On The Campaign Trail, 10/30/08

A roundup of what's good today...

WIRE: U.S. absentee voters in Israel back McCain over Obama by 3-1... Hardly surprising.

Poll gives McCain has the lead in Florida early voting?... Again, not surprising. considering the military vote in Florida.

Chris Matthews gives us yet another moment of butt kissin' drivel in his comments on the One's infomercial..

Rasmussen poll; More now trust McCain than Obama on Taxes and the Economy A narrow shift, but an important one that could signify a trend.

Pennsylvania Poll Mason Dixon/NBC shows Obama 47, McCain 43, Undecided 9 with a 4 point margin of error...pretty close to a dead heat.

Yet more Brits sticking their nose into our business..this time, it's the Economist,urging us stupid yanks to 'take a chance and make Barack Obama the next leader of the free world.' I've said it before..if YOU want him that bad, you're welcome to him. A doctrinaire socialist with major ties to Islamists and a disdain for the military seems to fit in pretty well with where the UK is about now. But keep your noses out of OUR business, cousins. OK?

OCTOBER SURPRISE: UFO ALIEN NOW ENDORSES McCAIN! — kinda funny...


Jules Crittenden: Why I'm Voting For Obama - You'll like this one. Pajamas media's own curmudgeon says 'I for one welcome our new insect overlords.'

The Audacity of Humility - Katherine Ernst from the City Journal talks about the One's pretensions.

Don't Let the Polls Affect Your Vote - Karl Rove in the Wall Street Journal gives us an excellent rundown on polls and explains how they're manipulated. And why the only one that counts is the one that occurs November 4th.

Enjoy!
