When asked if John mccain can still rally and win the presidential race, pollster John Zogby tells Newsmax TV that "anything can happen; we just take snapshots of a moment in time." He explains that mccain has to pick up at least one blue state, however. Hear his analysis of what's happening and why.
With just a handful of days left in the presidential campaign, pollster John Zogby tells Newsmax TV that John mccain still has a chance of winning because it's a "volatile situation," but he notes mccain should stick to talking about the economy, because that's the issue that resonates with voters. Zogby lists the demographic groups where mccain needs to make inroads in the remaining days.
Early Election Results In the Presidential race, Dewey Mullins Is the Front Runner for #1 Write-in Candidate Obama leads mccain in 6 of 8 key states WASHINGTON (Reuters) Democrat Barack Obama leads Republican John mccain in six of eight key battleground states one day before the US election, including the big prizes of Florida and Ohio, according to a series of Reuters/Zogby polls released on Monday. Obama holds a 7-point edge over mccain among likely US voters in a separate Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby national tracking poll, up 1 percentage point from Sunday. The telephone poll has a margin of error of 2.9 percentage points. Obama heads into Tuesday's voting in a comfortable position, with mccain struggling to overtake Obama's lead in every national opinion poll and to hold off his challenge in about a dozen states won by President George W. Bush in 2004. The new state polls showed Obama with a 1-point lead in Missouri and 2-point lead in Florida, within the margin of error of 4.1 percentage points. But Obama also holds leads in Ohio, Virginia and Nevada -- all states won by Bush in 2004. The five states where Obama is ahead have a combined 76 electoral votes. Along with states won by Democrat John Kerry in 2004, they would give Obama 328 electoral votes -- far more than the 270 needed to win the White House. Obama also leads by 11 percentage points in Pennsylvania, which mccain has targeted as his best chance to steal a state won by Kerry in 2004. mccain leads Obama by 5 ...
NEW: Ad shows controversial clips from Reverend Jeremiah Wright's sermons ! [ THE REAL BARACK OBAMA - JUDGMENT ] (CNN) -- The Republican Party of Pennsylvania launched a last-minute television ad that calls attention to Barack Obama's relationship with the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. "If you think you could ever vote for Barack Obama, consider this: Obama chose as his spiritual leader this man," the ad's narrator says before clips of Wright's controversial statements are shown. "Does that sound like someone who should be president?" the ad asks. The retired pastor's ties to Obama became an issue during the primary season after controversial clips of Wright's sermons were circulated and widely discussed on the Internet and on television. Obama later condemned Wright's remarks and said he would have left his church if his pastor had not retired and had not acknowledged making comments that "deeply offended people." Sen. John mccain has repeatedly said he does not believe Obama's relationship to Wright should be an issue -- to the ire of some Republicans who feel it raises questions about the Illinois senator's judgment. Gov. Sarah Palin appeared to suggest last month that Wright is a fair issue to raise, but said ultimately it is mccain's decision. "[Obama] sat in the pews for 20 years and heard Rev. Wright say some things that most people would find a bit concerning. But again that is John mccain's call," Palin told reporters. The state GOP did not release the extent of the ad ...

The payments raise ethical questions about the intersection of Randy Scheunemann's personal financial interests and his advice to the Republican presidential candidate who is seizing on Russian "aggression" in Georgia as a campaign issue. McCain warned Russian leaders Tuesday that their assault in Georgia risks "the benefits they enjoy from being part of the civilized world." On April 17, a month and a half after Scheunemann stopped working for Georgia, his partner signed a $200,000 agreement with the Georgian government. The deal added to an arrangement that brought in more than $800,000 to the two-man firm from 2004 to mid-2007. For the duration of the campaign, Scheunemann is taking a leave of absence from the firm. "Scheunemann's work as a lobbyist poses valid questions about McCain's judgment in choosing someone who - and whose firm - are paid to promote the interests of other nations," said New York University law professor Stephen Gillers. "So one must ask whether McCain is getting disinterested advice, at least when the issues concern those nations." Wesley Clark: McCain As Dangerous As Bush NewsMax ^ | 2/15/08 | NewsMax Staff Posted on Friday, February 15, 2008 11:51:38 PM by melt If you dont think John McCain is just as dangerous in the White House as George W. Bush, think again. Thats how retired four-star General Wesley Clark begins a fundraising e-mail sent on behalf of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. Clark, who sought the Democratic presidential nomination in the 2004 race, writes in his e-mail: McCain will not reverse the foreign policy mistakes of George Bush. He is content to leave us in Iraq, saying itd be fine by me if we were in Iraq for another 100 years. He is rash on using military force with Iran. He overplays the military card and doesnt seem to appreciate that the real strength of the nation lies in our economy and in our values. In seeking contributions to the DSCC for this years Senate campaign, Clark says: We have to be sure we have a Congress that will support a Democratic president but also one that, in the event of a John McCain presidency, has enough horsepower to ensure he cant continue the policies of George W. Bush.

Junk mail blunder as McCain asks for Kremlin cash 08-10-21 One of Russias harshest critics, Republican presidential candidate John McCain, has been left with egg on his face after his campaign team sent a cap-in-hand letter to the Russian mission in the UN begging for cash. But Russia says it won't donate, insisting it doesn't interfere in politics abroad. Confirming it had received the circular, the Russian Mission at the United Nations said it was rejecting the request. A press release on Monday said Moscow never finances politics in foreign countries. The letter was addressed to Russia's Ambassador to the UN, Vitaly Churkin. This is how it was worded. Dear friend, Today I am reaching out to you to ask you to sign and return the enclosed 2008 pledge of support along with a campaign contribution of $US 35, 50, 100, 500, 100, 2.500 or even 5.000 to the Mccain-Palin victory 2008. McCain is known as one of the harshest critics of Russia. He wants to exclude Russia from the G8, etc. --------------------------------------- 22.08.2008 We did not belive it when people said: "The major goal of this war in South Ossetia was to help senator McCain to become the next president," but after reading this article below and the results of the latest polls, we changed our minds...
