Electoral-Vote.com today
352-171 in favor of Obama.....

.....but the scary part is, North Dakota, Montana and Georgia are seeing the Democrats catch up! :wow:

I can't even believe it. I can't. All three of those states had big Bush wins in 2004. Yet Montana is already going Demo, Montana and Georgia are moving that way.

Anybody else amazed by this?!

1. That West Virginia Poll is bogus - the polling place is owned by a guy who writes for Town Hall
so you know it's skewed right

5. this is the 2nd poll this month showing WV tightening...
Holy shit! I totally doubted that earlier poll, but I read today that Obama is going to run ads in WV now, so it must be close.

Incredible!

6. I definately thing WVa is close but I would not use IA polls to make that statement
Having Rockefeller up for re-election should help since he'll win in a landslide

2. I'm concerned--so help me, I'm concerned about Joe the Plumber.
This is one of those "So crazy it just might work" things that, who knows, might give McCain a comeback. Stranger things have happened--maybe in ten years years, all the TV pundits will be talking about the "Joe the Plumber" moment that such and such a candidate needs to pull ahead.

Who knows? Talk me down, somebody. :scared:

3. Well first of all Joe the Plumber is not all that he says.
He has admitted that he does not make $250,000 a year. He does not own a plumbing business. It is not even clear that he is a licensed plumber. No, I don't think this story is likely to play out in a way which will help McGrumpy at all.
