So why on earth is John McCain polling at 40-45%?

Over three quarters of Americans think this country is on the wrong track:
The CNN/Opinion Research Corp. Poll showed that 24 percent have a positive outlook for the country, while 76 percent say things are on the wrong track.
It is the lowest number on record since 1980 and the third time in four decades that the number has dropped so low.
Recent CNN/Opinion Research Corp. polling has shown a steady drop in the country's mood. In April 2007, 51 percent said things in the country were going badly. A year later, 70 percent reiterated that position.
The poll questioned 1,041 adult Americans by telephone July 27-29, 2008. The margin of error was plus or minus 3 percentage points.
George W. Bush's approval ratings are only slightly better than the number of Americans who think we're headed in the right direction, at 30%. But with John McCain making very clear that he represents more Bush war policy, more Bushonomics, and more of the same, what are the 10% who think we're on the wrong track but are planning to vote for John McCain anyway thinking?

I suspect that Obama's
I suspect that Obama's support is much higher than indicated by the polls. For one thing, many of the people who support him have cell phones and no land lines at all. When they see a number they don't recognize on their phones, they won't answer. So many people who support Obama simply aren't being polled because they are technologically with it.
Another possibility is that the poll numbers aren't being accurately reported because the corporatocracy wants to set the stage for another stolen election...Nah, that's too much of a crackpot conspiracy theory.

Yes, the cell phone analogy
Theres a huge invisible Obama faction that won't play political circus. They just vote.
Hillary Clinton was a powerful force--more powerful then McCain--and the hidden Obama forces (must be a mix of independents and silent majority that never vote, just came out to take a stand against Nazi Bush and Cheney) pushed Obama clean out in front.
It is good that McCain still appears to be a viable contender, because it will keep the Dems alert.

How About This Idea
White middle class can't vote for an empty suit black leftist.
When one runs for president, asshole,
I won't, just as I didn't vote for a psychopathic drugstore cowboy, who ran for president so he could have an excuse to kill people.
Maybe
the reason McCain is doing so well in the polls is because the american people just cannot stomach having such an extreme leftist like Obama in office. McCain is much more in the center than Obama and this is what people want. Notice how Barack has been moving toward the center lately? He's not in a centrist, he just knows that this is the only way to get elected and he knows that his extreme ideals must be hidden if he is going to stand a chance....Also, I like the way the polls are messed up when McCain's in the lead but there's nothing wrong when Obama's leading. It's an Obamanation.
Doing so well? Even with
Doing so well? Even with the MSM loading the questions in its polls to skew the polls toward McCain, he's a good 10 points behind.

It could also be
that the american people dont want to vote for someone who promises to raise their taxes.
It could also be reply
only taxes that would be raised are those on folks making stupid money. from your comment i don't thing you make $200,000 so what's the problem? did you get your cut from enron? you have stock in exxon?
I think that taxpayers in
I think that taxpayers in this country resent paying all the taxes while the non-achievers and losers that don't pay income taxes receive all the benefits such as food stamps, housing subsidies, education grants, etc. Nothing worse than standing in line at a grocery store while the losers in front of you with 4 stepping stone children and 2 buggies full of high priced groceries pays for their groceries with their government food stamp card while you have to scrape together whatever you have to feed your family. And never do they turn around and say thank you to the person that actually makes it possible for them to sit on their ass at home and upload nits rather than working to pay for their food. Achievers would be more prone to accept tax increase if everyone paid the same percentage of their income in taxes. Better yet, the Fair Tax is the way to go. Then you wouldn't have to worry about politicians raising your taxes every election
FairTax.org
Better yet, the Fair Tax is the way to go.
Nope.
So you scrape money together for food and shop at a place where you encounter other individuals making food stamp purchases you resent and you support the fair tax.
That's rich.
The UNfair tax
is the biggest scam yet in the Repub campaign to redistribute wealth even further to the rich. The wealthy will spend their money in Cannes and Cancun where the unfair tax doesn't touch them or just sock it away until they can buy everything that's left for pennies ion the dollar, while working Americans have to pay the freight out of what little the corporations are willing to part with for their labor.
Answer me one question, if you can:
This redistribution of wealth you refer to, where does it come from? The Government doesn't earn or create wealth.

