Obama as POTUS ?

The Republican National Committee goes after Obama. The Political Ad is quite good, like the choppy waters and how Obama has no record. Very effective but to late folks, so to late. B plus for effort RNC.

McCain WON - Liberal - NIGHTMARE

Newsweek: A what if of history, a McCain win, the Liberal Newsweek would have a fit. If McCain Campaign would put this on their web site and send out through the post, one thing that really annoys Conservative voters is the Liberal Press.

How McCain can Win - Dick Morris

New York Post: Dick Morris; President Clinton's political guru; gives advice to the McCain Campaign. In essence three steps to win over Obama, Obama is a tax hiker, his relationship with racist ex Pastor and that USA would become the 1970s sick man of Europe. These are all excellent ideas but face one problem, its to late, if McCain has come out attacking before the the Democratic Race was over it might have been effective, but he waited to long, plus he does not want to be called a racist, the Jail release Ad still haunts the 88 Campaign of Bush 41. The Republicans should try to make the American voter concerned about a out of control Democratic Congress. Thus the McCain Campaign is finished, its the Congress that the Conservatives should try to keep some influence in, other wise two to four years of another Great Society 11.

The Sunday Poll

The Sunday Poll folks, 26/10/08.

Zogby: As Drudge and Zogby point out in one day polling the 08 race is very close, how many voters lie is a very interesting question, the one day sample of Zogby has the following, Obama 49% - McCain 46%. Is the McCain message on the economy working or have the elite media gone over board, are the voters going to give the Obama Administration all they want, a Democratic President and a powerful Congress. The three day tracking poll for the race has Obama ahead by 5%.

The Obama Transition Part Four

The New York Times: Reports on the transition period between Bush 43 and the next President. The article points out the paths the two candidates have chosen, but lets be honest, its going to be Obama. The Liberal Times reports that Obama is thinking of placing ex Senator Tom Daschle as his Chief of Staff, the Times of London reported that Senators Kerry could be Secretary of State and Senator Clinton would take the Health Post in a Obama Cabinet. If a President Elect Obama goes down this road he will be making the same mistakes that another President did, that being Clinton. The best first term team was the Reagan Team, they pushed the President's Agenda through, it was when the team left in the second term that Reagan had problems, Iran - Contra. A President Obama cant have that many senators around, they all think they should be President, Obama does not have a record lets be honest, is really going argue Foreign Policy with Kerry, Health Policy with Clinton. This is novel idea, what about Bill Clinton for Chief of Staff, allow him to correct the mistakes of his first transition. Also it would make the Clintons happy, also Obama could keep any eye on both of them, lets be honest Obama will be the new rock star, that will ruffle the Clinton feathers. Also if Obama wins re - election the chance of the Clintons going back to the White House are zero. If that is a to bold of move for Obama what about James Baker, Reagan's First Chief of Staff and Treasury Secretary and Secretary of State.

Biden on Obama by McCain

Its taken the McCain Campaign time to use the Biden remarks against Obama. Its an effective Ad but to late. The polls are what they are, its going to be Obama in that Oval Office, not good idea to undermine the next President. As a political Ad great but far to late, far to late.

Weekend Polls

Lets have a look at some of the polls folks. There are many, but here is a selection that I think have the 08 race about right.

Gallup: Reports that their Likely Voter Poll; the methodology based on those that have voted and will vote; finds a 5% lead for Obama. The Poll finds the following, Obama 50% - McCain 45%. As my prediction is a six percent win for Obama this polls tracks with this view, also those polls that Obama in double digits lead I don't believe. Lets all say two words New Hampshire. A five to six point win for Obama would be good and would give him a mandate to push through his policies. Also it has to be asked now many voters are telling the pollsters what they think the right answer is but might vote in a different manner in ballot box.

IBD/TIPP: Reports a 4% lead for Obama over McCain. The poll finds the following, Obama 46% - McCain 42%. Why do I think Obama will not win in double digits, the spread the wealth comment has not helped, the concern about his national security record, this connections to a domestic Marxist - anarchist terrorist, his racist ex pastor, the voter fraud of ACORN. Also lets be honest you cant discount the Bradley Effect in till you see some real votes. Lets hope the Bradley Effect in wrong, this writer would rather Obama win by double digits than have the Bradley Effect. I think the Obama Campaign would be happy with a five to six point win and a Democratic Congress.
