1. LOL, yeah, heard that one. He went on to say something I had wondered about,
you know how they keep talking about Barack not blowing McCain out of the water. Like he said if McCain is the comfortable choice, the best know, the less risky, how come he can't get over 45%. Who should be the most worried.

10. This is the argument that I've been making every since the GE began...

Why aren't the M$M asking why McSame--with all of his 'experience,' 'foreign policy credentials,' and knowledge--beating Obama? This happened during the primaries. They have all this so-called "experience," and yet they allowed some unknown state senator from IL with only 2 years in the U.S. Senate, who is "unqualified," as they say, beat them? Regardless of how "close" the race is, if it is true that McSame is more qualified and is right on all of the issues, shouldn't he be beating Obama by double-digits?

This guy cannot seem to break 42% or 43%. Why?

It's McSame who has all the problems and many of us have been hammering away at this point. It is HE who is problematic, can't attract the Hispanic vote even though he co-wrote the Immigration bill that he now says that he would vote against. He is the one who cannot get the women vote, though the M$M keeps hammering away at how Obama is in trouble with women. He is the one who cannot get the black vote. NO CANDIDATE CAN WIN WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF THIS IMPORTANT CONSTITUENCY, regardless of what the racist, corporatists say. The black vote IS critical!! Obama is also doing quite well with Independents and is doing better with white men than Gore or Kerry.

Once again, it is McSame who has the problems, not Obama!!

4. You know, that's an excellent point . . .

. . . he really is extremely creepy, in a dirty old man sort of way. Zero charisma - - in fact, he has negative charisma. He rarely smiles, he grits his teeth constantly, and he DOES NOT LOOK HAPPY TO BE HERE. Fine with me!

Remember the SNL skit where he surprised Amy Poehler (I think it was her) in the shower? That's uncomfortably close to how he actually comes across . . . and it's great for all of us.
:)

7. Chuck is the "Star in Waiting" The New Yorker sees him as the next MTP moderator in '09 or 2010.
Best Numbers cruncher in the Game,though!

9. Chuck Todd is weird....
I know a lot of people who like him. But there is something weird about the guy? Ever since his days on CSPAN, I suspected him. I think the guy is a total Neocon Wingnut just waiting for an opening at Faux News. I said the same thing about Bill Hemner just before he jumped ship at CNN and went to Faux. You could tell Hemner was an O'Reilly wanna-be. He was a knuckle-'draggin mouth-breather just waiting for a "Chance" to be with his heros at Faux. I dont know... just IMHO.

12. Well, he's right not to trust daily tracking polls
because they change quicker than McCain's policy positions (the ones he can remember, anyway).
