Right now I'm less worried about the polls being wrong than I'm about the GOP outright cheating.

I can't wait for Wednesday and the coming purity of the Democratic Party.   ::)

You're getting to be as bad as those you despise gleek.  ;) :)

I've seen/heard/read enough over the past week that I now think it won't be close. A repudiation of the right is at hand. Let's just hope the Democrats use their power wisely or 2010 will look like 1994.

We've had unbelievable early voting response in GA.  Fully 1/3rd of registered voters have already voted, and someplace I saw where Obama has at ~49% whereas McCain is closer to ~40%.  Bob Barr and other 3rd party candidates are doing well here collectively, I guess.

I value and have faith in the sampling methods of pre-election polling, but I find it hard to imagine that this early voting doesn't represent a valid sample of GA voters.

Therefore, Blader Industries, Inc. is going out on a limb and calling GA for Obama.

If GA actually goes for Obama, then I find it hard to believe that this won't be a huge landslide, as we do not favor your uppity negroes down here worse than anywhere else, except maybe Mississippi.

I've been following a interesting rumor that South Carolina might be a WTF just happened state for the Republicans as well.

Down here in Texas I walked into our polling place and when I looked at the ballet there were no options to vote Dem. So I asked the people WTF, where are all the Dem cantidates? They lead me into the mens room where there was one machine.

And it was broke. I *feces* you not.

The wife threw her vote away for Barry Hussein last week. I'll be wasting mine tomorrow. I believe I might write in Sid Haig. We'll see. Regardless, I feel confident that Utah will remain red.
