1. I predict that we'll have two victories in NH.
Edited on Thu Sep-18-08 07:13 PM by Eric J in MN
Obama will get the electoral votes of NH, and Jeanne Shaheen will get the US Senate seat currently occupied by Sununu.

4. Al Franken is trailing by 2 points. A new Norm Coleman ad...
...portrays Franken as angry.

This is his response (video on top right, above the word "Why"):

3. I think Arkansas is more of a 'lean McCain' than 'solid'
Edited on Thu Sep-18-08 07:44 PM by holboz
We have a Democrat Governor, a Democrat majority in the State legislature. I know we have some hardcore Republican areas but if we can get out the vote, we may be pleasantly surprised. I'm more inclined to say Arkansas is a "leaning McCain" state, not a "solid" McCain.

Just my opinion tho.

7. Michigan has been mismanaged by Democrats for decades.... that's why

The mayor of Detroit is a criminal.... the entire state has been completely mismanaged.

It's an embarrassment to Democrats.

Frankly, it doesn't surprise me that the people of Michigan might be fed up. We haven't earned their vote.



Hell... if McCain would've picked Romney, Michigan would be a red state for sure.



Obama has a lot of work to do to hold on there. The politicians in Michigan with "D" after their name have not helped. Thank God their demographics work strongly in our favor.
