Sunday News


Colin Powell endorses Obama. A common conservative reaction seems to be that Powell is a racist traitor - check comment sections of newspapers and conservative blogs. The good conservative reaction, except the religious right doesn't consider Andrew a conservative at all. Is Colin Powell "the most popular political figure in the country"?

Houston Chronicle endorses Obama. Most other newspapers endore Obama. A common theme - Palin.
Perhaps the worst mistake McCain made in his campaign for the White House was the choice of the inexperienced and inflammatory Palin as his vice-presidential running mate. Had he selected a moderate, experienced Republican lawmaker such as Texas Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison with a strong appeal to independents, the Chronicle's choice for an endorsement would have been far more difficult.
Polls show race tightening, more polls, as surveyers use outdated likely voter models. The Gallup poll showcases the likely voter model differences with between 3 and 10 point Obama leads depending on definition.

Obama raises $150 million in September. GOP reaction - it's unDemocratic, we always rake in the money. McCain - No to socialism, except for campaign money.
