    that is so funny.

    the reps are for private here and private there - and are against "socialism" or whatever you call it.

    now - mccain is the one here with the "socialist" public money - and obama is the "private" guy.

    double standard in its purest form.

    maybe obama is "buying" the presidency - so what. he does it in a fair way.

    republicans simply want to STEAL it - like they did many times before. what do you prefer???



    you rightwing crybabies - do you get that?

    MCCAIN SURGES AMONG YOUNG VOTERS
    By DICK MORRIS & EILEEN MCGANN


    "A massive shift in younger and older voters is roiling the presidential race according to new data from the Fox News/Opinion Dynamics Poll concluded October 28-29. Younger voters -- under 45 -- once Obama's base, now are evenly divided between the two candidates. But voters over 65 have shifted sharply to the Democrat in the past week.

    Voters under 45 supported Obama by 52-38 in the Fox News poll of October 21-22. But this week's survey indicates that they now break evenly with 45% supporting Obama and 46% backing McCain. On the other hand, voters 65 and over, who had backed Obama by 46-42 last week have now shifted decisively in his favor and he now leads McCain among seniors by 54-39. Middle aged voters -- aged 45-64 -- are largely unchanged in their views. Last week they backed Obama by 48-40 and this week they still support him by 48-43.

    Overall, the Fox News survey shows McCain narrowing Obama's lead from 49-40 (9 points) to 47-44 (3 points) over the past week.

    The shift in the attitudes of young people may be directly related to the tax issue, brought home by a McCain advertisement featuring Joe the Plumber. Younger voters, trying to make their way in their careers, are more sensitive to changes in taxes than older people, many of whom has retired from the labor force. By attacking Obama for wanting to "spread the wealth around", the McCain camp seems to have struck a nerve among those who are entering the most productive years of their employment history.

    On the other hand, seniors may be more comfortable with Obama than they have been previously and might be more accepting of his candidacy. Obama's attacks on McCain over Social Security, always a sensitive topic for the elderly may also be hitting home driving seniors into the Democratic column.

    The Fox News/Opinion Dynamics survey was conducted on October 28-29 and surveyed 924 likely voters nationwide. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 points."

  5. I'm a fool for pointing out that you and your far right whack-job intellectually challenged 'the-south-will-rise-again' buddies can't agree on how to spin this, but you've been on here publicly posting that you think McCain is well in contention?

    What does that make you?

    The answer would be: a fucking moron. I can hardly wait until Tuesday night when I'm going to start a thread naming all you idiots who were braying and belching about how McCain was right in this thing.

    It will take a miracle for McCain to win. Is it possible? Sure it is. Is it probable? Only an idiot like you would say that.

    It's one thing to be losing and taking it like a man, it's another to act as you and your ilk have been acting.
