is this the end of little johnny? almost certainly.

i got just want i wanted for my birthday: john mccain strapping on his bib and tucking into a big ol’ bowl of shit. today’s q-poll shows huge leads for obama in OH, FL and PA. the rest of us were playing it cool last week, but it looks like gray’s instinct was dead-on.

debate-night pundit commentary notwithstanding, viewers saw obama as the winner by a wide margin, and this week’s polling bears that out, along with reflecting voters’ apparent disgust with mccain’s “suspension” stunt. (the letterman thing probably didn’t help either.) it’s hard to see how the biden-palin debate reverses that dynamic. and don’t forget, voters still have two more opportunities to see mccain, cranky and up past his bedtime, behave like a petulant child as obama debates circles around him.

34 days to go. tick-tock…

    Yeah, I just love how out-of-touch the pundits and spinners painted themselves in their post-debate analysis… the electorate clearly gave Obama the nod and the pundits didn’t.

    At this point the only thing stopping me from uncorking the bubbly right this very moment is the precipitious declines Dems have had in the last two elections:

    The good news here is that this chart is dated August 3… the thin blue line has taken a nice big upswing since then, and with only 34 days left the GOP is rapidly running out of time to make up ground.

    Time will tell, of course. Ohio is proving rather obstinate, even Minnesota might be in play, and I don’t wholly trust Michigan and Virginia (esp. Virginia). But still, things are looking DAMN GOOD right now for the Muslim socialist.
