why did you do that.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 2 October 2008 19:56 (fifteen years ago) link

yeah why are they nose printing dogs? this is a better question.

They started by cleaning the insides of car windows and one thing just led to another.

(CNN) — Sen. John McCain said Thursday that Sen. Barack Obama’s poll numbers are rising as the economy seems to sink “because life isn’t fair.”

“He certainly did nothing for the first few days,” McCain said Thursday on Fox News. “I suspended my campaign, took our ads down, came back to Washington, met with the House folks and got on the phone, and also had face-to-face meetings.”

New CNN/Time/Opinion Research Corp. polls of several key battleground states, released Wednesday, found Obama has made gains across the board — either taking statistically significant leads or erasing McCain advantages — over the past few weeks. And since the financial crisis began in mid-September, Obama has taken and held a lead over McCain in the national CNN poll of polls.

Obama joined McCain in Washington for a meeting with congressional leaders convened by the president. He said afterward was concerned “that when you start interjecting presidential politics into delicate negotiations, you could actually create more problems than less.”

^^ doesn't really need to be said to all assembled, but what the hell, each of things mccain lists are either lies, or were meaningless gestures if not counterproductive

"If we win FL, MO, NC, VA, IN and OH -- all states Republicans have won for decades -- that puts us at 260 electoral votes," the adviser said in an e-mail. "We need to find 10 electoral votes from CO, NV, NM, NH, MN, WI, and PA. Frankly, we have an easier map than Obama. He's on the defense."
lol - easier map than Obama

FL(27): currently leaning Obama
MO(3): currently solidly McCain
NC(15): currently leaning McCain
VA(13): currently leaning Obama
IN(11): currently leaning McCain
OH(20): currently leaning Obama

Right now, they are missing 60 votes that they're depending on, so they really need 70 votes, and they're not going to get them from MN or WI.

MO is Missouri, I think you listed Montana

dmr, Thursday, 2 October 2008 20:53 (fifteen years ago) link

MO is tied and has a lot more than 3 electoral votes

dmr, Thursday, 2 October 2008 20:53 (fifteen years ago) link

dammit I do that all the time

MO(11): currently leaning McCain

i am the small cat (HI DERE), Thursday, 2 October 2008 20:54 (fifteen years ago) link

btw my data comes from here: http://www.pollster.com/

i am the small cat (HI DERE), Thursday, 2 October 2008 20:54 (fifteen years ago) link

MO and IN just moved to the tossup category from lean McCain. And I think you did list MT since MO is not 3 electoral votes.

(I am not considering states tied unless they are actually tied in percentages, just for sake of saying where each state would go if those percentages held and the election was right now.)

i am the small cat (HI DERE), Thursday, 2 October 2008 20:56 (fifteen years ago) link

that was kind of the point of my post is that they are counting on a whole lot of ifs and it's getting worse for them each day

Fulminating Darkness (Kitties!!!), Thursday, 2 October 2008 21:02 (fifteen years ago) link

I know, I was just explicitly spelling it out (hence the "</gabbneb>")

A homeless thug now registered to vote comments: “They picked me up. They seen me walkin’ around. So day said, ‘You wanna vote?’ I said, ‘Yeah, I’ll vote.’ (laughs) Day said, ‘We’ll take you anywhere you want.’ I said, ‘Dat’s cool’…If day say ’sign the ballot,’ just give ‘em and do exactly what they want you to do.’ I mean, hey, dis is America, you know?”

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 2 October 2008 22:51 (fifteen years ago) link

I guess this is kind of the same thing as how I feel about wingnuts.

rogermexico., Thursday, 2 October 2008 22:53 (fifteen years ago) link

Except more racist.

rogermexico., Thursday, 2 October 2008 22:54 (fifteen years ago) link

ireland speaks english (sort of) and has a very low tax rate for businesses who locate there. london has a very low tax rate on financiers so when obama says you need to be taxed more, think london. oil industry executives, dubai has no tax if you locate there and obama wants to institute special taxes. leave hollywood and microsoft execs and google execs and george soros to pay for all the thug thizzle a body can stand.

^^ lol at this comment

my mom says she's moving to the boonies of Ireland (verbatim) if Obama wins. Never mind she's never had a passport in her life nor has any documented work history since the eighties. I'm sure Ireland will be all "Begorrah! :-D" when my mom calls the embassy.

I should mention my mom is batshit crazy.
