It's not over until it's over, but I just can't imagine a scenario where McCain pulls this one off. Not without Pennsylvania.
McCain can certainly still win. But some of those states (Iowa, for instance) have been out of play for months.
Hopefully that is the map Obama's campaign is working with too.
I was listening to the tail end of John Zogby on KMOX a while ago and happened across Limbaugh's program. I thought it would be good to listen in-to gain some understanding of where people get their logic. Limbaugh - he was citing the various polls that PJ posts, saying they are getting closer and within a couple %'s. Then he has a theory that new registered voters won't vote. Then he has a theory that people voting for McCain are underpolled because they don't like explaining their vote to liberal pollsters (he may have a point, for many its hard to admit prejudice).
...anyway- listening to Rush is like going into the public restroom thats been stunk up. you try to hold your breath, take care of business then get out - then take a big gulp of air once you've cleared the perimeter.
Rush was actually lucid today - last time I tried to listen during the primaries it was hard to understand his points he was doing his porky pig thing "bbb.ddddeee..llllliberals....ya know,....bbbutt ," But I did manage to gather he hated McCain, in viscerally.
So two questions out of curiousity - are the polls tightening as Limbaugh claims?
And how did Limbaugh rationalize his sudden swing to McCain? (he despised McCain so much, I figure he really really has to have evil terrorist Nancy Pelosi rhetoric against Obama..).
(I'm guessing Limbaugh prefers Obama wins actually ...revive his career much the way Clinton started it. )
