Five battleground states.....OH, FL, MO, PA, IN.......are either tied or have McCain with a slight lead. FOXX polling.

Early voter turn show a 48 Obama lead to 47 McCain. 40% of the vote has been in early voting. Estimate voter turn out to be some 140-150m Americans (65-70%) will vote in this Presidential election.

According to Newt Grinrich......much of the 40% early voter were second time voters.....meaning little of the new registration had turned out.

My county has about 160K registered voters. 41,000 voted early.

FL is a jumb ball at this point. Obama looks strong in the Miami Dade area. McCain controls the rest of the state.

One DEM law suit filed and then pulled. Was against the REP party for using poll watchers to challenge voters. State Sectretary set up a hot line to report such. Also the judge that case was filed in is staying up tomorrow to listen to any other such complaints.

Pretty frilious lawsuit. Law is anyone in line by 7PM on the 4th will vote. Either regular ballot or provisional. DEM were saying that the
REP poll watcher would challenge a voter and slow the process up.
But it doesnot fly with the 7PM law.

Going to be an interesting day and evening tomorrow.

And Palin???????????? A Comedian was able to Fool her by claiming he is Sarkozy!!!!!! Just imagine this person wiht the "Codes" Any Hillybillies will be able to Fool her and making her do stupied stuff which can lead toward real catasrophies for the entire country!

Considering that Palin had yahoo account hacked by the son of a DEM politician....then info placed on the internet.......including all thier family phone numbers.....I am surprised that only one fake phone call got thru.

Don't worry, Dude.....with the nuclear code football.....comes a high security phone line......I don't that even Sarkozy could get the number to it.

Indyfella: What you interprete as a snide remark, I view as a factual statement. I view much of your comments as snide... so I guess we can call it even.


Sorry Indy, a lot of your comments ARE snide ( have a look at your one about Obama's daughters just for one small example)

What I said above was in reaction to a comment of yours that WASN'T snide. I don't go in for snide much but if I do then SORRY!!! At least I engage in the arguments instead of dismissing them or doing vomit emotes like Conrad.

Now...why don't you answer some of the points?

Hot_Single_Dude: Read his Issues Indy..... Clean Coal energy ..... Obama


A large amount of our energy production is presently with emission coal plants.....so basically Obama is going to either close them down or going to force them to go to clean coal.

Since we are speaking of energy. Picked this little dittie up from the
WSJ a few days ago. Remember I said much of the Pickens plan was impractical?

After he went public, Pickens got $2b in investor money. Today 3/4 have withdrawn thier investments. Pickens has been paying them back with cash. Presently he has between $400-$500m left from the
earlier investments.

It did not seem to be caused by the financial meltdown....according to this article....rather people just began to ask a lot of questions and answers did not seem to match up.

There goes your windmills, Dude.

Frivolous you may think....but not as bad as the Republican nonsense in Ohio and the shameless dumping of voters off the register in Colorado.

Sure anyone in line may vote....but how long will they be in line. How long are the lines in prosperous white suburbs....bet you get to vote there in 10 or 15 minutes tops......while in poor areas you queue for hours???? sounds like a third world country.....or an attempt to fix it so poor people don't vote. After all they might actually vote Democrat.....and that might lead to the end of the world so they have to be protected from themselves!!!

Lines are long because the turn out is heavy, Fallingman. That one library polling place where I voted in week of early voting had 7,000 voters.

They balance out the systems pretty well among the precints......depending of the size of the location and the number in the precint registries.

Where they are running into problems.....is where they set up only 1 early voting location in a county......mostly in OH. I suspect they did that because of the 1 day registery and 1 day vote program. They had some 4-6 hours waits there. Admittedly to long.

But they will keep the vote going till the last in the line has voted....
so to me was a pretty frilious lawsuit. Some of these prencits will not close till 9-10PM tomorrow.....there is always a late rush at about
6:30PM. Mostly of the Presidentials that I worked....never home before
12PM.

Long lines mean that poorly motivated voters won't stay or won't come
Long lines mean that people who can't afford to take the day off work won't...poor people, Dem voters probably.
Long line simply mean the State, or States isn't or aren't doing their job!

Elections are important. Why can't the US run them as if it were a modern Western democracy and not a poor third world country???

So there are 70 million unemployed welfare scroungers about to vote out the Bush empire?

Could be I suppose......in Republican dreamland.

Your only saving grace Indy is that I don't think you believe a word of this crap.

Others, I am not so sure about!

for the person. Attending an Obama rally.....is like going to a free
rock concert.

Fallingman: From the Orlando Sentinel:

While the state tallied the early voting across the state Monday morning, local supervisors of elections reported how early votes went in their counties. More than 45 percent of Seminole County's 262,078 voters cast their ballot before Election Day and that number could increase as the elections office continues tabulating absentee ballots. Seminole's contingent of Democrats, a virtually nonexistent force in recent elections, came out in mass. The breakdown of the early votes was 44 percent Democrats, 30 percent Republicans in a county where only a third of voters are registered Democrats.

Looks good Dude!!!!!

Carry on writing White Papers Tom



Here is where you are missing it, Fallingman. McCain split the DEMs again with the Palin VP selection. So even someone says on a exit polls....I am a DEM....does not mean they voted DEM or for Obama.
The beuaty of the secret ballot.

The Sentinel title pages this morning had a State map......3/4 RED for McCain....1/4 Blue for Obama. Including the I-4 cooridoor.

Florida hinges on the I-4 cooridoor, I live in the I-4 cooridoor.....if it goes McCain.....Florida is his. The rest of the State balances out the Miami Dade Blue. Sorry fellows......just the way it is.

Thanks for another beginners guide to democracy!

I know that Florida divides into Red and Blue bits same as every other state. McCain needs more votes to win! He might get them but then he might not and right now he is behind.

As for Palin....I think the selection of her was a great boon to the Democrats. It helped heal the Hillary rift and it reminded them of the nasty vindictive nature of a large chunk of the Republican party. It motivates the Democrat vote at least as much as the Republican one, undermines McCain's independent voter credentials and even alienates the more thinking wing of the Republicans.

Split the Dems with Palin?????? Ha!
