For certain. Very hard hit economy there, infrastructure crumbling, home insurance failures, and job losses, real problems that need Obama to help solve them, not the same old corruption from Mccain.

Obama won't solve a thing . Speeches with no real clue don't solve real problems.
Obama has never solved a thing in the past for anyone.

However I agree as of today Obama is moving up and Mccain is falling fast as his campaign seems lost

McCain has lost the wind from his sails, he is spending so much time defending his inept bottom of the ticket.

people are mad at mccain now because of his position on the bailout bill. we want him to stand up and do the right thing! of course, obama's position is the same on the bailout bill so it may be a wash in the end on that particular issue. it is just that we want him to stop the crazy congressional spending. maybe the blue dog democrats and house republicans will ride in like the cavalry again!

Mccain has been falling due to ill run campaign and top post put hit it right on the nail .
His defending of Palin has taken him away from real campaigning,speeches,etc.

I have only been here 2 yrs am from PA. Florida has a do nothing Attorney General who has no concept of consumer rights or much of anything else.
He simply doesn't do his job.

He is honest which is more than can be said for the S.Florida equally useless and corrupt politicians but he still does not do his job.

I like the Gvnr a lot he is active not asleep at the wheel.

Yes, the laws in Fl are very different from everwhere else....(Beware of Assisted Living and Nursing Homes down there, they arent state regulated. ) Proving again, lack of oversight/laws, is NOT always an answer, infrastructure starts crumbling.
