I live in California, which went for HRC, as they should have. There are McCain Palin signs all over San Diego and Santa Barbara (my hometown). There are also Obama signs all over LA and San Fran, so the state will likely go blue. I find it affrontive that the media continues to lump Democrats into one large group, when we are very divided. But if you're a Democrat that moved to McCain, you're invisible! How can these polls be 'representative' when a whole, significantly sized segment is not even on the radar? The media keeps painting up Republicans voting Obama, but not PUMA. THAT'S how we know we can't trust them. We're invisible to them, they don't want to see us. But that means we can operate under their radar as well - and we should use that. I'd love to see a Dewey Truman moment - when the newspapers reported Dewey defeated Truman by a landslide...and Truman had actually won. Headline: "Obama wins in landslide".

I've been saying this from day one, the Democrats always get exercised about winning VA and we never do. And North Carolina? Are they dreaming? It will never happen. The other states, though, I'm getting nervous about. McCain pulling out of Michigan was a bad sign. I’m willing to bet my puny life savings that Obama NEVER WINS VIRGINIA.

I believe McCain's system is the same as Hillary's. You call an 800# that shows up on the receiver's caller i.d. so they don't even know from which state you are calling. I LOVED calling for Hillary and I will call for McCain. The great thing about calling from home is that you can squeeze in an hour or half hour whenever you have the time.

I'm a PA PUMA who lurks here regularly and I am solidly behind McCain/Palin. I live in a racially mixed neighborhood and prior to the PA primary, the Ogotohell yard signs clearly outnumbered the HRC signs. However, HRC won PA by double-digits. Now, hardly anyone is putting up signs for either candidate. I know that I fear vandalism/retaliation if I make my preference known publicly. As a result, no yard sign or bumper sticker for me. I hope that the lack of visible support for either candidate means that my neighbors will be voting for McCain as well, and they are keeping their intentions private. Also, I wanted to tell you how much I enjoy reading your posts. You always seem to have something interesting and valuable to say. Hi Paul.
