"There are 18 days until the election, 18 days ago I was tied with John McCain in the polls."b,121b,121When I got to headquarters today Obama was on the phone. He was talking as serious as I have ever heard him talk. b,121b,121If I hear about anyone acting cocky like this thing won they will be in trouble. b,121b,121You need to work like we are 10 points down in the polls.b,121b,12118 days is an eternity during an election.b,121b,121"There are 18 days until the election, 18 days ago I was tied with John McCain in the polls."b,121b,121He is serious about not taking any thing for granted. Talked about how hard he is working. Doesn't want any one to wake up Nov 5th saying "I wish I had done more".b,121b,121To give you an idea how serious he is in Oregon there are 16 field offices, all with a professional staff. That is tiny liberal Oregon has people working their butts off making sure this thing isn't lost. b,121b,121"There are 18 days until the election, 18 days ago I was tied with John McCain in the polls."

    Fair enough. I'm not so worried any more, though.

    b,121b,121Yeah, this is what I'm saying too. There's a different between being "dangerously complacent" vs "less paranoid."

    Ayers was such a maverick.

    My dad is so stoked that Obama is associated with Ayers. It's probably what is motivating him most to make sure to vote in this election.

    Rolling Stone - b,121Election Already Stolenb,121Investigation by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. b,121and Greg Palast b,12110-17-8b,121 b,121Don't worry about Mickey Mouse or ACORN stealing the election. According to an investigative report out today in Rolling Stone magazine, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Greg Palast, after a year-long investigation, reveal a systematic program of "GOP vote tampering" on a massive scale.b,121b,121b,121- Republican Secretaries of State of swing-state Colorado have quietly purged one in six names from their voter rolls.b,121b,121b,121Over several months, the GOP politicos in Colorado stonewalled every attempt by Rolling Stone to get an answer to the massive purge - ten times the average state's rate of removal.b,121b,121b,121- While Obama dreams of riding to the White House on a wave of new voters, more then 2.7 million have had their registrations REJECTED under new procedures signed into law by George Bush.b,121b,121b,121Kennedy, a voting rights lawyer, charges this is a resurgence of 'Jim Crow' tactics to wrongly block Black and Hispanic voters.b,121b,121b,121- A fired US prosecutor levels new charges - accusing leaders of his own party, Republicans, with criminal acts in an attempt to block legal voters as "fraudulent."b,121b,121b,121- Digging through government records, the Kennedy-Palast team discovered that, in 2004, a GOP scheme called "caging" ultimately took away the rights of 1.1 million voters. The Rolling Stone duo predict that, this November 4, it will be far worse.b,121b,121b,121There's more:b,121b,121b,121- Since the last presidential race, "States used dubious 'list management' rules to scrub at least 10 million voters from their rolls."b,121b,121b,121Among those was Paul Maez of Las Vegas, New Mexico - a victim of an unreported but devastating purge of voters in that state that left as many as one in nine Democrats without a vote. For Maez, the state's purging his registration was particularly shocking - he's the county elections supervisor.b,121b,121b,121The Kennedy-Palast revelations go far beyond the sum of questionably purged voters recently reported by the New York Times.b,121b,121b,121"Republican operatives - the party's elite commandos of bare-knuckle politics," report Kennedy and Palast, under the cover of fighting fraudulent voting, are "systematically disenfranchis[ing] Democrats."b,121b,121b,121The investigators level a deadly serious charge:b,121b,121b,121"If Democrats are to win the 2008 election, they must not simply beat McCain at the polls - they must beat him by a margin that exceeds the level of GOP vote tampering."b,121b,121b,121Block the Vote by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. & Greg Palast in the current issue (#1064) of Rolling Stone. [Media enquiries - Dave Falkenstein, Sunshine Sachs & Assoc, via [email]interviews@gregpalast.com.][/email]b,121b,121b,121Note - Kennedy and Palast are releasing, simultaneously with the Rolling Stone investigative report what they call, the vote-theft 'antidote': a 24-page full-color comic book, Steal Back Your Vote, which can be downloaded or obtained in print from their non-partisan website, StealBackYourVote.org

    b,121b,121But that's just not true. It was 30 days ago according to the RCP average, and that was when John McCain was just dropping out of the RNC/Palin shit.b,121b,121But point taken.
