Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
when the candidates stop talking about pigs and lipstick and start discussing some issues
I'm not holding my breath.
I still think Obama's gonna win, though. I think the polls showing white women "moving" to McCain are largely bullshit & that most of the women polled that way were Republicans this time last year.
You know who actually went to church regularly? The Clintons. Now, maybe Methodists don't count, because they just sit there or whatever, but. No. They can all bite me.
I lived on the same block as that church - we used to call it Our Holy Lady of Law Enforcement due to all the squad cars and black SUVs out front on Sundays.

Yeah, sometimes I ended up going there on Sundays when they were there, because it was more hassle trying to get past, to go to the Bapist church on the next block.
What scares me is that the Republicans don't actually have to win - going by past elections, they can get kind of close and claim it. Guess they play politics the same way they play golf.
For the next month, the Obama campaign's ground focus is on finishing up the stunning gains in voter registration that it and the Democratic Party have made. Since January alone more than 3.5 million new voters have been registered in 17 of the 23 states tracked closely by the Obama campaign where information is available. Three states — Florida, Michigan and North Carolina — have seen increases of more than 400,000 new voters, and 10 more states have recorded new registrations of more than 100,000. Though these numbers include registrants to all parties, in 14 of the states at least half of the new voters are under 35, a key demographic for Obama.

This is what scares me.
I'm not going to worry about polls until a bit more time has passed after the convention. I think women that saw her speech have a reason to "like" Palin, but I think as we learn more about her policies that should subside.

Wow! That's fantastic!
No wonder the Republicans are trying so hard with the voter suppression effort -- like the little old nuns who were turned away from the polls, not enough ballots sent to inner city undermanned polling stations, college students told that if they register to vote, their financial help is in jeopardy, et cetera.
Happy Birthday Trudy!!
