Looking good for the Dems

There's a certain percentage of people here who are doom and gloom about November. But all signs point to a big election for the Dems. First, we have Obama beating McCain in EVERY national poll:

Gallup Tracking 05/09 - 05/13 4381 RV 46 45 Obama +1.0
Rasmussen Tracking 05/11 - 05/14 1600 LV 46 45 Obama +1.0
Quinnipiac 05/08 - 05/12 1475 RV 47 40 Obama +7.0
ABC News/Wash Post 05/08 - 05/11 1122 A 51 44 Obama +7.0
POS/GQR 05/07 - 05/08 800 LV 48 43 Obama +5.0
LA Times/Bloomberg 05/01 - 05/08 1986 RV 46 40 Obama +6.0
(realclearpolitics.com)

And then, we have the three special elections we've won:

"House Democrats have now won three special elections in Republican-held seats, after Travis Childers (D) beat Greg Davis (R) in Mississippi's 1st district. The other two seats Democrats have taken this year, in Illinois and Louisiana, were both GOP-leaning, but this one was really, really red; President Bush won it by 25 points in 2004."

Finally, we have a poll from Gallup showing 85% of the country "dissatisfied with the way things are going in the United States at this time."

Things are looking good my friends.

And these numbers will jump up as soon as Hillary concedes. Obama is much stronger now than he was at the beginning of this thing. Once the debate on policies starts, he will completely destroy McSame.

You call it "doom and gloom" (none / 0)

I call it realism. November is a long way off and no one can predict the future.

Re: You call it "doom and gloom" (none / 0)

If no one can predict the future, then how is it realism to say the sky is falling?
