The New York Times: A great article that points out that the West Wing was doing the 08 race in 2006. And lets be honest the West Wing had better writing, will it come down Nevada again as in the series, that would be to close! Article of the Day.

New Poll - Fox News
Fox News: Reports that 08 race has gotten closer, Obama 47% - McCain 44%. Thus another poll that has the the race at 3% lead for Obama. The weekend polls should give us a good idea by how much Obama will win on Tuesday. As the Presidential race is over it will be interesting to see if the American Voter will give Obama a majority in the Congress. It could be argued that this year we could see split ticket voting, Obama for President and Republicans for Congress, it worked well for the Clinton Presidency. The early Exit Polls should be interesting, but be warned Kerry in 2004 was leading in those before the Republican vote came in later in the day.
Closing the Deal ?
Fox News: Reports on the thirty minute political ad by Obama last night, a split result on how effective Obama was at closing the deal with the American People. I wonder about this strategy, Obama is out spending McCain in every state, after while people just turn off, its wall to wall Obama, it can become irritating after a while, thus in a odd way the McCain message might be getting through, that Senator Obama is a tax hiker who will appease the enemies of the USA.
That Magic 3% of the 08 Race
IBD/TIPP: Reports on its new tracking poll result. Obama is ahead by 3%. As stated in previous post, both Gallup and Rasmussen also have the same result. Lets see if the Obama info commercial can add a few points to his lead going in to the weekend. The Poll found the following, Obama 47% - McCain 44%. The economic attack by McCain on Obama came to late, the American voter has decided on change, they have given Obama a pass on his odd connections and his aim to spread the wealth from the rich to the poor. Lets hope its a quick victory on Tuesday, don't need another 2000 or 2004. Need a weekend break before thinking about the Obama Cabinet and 2012 race.
Whom is Who?
BBC News: Reports on the departure of the Tenth Doctor, Mr David Tennant, he has been a great Time Lord, the best compliment I can give is that he is my joint favourite Doctor with Mr Peter Davison. Thus the next question is whom is the next WHO?
