2. K&R

3. Stealing the election will be a lot harder if

all the polls have Obama up by about 5 or more points in November. Then people will be like, "How was that outcome possible?!"

[backscatter712]

6. By my out-of-the-ass estimates...

The fascists will be able to steal roughly 7% of the vote. That means we need to be up by 14 points in the polls in order to keep the election out of theft range.

[Drunken Irishman]

8. Then we're going to lose.

Because no way does Obama lead by 14 points on election day. I don't even think Reagan led by 14 points in 1984 on election day.

:eyes:

[Bonn1997]

13. Yeah, if a 14 point margin is needed, then

there will probably never be another Democratic president of the country. We clearly need some other strategy; aiming to win by 14 points is basically planning to lose.

[Bonn1997]

11. I don't think they can steal 7% without people noticing

You're talking about a 14 point swing if I understand correctly. You really think if Obama was up by, say, 9 points in the national polls they could get away with stealing the election? I think they'd move on to Congressional elections and planning to steal future, closer Presidential elections. I'm merely speculating, though.

7. the MSM answer will be: the Bradley Effect

This is the phenomenon that many white voters will say that they intend to vote for an African American to please the poll taker and not appear racist, but when it comes to pulling the lever ....

[Bonn1997]

10. Then we counter with...

"Are you claiming this Bradley effect occurs only where Diebold does the counting without a paper trail?" They'd have no response to that.

15. I've been saying his lead has to be at least 10%. n/t

[Jennicut]

4. UP another point!

[WindRiverMan]

5. Yes ,it has begun

I think the lead will just open further and further. Obama played McCain like a fiddle and the old wrinkly dude with relgious whacko sideshow freak are just going to fall futher and further into obscurity.

9. definitely interested! Thanks, great news!

12. Heartening, but wait for debates.
