Predictions

Are the polls right? Does Obama have this locked? Or do you still believe McCain can pull out a win? Let me know in the comment section.

I will not reward lazy blogging with comments. Whoops. Dammit. You win this round.

I think McCain has about as much of a chance as the Giants did in last year's Super Bowl.

McCain is toast. The more interesting outcome, IMO, is whether the Republicans retain control of the NYS Senate. I'm no fan of the GOP, but I hate unified government. I'm predicting the Republicans will hang on, barely.

Words of a bitter Cowboys fan. The Romonator got you down IC? What, I thought T.O. was the best, could catch ANYTHING? I thoroughly enjoyed his fumble yesterday, not so much on your end I'm guessing.

IC I was thinking the same thing earlier when someone asked me what the chances were. I'm not sure I'll be happy with any outcome tomorrow unfortunately. Either Obama wins and I am 'rich' or McCain wins and we spend the next 9-12 months having recounts and then are told that the Electoral College is flawed and that we stole the election. I don't like either outcome.

No one has a clue who will win. The pollsters are guessing.

The driving forces for Republican voters are hate and fear. They fear the Great Depression that is sure to come if Obama is elected. And they hate the media and want to prove them wrong.

No one knows if the hate and fear is strong enough motivation to turn out the Republicans in record numbers.

Posted by: Jake at November 3, 2008 02:22 PM

I feel pretty motivated. It all depends on how many votes ACORN/Obama steal.

J-
Not sure how my comment can be construed as bitter but feel free to hate in week 9. Boys won last year in NY around the same time of the year and it didn't do them much good in January. That was TO's first fumble as a Cowboy but again, feel free to hate.

McCain wins!! I think that when the dust settles on Wednesday, the win will be decisive enough that Obama will have raised all that lawyer money for nothing! Americans don't like dishonesty...and his campaign is a total manipulation!! (Vive la resistance!!)

Posted by: Annette at November 3, 2008 02:47 PM

Sounds bitter to me ;)

Posted by: J at November 3, 2008 02:58 PM

I feel like "bitter" has become like the word "ironic" in its misuse. Lots of people use it, few know what it means.

Posted by: Karol at November 3, 2008 03:27 PM

Mav wins. Eeyores find themselves surprised. Olbermann/Matthews have meltdowns on live TV (visible at 3:35 of clip).

Obama wins in a squeaker. Colorado decides it.

Posted by: Mark Poling at November 3, 2008 04:12 PM

"It all depends on how many votes ACORN/Obama steal."
So if (and that is if) Obama wins, it will be a case of "hail to the thief". Where have I heard that before?

Posted by: Urbane McMeercat at November 3, 2008 04:19 PM


I want McCain to win because he's done a lot for the U.S. and Obama has not.

And just think of all the fun we'll have watching the riots.

Posted by: Dan at November 3, 2008 04:19 PM

What a tedious grind that is comparing the real calumny of the left with the imagined calumny of the right. Ir Karl Rove had pulled the ACORN stunt, he'd be serving life on Mars. I predict no D goes to jail. In a perfect world, McCain will win, and appoint Ken Blackwell to clean up the electoral process.

Posted by: Casca at November 3, 2008 04:26 PM

Oh I know what bitter means. And IC's comments def had bitter undertones. Hey but that's okay, good luck with the season.

Posted by: J at November 3, 2008 06:07 PM

Bitter undertones?? You are seriously reaching. All I was saying was that much like the Giants were counted out of last year's Superbowl and yet came back to win it, McCain is unlikely to win tomorrow and yet still has a shot. I find it ironic that you would see bitterness there.

Posted by: IC at November 3, 2008 06:44 PM

McCain will win. Americans aren't about to elect a President with the middle name Hussein. Think about it.

Posted by: Joe Weisenthal at November 3, 2008 07:52 PM

This guy predicts a Palin Landslide. He says the polls are ignoring the PUMA voters. I have been on some of their web sites and they are really, really pissed at Obama. He could be right.

Meh.

Posted by: ccs178 (Chris) at November 3, 2008 09:35 PM

McCain has a chance. I think much of the polling this year is deliberately skewed to suppress the Republican vote, but it's impossible to know what's real.

In any case I hope whoever wins does so decisively. The endless recounts and court cases are just annoying.

Posted by: Eric at November 3, 2008 09:52 PM

IC,

Bitter or not, the following facts mean the 'Boys will be at home come January:

-Dallas has no backup worthy of the name while playing in a division where at least 2 of their opponents' defensive lines resemble Quantrill's Raiders falling in on a Union hamlet;

-Has allowed a nearly washed up, alligator armed receiver to go over the coach's head and demand that he get _more_ balls thrown to him yet whom lacks the ability to explosively separate from corners like he used to;

-Finally have an offense whose first string QB briefly considered taking advice from Brett "Pick Six, and We Don't Mean the Lotto" Favre on injury recovery, thinks Jessica Simpson and her psycho father are an upgrade from Carrie Underwood, and whom has a tendency to shrivel in big games like...well, I won't finish that thought, but it involves cold water.

Trust me, I recognize putridity being a long-suffering Chiefs fan...and the Cowboys are starting to smell like 4-day-old fish.

That's no way to talk about a man's football team, lmao. You're supposed to wager with him until he learns these things himself.

Posted by: Casca at November 4, 2008 12:29 AM

McCain-Palin wins, 286-252.

Posted by: Michael Bates at November 4, 2008 12:43 AM

Well it's election day and guess who's back!

Obama 291 and McCain 247-Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico and Virginia break for Obama who holds all that Kerry won and picks up Iowa. Ohio, Indiana and la Florida stay with McCain. Dems pick up Senate seats in Alaska, Colorado, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon and Virginia. Georgia will stay with the GOP but we won't find that out till December. House goes Dem big. The failed policies of W. and the Weekly Standard are too much to overcome.

Bobby Jindall, Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin all pack their bags for Iowa and New Hampshire and this whole damn thing starts over again.

Posted by: Von Bek at November 4, 2008 08:12 AM

Brooks Bollinger is no Quincy Carter but I say McCain has a better shot than the Cowboys.