the redistribution of wealth
comes from us, the working population, and flows to the rich and the super-rich. The right wing complains of any tax increase on the top as redistribution of wealth. It is the same flowing up as it is down.
Well, you must earn in the top 20% of all earners.
Seeing as how they are the ones paying most of the taxes.
when i talk about the top
I'm talking about the top 2% Those multi millionaires who do the least to make the most. They are the ones who saved the most under Bush and will do so under McCain if hell freezes over and he gets elected.
As to the top 20% paying most of the taxes... Sure they do, they make most of the money. It's called an income tax for a reason.
Don't forget the other bums who have jobs.
Don't forget the "economic stimulators" that refuse to support a prosperous society, because theres nothing appearently "in it" for them.
The non-achievers and losers that don't pay income taxes receive all the benefits such as ,
-- Daddy Warbucks inheritence, that he got from Nazi bank accounts, Oil scams of public properties, etc., and passes on to his no-account, clueless offspring--enough to cover a country full of your so-called "lice-covered" disenfranchised.
--Business write-offs of business write-offs of public funds purloined.

These Polls are FAKE
I am not fooled by these fake polls. Maybe the so-called educated people-in-the-know believe this crap, but anyone who's not wet behind the ears or has thoroughly familiarized themselves with the underhanded juvenile shenanigans of the Republican party when it comes to sheer unadulterated lying to the American people about anything wouldn't even consider believing these polls (esp polls and votes). Not only because they are NOT representative of how many people are unhappy about the current administration and the economy, they don't reflect any of the sentiments of other polls . This is particularly laughable in light of CNN's complete "outing" of themselves as far as "who's their daddy" after their anti-coverage of Dennis Kucinichs articles of impeachment on July 25, 08.
Not only did CNN NOT give balanced coverage of this historical event concerning the gravest concerns known to mankind, they had some twit stand up and openly laugh at Dennis and the whole event in an unmatchable condescending tone. Even their opening defies known standards of belittlement and condescension of the American public and Democratic lawmakers. "You might have thought there was big news on Capitol Hill today...." In other words if you thought this was real news you were mistaken. CNN rather than giving objective coverage went out of its way to convince people that "those people who really know anything" saw the whole situation as a big joke with no substance, just Kabuki theater. This coverage was complete with ooooos and awwwws and open laughing and complete ridicule of the event.
This not only is not how news is suppose to be presented by true journalists and true news media, but CNN is actually making no pretense that they intend to lead the American people's thinking with contemptuously childish games of complete dismissal and ridicule found most often on the playgrounds of elementary schools. Even if one is behind the Bush administration, which CNN has proved beyond a shadow of a doubt, this reaction is not natural. It represents an attitude of a person or persons who are openly and dramatically staging an attempt to have others view someone or something in a light of stupidity and unworthy of true consideration.
The Republicans that manipulate the information and the attitudes of Americans, openly at this point, know that FOX 's authority as being balanced and unbiased is a well known and exposed false front of propaganda. However, most people and many informed liberals have trusted CNN. This coverage of CNN concerning impeachment is the ultimate acid test and CNN has proved it is really the disguised servant of propaganda. Any poll from CNN is obviously conducted to serve its master, if not just an out and out lie.
I don't know if
these polls are out and out lies. Your comments about how news is supposed to be presented and manipulation are correct. It would be more useable if each time they publish these results they would also present more examples of previous results. What have the numbers typically looked like during the ups as well as the downs?
It's funny because even CNN
It's funny because even CNN knows that the dems are spineless cowards, they know Kookcinich is simply pulling a stunt that everyone knows will lead to nothing. What have they done since 2006? Let's see, they've named a couple of post offices and they abused and shamed their office to falsely smear a private citizen for speaking hid mind on the radio. That's about it. So yeah, it's funny.

