Going into tonight's debate, the Gallup poll has Obama with an 8 pt lead 50-42. It seems that the VP debate really did nothing overall to affect the race. McCain seems to need a victory tonight to start eating into a lead Obama has had for the last 3 weeks in the polls.

8 years ago today, Gore led Bush 51-40%.

8 years ago today, Gore led Bush 51-40%.

Tex - I'm not sure where you got that number from but going into the first debate back in 2000 (Oct 3) per Gallup, Gore was up 8% but then 3 days afterwards they were tied in their poll. Going into debate #2 on 10/11 Gore was up 5% but then Bush was up in the next days by 2%. The 3rd debate on 10/17 was a dead heat but Bush was up 4% right after it.

It's obvious that Bush benefitted greatly from the debates and really used them as a launching pad for his election that year. After each debate, Bush gained ground or put distance between him and Gore.

McCain is not doing that as he is not a clearly better debater than Obama is as compared to how Bush was to Gore.

While Bush did comeback from a big deficit in the polls in the last month, McCain isn't having the same kind of comeback at all. Bush made the most of his opportunities and made up ground while McCain is not finding the openings against Obama as is evident in the 10 pt lead Obama has as of today 51-41%.

What if John McCain were a former president of the Harvard Law Review?

What if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of his graduating class?

What if McCain were still married to the first woman he said "I do" to?

What if Obama were the candidate who left his first wife after she no longer measured up to his standards?

What if Michelle Obama were a wife who not only became addicted to pain killers, but acquired them illegally through her charitable organization?

What if Cindy McCain graduated from Harvard?

What if Obama were a member of the Keating-5?

What if McCain were a charismatic, eloquent speaker?


PS: What if Barack Obama had an unwed, pregnant teenage daughter....

First, that would be astounding, considering how young they are and second, they wouldn't be pregnant long, because Barack doesn't want them punished with a baby if they make a mistake.

Obama: 'Lipstick on a pig'

Amie Parnes reports from Lebanon, VA:

Obama poked fun of McCain and Palin's new "change" mantra.

"You can put lipstick on a pig," he said as the crowd cheered. "It's still a pig."

"You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called change. It's still gonna stink."

"We've had enough of the same old thing."

The crowd apparently took the "lipstick" line as a reference to Palin, who described the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull in a single word: "lipstick."

Yeah, we can stick a fork in McCain/Palin.

They are done. Intelligence finally wins over low IQ wal-mart shoppers (Bush supporters). Too bad it took a total financial meltdown for the majority to wake up to the disaster called the republican party.

Gosh, thanks for the heads up on the dumb Wal-Mart shoppers. I am going to buy a case of smokes and buy a few votes.

In your view, why exactly is the Republican party a disaster?

Going into the 3rd and final debate Obama is up by 7pts 50-43 in the Gallup Poll. This lead was 11 pts just a few days ago. Is McCain starting to make up ground? He's going to need a very solid performance tonight in the debate and hope he can catch Obama off-guard and make him slip up.

Yeah I have seen this email too. Its over the top insulting. Truly, typical liberal bullshit. Telling us were racists. Then telling us how to think.

If it just took the smartest guy to be president, the guy with the best GPA why not put a college professor in there every 4 years.

This is insulting on so many levels its quite sick actually.

p.s. I was a teenage father.

p.s. this isnt directed at you necessarily because i happen to know you didnt write it.

You know by belittling the opinion of the "lefts", you're calling them dumb. You dont have to actually say the words to mean the same thing.
