CNN: Obama's Lead Narrows, Because Of:

[Dinger]

National security, calling it a "3 a.m. moment," connecting it to Russia/Georgia.
Again. Obama is shown talking about "judgement", and schneider (can't stand him) says Obama believes judgement is more important than experience." Something I've heard Clark talk about recently.
CNN is heavy on the veteran/national security thing today, saying it is the reason for Obama's "drop" in the polls.
What's going on here? Do they know (or think they know) Obama has chosen someone who in not a veteran and are hammering away already? We'll see.

1. Yea, I know, I'm listening. LISTEN to Jack! He's got it right!

He reminded wveryone to remember we were all told we weren't patriotic when we disagreed with the Patriot Act, the spying, and the TSA stuff!

2. How is this a winning position for McCain again?

The Russians weren't exactly shaking in their boots over McCain's remarks recently.

4. I Think This Is The Early "October Surprise"

Could be.

3. I wish Obama would have a fast media response team

I mean, Andrea Mitchell does one thing on a legit story, and McCain's people are requesting meetings. The press is not only corporate, but the Repukes keep them closely in line.

5. Obama needs Clark.

7. Couldn't agree more, twg. n/t

6. Isn't this the same group who told us Iraq had WMDs

there was a connection between Sadam and AQ

and that Hillary and Rudy would be the candidates

not a great track record if you ask me

8. I don't agree with CNN often, but it's the same feeling I've had about the tightening race..

Like it or not, people buy that McCain is stronger on security (70+% to 20+% on some recent poll). That's why veep choice is so important this time - it could make a big difference in voter perception and in taking McCain down on the issue.

9. Didn't Bush go back on vacation to Texas?

after having a nice little vacation in China?
