Not giving up yet....

Looks like McCain just isn't willing to give up Pennsylvania yet. Both he and Governor Palin are scheduled for several events over the next couple of days. Since June he has been to Pennsylvania 17 times.

The recent numbers for Obama versus McCain have definitely been influenced by the half a million newly registered Democrats - but just registering to vote doesn't mean they will show up to vote. Republicans are well known to drop loads of money on getting the voters to the polls versus they Democrats strategy of getting voters to register. If all the polls show Obama leading so strongly, will the dems show up to vote? Will the Republicans ability to get out there and get people to the polls bolster McCain? If the polls are so hopeless, then why do so many political analysts think there is hope for McCain? In addition to all the analysts out on tv and in the news you know McCain has a team of experts on the matter - why do they still think he has a chance? I have a hard time believing that people who make their livelihood off of these predictions could all be completely off base. But what do they see? Is it Obama's terrible record with the working class? His tendency to insult many of the groups that exists in Pennsylvania openly when he's visiting other states? His ability to get out the vote? With so many factors at play it seems hard to tell.

But one thing we know for sure is that there is no sure thing when it comes to politics. We can only hope we will learn more as the election approaches.
