It's way too premature to call this thing. A lot can happen in a month. There are more debates - including the one tomorrow for the VPs. Palin could come out and absolutely demolish Biden and show that she is ready to step in for McCain on day one.

I have heard this before... hmmm it was... oh yeah, it was during Gore/Bush oh and again during Kerry/Bush. Oh I forgot, they stole the election or it would have been true. How could I have forgotten, silly me.

Don't you understand, they have already won! There is no need to vote, just call the election now. *chuckle*

exactly i wouldn't start planning the Obama won after-party just yet. I'm 100% sure that this election is not going to play out the way everyone is predicting and I'm also 100% sure that a big chunk of these black people who are walking round with Obama T-shirts are NOT going to vote. I have a girlfriend who's been on the Obama bandwagon for months and she hasn't registered yet. The media keeps saying the black vote is going to push him over - I think the number of black voters is going to increase but I'm not expecting huge turnout like they're suggesting.

Saying you're going to vote is one thing - doing it is another.
