    Sure do. My families both come from Minnesota and it's also Bible Belt (and home to Bob Dylan). Brought the same sentiments to Canada.

    A graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he served as president of the Harvard Law Review, Obama worked as a community organizer and practiced as a civil rights attorney before serving in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004. He taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004.

    All you need to do is have one look at McCain's mom to know he comes from healthy stock.

    McCain may be even in the popular vote but his is getting killed in electoral votes. Losing ground on a daily basis.

    "McCain may be even in the popular vote but his is getting killed in electoral votes. Losing ground on a daily basis."

    Polls show at the moment Obama/Biden 273 McCain/Palin 265

    RealClearPolitics - Electoral Map

    Very close, one swing state changes, even one as small as New Mexico, it could change everything.

    Obama's lead in many states is shrinking. Can he recover?

    HIs strategy of running against Bush seemed to work well in the primaries and of course the true believers buy into it. But, it seems more people are taking a second look at McCain and like what they see.

    Race is tight, the big mo seems to be with the GOP, but of course that can change quickly as well.

    I guess that depends on which polls you take a look at.

    I would agree that McCain is behind in pretty much every electoral map related poll/map/chart. But not that he is losing ground on a daily basis, or that he is getting killed when it comes to the electoral map.

    Here on Rasmussen - which has the race still pretty close in their national poll (46%/ 48% each), they have Obama ahead in the electoral chart but by only 10 or 17 if leaners are included.
    Rasmussen Reports™: The most comprehensive public opinion coverage ever provided for a presidential election.
    John McCain and Barack Obama now each attract 46% of the vote. When "leaners" are included, it’s McCain 48% and Obama 48%.
    Rasmussen Reports™: The most comprehensive public opinion coverage ever provided for a presidential election.

    With the Montana shift, the latest numbers from the Rasmussen Reports Balance of Power Calculator show Obama leading in states with 193 Electoral College votes and McCain ahead in states with 186 Electoral College votes. When “leaners” are included, it’s Obama 264, McCain 247.
    And pretty much ever recent move/change on the Rasmussen electoral chart has been in favor of McCain (by either moving into/further into the GOP camp or moving out of/further out of the Obama camp):

    Rasmussen Reports™: The most comprehensive public opinion coverage ever provided for a presidential election.

    9/08 - MT moves from leans GOP to likely GOP - move towards McCain
    8/22 - TN moves from likely GOP to sage GOP - move towards McCain
    8/22 - ME moves from safe Dem to likely DEM - move away from Obama
    8/22 - LA moves from likely GOP to safe GOP - move towards McCain
    8/22 - CT moves from safe Dem to likely Dem - move away from Obama
    8/22 - SD moves from leans GOP to likely GOP - move towards McCain
    8/22 - OR moves from likely Dem to leans Dem - move away from Obama
    8/22 - CO moves from leans Dem to toss-up - move away from Obama
    8/22 - WI moves from likely Dem to leans Dem - move away from Obama
    8/22 - NC moves from leans GOP to likely GOP - move towards McCain
    8/22 - OH moves from toss-up to leans GOP - move towards McCain
    Their most recent polls only support the move towards McCain:
    Rasmussen Reports™: The most comprehensive public opinion coverage ever provided for a presidential election.
    McCain moves into double digits in Montana:
    John McCain has opened a double digit lead over Barack Obama in Montana.
    Rasmussen Reports™: The most comprehensive public opinion coverage ever provided for a presidential election.
    McCain stretches his lead in Ohio from 4% to 7%:
    The latest Fox News/Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in Ohio, finds John McCain out in front of Barack Obama 51% to 44%
    Rasmussen Reports™: The most comprehensive public opinion coverage ever provided for a presidential election.
    Virginia shifts from in favor of Obama by one point, to a lead of two points for McCain:
    The latest Fox News/Rasmussen Reports telephone in the state shows John McCain with 49% of the vote while Barack Obama earns 47%

    She says she supports small and limited government. But I want to know more about this:

    Palin Aides Defend Billing State for Time at Home

    Al Grillo/Associated Press
    Gov. Sarah Palin and her family live in this home in Wasilla, Alaska. She has often worked from an office in nearby Anchorage rather than in the state capital, Juneau, nearly 600 miles away.

    By MICHAEL LUO and LESLIE WAYNE
    Published: September 9, 2008

    Responding to criticism from Democrats, campaign aides to Gov. Sarah Palin on Tuesday defended her practice of billing Alaska taxpayers for more than 300 nights she spent at home in her first year-and-a-half in office.

    Ms. Palin received a “per diem” expense allowance for 312 nights she spent at her home in Wasilla, The Washington Post reported on Tuesday.

    The $60-a-day allowance is available for state employees when traveling on official state business to cover meals and other sundry expenses. Ms. Palin’s per diems, which included some charges for partial days, totaled $17,059, from Dec. 4, 2006, when she took office, through June 30, 2008, the most recent data available, according to Sharon Leighow, a spokeswoman for the governor’s office. Ms. Palin’s salary is $125,000 a year.

    How shocking. The non-partisan folks investigating the purported Sarah Palin scandal known as “Troopergate” would appear to be Obama supporters.

    Hold the bus there M/M...Shock! She billed the state for stuff she was allowed to bill!

    she billed the state for “lodging” while staying at her own home in Wasilla; the governor’s official home is in Juneau, so technically any nights spent away from there while working entitled her to a hotel per diem. WaPo supplies us with only one sample expense report which includes an item for “lodging - own residence”, but as Jonah Goldberg and David Bernstein note, there’s no amount listed on that line. She simply noted it, almost as if to say “I’m not charging anything because I stayed at my own residence.” The only amount on the line, $60, is for meals and incidentals (M&IE). The money question, then: Did WaPo simply misread her reports, treating amounts for M&IE as though they were amounts for lodging? Remember, they’ve already egregiously misread one financial report of hers, generating a smear that still hasn’t been fully scrubbed away.

    Wow. Thirty-three pages on a political neophyte no dem in their right mind should fear. Headlines (nay quarter-page photos, above the fold) in newspapers around the world. The blogosphere is buzzing.

    Larry King had to separate a panel of four women from a full-on catfight. I'm not going to read through this whole thread -- but ... action dolls?



    In my opinion, the harder the dems try to discount her, the deeper hole they're digging. They need to lay off and focus on the candidates. Yeah, the candidates.

    They don't call this a presidential election for nothing. It's funny as hell to watch them squirm. Doesn't appear professional, let alone presidential.

    Suddenly, Barack isn't so special.

    It's Alaska. Given the weather and the difficulty of travel, she has to board a ferry to get from her home to Juneau, I can she why she is paid to work at her office within her home. It's probably cheaper. Besides, she fired the Govornor's cook and she has requested less in per diem than her predecessor.

    Yep, I think that's why BO is making so many gaffes. He is not the show stopper no mo. And he is nervous.
