#1 Welcome back to the real word - glad you returned from delusional self-destructive Libertarian Utopia Land.

#2 This is what we call a gut check. I hope everyone does it before they vote.

#3 There have been several "name" flips from Obama's camp to McCain's in the last few days. None in the other direction though. The One's poll numbers appear good, but given the recent defections, how real are those poll numbers?

#4 Those poll numbers are as real as pink elephants!

#5 There have been defections, Aris. Mostly silent, some bloggers that I've read. We won't know for certain until the election, though, which is how it should be. Certainly the trailing daughters are quite angry at Progressive attacks on Miss Bristol and her fiance', and as I checked out their friends' Facebook pages, it seems they aren't the only ones. Trailing daughter #1 has just got confirmation that she is registered to vote in her first election. I grant that my small sample is not conclusive, but these are typically bright middle to upper-middle class kids all heading to university, the ones who should be falling for Obama's call for change.

#6 Quick's statement "But that situation is not one any of you presented." does not ring true. "Situations" like that have been in the back of many voter's minds ever since 9/11. POTUS has a great deal of power for good or ill, most of us know that without presenting it. Quick takes excessive pride in his stubbornness & resistance to outside influence.

#7 Sarah Palin, the mom you wanted to have, will get many rank and file "feminists" who care about the role of women in daily life. On the other hand: Strident leftists, who in the past have taken it upon themselves to speak on "behalf" of all women, will of of continue to parrot the party line. But they will no long speak for the masses.

Sarah Palin exists. That voting block is GONE. THAT is why the leftists HATE her.

Should be "will of course continue to parrot..."
