4. McCain Negative Campaining working?

Maybe the Obama Campaign should come out swinging a little more? I don't know how his numbers can be dropping.

[Puzzler]

12. No, it's not so much that the negative ads are working...

... it's that stations like CNN are playing the McCain ads in full "A Rotation" (yes, just like a fucking Britney Spears hit) at least once an hour. All in the cause of "fair" discussion, you know ;)

6. Yes, they are that stupid

Sleeze works. That's why they do it.

3. Crap. McCain has had a very good night the last 2 nights. I'm afraid he might be up over Obama

tomorrow. I think they telegraphed that in their comments noting that McCain hadn't been above Obama yet.

7. Good. Maybe now the Obama campaign will start hitting back HARD with ads.

Knock McCain's ass out! Forget the war hero crap and hit his ass as hard as he's hitting you. Call him on all the flip-flops. If this was going to happen (McCain taking the lead) I would rather it happen now instead of in the Fall.

8. I do not believe these polls.

They just don't make any sense and they're all different.

9. CNN

As of polling through yesterday CNN has Obama up by 5.

10. There was a post on DU this AM stating that Gallup screwed up

the polling results. I tried to find it, but I forget what the title was and there were WAY too many Pubs surveyed. Apparently they considered the Country to be 50/50 split between Dems & Pubs...which in today's climate is NUTS!

11. exactly what the MSM has been whoring for

won't they be happy when they get their dream-boy McCain.

[WeDidIt]

13. Notice how it ALWAYS tightens mid week?

ALWAYS.

14. It's like the primaries all over again.
