Brand new polls don’t factor in yesterday’s debate:
- GW/BattleGround = Obama +4
- Hotline = Obama +1
- Ras = Obama +6
- Reuters/Zogby = Obama +2
Every single poll shows momentum towards McCain. This is all Palin and this is all the character attacks. Americans do not want a terrorist sympathizer in the White House and more importantly they may begin doubting Obama’s veracity and character, which will help the economic arguments. People are starting to doubt the media portrayal of Obama.
And although I do not believe McCain soundly beat Obama last night, I think he did well enough to gain a few more points. This thing could be real tight by the end of the weak.
Keep the focus on Obama. Keep attacking. 27 days is plenty of time. Palin Power !!!!

We need something NEW.
bantamwait (Diary) Wednesday, October 8th at 9:07AM EST (link)Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright are like Gennifer Flowers–by this time, Obama has been innoculated on them. Is Ayers the only dangerous radical Obama has been hanging with? (And am I the only person who finds it unfortunate that the connection is the Annenberg Foundation–one of the country’s great *conservative *philanthropists?)
I can only conclude that the abject failure to turn up NEW revelations is a result of lazy or shoddy opposition research. You can’t tell me that there’s nothing there! We need a game-changer, and this ain’t it.

mooniefins Wednesday, October 8th at 9:25AM EST (link)If looking for something new, how about this. Yes Ayers is a terrible person and an admitted terrorist. That might get play for the next week. Look further into what BO and Ayers were actually trying to accomplish together. Trying to get school aged children to become social activists. That would scare the hell out of millions of parents. That sheds some light into what kind of education policy BO would take. I also think Mac needs to make the connection between what kind of people BO associates with and what kind off people will be in his cabinet, supreme court, etc.
He needs to show WHY this should matter.
Ras is significant because it is
eburke (Diary) Wednesday, October 8th at 10:19AM EST (link)a 3 day tracking poll. Mathematically that means that to get a 2 point one day move means that the day that dropped off and the one that was added had a 6 point differential.
The $64 question is whether this reflects actual movement or is just a statistical aberation that caught opposite sides of the MOE. So, what happens over the next 2 days will tell a lot as to whether the new, aggressive tone is gaining traction.
Having been in the group that hung on until election day in 2006 hoping/praying that the polls were just reflecting the usual MSM bias, I’m trying to continue to recognize the depths to which the MSM will plunge to annoint the Annointed One while not being pollyanish about where we’re at in the real world.

itsonlywords (Diary) Wednesday, October 8th at 11:40AM EST (link)Everyone I know in the real (as opposed to virtual) world did not know about Ayers until Palin started talking about him. I’m guessing that they also don’t know about Rezko, or Rev. Wrong or Odinga or any of Obama’s other questionable alliances. They probably don’t know about his support of BAIPA or his views on teaching kindergarten children about the ways HIV is transmitted. No one knows anything about him because the press has given him a pass. But more importantly, they don’t even know that they don’t know anything.
The McCain campaign needs to pick up something new to attack every couple of days, and keep reminding people about the old ones until Obama is just one big questionable question mark. Just keep pounding away with a sledge hammer.

On the other hand, there are so many new topics that Sarah can talk about:
These items should be RUN SIMULTANEOUSLY UNTIL NOVEMBER 4. Sarah, the PitBull, has so many choices.
And all previous issues including Ayers are STILL IN. Obama has not yet provided a logical explanation to each of these hottest issues.
We can even replay

DSA is a sister to Communist Party USA.

Well, maybe, maybe not, time will tell
Finrod (Diary) Wednesday, October 8th at 10:37PM EST (link)It’s possible for that 2pt gain for McCain in Rasmussen to be not as significant as it might seem. Thanks to rounding, it’s possible for example that Obama went from 51.7 to 51.4 and McCain went from 44.3 to 44.6– after rounding that would look like 52-44 => 51-45 thus a 2 point gain is really only a 0.6 point gain.
Then again, it could actually be 52.3 to 50.7 and 43.6 to 45.4 and McCain could have gained 3.4 points. We’ll see how the next few days go, and that’ll tell us as much as anything; if it stays Obama +6 or shrinks, then that’s the start of a trend; if Obama goes back +7 or more, then it was random variation.
Let’s get down to brass tacks here. How much for the ape?

Once it was with the foundation, the individual contributions were made by a board. The Chicago Annanberg Challenge was SUPPOSED to improve education in Chicago schools. Do you THINK that the board of a national charitable board would be onboard for THAT?

There are other character and judgement issues coming to the fore now. Obama’s extremist-Muslim outreach meeting in September. His over-the-cliff tax plan which will hurt any couple making more than $50k in retirement. Etcettera, etcettera.
Now that Obama has bought two 30-minute spots on NBC and ABC (awaiting CBS and FOX) for just under $1 million per, will Senator McCain follow suit with Gover Palin?
He needs to end this laying out his own economic recovery plan and future for our country. Strong, steady and experienced ’til the end.

Voters in 1992 knew that there was a recession back in the summer of 1991. But the repetition of that message had a cumulative effect on listeners. Eventually, GHW Bush got tired of talking about the recession and tried to change the subject. His silence on the recession was perceived as consent.
BHO must either continue to answer the charge that his political career was launched by America-hating traitor Whit Ayres or he must consent to that charge.

