yes, it is early. and no, most people aren't paying attention to the presidential race right now. and yes, polls are
very often wrong, and we shouldn't rely on them too much.
but this is still BAD NEWS for The BarackStar!
Gallup Daily: Race Tied at 44%
(http://media.gallup.com/poll/graphs/080801DailyUpdateGraph1_plmrtfc.gif)
PRINCETON, NJ -- According to Gallup Poll Daily tracking from July 29-31, John McCain and Barack Obama are now tied at 44% in the preferences of national registered voters.
This is not much different from the results reported in Gallup Poll Daily tracking on Thursday, when the two were nearly tied with 45% for Obama and 44% for McCain. However, it is a substantial turnaround from earlier this week when Obama held a statistically significant lead coming off his high-profile trip to Europe, Afghanistan, and the Middle East.
Obama and McCain were closely matched in each of the three nights of interviewing included in today's result, with neither candidate ahead by more than three percentage points. This suggests that the recent surge in voter support for Obama has truly subsided.
The contrast between Obama's recent advantage over McCain (ranging from six to nine points) and today's result is particularly notable because this is McCain's strongest showing in over a month. The last time Gallup found the race exactly tied was in late June. By contrast, in the weeks just prior to Obama's overseas trip, he had led the race by an average of four points.

You know, I think maybe John McCain and I think alike here.
It's very possible Barry "Goldwater" Obama's already shot his wad.
I'm not saying he has, but it looks possible he has.

What more does he have to say ? To do ? Name a veep, sure. But how thrilling will that be ? Especially if he picks the loser Tim Kaine (sorry assed gov of Virginia and the only person less qualified than himself which is what he needs so as to not be shown up) !
The DEM convention will be nothing more than a circle jerk and what happens outside may

something must be happening in the electorate for him to be losing ground after his magnificent obamagasmic
world tour. and after the non-stop fawning coverage from the MSM he got during the extended primary season . . .

He shit on injured soldiers
He shit on the Western Wall
He shit on the American people by demonstating that euros were more worthy of his time
He shit on the voters by bringing up race in Germany
He lied and backtacked artlessly all the while
He made a fool of himself with O-Force One
He shit on America with his asinine resistance to drilling
He attempted to backtrack on Iraq (pissed libs off badly with that and fooled NO mushy middlers)
Hell, he made a fool of himself at every turn
He's at the point that he'll not be able to open his mouth without screwing something up.

he's been doing most of that for months, and it hasn't hurt him.

He's getting worse tot he point that even the press is poking him with a stick about it

Rush Limbaugh echoed something today I said a few days ago. If Obama Hussein isn't up 10 points, he's losing in the real world.

true dat...
of course the libropundits counter that 'America is now so polarized by ChimpyMcBushitler that the old rules no longer apply. they also argue that the sky is green and that Cindy McKinney is the typical amerikhanstan mom.

About 10%-12% is the number of people who will lie and say they are voting for Obama Hussein just so they won't be called a racist bigot. If Hussein isn't polling in double digit leads, he is half-white/half-brown toast.

Yeah, the "Bradley Effect"...you could even see that in play in this year's Democrat Party primaries - all the "undecideds" would mysteriously break to Hillary Clinton on election day. It's usually even more pronounced among "moderates".
As for Barack Hussein Obama, he's still unelectable. If the DNC had a single clue, they would dump him at the convention.

He totally has Frank. He's going to be DESTROYED in the debates. This guy can't talk his way out of a wet paper bag unless he's got 10 speech writers coaching him.
He just flopped on his oil drilling stance, and you can bet McCain is going to drive that one home. He's been getting torn about over his stance on troops in Iraq. This huge media orgasm over his trip around the world didn't get a thing for him. And unless he can come up with pictures of McCain with little chinese boys, there can't be any thing else that he can bring to the game. No experience, no new message, no consistency. All the chips are in McCains court, and I honestly doubt he's to dumb to throw them all away.
