Sounds like a great and a bomb in a bull church. You must have a very spacious building in which you hold services.

Back on topic, looks like things are trending McCains way. This was a much bleaker picture for Repubs just two weeks ago:

http://www.electoral-vote.com/

Three months out and after almost a year of Obama love from the media, it's this close and trending McCain's way.

Obama is in danger in that it's hard to get back people that once thought of voting for you but now say they would not. They had their flirtation and it's difficult to regain that "lovin feeling."

Well, as much as I'd like to, I think we'll have to let Barbara face the consequences of her own decisions. It's all a part of growing up. Soon, she'll realize that idealistic BS is worthless and that cynicism is the way to go.

Default Evolving Electoral Map

The electoral map, if you believe Karl, is shifting toward McCain right now, with McCain picking up eleven over a week ago. More significantly, the swing states are shifting toward McCain.



I also noticed the one state where Obama's behind by more than thirty. A full five points worse-off than any other state. sigh.
