So if Obama wins, that's democracy at work. If McCain wins, the fix is in, right?

Ah, this line of thinking is based solely opn the fact that Obama:
1. Leads in all national polls and leads in enough state polls to win the electoral college handily.
2. Generates far more enthusiasm than McCain, if we are to judge by donations, volunteers, and crowd size.
So, its easy to say that the guy leading in the polls, getting the most volunteers, the most campaing contributions, and largest crowds, winning equals dmeocracy, but if the guy trailing in polls, volunteers, contributions, and crowds, somehow wins, there might be something funny going on.If you don't like reality, change it! me

If anything, young people have been under-polled and 55+ people over-polled.
Of course that could be countered by how many of each group get out to vote."I predict your ignore will rival Ben's" - Ecofarm

I don't answer the telephone. No one is able to poll me on anything. Polling and statistics are crap.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
