Obama has reached 51% of the vote in the new CNN/Opinion Research poll . He leads in every national tracking poll today. He also got a very encouraging result in Virginia from SurveyUSA (Obama 51%, McCain 45%) and ABC/Wash Post (Obama 49%, McCain 46%). If Obama wants to lockdown Virginia, he must do better than 28% among white men (ABC/Wash Post) and close McCain's twenty-point advantage with military veterans. I suggest bringing out all those retired generals that were on display at the Democratic National Convention. Winning Virginia would almost ...

From under the snake’s belly
Cold Fury —
... nakedly statist Congress in American history. Socialism doesn’t work. It never has, and it never will. It leads to stagnant economies, high unemployment, less freedom, less innovation and ingenuity, and regress instead of progress. It is anti-American and inhuman. And the Democrats are all for it. They unblushingly insist we trundle blithely and blindly on down the dead-end street they’ve steered us onto. It’s simply mind-boggling, really. And when you consider how many of us they’ve duped into believing their hogwash , it becomes pretty damned unnerving.
