Deat Heat In Nevada!
9/22/2008

As the two major presidential candidates prepare to debate Friday night, John McCain (45.8 percent) and Barack Obama (45.3 percent) are in a virtual dead heat, with McCain leading by the slightest of margins among likely voters in the state of Nevada, according to a poll released today by Suffolk University.

“What happens in Vegas may not stay in Vegas, because if Barack Obama tips the historically Republican Silver State his way, it may be indicative of a Democratic run from coast to coast among the battleground states,” said David Paleologos, director of the Political Research Center at Suffolk University in Boston.

Nevada has voted Republican in eight of the last 10 presidential elections, dating back to 1968.

---------------

Methodology

The Suffolk University poll was conducted Wednesday September 17, 2008, through Sunday, September 21, 2008. The margin of error on the study of 600 is +/- 4 percent at a 95 percent level of confidence. All respondents from the Nevada statewide survey were likely voters. There were 300 respondents bellwether of Washoe County, Nev., identified separately from the statewide poll. Marginals will be posted on the Suffolk University Political Research Center Web site on Monday, Sept. 22, 2008. There will be 198 pages of cross-tabulation data posted on Tuesday, Sept. 23, 2008. For more information, contact David Paleologos at 781-290-9310.

4. Ha ha ha...
Oh sorry about that but this is just to funny. McCain has to be shaking his head in a panic as he begins to wonder, "What the hell is going on...?"

Allow me to answer the question, dear senator forgetful. Uh... you are getting your ass kicked by a novice senator from the state of Illinois. Aren't you suppose to be the one with experience? So far the only experience I see you have is the exeperience of totally losing against a rookie. Ha ha ha... so much for your 26 years of experience. Barack has only been in the senate for 2 years... 2 YEARS!! Oh this is just so funny and on top that he is black/biracial. You mean to tell all us this biracial kid is beating you... ha ha ha. I think better stop laughing before I pass out from lack of air.

I can't wait to see how Palin fares against Biden... Poor Palin... Alas, we knew her... uh not quite so well but then again with that harpy voice she has I think most of us were running away with hands over our bleeding ears when we heard her start talking. Between Palin, the economy falling apart all around us and tons of pissed off out of work Americans I think your chances of winning this election are fading fast. Sucks to be you, my friend.

Oh and another thing please stop using that damn 'my friends' line. I have never nor do I ever want to be your damn friend. You annoy me.
