Even Florida? Could it be a Landslide?

The NewYorkTimes is reporting that Obama/Biden have pulled ahead in the polls by 3 - 8 points! This is amazing. The most disturbing quote in the article was this one:

"Anecdotally, though, Mr. Obama seems to have made some headway. At Christina’s, a family restaurant in downtown New Port Richey, the red leather stools at the counter held both Republicans tried-and-true, and Republicans, like Chris Hart, 48, who had begun to sour on Mr. McCain.

“Every time you turn around, he flips,” Mr. Hart said. A front-desk clerk at a local Y.M.C.A, he said he was also motivated by his need for health insurance, which had recently forced him to buy antibiotics at pet stores because it was cheaper than the pharmacy."

The Bush/McShame policies are a disgrace!

FiveThirtyEight polls: nation looking bluer and bluer. As to why, read this article about the difference between the ground campaigns of the Dems and repugs. It's illuminating. Here's the concluding point:

"You could take every McCain volunteer we’ve seen doing actual work in the entire trip, over six states, and it would add up to the same as Obama’s single Thornton, CO office. Or his single Durango, CO office. These ground campaigns bear no relationship to each other."
