2. Obama is up over 10% in PA, McHate is up only 6.6% in AZ
why aren't they talking about how Obama could win AZ.. and GA.. they are much closer to the margin of error than PA. No way in HELL can McHate come back from a 10 point deficit in one freakin' week, and still hold on to all those red states that he's losing ground in.

3. Saw that too. Obama is up by an avg. of 10.8%, w/ a range of 8-13%, on RCP.

Not a lot of spread there. That's a VERY solid 10% lead.

McCain couldn't win PA unless here were some serious shenanigans going on.

4. Only thing that concerns me is the long lines people will have to wait in (w/ limited time off work)
We have no early voting in Pennsylvania; I just hope all of those who intend to vote for Obama get to vote. I hear these horror stories about several-hour-long lines for early voting in some states, and I just worry that those who only have an hour or two to devote to standing in line at the polling place in Pennsylvania on Election Day -- those who cannot take more than that off work -- will not be able to exercise their civic right. And can you imagine what the lines will be like AFTER work, in this election year, with no early voting? They may have to keep the polls open till midnight to accommodate everyone in line!

5. All the states with a Republican serving as Sec. of State will make it
difficult for voters(Democratic voters)...by whatever means they can.

6. This is the only election. Where 10 points is considered close
Or the person down 10 points is considered to have a chance to win. lol