Polls
I think these polls are crap. How can you take a poll of only a little over 1,000 people and decide that this is how the majority of Americans feel. That's what I call propaganda B.S..
Well, they can't....
It is possible, but these pollsters can't correctly model voter sympathies. The last several elections were completely blown for the polls. Only Zagby got close in 2006 and 2004. It was a shock to everyone that voting was so lopsided, that was not predicted even as the polling places opened. I live in another country but come in contact with American tourists by the thousands every week, tourists on cruise ships who traditionally are older, white, middle and upper middle class, the very people who would not be union members, workers, be struggling financially. These are the ones that McSame is taking for granted. Yet the talk and gossip is so one sided even the foreign tour guides, who normally couldn't care less about US politics...(they all know it is corrupt) are even talking about how much these people make fun of Bush and McSame. I have, personally, yet to hear of support for McSame. The street says Obama in 08 regardless of how hard the MSM is pushing McSame, in step with their ownership. The 4-12 %lead is misleading, real voters seem to be pretty solidly backing away from the white house and bush's 3rd term.
actually....
Actually it all has to do with basic statistical analysis. If you poll just 1,500 people, who make up a fair cross section of America, you'll get a fairly accurate result of the total population within +/- of 3%.
I forget the exact break down..... but basically, if you poll only 100 people you get a huge error, if you ask 1500 people you get that magical +/- 3%, however if you poll 10,000 people your accuracy only slightly increases, but requires polling 10X more people.
Basically polls are just mild indicators...that mean nothing unless one of the candidates jumps out with a 10-15%(or more) lead.
By mrtoadAugust 4, 2008 - 10:16am
These polls make assumption about their samples. My perception is these assumptions are not always verified and/or valid and as a consequence the margins of error misrepresent the statistic precision.
That's even before you get to inappropriate and inconsistent data collection and dubious analysis. They are about as persuasive as a Petroleum Institute study on crude oil's ability to improve water fowl hygiene.
"Basically polls are just mild indicators...that mean nothing unless one of the candidates jumps out with a 10-15%(or more) lead."
At which point the media moves even further away from policy issues and rackets up the character questions concerning the individual with the large lead.

You didn't hear? Oblahma
You didn't hear? Oblahma says he'd drill offshore now. He's for drilling after he was against it.
And libs, go ahead and compare Oblahma's flip to McCain's too, I welcome it, but just remember that gas went up 2 dollars a gallon in between McCain's positions on the issue, for Oblahma, about a quarter.
Thanks for confirming

