DON'T BELIEVE THE POLLS ... Obama supporters act as if the polls are a true reflection of what's going to happen on November 4th. Obama has consistently tried to win each of his elections prior to a single vote being cast, by eliminating his opponenets on technicalities, or having the DNC dump Hillary, or by giving the false impression that he already won, before the election has even taken place. When you don't have an actual record to run on ... and all you can do is point out problems, and blame others, as Obama has, you have to rely on gimmicks that have nothing to do with your actual ability to lead ... like accusations of racism ad nauseam ... like early voting ...busing and indoctrinating homeless people on the way to the polls ... photo ops with big crowds ... spending 4 to 1 on advertising ... having the media in the tank ... having Hollywood in the tank, having Acorn in the tank ... and, having 98% of all black voters in the tank. But, all of these things are nothing more than a fabricated perception. They have nothing to do with a person's experience, or ability to lead. They just reveal a candidate who will say, or do anything to get elected. That's why the Obamabots are so worried. That's why Obama is telling his disciples not to get over confident. That's why the Obama campaign tries real hard to make it look like Obama has already won ... just like they did in the run against Hillary in the primaries. I happen to believe there are legions of people who are going to vote for McCain on November 4th ... unlike the 'in your face' Obama supporters, November 4th is when the McCain supporters will express themselves. A vote for Obama is a vote for voter fraud, corrupt media, and a road to socialism. Keep America safe and strong, elect McCain/Palin on November 4th. PERCEPTION IS NOT NECESSARILY REALITY … DON’T BELIEVE THE POLLS …

The war in iraq is only one of several hot button issues (immigration reform and the economy are also top of mind for many voters). Thanks for the feedback.

I think it would be interesting to see of the blogs chosen as conservative were actually neoconservative. It would be more interesting if you had used pro-peace blogs vs. pro-war blogs, rather than liberal and conservative.

It surprises me that Ron Pauls %'s are so low, given that his supporters flood both conservative and liberal blogs with rants, heartfelt endorsements and the like. People are starting to call them Ron Paul spammers. In any case, once again the net is changing the game of politics.

While he got a bump in September, based on recent data we're seeing, he has not been successful in building, let alone sustaining, any momentum post-announcement. If trends continue, I'd anticipate Fred's unique visitor counts in October dropping 60-70%.

Is his IMDB profile referring traffic? Fred is basically a joke at his point... maybe it's just people coming to check out the worst campaign in recent memory.
