The Last One! The Sunday Wrap-Up

Top Five Articles at Reuters.com:

1. Obama up 6 points - McCain is losing in the election race by a percentage of 44 to 50 to Barrack Obama. Experts say that he has a huge mountain to climb if he wants to pull an upset. This is such a big deal because with the election only 2 days away, the polls are a huge deal.

2. Battling in the last weekend - with Schwarzenegger, McCain is giving everything he's got. From bashing Obama to talking about his time as a POW, he is leaving everything on the table. I don't blame McCain. If he wants any chance to win this election, he needs to be honest and straight to the point, even if its cruel and demeaning to Obama. He needs to strike fear on Obama in undecided voters every chance he gets. It might be a little late, but I guess its better later then never.

3. McCain is running out of time - with only the weekend and two days left, McCain has a huge deficit to overcome. It would pretty much take a miracle to come back from. I feel he could, but it will be almost impossible.

4. Damn the polls, full speed ahead at McCain rallies - John McCain's supporters aren't about to let a bunch of poll numbers get them down. Most of them say that they don't believe the polls anyway. They feel that it is a bunch of rubbish, and you can never tell until the final vote is counted. I wish I was this optimistic, but I feel that this race is over.

5. Palin, a Political Force - With making such a good impression, Palin is said to be the next republican candidate in 2012 if McCain does not win. I don't know how I feel about this but many experts are saying she is it. They say she will have enough backers to pull her through. I don't completely agree, but that is 4 years away, no reason to be saying stuff now.