Where is the oil
Obama said he would work with Republicans to form a bipartisan consensus. He said that he may do some things he wouldn't necessarily want, but he would do them for the good of the country.
The Republicans for the last 8 years have been my way or the highway, you know, "stay the course". They have forgotten how to compromise. Any compromise is called a "flip-flop".
The funny thing about McCain's plan to drill offshore is when the question is asked, "Where offshore?"
McCain leaves out steps.
First, he says we will stay in a peaceful Iraq for 100 years. He forgot to say how it gets peaceful.
Second, he says we need to drill offshore. He forgot the part about finding the oil first.
When he says these things, I am reminded that he graduated 5th from the bottom out of a graduating class of 899 Cadets.
By AuburnDonAugust 3, 2008 - 6:09pm
You are so right. I think the plan we're on just needs to be tweeked. Let's get out the notes from Cheney's Energy task force. There were probably some really great ideas in there that just didn't get tried because the liberal media and socialists in Congress would have ruined 'em.
I'm think now that the surge has worked. We and our Iraqi partners can start getting some oil out of the area to the south and west of Tikrit somewhat.
What do you think?
I don't suppose one of you elist Bueller's could post for AbsoluteDumb the Iraqi Oil field maps Judicial Watch obtained?
Shame on Republicans
Republicans are such ignorant assholes. They believe the surge worked. In 2004, there were 1.4 million Christians living in Iraq, now there are less than 700,000. Where did they go? Where are they now?
Read the Constitution of Iraq. This is what our soldiers died for:
Article (2):
1st — Islam is the official religion of the state and is a basic source of legislation:
(a) No law can be passed that contradicts the undisputed rules of Islam.
2nd — This constitution guarantees the Islamic identity of the majority of the Iraqi people and the full religious rights for all individuals and the freedom of creed and religious practices.
Article (3): Iraq is a multiethnic, multi-religious and multi-sect country. It is part of the Islamic world and its Arab people are part of the Arab nation.
When they say, "multiethnic, multi-religious and multi-sect" and "full religious rights" they are only talking about Islam. No other religion is protected by this constitution. They are a strictly Islamic country.
Republicans are fighting to create a fundamentalist Islamic state and are so God damned STUPID, they don't even know it.
The group that has suffered in Iraq the most are the Iraq Christians. It's disgusting.
And then, stupid, stupid Republicans think that a country that has decimated there own Christian population would ever be "friends" with us. It would be laughable if it weren't so tragic.
GET THIS REPUBLICAN IDIOTS, IRAQ IS NOT AND WILL NEVER BE OUR FRIEND. THEY ARE A FUNDAMENTALIST ISLAMIC COUNTRY AND WILL BE ANOTHER TALIBAN ONCE WE LEAVE. IT'S WRITTEN INTO THEIR CONSTITUTION.
We know what they want. They told us. As soon as we leave, they will band together and slaughter the rest of their Christians. You can see it coming from 10,000 miles away.
I wonder which coin
Obama's face will be on someday. Maybe the quarter.
Wow, talk about counting
Wow, talk about counting your chickens before they are hatched!
If Oblahma is elected he will bring back a worse version of Carter's economy, and with more double didgit inflation, who knows, maybe he'd end up on the 50,000 dollar bill! Just think, an Oblahma bill could buy a loaf of bread, as long as you have a few hours to stand in line for it.
(No subject)
By tropicaltoadAugust 3, 2008 - 7:11pm
Damn Obama for doubling the nation debt and creating that new entitlement! If he hadn't run for president we wouldn't be heading for stagflation.
"a worse version of Carter's economy"
I must concede your right in part. I do think that if Obama is elected we will seen an energy crisis at the end of a protracted and unnecessary war. I not sure well see the kind of price controls we saw during the OPEC embargo but we sure are a lot more exposed this time around - as a result of moving away from Carter's energy policy.
"Just think, an Oblahma bill could buy a loaf of bread, as long as you have a few hours to stand in line for it."
You really aren't paying any attention to the world food situation are you?
It will happen no matter who
It will happen no matter who is president because Bush screwed us so badly. The only thing is that McCain will make matters worse. Obama will at least try to get us out of the hole, instead of continuing to dig.

