Looks like a down to the wire finish. Anyone have any good links on the elections and their implications for foreign policy? The one political gossip sheet I check infrequently is The Notes section on ABCnews.com. It's actually more information than you want to know. But it might have what you want. In the past, I've started reading David Broder in the Washington Post very carefully as we got closer to the poll date. He gets good stuff and offers good analysis.

John has recommended the ABC site, and I agree with him. I think John believes that the Anti-War speeches by the Dems will energize the left in the party, and attract swing voters. I think it will lose swing voters. Here is the leading quote for today from them. The URL follows. >>>> In a year in which all of Congress is divided by a total of nine seats (one in the Senate and technically eight in the House, counting the two vacancies), with no one expecting either party to see some huge breakthrough, or that enough races will crystallize before election day to facilitate hard predictions of the outcome, it's almost silly to flat-out say that one party is better positioned than the other. But today, if you had to say where the momentum is, you'd say the GOP.<<<<< abcnews.go.com
