I am not ready to totally give up hope. I agree with DH that all of the polls are weighted too much for the Dems, and are wrong on the "undecided" split. TWT.

Why McCain-Palin Have A Chance
By Dirty Harry on General

1. Pollsters weight their national polls heavily towards Democrats. The most conservative weighting is used by Rasmussen. He assumes 7% more Democrats will turn out than Republicans but thus far nothing we're seeing in early voting backs this up.

2. Mason-Dixon is the best state pollster in the country and just did their last round of battlegrounds. Other than OH, MO and NV, Obama leads but can't get above 50%.

PA: 47-43 Obama — FL 47-45 Obama — NV 47-43 Obama
