At what point do you think McCain's polling numbers start magically rising?
I know a lot of you here are expecting this to happen.

I have a feeling that after this debate, the poll numbers will start to even out again and be near dead-even coming into election day.

Polls need to be plausibly in range to steal an election.

This is my fear.

Am I paranoid?

9. If MSM calls it a "tie",then no,I think the polls will remain the same
But if one or the other does better,then somebody will go up,and the other will stay the same.

10. If McCain sticks to his game plan of not talking about the economy
I expect McCains numbers to continue to plummett to a point of no return.

I am hoping he loses his temper and he reacts to Obama very aggressively.

11. no, you're realistic
and a victim of the 2000 and 2004 elections. We all are and if we're NOT paranoid, we're not paying attention.

16. They will stay the same or decline
The polls will show Obama with a healthy lead going into the election. If anything, the McCain camp, or those working on McCain's behalf, will fix the votes. Then there will be a large discrepancy between exit polls and results. I'd say it would be another 2000, but this time we won't back down. We'll have enough to prove the corruption beyond a reasonable doubt. And the stakes will be too high for people to say they want closure instead of an Obama win.
