Gallup Poll: Obama 50% - McCain 42%. For the first time, Senator Barack Obama has touched the 50% mark. Obama's groundbreaking acceptance speech has helped. The hurricanes overshadowed the VP pick of Senator John McCain, Sarah Palin. Conservative talk radio's influences are not helping boost Senator McCain. The Electoral College is still Obama 273 -- McCain 265. Recent controversies surrounding Palin and McCain have not helped them in the polls. ______________________________________ Southern state governors from Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Florida are going to use Hurricanes Gustav and Hanna to boost Senator John McCain. Hurricane Hanna is coming for the Southeastern United States. Pray for the people in the Southeast and Gulf Coast states. Thanks for viewing and post your comments at the bottom. Take a stand against the corporate owned media and turn that television, radio and internet smear machine off. Let the real media analysis do the hard work for you. Don't let the media control your voice, your thoughts and your vote. Minneapolis will hold the Revolution Convention, with former Republican Presidential candidate congressman Ron Paul. Amy Goodman, veteran journalist from Democracy Now was arrested. Senator John McCain and Senator Barack Obama are taking a slow down in regards to three potential major hurricanes. The protesters scare Republican delegates. Anarchist plots to disrupt convention thwarted (for now)! Most of the mainstream media (except Fox News) all but bounced the GOP Convention. Will they return back? Louisiana and Texas governors Bobby Jindal and Rick Perry are prepared now. Or course, they are, they want to make the Republicans look like they are prepared for the domestic security. The first lady and potential first lady called for donations to those who may lose their homes. Lady Laura Bush and Cindy McCain spoke at the Republican convention. Has Independent Democratic Senator Joe Lieberman made his appearance? Will he do what the energetic former Georgia Democratic Senator Zell Miller did at the 2004 GOP Convention? Already bloggers are posting videos in preparation of Lieberman. Just in case, the senator makes any attacks on Senator Obama. There's a video I found from the Crooks & Liars website to retort Senator Lieberman's accusations. Lieberman praises Obama and calls him a "bouruk"! Ah, can we smell the dun? Critics: Ok, critics. Seeing you have been beating around the bush about Senator Barack Obama's so-called "socialist" economic plan, I want to know what does McCain's plan for the economy, home foreclosure, high oil prices, high food prices, the environment and how to deal with the health care crisis. Don't give me that Newt Gingrich mantra about "Drill Here, Drill Now, Save Less" motto. That's flopped two months ago, when an oil barrage was damaged in the Mississippi River. -What has John McCain laid out for the economy? -Why hasn't John McCain vetted his pick Sarah Palin without proper suggestions? -Could this be the Mitt Romney supporters against McCain? -Will this get more play than the Hillary Clinton supporters against Obama? -Why did John McCain run attacks ads through the mainstream media, when he clearly knows Barack Obama and praised him for his dedication? -Why does talk radio keeps spinning John McCain's POW and military experiences? -Why does Americans feel that our government is failing the grade when covering the issues that are truly important? -Why are we so focused on conservative issues [patriotism, gun rights, military experiences, abortions, illegal immigration and campaign finance reform], when real issues [economy, oil prices, home foreclosure and high food prices] overshadow the issues once known to have damaging effects on Democratic candidates?
