I think Obama is not going to win in Florida. And he seems to be getting Michigan. SO it's up to Ohio now and its 20 electoral votes. It's practically a must because the other swing states seem to be favoring McCain, and historically have been Republican. If Obama gets Ohio, he will be the next president of the United States. Independents in Ohio seemed to have liked Obama more in the debates (CNN tracked).
So go out and vote OHIO!!! unless you are Republican.
JoyDiv007...what kind of volunteer work is there to do?
and what kind of feedback have you been getting while you're out canvassing? and what kind of demographics are you talking to?
My prediction for Election day.
A little gutsy for having both Ohio and Florida going to Obama, but with Palin/Obama sinking whenever Palin goes out and McCain speaks with no clue, Florida and Ohio will lean Obama (they are now tied). Obama only needs one of those states. If McCain wins both states, we will have 4 more years of Bush.
They're calling Virginiah for McCain (and solidly)? That's not what I'm seeing on the ground, and I'm not just talking about Northern VA, which is where all the votes are.
Friends and families helped put on a bakesale for Obama today. Doing our part, one cupcake at a time...

Pardon the ignorance, but what does this mean? You sell the pastries and the proceeds go to Obama? Isn't it a bit late for that. Most people by now should be aware of him.
I also hate it when people are so overtly political. It divides society. Sure, there are cases where you need to make a stand, but Democrats and Republicans are basically the same thing, dividing themselves over such petty things.
And this is something you really only see in the US. I mean in Chile, where people endured an awful 17 year dictatorship they have learned to reconciliate and most people keep their politics at the urns.
Here in Canada even more so. You just don't go around waving your political parties flag.
But my Grandpa who is American, can't have a conversation with someone without bringing out his hardcore Republican views. I honestly don't believe he could be friends with a democrat. Why hate half your country? Trust me there are plenty of people like that on both sides. This is why Moz calls it the divided states of America.

Plus anyone voting for McCain must be blind to the existence of Palin, because that lady could become the president one day... and that scares the shit out of me... *shivers*
Well look at it this way. Democrats are up against their own incompetence and the incompetence of the republicans as well. They are fighting to keep separation of church and state, abortion rights, and civil rights in ways that the republicans do not. They are fighting to keep the market regulated, and as much as they (epically) fail, the flip side is much worse. The free-market is not going to smooth itself out forever. It will only lead to a shrunken middle-class and a ruined nation. That is why I am voting democrat.

Scarier for Obama to be the immediate leader.
*puts hand over Buzzetta's mouth* watch it!!
He opened the door and rang the bell. You cannot unring the bell.
