Rep Power: 205 | | | Fear sells. Have you noticed that the Republicans always win by making Americans afraid of something? Mostly afraid of liberals, and as stupid as it is, it works every time.
I thought hope and change would win the day this time around, but it only seems to work on Democrats.
Whatever happens, I still think the Dems will have a sizable majority in Congress. And I hope McCain takes Liberman as VP. |

In the poll's horserace question, Obama got a small bump out of the announcement, and now leads McCain, 46% to 44%, in a two-way contest, and leads 45% to 42% in a five-way contest including Libertarian candidate Bob Barr of Georgia, who won 4%, Green Party nominee Cynthia McKinney and liberal independent candidate Ralph Nader, both of whom won 1% support.

And Rasmussen thinks it's b/c disaffected Hillary voters are cranky... Quote: |
Obama’s support has declined in each of the last three individual nights of polling. This may be either statistical noise or a reaction to the selection of Biden. If it’s the latter, it probably has less to do with Biden than Hillary Clinton. Forty-seven percent (47%) of Democratic women say Clinton should have been picked and 21% of them say they’ll vote for McCain.

The Hillarybots need to get over it or they're going to screw up the supreme court for generations...

Seriously... not a shot. Did he suck up... well, there are huge populations of uncommitted voters who are religious. He was respectful and talked about his own faith. I doubt that Hillary would have done much differently.

And if he wins, he'll have to keep sucking up to them for the next election's votes. |

I don't think anyone ever answered me, though... did Bill Bradley have to prostrate himself to turn over his support when he didn't get the nomination?
