Fox News: Reports that Senator McCain has moved on his policy on Iraq, he is know supports the Obama plan based on conditions on the ground. This is a savvy move by McCain, he can now support a timetable for Iraq based on the success of the surge. This takes one of the arrows away from Obama. Also this policy moves breaks with a not very popular President, lets see what the polls say at the end of the week.

The World Tour of Obama
The Times: Reports that the World Education of Obama is not helping back in the good old USA. If your running for President of the World, Obama has done a great job, great PR, problem he is running for President of the United States of America. Lets take the first part of the World Tour Iraq, the Obama Policy was to see what he only wanted to see and hear, like a Virgin going in to a brothel and coming out a Virgin. Even the fawning Elite Media though he was speaking nonsense about Iraq. The Iraq Surge has worked, why do you think the Elite Media has not mentioned Iraq that much, its working, if it was going to hell in hand basket the press would be all over the story. Obam in German was even worse, he though he was a combination of Kennedy and Reagan, sorry Senator not yet, the arrogance of the Obama Camp is even getting to the Press, its long time before they election and the Obama Camp should recall that the press have another candidate that they can fall in love with, the ego of the press is more than Obama and his Campaign.
Brown in the Brown Stuff
The Times: Reports that the PM Gordon Brown has been given two months to get the polls up or he is out. All is possible in politics, but PM Brown is to Scottish and Dour. Blair was successful because he was a small c Conservative, you could have seen Blair as leader of the Conservative Party, Brown is Old Labour. The country needs a cheer up moment, can Brown arrange a Royal Wedding that would be good, anything really that will make the people happy and that does not count his resignation.
The Edwards Scandal?
The so called Edwards Scandal has it the TV, Fox was all over it last night, the Liberal Elite Media still has Edwards as a possible VP or Attorney General in a Obama Administration, thus they are being very quiet about the so called scandal, Edwards 's Mistress and Family is out there in the news cycle. Even if not true, would Senator Edwards really have an affair while his wife is ill with cancer, even the Liberal Media would have to run with the story, they cant be seen doing another Bill Clinton. Recall it was Drudge that broke the story while the Elite Media kept it under covers.

No Love, No More Love for Obama
The New Republic: Reports on how the press has fallen out of love with Obama, well some of the press, love can turn to proper investigation of a candidate, yes he still a candidate not POTUS.
MAD MEN
New York Times: Our lucky Colonial cousins have the second season MAD MEN, not fair, when do we get it over here in the UK. Its one of the few things I watch these days, come on BBC get your act together, MAD MEN is one of the best things on the box.
The Polls for Friday
Lets have a look at the polls after the World Tour of Obama.
Here are the Tracking Polls:
Rasmussen: Reports on a bigger lead for Obama, 5 points over Obama. In pure political terms it can be argued this is still even, as stated when Obama is ahead by single digits you have to take in consideration are you being told the truth by the voters. The Poll finds the following, Obama 49% - McCain 44%. If you think of all the fawning press coverage the Senator has had over the past few days, you could argue that the lead should be in the double digits. Obama needs to pick a old gray beard as his VP. The VP has to be older, hawk, and would be nice if he or she had a military background.
Also lets have a look at the Fox Poll:
Fox News: Reports a narrow 1 point lead for Obama. The Poll finds the following, Obama 41% - McCain 40%. One has to ask if the World Tour on the whole was worth the effort. Obama is never going to overtake McCain in the Commander in Chief Test, McCain War Hero, POW in the Vietnam, Maverick in the Republican race. Obama has to stick to Democratic issues, the economy, and other domestic issues. On the whole would give the Obama tour just a C+ grade for politics.
Here are the Tracking Polls:
Gallup: Shows the the Grand Tour of Obama has not really effected this poll. Obama leads but its a narrow lead only two points. The Poll finds the following, Obama 45% - McCain 43%. As stated in previous posts, Obama has to get a bigger lead and he has to keep that lead. Obama will lose the election if he does not get a bigger lead in the polls.
Rasmussen: Reports on a bigger lead for Obama, 5 points over Obama. In pure political terms it can be argued this is still even, as stated when Obama is ahead by single digits you have to take in consideration are you being told the truth by the voters.
