McCain and Palin picking up speed???!?

[mswheedler]

Picking up speed? Must be rolling down hill.

The poll numbers are shifting but in the big picture this thing is over, IMO. I would love to wrong, but that doesn't happen very often, lol. McCain has no wiggle room at all. He can't lose one single red state and he is WAY behind in, for example, Virginia. It will take a complete reversal of thinking, an absolute momentum shift to turn this around, and that's not going to happen in the current environment.

Picking up speed?

You mean that the polls are plummeting faster?

"No more Mr. Nice Guy" really means "More negative campaigning" which really means "I've run out of issues."

Unfortunately ACORN wont allow them to win.

McCain always comes off as aggressive.
That really hasn't changed.
Any "momentum" that he's picked up is due to him distancing himself from the "cranky old grandpa that wants to nuke iran" image.
Basically, he's trying to seem human, to varying degrees of effectiveness.

I might agree but, he has one major liability:

Sarah Palin

He is an old man with a history of cancer; she is a dumb woman with a history of being a scary fascist.

Not really. They are doing as they always did its just that Obama is now slowed down because he is the new missiah. Nothing can beat him. Shall I bow now or can I wait a few days?
