Post by: Busted on October 15, 2008, 03:23:31 PM
According to CNN Virginia is now Leaning Obama  with a 10 point lead....

ND, MT, AR, LA and GA went from Safe McCain to Lean McCain and now with in the Margin of Error...

That is correct.  The only reason I have a landline connection is for dsl. I don't even have a phone hooked up.  Plus all those college kids that still live at home...it's all cell baby.  Obama will win by a landslide unless he majorly messes up tonight.

Obama being up 15% means he is down 5%. He needs to gain at least 30% on McCain to even stand a chance in the actual election!!!

After this joke of a debate is over if he doesn't shoot up another 10 points I'll be shocked.

probably more true than not maybe not 30% but very true i would say your counting on some of the most unreliable voters in any demographic college kids and blacks. Not saying they wont vote but history shows they are not likely to vote.

This is the biggest thing right here.

How many people under 35 have land lines?

I know I don't... nor do any of the people I know around my age.

agree with what you're saying but if he's up 5 to 10percent in battleground states, I think he's fairly safe.  If it's 5% or less, he's in big trouble.

If he wins, it shows one of two things... Either the elections are fixed, or The US is simply racist.

Enough with the racist crap.

There are as many voting for Obama because he's black as there are voting against him because he's black.

i think he makes promises that he wont be able to deliver on and has to ability and charisma to get ppl to buy into the bull shit. Im not a big fan of mccain as ive stated in this thread but he will be better than obama and his utopian views.

I respectfully disagree... I feel that McCain has become a pandering egomaniac in his Presidential bid and has said nothing to make me think he is at all in touch with the American people.

I'm talking about pandering to a group that in 2000 he wouldn't have.

McCain has turned into a right wing neo-con religious nut panderer.

I think he will have a reverse bradly effect.  You are going to get alot of rednecks who tell their friends FUCK OBAMA and when they get in those boots they are going to vote for him casue they realize mcCain is not  good choice//

My Uncle is a redneck republican and he said "im gonna vote for that n......r "

DO you know how the senate works? Major, Minority< Fillabuster etc..?

Obamas Party has been in the minority for 2 years and hes been on a campaign since... the republicans pushed though shit THEY wanted and he had no choice but to vote against it...

so what your basically saying is that obama is playing the politics game and is just like every other politician out there? Thats a far cry from his not a government insider that he portrays himself to be.

The sort of people (Old white people) who will not vote for Obama because of his skin color are much more likely to vote than people who will vote for him just because of his skin color.

Yes, I read that recently and never thought about it before, but a great point.

Landlines are for old folks really.
