I was nervous about the polls coming in today as they’ll be the first to reflect the candidates’ status since the Ayers attacks and ads started over the weekend and it seems they’ve had no effect what-so-ever! In fact, Obama has gone up in several polls! Check out the gallup chart:

Could be going that way if the trends at Rasmussen and Gallup are in any way accurate. Hell, unless McCain does something drastic or Obama/Biden commits a major gaffe, we could see +10 for Obama by Wednesday.

If you haven’t, you need to get it in the mail this week to be sure it’ll reach the office by the deadline. Luckily, the state makes it pretty goddam easy to register. Just head to the NJ voter reg page and print out the form for your county. The form itself folds up and becomes a free, stampless envelope you can put right in the mail. So you have no excuse. Do it!

So this is scandal number, what? 27? 48? Read about it here. Just keep piling it on. I’m really enjoying watching her approval ratings sink.

An Aside: Tonight’s Debates

Who’s watching them?

Should we concerned about this? Is this the sort of thing that happens every election and we’re only now making a big deal of it? Or is the election being stolen right out from under our noses?

AP is reporting that Hillary is going to concede tonight that Obama has the delegates to win the Democratic nomination, but will not suspend her campaign.

WTF.

My friend from work is a registered Independent in the state of California and attempted to vote in the Democratic primary yesterday.
