Thank you for all the welcome backs haha.
And I mean you all on NT need a differing opinion anyway.... it's like 95% democrats/liberals
As much as you guys seemingly hate conservatives, I'd hope you'd at least be open to the other side's view. After all it is going to make up 40+%of the national vote.

Just a heads up.
Sources & people are buzzing on the internet.
I'm reading some VERY interesting developments regarding voter fraud & word has been released that there could be some breaking news tomorrow.
Sources & people are buzzing on the internet.
I'm reading some VERY interesting developments regarding voter fraud & word has been released that there could be some breaking news tomorrow.
US election officials believe they have uncovered massive attempted voter fraud less than a month before the country goes to the polls to choose its new president.
Eleven separate investigations have now been launched into a voter registration group called the Association of Community Organisations for Reform - or Acorn.
---Sky News
This could get really interesting tomorrow.
I'm not saying there is definitely going to be breaking news tomorrow or something huge is about to happen... but the idea is definitely being thrownaround in several corners, including as high up as the McCain campaign itself (not just media sources, blogs, etc)

On what, they won't say.
"We'll have something to talk about," is all a campaign aide would allow.
Lets see where all these developments go....

A spokeswoman for Obama's campaign would not comment on his past ties to the group but said the work ACORN is now engaged in is separate from the campaign.
"The Obama campaign is not affiliated with nor do we work with ACORN," Kirsten Searer said. "We have our own, separate voter registration campaign."

TBONE we've agreed on a lot of things on here politically, same with Fede DPT, but I think this thing is over. People are exhausted with the Republicanparty over the last 8 years, and I hate to say it but the bailout most certainly favors Obama. What people are looking at right now are the CEOs, Wall Streetinvestors and bankers, job losses and people not being able to pay for their homes: MONEY. While it's obviously not the truth, people tend to look at Bushas the scapegoat for EVERYTHING and seem to forget we have a bipartisan system along with checks and balances. I'm voting absentee from London for thestate of Ohio and the people here LOVE Obama and are truly tired of the Bush years which, in my opinion, Americans have hit their boiling point: not just forBush, but the party itself. Not taking anything away from him, but Barack seems to have come along at the perfect time to get himself elected, and I think in amonth we're looking at the first black president of the United States...

Dem strategists see landslide in the making
By DAVID PAUL KUHN | 10/9/08 4:32 AM
If Obama wins four states in which he's taken a lead in the polls, he would likely surpass 350 electoral votes-a remarkable turn of events.

The Gallup poll was notably unreliable that year:

CNN had Bush in the lead at this point:

That was from yesterday. The "Big news" simply turned to be the launching of an Ayers ad.. like no one had ever heard of this before
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1008/14419.htmlhttp://www.politico.com/news/stories/1008/14419.html
McCain's camp already swore off Wright, Ayers is going nowhere. McCain's only chance now is to try to fabricate some type of connection between Obama and the ACORN voter fraud. But again, there is nothing of substance there. They'd have to really spin something out of that one.
And more likely than not, the independent voters will respond NEGATIVELY as they have been doing, and will simply gravitate even more towards Obama.
There is a lot more to many of the things you're saying then you think, but that's expected you'd think that way.
Also for you to say an attack necessarly won't work isn't truthful.
What happened just 4 years ago with Kerry? Remember the "swiftboat" thing? It was tied and then Kerry fell 7% behind....
And about the Gallup poll... either way just 4 years ago there was a large shift late in the game. And there have been other large shifts late in the game.
Like I've said... I think Obama will win, but that certainly doesn't mean there isn't a chance somethingcould happen so that McCain wins. A lot can happen in 25-30 days.
Also the Gallup poll is an interesting poll.... at this point it's showing Obama up 11%? Not likely....
If you take the average of all the other polls he's up only 5.0%
If you take the average of all of the other tracking polls.... Obama's up 4.5%
However, Gallup isn't exactly the highest rated pollster...

Lol republicans have no biz talking about voter fraud. They have already been caught trying to kick out new voters at the rate of 1 in 4 lol.

No need to preach that to me, like I've said Obama should win....
Well polls in general can't necessary be trusted anyway, there are a lot of unaccounted for variables.
Here's what 2004 looked like for reference....
Kerry gained 2.5% in roughly the last 3 weeks of the election...

Conservatives are really starting to get pissed.... they're even starting to get at McCain in town halls [color= rgb(255, 0, 0)][see video below][/color]
I've read stories about people in town halls telling McCain he needs to get mad & really start getting after it, [besides the example below]
As a conservative who listens to conservative talk radio, watches Fox News, reads conservative blogs, and reads conservative message boards....
I can tell you that there is a shift that has started in the way people are starting to feel about things.
My prediction is that this race is going to start getting quite heated coming up in several different ways.
