Did I hear Scar say Republican pols were telling him this election was over two weeks ago?

About a half an hour ago he said it. I was half a sleep at the time.

1. I think Scar said Florida was over

Was also half asleep here but I think he said that a politician in Florida told him that the early voting for Obama in Florida was huge. That Obama is running a 7 week get out the vote effort and McCain a 72 hour one.

2. My mother a registered Republican said she got her first request for donations from McCain last week

Late last week. She told me she thought she should have started getting that stuff months ago. Its too late now she said.

3. If it is true that Florida is over....

than the election is over and Obama is the President.

4. Yes , he said that in between

saying that "McCain can still win" and "McCain can still win".

5. Yesterday while driving ...

I heard Rachel Maddow say, "McCain could win".
I almost wrecked my car!
What happened to Rachel?
Is working at MSNBC messin' with her head?

That is why she does it.

10. I agree....

It is hard to hear, but I know that's the key issue she is driving. I also think she is incredibly superstitious and that's ok, after all our devastating disappointments the past 8 years.

9. I think Rachel is just superstitious (she'd say cautious), but...

I don't mind her putting a few breaks out there, because it is true we have been burned by failure to show up to vote in previous years and the obstacles to voting have never been greater in most states.

But, her constant negative downbeat is hard to take and I do admittedly tune her out when she is on one of those rants. Thank God for David Bender, who offsets her with his rational, cautious, but very clear optomism--at least when she appears on AAR.

[SammyWinstonJack]

11. I tune her out when she's does that too. nt

12. she'll even tell you that she is more pessimistic than most

I've heard her say that
