How McCain can pull off a final week upset

I found a very interesting article in today's New York Post, and it gave a very interesting view. It showed three ways in which John McCain can steal the election away from Barack Obama over the final week of the campaign. The first was using the stock market crisis to highlight the tax issue. By using taxes, McCain has a much better chance to improve in the polls, rather then having to argue over other topics such as healthcare. A very controversial number two is bringing up Jeremiah Wright. After the unrudely remarks made by the reverend, who by the way married Barack and Michelle Obama, should be used by McCain to his own advantage. Finally, the article said that McCain must warn voters about the impending socialism in America. Even though this may improve McCain and Palin's ticket in the polls, I still see it as too late to save this election. Barack Obama is far enough ahead in many of the key battleground states. If he wins just one or two of the tossup states on November 4th, he will have punched his ticket into the White House for the next four years.

Wednesday a MUST WIN for McCain

John McCain in my opinion needs to have a very successful debate on Wedneesday. If he lets Barack Obama dominate as he has in the first two debates, and either winning very closely or loosing in the key battleground states, McCain will all but have lost the election. To be honest with you, McCain really does seem like he needs a miricle to win the election. He really needs to be playing chess in those key states, not checkers like he is trying to do now. If the rest of his campaign stays in this mode, McCain will have dug a hole so deep, that he and Sarah Palin can never get out of.

VP Debate. "Coinflip?"

I really need some help choosing a winner. I felt both candidates had strong moments, but they each had weaker ones as well. Personally, I felt Sarah Palin brought up her hockey mom status a few too many times. Joe Biden honestly impressed me. Not known as a great debater, he came out and fired bullets at the McCain/Palin ticket. Palin also I think saved her reputation in this debate. If she came out flat and let Biden walk all over her, there could have been a great chance this election could have been over. The real question is whether Obama or McCain will take the energy from the vice presidential candidates and use that as a means or success on Tuesday. This is really going to be an interesting sight to see.

Debate recap

This weeks debate showed a lot about the candidates, they are really going to swing for the fences. McCain and Obama went back and forth for two hours straight. This can only get better, especially with the vice presidential debate coming up very soon. I would like to hear your opinions on the debate, particularly who you think won and why.

First Post

This whole Sarah PAlin "Pig" bit is being blown way out of proportion. It was just a person expressing his own opinion. Just because it was a celebrity does not make it wrong. Its called the second amendment McCain supporters. No offense but take it easy!
