This is weird: Battleground Polls Show Stunning Shift To Obama
Barack Obama has opened up significant leads in virtually every key battleground state, according to multiple polls released Wednesday. The size of the shift towards the Democratic nominee may indeed be historic.
"It is difficult to find a modern competitive presidential race that has swung so dramatically, so quickly and so sharply this late in the campaign," says Peter Brown of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. "In the last 20 days, Sen. Barack Obama has gone from seven points down to eight points up in Florida, while widening his leads to eight points in Ohio and 15 points in Pennsylvania."
The latest Quinnipiac polls show Obama crossing the 50 percent threshold in all three of those states:
Florida: 51 - 43
Ohio: 50 - 42
Pennsylvania: 54 - 39
I cannot believe my eyes!
Is the world finally growing wise?
I had a turkey and brie sandwich for lunch.
I want Jesse's sandwich.
I had another Lean Cuisine. Whee.
Farkin' stress-induced weight gain.
It wasn't all that. And I ate it too fast and am now kind of nervous about my upcoming Fancy Meeting, so. Meh.
I am having leftover steak i made w/ a balsamic reduction + roasted cauliflower and potato (and garlic) and an heirloom tomato on a mesclun/arugula mix. I had it yesterday also and it was shockingly unsatisfactory. The steak was too tough. But I guess another day of marinating in the sauce plus a couple of minutes in the microwave did the trick. It is delicioso!
I'll be having a turkey club sandwich at lunch - which was pre-ordered since I have to attend a firm lunch meeting.
I am having an eek-busy morning doing everything annoying from transcribing a windy blather off voicemail to taking 12 Liter bottles of wine to the wine cellar in the basement to setting up a conference call for a depo.
Sheesh.
oh steak also had parmesan butter on it. It should have been no fail from the get go! But I the cut was tougher than I expected and I didn't cook it long enough.

That sounds incredible!
I'm still annoyed at myself for spending $1.50 on a single heirloom tomato at the farmers' market the other week, and then not eating it before it went bad (the next day).
Most polls taken together now have him solidly up 5-6%.
www.electoral-vote.com now gives Obama Ohio and Florida, among others, and 338 electoral votes overall to McCain's 185.
Hey. What if Palin is BRILLIANT tonight?
Do you think the four horsemen will be hotties?
