Is the Race Over?

Obama is measuring the drapes in the Oval Office, trying to convince the nation that the election is as good as over and he has won (without being TOO cocky so his supporters will think he's won and stay home)). It is not, and he has not. This might even be bad for him if people who might normally vote for him figure since he has already won, why vote? I hope they do. Hugh Hewitt says, "Gallup 's traditional poll of likely voters is down to 49-47, Obama (a "statistical dead-heat"), with a week to go. As my friend and colleague on the radio, Michael Medved points out, the same Gallup poll had John Kerry and George W. Bush tied at 49% at the same time in 2004. Bush actually pulled in two points higher, and Kerry performed one point weaker. Just more anecdotal evidence that the media is crazy telling you this race is over. It is very much alive and winnable for John McCain." So don't stay home, folks. It's not over until the "fat lady sings." (Just common sense)
