The election is much closer then people realize. The samples are weighted heavily democratic, at most the percentage nationally is 3-5 percent favoring
democrats, all of the polling is 40-30 38-28. The winning canidates percentage will be between 1-2.5 percent if Obama maintains a 5 percent lead.

That's because most people identify as Democrats. And it's alot more than a 5% difference

Let me spell it out for you.

In the last Year we've had three special elections in long held GOP Districts. One in Dennis Hastert's old District (GOP Speaker of the House), in a bright red Mississippi District, and a bright red Lousianna District.

The GOPers had their behinds kicked out of office in all three.

Americans are sick of right wingers. We've had enough and we can't take it anymore. We dont care if you're going to gripe and whine about it. That's about the only thing you do well.

The adults are in charge now!

I will mail you a box of tissues after the election, If Palin had not been picked I would agree with you, the problem you will find out is, she will attract a lot of people from diffrent demographics that a normal right winger would.

Yes of course. You have all the answers, and you are very sure of yourself, and you're more patrtiotic and and a better American. And you are really angry about what is going on.

Tell you what. Go find some other people that agree with you and maybe go win an election over a Democrat somewhere???? Anywhere??? Remove a Democrat from office office at the ballot box???

Until then, all you are is a WATB