Eyriq Sunday, October 12th at 10:35AM EST (link)Is this really something we should be happy about? McCain is smearing a congressman that he has said he “respects”. He will do anything to get elected and that is repugnant and is just another obvious flaw in McCain. The saying goes “lesser of two evils”, and in this election the choice is not so obvious as one would assume.
If for the party to win this election is it really worth the price we are paying in dignity and honor? Or how about the principles we are giving up when we plug our noses and pull the lever for McCain? I’m telling you, it’s just not worth it.

teamzero Sunday, October 12th at 12:23PM EST (link)RedState co-founder Joshua Trevino writes on his blog that he can’t bring himself to vote for the Republican ticket: In the end, I couldn’t do it….
When your own founder can’t vote for McCain because of the lies, no one else will either…I feel this is the beggining of the end of the great GOP party I have supported for the last 32 years. I find myself ashamed of the way my beloved party is acting. I can only attribute this to the same thing I blame everything on. The new generation. Our Party elders from 50 years ago would have never stooped so low as this new age, From Trevino, Jeff Frederick R-Va. I am really ashamed and disappointed and downright hurt.

The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.

OBAMA MEMOIRS by Ayers

September 18, 2008 © Jack Cashill, [Part 1of 3]
“I picture the street coming alive, awakening from the fury of winter, stirred from the chilly spring night by cold glimmers of sunlight angling through the city.” Bill Ayers, Fugitive Days. http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/10/whowrotedreamsfrommyfathe1.html
“Night now fell in midafternoon, especially when the snowstorms rolled in, boundless prairie storms that set the sky close to the ground, the city lights reflected against the clouds.” Barack Obama, Dreams From My Father.

My rules of the road for primary season.
Rule #1: Vote for YOUR first choice in the primaries
Rule #2: Vote for the R in the general.
Rule #3: Don’t let anyone convince you to violate Rule #1 or Rule #2
Rule #4: When in a center-right argument, reaffirm Rules #1-#3–it will help us all to get along better.
Rule #5: If you are using the language of the left, you probably aren’t furthering conservativism
Rule #6: The priority is issues first, candidates second, and supporters third. Nobody is bigger than the issues. Conversely, if you spend your time focusing on supporters, you are wasting everyone’s time.
STOP THE MADNESS!
A reduction in the rate of spending increases is NOT a cut!
In-state tuition for illegals is NOT amnesty!
Requiring someone to pay their medical bills is NOT an individual mandate!
Reducing tax rates is NOT a tax increase!
Despite Horrific Economic News
Swamp_Yankee (Diary) Sunday, October 12th at 4:03PM EST (link)Folks, McCain is hanging in there. Oddly, all the polls are at the same place, about McCain six points down. Given the usually pro-Democrat bias in polls, I’ll factor in 2 points. McCain is about four points down.
Only one President in history has won an election when his party was in office when a major economic decline happened, just one.
I’m not a McCain fan, but give him a break. This campaign has a shot.
What about ODINGA!?!? by LuvUSA
LuvUSA Sunday, October 12th at 4:27PM EST (link)I can only pray that the story ObamaNation writer Jerome Corsi was working on will come out -THIS WEEK! I watched an 8min. YouTube clip- under ODINGA; Kenya’s Killing Fields- and Obama is practically in bed with this guy- and recently! Like alot of us- Im amazed at how this Socialist Radical- could even be on the Ballot– but Im ready to die for our Country if I have to.
Obama IS in bed with Odinga
izoneguy (Diary) Sunday, October 12th at 4:36PM EST (link)Obama and Odinga fathers worked together in the 60′s Kenya government.
Look in my diary for more stuff.

Smear?
ILLINOIS_CONSERV (Diary) Sunday, October 12th at 11:43PM EST (link)Smearing is intentionally telling a lie that will cast dispersion on another. Telling the truth is NOT a smear. It is also not “dirty politics” Listen, if BHO had one isolated incident of associating with someone of ill repute then I could understand BHO and his campaign expressing outrage. But when there is a laundry list of people that BHO calls friends and advisors including: convicts (Rezko), Racist preachers who hate America and white people in general (Wright, Meeks, Pfleger), admitted terrorists who have planted bombs in this country that have killed people (Ayers), a personal advisor that in their previous job as CEO at Fannie Mae have helped create the economic mess we are in now (Raines), and has come from a cesspool that is Illinois politics, then I think he has a helluva lot of explaining to do. And he can’t. Which is why he cries foul. He is so slimy from his own friendships and alliances, there is now way anyone can smear him. He has done it to himself.

Rod_Patrick (Diary) Monday, October 13th at 8:18AM EST (link)I hate this KKK of yours. Democrat Senator Byrd may get angry with us.
KKK is already a trademark for those hidden racists in the tank of Obama.
KKK is no longer for white Democrat people. Barack Obama (a Malcom X fan) has also created his own version of black KKK. Both black and white KKK are now preaching and recruiting inside the Democratic Party.
To be member of Black and White KKK, you must vote Obama first.
