Listen, are we ready for Too Close to Call? MSM Fantasy Land; McCain Implodes in MTP
Everyone saw how McCain was imploding on MTP even if Tom Brokejaw was throwing gardenia bouquets at McLost. We are hearing David Frum saying that McDrag is destroying the gOP and that Sarah Palin is a rogue politician throwing McGone under the bus. But the ones truly living in Fantasy land are the MSM with their new narrative of "Too Close Too Call'. The MSM wants a close race, but for them is "Too Painful To Watch" seeing their clay monster McCain falling to pieces in front of their eyes.

So, Democrats, please do not pay attention to the MSM and the McCain moon bats saying that we have a great comeback here. Barack Obama will win, everyone knows it and this Too CLose Too Call is just a charade to attract attention. So, do not panic, remember, it has been 2 years of this horseshit...Tomorrow Monday we will see Rasmussen steady at a >5 points for Barack and a slew of new polls bouncing around a 5-7 lead for Obama. Tuesday will be screaming and shouting day for McCain and the MSM and Obama will deliver Wednesday his TV infomercial and Thursday and Friday the GOP and McCain will finally see the writing on the wall. Saturday and Sunday Obama will consolidate his >5 lead and Monday will be the last and failed desperation Hail Mary by McDeath until Tuesday he concedes somewhere in somebody's lawn. Wednesday will be delicious in the GOP finger pointing and the brouhaha about how McCain ruined the GOP and they will hate him more than ever. Stay tuned because we are about to get the landing gears down and it will be a little bumpy. Stay cool, calm and collected and on to victory!

GOBAMA!

1. The more they say it, the more it motivates Dems to get out and vote
I personally took a great deal of pleasure casting my vote for Obama Biden.

2. 9 days to a new America.
We have 9 days left to bring about the kind of change that rarely happens - not only a Democratic President but the possibility of a veto-proof Congress as well. Ask yourself what you can do - each of these last nine days to make a difference.

Its NOW or Never - Yes. We. Can.

3. Operation Too Close To Call is officially up and running
Edited on Sun Oct-26-08 12:56 PM by rocknation
The MSM claims the race is tightening. The pollsters follow suit by oversampling Repubs. The public keeps tuning in to the MSM and fall for it--self-fulfilling prophecy fulfills self-fulfilling prophecy.

By Friday, Obama and McCrazed will be within five points. By Monday, it will be within the three-point margin of error. The swing states will suddenly come down with voting machine "problems," and we DO end up staying up late...

:scared:

4. I personally think a lot of that has to do with news ratings if it was a foregone conclusion
what would they talk about.

5. Translation: "Please keep watching our shows!"
Particularly MSNBC, as they don't want to see Mourning Joe's ratings completely slide (although I'd be more than happy to see that happen). As it is, the only MSNBC shows I can consistently stand watching are Olbermann and Maddow. Tweety is a little too much like Andrea, some days he's good Tweety, other days the dark side has taken over. But, yes, the networks definitely have a vested interest in keeping this looking like a neck-to-neck horserace.
