1. Those are very strong numbers, for smugness.
Can't wait for the debate, tomorrow.

17. Gore lost MT by 25%, Kerry lost by 21%, latest polls shows McCain up by only 8% (Obama is doing even
better in Texas and Georgia than he's doing in Montana).

I'm not calling Texas, Georgia, or Montana "swing states," but if trends continue there, we'll have to upgrade them from red (solid Repub) to magenta (lean Repub).

33. I think Indiana is the real shocker. Gore lost by 16%, Kerry by 21%, but recent polls are within the
margin of error -- most showing McCain up by a fraction within the margin of error but some showing Obama up by a similar small amount.

3. I want to see what they look like after Oct. 15. If it's still this high or higher,
then I'll say we're in the clear. Brokaw is an enemy of the highest proportions.

5. Gosh, I won't know how to act if our ticket wins
Edited on Mon Oct-06-08 01:53 PM by JaneQPublic
I'm so used to being morbidly depressed for weeks after the presidential election that it's hard to imagine there could actually be a positive outcome.

7. I'm not getting confident
When the votes are counted and Obama is the nominee, I will feel good.

For now, I am sitting here depressed that my retirement is way down and kids college is completely gone.

8. Wow --- VA is particularly remarkable!
Whatever Obama has done to get this amazing shift, I hope his campaign can identify it and keep doing it!

Thanks for sharing this great news! :hi:

9. I want the numbers to be even bigger
I want no doubt that Obama kicked McCain and the neofacist's asses. I want Sarah Palin to go back into the hole she came out of and never see the day of public service again.

As you said we should continue to fight as if we are behind by 5% even more. The ground game is working now we have to make sure people get to the poles in November.

28. It's a great News but We have a war to win for next 4 weeks.The facist group will try to emear obama
but we have to fight back and help him to fight back as well.


1.Give donation to obama even $10.

2.Call mccain office and let them know how you feel about them : (703) 418-2008 , Mccain camp don't let phone calls to be private means you can not use *67 to call then but there is a way to be anonymous for your privacy right sake :


call Google 411 by dialing this number : *67 1-800-466-4411 , then for city and state , say Arlington Virginia and ask for john mcain. this way you get connected and your number will be private.

3.Call or email your TV stations who air those garbage and ask them stop this BS or you will boycott their sponsors.

4.Keep send email to Mcsame office VERY DAY. use this link

because if we start letting up now we could still lose those states
