well, yes and no. This whole tack is starting to sound like whistling past
the graveyard. Oh, and two interesting poll-
related items:
PA poll of the 'Alabama' part of the state(ie: not Pittsburgh or
Philadelphia) showed McCain statistically tied with Obama. If that holds up,
put Obama FIRMLY in control of 23 electoral votes
Second--Pew Trust study of polling methodologies shows a 5% undercount
estimate of Obama support, due to virtually all polls incapable of hitting
cell-phone only users, who have no landline to identify.
Every bit as interesting as speculation on who wants what out of Obama in
Congress. And, with real numbers to back it up.

Obama by 48 electoral votes, at least.


As most current guesses are just that -- guesses, here is mine:

McCain by 20-40 electoral votes, but popular vote a toss-up, with
plurality either way.

If McCain loses the popular vote, he loses.

fivethirtyeight.com gives McCain a 2.5% chance of winning given a popular
vote loss

The winners: ExxonMobil, Disney, Microsoft, Chase Manhattan, India, China,
etc., by a landslide.

The losers: Not me.

Exactly!!! ...and go ahead of the class.

So far as the debate last night...it was a dog and an embaraament to
our country. Either of the clowns brought ANYTHING to the table
except the same business as usual bull**** that typically spews out of
Washington. You might as well vote for Paris Hilton or Pee Wee
Herman...things won't be any different.

I can't believe the public can't see through this nonsense. Moreover,
I am absolutely stumped that American taxpayers don't understand the
simple capitalist concept: You get more of what you happily pay for.
In other words, the more bailouts you give, the more failures you
get.

I cannot believe that some anonymous ****-maggot with such a **** poor grasp
of the English langauge would think that any American taxpayer gives a ****
about anything that he, she, it is trying so desparately to convey?

You seem confused. You have the OP's post and mine lumped together, yet you
removed the OP's header, which makes it appear as though I had posted all
that you chose to comment about?

Therefore, I cannot answer your first query about "time."

My only contribution to this thread was "I cannot believe that some
anonymous ****-maggot with such a **** poor grasp of the English langauge
would think that any American taxpayer gives a **** about anything that he,
she, it is trying so desparately to convey?"

So, if you are asking *me* if I "just finished listening to the Prez's radio
address[,]" the answer is no. There would be no point in listening to a
lying POS like him, unless he were to state that he was resigning as POTUS,
effective immediately!

Oh boy....another academic imbecile who focuses on grammar and typos
instead of content. Obviously you are a ****-for-brains neocon. Hope
you portfolio took a nice hit today. Hasta la vista inbreed.

Oh...and by the way you spelled "language" and "desperately" wrong.
What a ****ing retards!!!
