I enjoy guessing how much gray he's going to have in his hair from day to day. I also enjoy guessing which plastic surgery procedures Biden is going to show up with next.

I have gotten to meet a couple of celebrities that I really admire, and I definitely teared up. I would imagine especially in a crowd with an atmosphere like that at a campaign rally, it would be easy to get emotional. That picture is embarrassing, but I get it. I'd probably cry if I met Obama, too. (But I'm a cryer generally.)

Because the organization is very corrupt in my opinion.

95% of all polling statistics are 75% BS, anyway.

Nor many MANY other women. On our local news last night they had taken a "sampling" of undecided women. Some registered Dems, Some registered Reps and some that were non-partisan. There were 50 women in this focus group. The discussion was about the reasons that they felt Sarah Palin would or would NOT make a good VP. Only TWO of those women said they would not be voting for her (Much to the reporters dismay I might add). The 2 that weren't said they wouldn't because they just couldn't cross party lines. They had been voting Dem their whole lives and weren't going to change now. So 48 out of those 50 women migrated to McCain BECAUSE of Palin. And believe me, they didn't give reasons like "Because she's pretty" or "Because she's a soccer Mom" they listed her policy, her performance and her executive office experience as their reasons. It was kind of Funny because I could tell these were not the responses the reporter wanted. My husband even said "Wow, he doesn't look happy"! And the reporter kept cutting the women off when they'd try to tell their reasons. Anyway, when they were asked "Why, if so many of you support Sarah, is McCain losing in the polls" their response was "He's not, it just looks that way because not everything is being fully reported."

I think the mccain/palin camp underestimated the women of this country.

Maybe it has to do with things like this.. Smeal also said, "On issue after issue after issue, the Obama-Biden ticket stands with us, while McCain has a 26-year voting record in Congress against women's programs and women's rights" Therefore the following groups will support Obama Biden for 2008. Business and Professional Women Feminist Majority Political Action Committee National Association of Social Workers National Congress of Black Women National Organization of Women

Ya, I'm not getting it either, it seems like Obama is up 35pts if you read the articles and separate polls (race, gender, education, states) yet he is only up 5-6 pts with +/- 3.5 pts error margin, to me this says McCain should be happy, everything is against him yet he is basically tied - it still seems to me the McCain will win.
