Tinfoil time: McCain Guarantees Victory
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he can “guarantee” a win on Nov. 4 in a squeaker victory that won’t be clear until late that night.

McCain spoke amid signs of a tightening race, and reports of renewed determination among his staff, which is badly outgunned in both money and manpower.

“I guarantee you that two weeks from now, you will see this has been a very close race, and I believe that I'm going to win it,” McCain told interim "Meet" moderator Tom Brokaw. “We're going to do well in this campaign, my friend. We're going to win it, and it's going to be tight, and we're going to be up late.”

1. If McCain was going to steal it, he wouldn't TELL everyone he was going to steal it.

He's just acting confident. Doing, and don't kill me for saying it, what he should do in this situation. Telling his followers that the race isn't over yet. Calm down.

3. If I hadn't heard Peter King brag about stealing the '04 election months beforehand...
Then I might agree with you. He's not just acting confident. He knows that the fix is in.

2. The headline is misleading
he didn't guarantee a victory, he guaranteed a close election and BELIEVED he would win...
