It's looking like Obama/Biden may not finish at all...

Spin that.
Remember the Bradley Effect. People lie to pollsters about
voting for black candidates. Most pollsters and political
scientists have pegged the Bradley Effect at around 7%.
Those polls don't look so good to me.
sorry, Ken, but you are very much out-of-date. Current estimates, based on
recent elections(post-2000), peg the effect at less than 2%. Further, recent
work by the Pew Study group show that it is very likely that most, if not
all, major polling organizations are undercounting the Obama support by
close to 5%.
I've never been happier to stand corrected.
I can't understand why any Democrat would be scared by current
numbers, beyond the fact that those numbers are merely current, and
gawd-knows-what could happen between now and Nov.4.
Everything scares me, especially the October Surprise I know
is coming.
