This race has moved outside the 'believeability' range for it to be stolen this time...
The public won't be fooled into believing McCain closed the gap in less than 3 weeks and eked out a victory.

The polls continue to trend in favor of Obama, which McCain will have to reverse.

1. I'm feelin real good, but we gotta get out the vote, drive people to
the polls, and monitor the polls. If the rethugs can find a way, they will steal this thing, even for McCain.

2. Did you notice all the Republican hacks tonight talking about
McCain closing with five point sin the last week? I guess they are hoping to get it within stealing distance.

4. And They Say the "Bradley Effect" Will Cause a Red Shift of 6%
which, by a singular coincidence, is just the amount that McAin't would need to win, a 6% shift in ALL the swing states.

3. The meme will be then to challenge the voters & the results - all that "voter fraud" dontcha know.
That's what they're busy setting up for.

5. At this point I have to think the light from Believability would take 100 million
years to reach us.

I'm pretty sure I lifed that joke from "Roseanne". That was a damn good show, for a while.

6. The race is over.
The job now is to get this nation back on track for the American people.

The sooner we start this the sooner we get the mindset moving in unison to put this country back together.

Obama and the Democratic party now run this house, and they better do it right, or we will find ourselves in the wilderness in four years, just like the pukes.

9. My hard core Republican friends
are all voting against McCain, and the congress will go super majority.

All I'm saying is don't waste a minute, don't get caught up in a lot of petty bullshit, and get to work now.

We can't afford to go the route of the conservatives in 2000, and wallow in victory while ignoring the problems and alienating the the populace.

Show results and keep the momentum, the nation can't take much more political bullshit.

8. Howard Fineman said this AM that top Repubs met at an upscale restaurant last night and ...
... they all basically have given up on the McCain/Palin ticket.

Fineman went on to say that Rudy Giuliani announced he was 'busy' and would not attend the Debate tonight, even though it is being held in N.Y.

I'd say that is an indication that the brass ring is out of reach and the Repubs know it... all that is left to do is to distance themselves as much as possible from McCain and Palin before the election.
