Look up S190. That's the smoking gun in this election. She nailed him on it. The dems got their fingers in the cookie jar and the hockey mom is slappin' hands!!!

I can say that without hesitation that the Fox poll is ridiculously biased. The CNN, CBS, NBC, et al polls are not as nearly biased, however, the networks themselves are biased. As an outsider looking in, your country is so divided politically that I am not sure how either candidate could appeal to the other side of the political spectrum. Your nation needs more than two major parties to choose from, not just two extremes. I am genuinely concerned for the well being of your nation.

Ever look up opinion polls on the press?

How about a lil CNN polling to balance off the Fox:

"The CNN/Opinion Research Corp. said 51 percent of those polled thought Biden did the best job, while 36 percent thought Palin did the best job. But respondents said the folksy Palin was more likable, scoring 54 percent to Biden's 36 percent. Seventy percent said Biden was more of a typical politician" OUCH!

Biden made several non-factual statements. Why would I listen to a guy that thought Obama was not fit to lead the country a few months ago but now thinks Obama is the greatest. He either was lying a few months ago or lying now, you choose. Probably the latter.

Check out the aproval numbers for "seasoned senators" on Real Clear Politics. S 190 got out of the bag tonight, finally.

We appreciate the concern. But I've got to say, I don't see you as that much of an outsider. If we gave you a gun, I think you could pass for American.
