2. Crazy

Obama stops telling us to eat peas and demanding Social Security cuts, and suddenly he's popular. Who'd a thunk?

Unfortunately he's still pushing "free" trade bills, but that's not getting much press.

We'll see what happens on Wednesday November 7th.

5. Hang in there, Manny...

all is not lost--maybe this poll is just an "outlier".

There's always hope--Israel could attack Iran and ignite the whole Middle East; the Yellowstone caldera could erupt and cover a third of the US in hot ash.

Or the magnetic poles could suddenly invert and plunge the Earth into chaos. There's even the outside chance of a direct asteroid hit.

So, ya see? No reason to be down in the mouth!