Polls are just one more way to harvest money.
And the nets and papers like them because the public is attracted to any kind of contest.
Not too dissimilar from weathermen; I predict there's a 30% chance of showers overnight.
It is always about the money.
I think
that Obama will be put on the one dollar bill actually.
Yeah, he'd do away with
Yeah, he'd do away with everything George Washington stood for, why not toss him off of the dollar bill too.
Obama and McCain
There are a number of reason.
First, the obvious, Obama is black. That means huge sections of the country will not vote him. Many try to pretend they don't harbor racists feelings by saying, "I would vote for Colin Powell or C. Rice, but I believe it's a crock". Also, by saying he is Muslim, they can pretend black has nothing to do with their decision. "Oh, blacks are OK, I just don't like Muslims", but he isn't Muslim, "Oh, he is to me".
Notice that the right connects Obama to Wright, but no one questions that Obama's Pasteur for 20 years is a Christian. No one has said Wright is a Muslim. Would it make sense that Obama would be Muslim but have a Christian Pasteur for 20 years? Of course not.
Second, he is a Democrat. He believes it's not right for Christians to hate their own gay children. Believe it or not, many Christians simply can't believe that gays come from Christian families. I'm pretty sure they believe gays are either immigrants or a choice or spontaneously appear. They believe people spontaneously appeared, why not gays. Also, he supports women's rights and that people should help and support each other. This is gone from the Republican party
Third, there is the smart thing. There is a deep suspicion in this country of "smart" people. This is why they are called names like geek and nerd. Children have even been assaulted for getting grades that are "too" good. This is why someone like Obama, whose mother was on food stamps and who only paid off his student loans a few years ago is called "elitist". He is smart. That is a strike against him. Anyone smart automatically seems arrogant. Why? Because they are smart.
Even though Bush is the son of a president with millions and is the worst president in history, he is "one of us". McCain, son of an Admiral and grandson of an Admiral, graduated 5th from the bottom from the Navel Academy that he only go into with family connections and married hundreds of millions of dollars and owns 8 homes, is also "one of us". The fact that neither is called an "elitist" is because both are dumb.
Bill Clinton was pretty smart, but he cultivated that fake southern accent that made him sound like "one of us", someone who could fit on "Springer".
Forth, Obama has run a really bad campaign. I watched on the news that 90% of Obama's campaign ads don't mention McCain and 85% of McCain's ads talk only about Obama. As long as the election is only about Obama, he won't win. All the problems in the country and 85% of McCain's ads are about Obama. What a smart campaign.
I remember when Bush won the first time and when he started doing the things he said he would, many people were shocked. McCain says attack Iran, 100 years in Iraq, tax cuts for the rich, limit women's rights, Afghanistan doesn't matter, he isn't joking. McCain's voting record for our GIs is such a disgrace that it's simply unbelievable that Obama hasn't hit him on it. Veterans groups give McCain a rating of 20% and a grade of D- and yet, Obama hasn't spoken up. Obama feels that he doesn't want to "politicize" the troops the way McCain did by saying Obama wouldn't visit wounded troops and McCain in those disgraceful pictures walking around a Baghdad market using our sons and daughters as human shields. What a creep. Yet, by ignoring the troops, Obama doing them a disservice. A terrible one. Speaking up for them is not politicizing them. In a McCain administration, our troops would suffer much more than they have under Bush. For God's sakes, McCain's answer to the housing debacle is, "If you want to keep your home, go get a second job". This from a man with 8 houses. What does that say about him?
Fifth, there is no love affair with Obama and the press. A conservative think tank said the news is 75% negative about Obama and only negative about McCain 50% of the time. The right wing howls the press loves Obama, but that is a smoke screen. By repeating Fox talking points, the press has repeated over and over again, meaningless stories about Wright, Obama's wife, people that live in Obama's senate district, Obama's family. I don't know how many times I have heard, "Everyone knows McCain, but no one knows Obama" even though everyone knows Obama's middle name and almost no one knows McCain's. That made me go look at McCain's past. He five destroyed jets, his hundreds of millions, his divorcing his first wife and why, his extra marital affairs, his temper, his lack of any achievement except through pulled strings and marrying rich. The one thing that constantly gets shoved in our faces is that he is a "great American War Hero". Even though his accomplishment was getting shot down and being tortured. He didn't win a single battle. Go figure.
Finally, these people that will vote for McCain because he is old, white and dumb will never vote for Obama. The best Obama can do is expose McCain for the person he is and they will stay home and not vote at all.
Ahh, I get it, so it's bad
Ahh, I get it, so it's bad for all Christians to judge gays in the same manner (not even true), but it's cool for you to judge all Christians in the same manner. To call all republicans racist for not embracing Oblahma is as stupid as saying every democrat is practicing age discrimination for not supporting McCain. Hypocrite.
Hypocrite????
Where did I say "ALL" Christians? You are so typical.
I was talking about the Bush base in the Republican party. Hate gays has been a central part of the Republican platform for decades. They call themselves evangelicals. The build tier four colleges, the lowest rated in the US. They want to replace science with mysticism, they have devastated our Justice Department. Those Christians.
The ads with two white women has only been used by Republicans once before. That was on Harold Ford. He attended a rally with 10,000 that was sponsored by Playboy magazine, but they made it sound like he lived in the Playboy mansion with white women.
Republicans have run against blacks and gays for decades. Don't pretend otherwise.
You can't handle the truth.
Well that just about sums it
Well that just about sums it up. Sure is a sad reflection on us Americans.
It will continue until he leaves office...
The whole world is collectively waiting
for the Bush nightmare to end.
It wont matter
As soon as McCain wins, the same campaign of smear from the leftist media will start on him and he'll then be the new blame for all the ills of the world just like what happened to Bush.
Don't forget cheney
Are these smears, or telling the truth, How did Iran get started on nuclear technology?

