Also, I know of no Jewish grandmother that talks politics who doesn’t mention education, which then sidetracks her into talking about her grandkids studying to be doctors and lawyers at Harvard and Yale and Brandeis.

Is that anything like “location, location, location”?

– the “silent majority” moderate, even liberal, closet Bush supporters who have not publicized their inclination out of fear of reprisals from business associates and neighbors. These are especially prominent among middle-aged Jews in the blue states– the kind of Lieberman centrists whom the Mikey/Howie/Jimmuh party has pushed out;

– that plurality of voters who are still undecided and who will almost certainly make up their minds during the last 48 hours. These types are not political junkies or ideologues, and they and vote almost always on gut issues concerning either their pocketbook or the candidates’ “character”– both of which should favor Bush.

Increasingly, this election campaign’s resembling the Calif governor race: Bustamante vs Schwarzenegger. Two days before the election, The LA Times reported these two were tied.

Busta-who? My point exactly.

I thought that just the fleah covering his robot/android skull was removed. I know that it talked later, buty I clearly saw a metallic skull-looking thing poking out of his robe where ahead should be.

I wonder why Mr. Simon chose to promote this piece. It was moderately funny, but, eh.

I can’t wait for Team America though.

I sometimes wonder at people’s memories. When the MSM starts jerking the pollsters around a bit to generate the stories they want to print to support the meme du jour it’s as if it has never happened before. In two hours the major networks will be telling us not to believe our lying eyes, Kerry won definitively. Tomorrow the polls (paid for by the MSM) will show “Kerry closing the gap” again. Very few people will note that McGovern was “closing the gap” as was Mondale and Dukakis. We’re not going to see anymore honest polling until five days before the election.Until then everything will be aimed at suppressing the Rep turnout. It’s failed before and it will fail again.

We need to lighten up a bit. Perhaps we hold a quick pool on how many times Kerry says “failed” vs how many times W says “liberal”. I’ll say 25 failed and 30 liberal. Winner determined by transcript count.

The polls now have Bush within 1 in PA and 3 in Michigan and 4 ahead in Iowa.

It can make you crazy.

I don’t know who will win, but I don’t think Kerry will win big. Pulling 1 ahead on a tracking poll does not mean a lot, for either of them. I mean what has changed in two days that would take it down from the 6 point lead Bush had in that same tracking poll? And what is more Kerry does not get 50,ever.

I don’t know what will happen and it is possible that Kerry will win but I smell a rat with these polls. I do not know one person who has changed their opinions on this race in the last month, much less the last three days.

Who knows? The WaPo tracking poll may have Bush up tomorrow and the Rasmussen may have him down. BTW Rasmussen has not had Kerry up over Bush since August.

Only time will tell.
