1. I think the economy is a huge reason Obama is ahead
Gore did get the majority of votes in 2000, but he ran on a very good economy. However, enough people (not me) thought Bush was more likeable than Gore that Bush was able to steal the election.

My point is that Obama is way more likeable than McCain so some of Obama's lead is due to his personality.

2. Buchanan & sister
Why would you take anything this whacko or sister Bay says, to have any connection to reality?

3. But the market crashed, ultimately, because of Deregulation.. which McCain spent a career advocating

So.... McCain is losing because his "chickens are coming home to roost" so to speak.


That's called karma.

6. Chris just asked Rachel if it would be impossible for McCain to win a debate in this economic situat
Rachel said "He doesn't have to be losing this badly! The way you campaign matters...the way you conduct yourself matters...McCain has run a HORRIBLE campaign!"


THANK you, Rachel.
