7. No Blue Hair Here.... But I AM Trying To Get Vern Buchanan Thrown Out
OUT OF OFFICE, along with the clone of Katherine "Cruella" Harris, Kathy Dent as Supervisor of Elections!!

This DISTRICT is THE DISTRICT that lost all those votes back in 2006 by which Buchanan CLAIMED victory with a margin of 369 votes, AND where OVER 18,000 votes were lost! He's still ahead and currently has EIGHT (8) lawsuits against him. Over 170 plus lawsuits in the past and STILL he has the audacity to say he's FOR THE PEOPLE!

He's SCUM and so is Kathy Dent... she's nothing more than A SHILL as Supervisor of Elections that is DIRECTLY affecting ME in this state!!!!

8. He can pretty much knock McCain out with the debate this week
If Obama shows he has more command on foreign issues. McCain is in really big trouble

10. great!
Maybe this is why the McCain camp was even more batshit crazy than usual yesterday...I really do think that a Florida win is possible, it's more the election fraud that worries me there.

17. The only thing that could keep him from winning FL is the voting machines & the party machines
that program and service the voting machines.

12. Great news! This could create a sense of momentum for Obama
... and the MSM will be egg-faced if they don't report it as such.

16. Two things about this poll
First of all, the Margin of Error is 4 points. That's a bad poll. When looking at the validity of a poll, you want the lowest number you can possibly get. 4 is pretty high for a political poll.

Secondly? It's still within the margin of error meaning that Obama and McCain are still statistically tied in the state of FL.

I'm not going to celebrate until he's polling beyond the MOE and it's from a valid, reliable poll. This one ain't it. It's possibly a move in the right direction but we can't celebrate yet.

18. C'mon, Florida . . .
Make this happen. Volunteer at your local Obama campaign office. Older Americans are a demographic Obama needs to win and older volunteers need to get out the word to their peers - McCain, with his sugar mama wife, has shown that he is completely out of touch with those his age who depend on Social Security and Medicare.

For retirees and soon-to-be retirees, a McCain administration would mean the privatization of Social Security and the cutting of benefits. He will definitely use the huge national debt to legitimize gutting Social Security and Medicare.

Get out there and tell older people that McCain/Palin are not their friends.
