The truth is that Hillary would have brought home the marginal states. People in Michigan are saying that Obama would have walked Michigan if Hillary was on his ticket. A lot of people still have love for Bill Clinton and Obama would have profited from having these two giants on his ticket.

Anyway, polls are not everything. Lest we forget, young people mostly use mobile phones and polls are conducted by landline therefore a large part of Obama demographics are being ignored.

People will also tire of the Sarah Palin campaigning with time as they see more and more that the media is going into overdrive and not concentrating on her politics.

On the other side, we will see that many people who claim they will vote for Obama will not vote for him. When polling day comes, fowl nyash go open.

Polls are still relevant even in the era of modern technology. While it's accuracy can't be relied on completely, neither can it be tossed aside.  During the Bush/Gore elections, its relevance came into play when polls conducted by the media showed the rivals running neck and neck (it was almost a virtually tie in). The final outcome, which was a razor thin margin authenticated the validity of the poll.

@topic,

Come to think of it, it does appear that Biden is catching up to the fever that Jesus, just like Obama was a Community Organizer.

In an apparent attempt to follow in his master's (Obama's) fooststeps and promise to recede the high tides of the ocean, Biden himself attempted to perform a miracle. While campaigning earlier in the week, Biden, energized by the zeal to out-perform the messaiah, called on a paraplegic state official to stand up from his wheelchair to be recognized. Apparently, he had to learn that though change can be mouthed, it does not quite happen with a waze of the hand.

The Democrats may compare Obama to Jesus for all I care, but they need to know without a shadow of a doubt, there can only be one Jesus, and we need no other Messaiah!

Ndipe's comment:

How sure are you over that, or don't you think it was an oversight on Biden's part?

This is one of the reason why I will vote for McCain.
