Polls should start to break our way now
Its time for the Challenger Effect to take hold. If the undecideds are going to break for Kerry, and I believe they are, then that should start to show up in the polls any day now.

Also, it seems that the GOPers have conceded that Kerry has successfully removed the most serious doubts about his ability to be an effective C-in-C. That, in my opinion, was the last obstacle to having the swing voters come with us on election day.

How could they oppose Bush but still refuse to vote for Kerry? That appeared to be the case a few weeks ago, but fortunately that phenomenon seems to have died just in time. Kerry seems to have done an effect job in the debates.

End Rant. Go Kerry!

1. The polls may not clearly break our way until 10/30-11/2
It typically happens right before the election that the challenger picks up support.

3. Incremental
I think we're going to see a 1-2 point improvement in the polls over the next week to ten days. The majority of the shift will occur during the last week before the election.

Work like hell till then! You can sleep on November 3rd!

2. They SHOULD. But the bushies are relentless. I've never seen
a bunch in my 50 years that is so desperate to hold on to power. I'm very anxious about what they have up their sleeves. I'm very anxious about Sinclair and "Stolen Honor."