George W. & George H.W. Bush - Living proof that the dumbshit doesn't fall far from the dumbass.
McCain has pissed off the
McCain has pissed off the Hiltons who are big contributors of his, by also comparing Obama to Paris Hilton.
"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." Dwight Eisenhower
McCoin is angering the religious also
For mocking Obama as a messiah. Its blasphemous behavior to mock a person as such, then to demonize the same...
McCain risks hellfire for himself, and for those heathen contards who join in his mockery.
And possibly for all who partake in voting for McCain.
Bajam! If that isn't some heavy fearmongering...or is it?
heheheh?....hmmmmmm??
your all delusional
If Obama were a white male, he would have a chance...
This corporation of a country will not allow this ghettoman to change their new world order.
We have all been brainwashed to believe what this corporation spins to us in the corporate media. We are no longer smart enough to decide for our best interest, we are being told who will win this election...AND MCcAIN WILL WIN.
Not because he is good for the people but because he will continue to work for our corporate nation.
YOU yes YOU, you have 2 choices:
1) get used to it! learn that we are a corporate society now!
2) get active.
Tag your it!
If Oblahma was a white male
If Oblahma was a white male he would have never even been considered for the nomination. He's a junior senator without a single piece of important legislation to his name. If he was a white male, his lack of credentials would have kept him out of the race. This was the affirmative action year for the democrat party, as usual they looked at race and sex first, and credentials second and that is what will cost them their sure thing.
I disagree.
Obama made his mark at the 2000 convention with his One America vision that resonated so resoundingly throughout the party.
And Obama won the nomination because HE'S JUST THAT GOOD. He ran a brilliant campaign. Obama (and his equally brilliant advisors) figured out a winning strategy both on the ground and in cyberspace.
P.S.WHERE'S MY MONEY, WELCHER?!
Wow, you must be pretty
Wow, you must be pretty desperate to supplement your welfare check.
For starters, I never even agreed to your little bet because I know you're a dirty bastard that wouldn't pay anyway. Hey moron, I'll bet you a million dollars that the Giants beat the Patriots in last year's Super Bowl. OH, THEY DID! Now I'm gonna follow you around and call you a welcher because you lost! Where's my money, welcher?
Secondly, even if I did agree to your "bet", I would have won anyway. There is no way to spin saying, "I hate fags. No, really I do, I'm repulsed by homosexuality", into a defense of gays. It is simply not possible.
Finally, even if I would have agreed to the bet and if I would have lost said bet (neither of which is the case), you can't call me a welcher and not give me any opportunity to pay up. What's your name and address motherfucker?

You owe A G $1000. You lost. Your inability to understand the context of the sarcasm does not excuse you from the bet. Nor does your cut and paste job from his post. And the photos from your vacation when you pretended to live in Hawaii do not excuse you either.
Mind your own business
Mind your own business nigger. Fuck, I hate niggers, black people repulse me.
You see how I was defending African Americans there? Yeah, I was defending their rights! I was just saying that I hate you, not black people.
Well if you can't see how I was defending blacks, you just don't understand sarcasm.
I don't A G a dime, he owes me. I don't expect him to pay up though, liberals always go back on their word, they lie all the time. Besides, I don't accept food stamps anyway.
What's the matter fu? Can't find any more pictures to link to?

Pay up and post another picture from Hawaii while your at it.
Does A G owe you for a
Does A G owe you for a blowjob or something? Me paying him won't get you your money. He's a welcher, you swallowed for nothing.
And what is your deal with me living in Hawai'I? I post pictures, you bitch about it, then ask for more pictures. Give it a rest.

Aww you must be sad your vacation is over.
YOU'RE A WELCHER.

You've got A BIG FUCKING MOUTH and no ethics whatsoever.
