@gungasnake,
Oh no, now he's only going to win by a 12 point margin instead of 13.

Don't you mean he's only going to win by a 13 point margin instead of 14?

Well, it's been a few minutes since I posted that, so his lead has probably gone up already.
Just as long as its not Mkkkain
Wouldn't bet your house on it, gungasnOinKKK, if I were you (assuming it still has any value after the Republican-deregulation economic meltdown, that is). Rasmussen Reports daily tracking polls, which historically have tilted a bit Republican, have Obama seven points above McCain, and that hasn't changed in the daily tracking for the last two weeks. And their newest shows 55% think Obama will win, versus FIFTEEN PERCENT (not a misprint) who think McCain will win. McCain's and Palin's smears (and yours) ain't sticking. Looks like the electorate's not gonna buy the swiftboating this time around. Live by the smear, die by the smear.
The ACORN controversy has been another red herring. But sensible people already knew that.
Quote:Video: Attacks on ACORN are part of a long-running right-wing campaign of voter suppression.
A new video from Brave New Films makes the case that recent fear-mongering claims of “voter fraud” are part of a long-running right-wing campaign to suppress the vote. As evidence, the video documents this statement made in 1980 by conservative activist Paul Weyrich:
They want everybody to vote! I don’t want everybody to vote. Elections are not won by a majority of people " they never have been from the beginning of our country and they are not now. As a matter of fact, our leverage in the elections, quite candidly, goes up as the voting populace goes down.
