their numbers to reflect what they THINK will be the voting demographics. Only those people won’t be showing up to vote, so the democratic turnout is being GREATLY exaggerated, which means McCain may well be ahead in a legitimate poll.

“...much-maligned Zogby.”

LOL!

It always strikes me as funny, that the guy who has consistently gotten it right is the target of so many ignorant attacks.

Oh well, just shows that bigots hate truth.

Gore had a narrow lead in 2000:

http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0EIN/is_2000_Oct_24/ai_66305753

In the article above:

Among the states in Harris Interactive’s October poll, Al Gore holds a 262 to 122 Electoral College advantage over George Bush. Overall, including best estimates for states not in the Harris Interactive poll, it is estimated that Gore holds a 317 to 221 advantage over Bush, with 270 needed to win. According to Harris Interactive analysts, it is important to recognize that Gore’s advantage is based on very narrow leads in a few large states:

— Florida (25 Electoral College votes), Gore leads by 49% to 43% in October,
down from 52% to 43% in September.

— Missouri (11), Gore leads by just 48% to 44%.

— New Jersey (15), Gore leads by 48% to 40%, down from 58% to 34% in
September.

— Ohio (21), Gore leads by just 48% to 45%, down slightly from 49% to 44%.

— Washington (11), Gore leads by just one point (45% to 44%).

I also remember that, on Election Day itself, Kerry had already won, as evidenced by exit polls.

It is clear that Obama and the other rats are trying to steal the election.
