Glow Fading?

The original poll was a clear outlier. The new poll is closer to the rest of the pack. With a large number of polls out there, reporters have no excuse for writing stories based on a single poll. It's misleading to the readers and simply bad journalism.

I would NOT vote for Obama even if Hillary is the VP. Obama will just use her to win 8 years in the Whitehouse. After that, from shear terror that Hillary will completely overshaddow him, Obama will marginalize her to the point that she'll be invisible. First of all, Hillary will make Michelle Obama look like the hired help and then the two of them will be in the National Enquirer each week bitching at each other (Michelle has a temper). Hillary thinks on her feet, is smarter, more experienced, better connected and respected. Obama will always look like he's one step behind Hillary holding her umbrella. He'll have no choice but to hide Hillary in the attic.

I consider myself a progressive independent and I still support Obamam because he really embodies change no matter what the GOP wants you to believe. He is our best shot at unifying this country and making it stronger. He has the intelligence, vision and physical energy to deal with complex issues. He is willing to give middle class American tax breaks. This is a no brainer. COme November those people in Appalachia and the working class will vote for Obama.

What a difference the detah of Tim Russert has made.! Hw as the only cross-appeal pundit who could not be swayed by group think.
Such a targedy for our nation if the secret behind the scenes macihinations of the Clintons continues to bankrupt our nation adn derail such a great candidate.
The Clintons adn their supporters did enough to ruin the primary seson by facilitating McCain's popularity. Now they will continue to scuttle an honest and brilliant candidate in Obama so they can make a case for Hillary.
What a national horror are these blind, greedy plutocrats with special interests that continue the same old Washington Dc sleaight of hand polictial games.
they are trying to amke Obama disappear for teh convetion and they may succeed.
Our nation, for corporate interests and the xurrent untenable rotten staus quo.

I'M SURE THAT YOU CAN FIND A POLL THAT WILL SHOW ANYTHING YOU WANT IF YOU LOOK HARD ENOUGH. HISTORY SHOWS THAT THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE ALWAYS ENJOYS ABOUT A FIVE POINT LEAD DURING THE SUMMER, WHICH REVERSES IN SEPTEMBER, SO DON'T GET EXCITED. BY THE WAY, I'VE NEVER SEEN SUCH WIDE RANGING POLLS, WITH SOME DIFFERENCES EXCEEDING THE "MARGIN OF ERROR" BY RIDICULOUS AMOUNTS - LEADING TO THE CONCLUSION THAT SOME OF THE MORE EXTREME ONES ARE POLITICALLY SLANTED POLLS. BASED ON THE LAST TWO ELECTIONS, ONLY TWO ARE RELIABLE - RASMUSSEN AND SURVEY USA, SO IGNORE THE OTHERS.

Richard, let it go. Start looking for a new target to aim the internal rage you're pointing at Bush. ....gotta find a new place the the middle of January. Try the Dallas Cowboys. That's always a good place.

After listening to both McCain and Obama speak, I find it "very" disturbing that there are a signiicant number of people who support McCain. I had always had faith in the common wisdom of the American public to see thru the political BS that is found throughout the McCain campaign. Are these people brain dead or what? When, in their infinate wisdom, they re-elected Bush, my faith in them was really shaken. Now I see it happening again. I keep being reminded of the fall and decline of the Roman Empire. We haven't lasted anywhere as long as they did. In my lifetime, I have seen us rise to the ultmate in power and wealth. Here we are decling, victem of greed and arrogance.I am saddened!

I can not see how McCain can be neck and neck in the polls with Obama. When campaining, McCain is filling up halls Obama fills up stadiums...Obama will be our next Presedent you can count on it. I just hope McCain does not stroke out or have a heart attack before the election. His temper is going to be what will cost him the election.

I love the title of this article. Obama 's glow is not fadind. Now that he really has delved into substantial issuses and come up with real solutions, he is a politician. InGOP world you can never win. It is obvious the authors of this article like to play with words. If Obama's glow was fading, then hoe come he is ahead 8 points in another Newsweek poll . Are thse people nuts?

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said this morning that the House Judiciary Committee may hold hearings on an impeachment resolution offered by Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio).

Kucinich is expected to offer a "privileged resolution" this afternoon calling on the House to look at whether President Bush should be removed from office for lying to Congress and the American public when he sought congressional approval back in 2002 for taking military action to invade Iraq and overthrow Saddam Hussein.

Pelosi has said previously that impeachment "was off the table," so her comments this morning were surprising, and clearly signaled a new willingness to entertain the idea of ousting Bush, although no one in the Democratic leadership believes that is likely since the president has only six months left in this term.

oh give me a break. Obama is a flip flopper. His whole primary has been about how we are getting out of this war within a short time frame and now he's changed his mind about that. Among other things . I'd have more respect for him if he had any gumption and stayed true to his values instead of being swayed to the beliefs of the popular opinion.
