Holy shit, McCain and Obama now essentially tied

Within the margin of error @ 49-47 Obama. in Gallup's daily tracking poll. This is before McCai's excellent performance in last night's debates. Fuck, we're in trouble.

:(
 
nO, nO TROUBLE AT ALL. This is not news. We've all known all along that it will be an extremely close race.
 
So you suggest the position should remain vacant? I love third parties as much as you (well, I don't love Ralph Nadar but that's another story,) but the fact is that this time around, one of the two big parties is getting into the white house. Notice I didn't name the candidates specifically. That's because a lot can still occur between now and January 20th . . .

Blah blah blah, the human race is screwed anyways and the rest of everything due to the eventual heat death of the universe. Universal warming must be stopped!
 
The "traditional" likely voter model, which Gallup has employed for past elections, factors in prior voting behavior as well as current voting intention. This has generally shown a closer contest, reflecting the fact that Republicans have typically been more likely to vote than Democrats in previous elections.

Of course attack ads work! And gas prices are dropping, as they tend to do right before an election, which aides the incumbent party. Anyone who thought/thinks that Obama can easily win the 2008 presidential election is a fool. This has been and continues to be an exciting race!

It's so much easier to throw up your hands and declare everyone a scoundrel than to make a difficult decision between two imperfect candidates. They're different, and the choice has tradeoffs. As a grown up, you ought to put in the effort to distinguishing between them.

Yes, they're all old and overused, but they are appropriate to the occasion

Have you not noticed me nearly screaming my head off for a third party candidate?

Bob Barr is the man I'm voting for in the upcoming election.

Besides, I think it takes a lot more courage to break away from the mindless pack of Americans who think Republicans and Democrats are the only party out there.

No, I don't think the office should remain vacant. I just think that it's time the Republicrats step aside and let someone else prove their worth.

I agree that it's inevitable that one of the two major parties is going to end up in the oval office come Jan 20th. However, this will be an historic election anyway, because the Libertarians are gonna take a HUGE slice of the voting public away from the Republicrat Duopoly.

... and Ralph Nader is a nitwit.
 
All the electoral map projections tell a different story. Even CNN & The NY Times, which don't like to put either candidate over the 270 margin unless it's a rout, gave Virginia to Obama today, which puts him over 270 in eventhe most timid/conservative of projections.

He doesn't need Ohio or Florida anymore, so those little troll states can tilt their vote any way they like.
 
Obama is spending big bucks in Florida, but I don't think he has enough money to ever get past the racist rednecks and ancient retiree racists.

Yeah, I wanted to turn off the tv and wait for them to finish talking to Joe the plumber and start talking to me and the rest of the country.
 
That's because as usual Hero is just spamming. He actually has nothing to contribute other than spam in the non spam forums and stalking me.

Go figure.
 
lol.. now they're digging into Joe's background! Gotta have something to fill the 24hr news cycles. Cable news shows are like hyenas.
