McCain/Palin 2008 … The Polling Trends do not Lie … Polling Surge for McCain & Palin
Think Democrats and the Obama camp are not in panic mode as they watch the polls? Think again as Team McCain has gained the momentum and the enthusiasm of the American public. No one is talking about Obama or his VP who? They buzz is all about Sarah Palin and John McCain.
Make no mistake about it, the Republican ticket of John McCain and Sarah Palin are surging and have the momentum. Barack Obama’s pre-convention poll leads are gone as some polls show a statistical tie as others show a slight McCain lead. However, the fact of the matter is that McCain/Palin are trending upward among many voters. Following the “bounce” from the convention … McCain/Palin have the advantage.
… according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll. The presidential contest is also about even among those who are the most likely to vote in November: 49 percent for McCain, 47 percent for Obama.
Many of the shifts toward McCain stem from gains among white women, voters his team hoped to sway with the pick of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his vice presidential candidate. White women shifted from an eight-point pre-convention edge for Obama to a 12-point McCain advantage now.
According to a CBS News poll McCain now leads Obama 46% to 44%. However, as Hot Air points out here is a real eye opener as in an ABC poll, 20-point shift towards McCain among white women since last month. The Gallup Daily tracking poll shows McCain with a 5 point lead over Barack Obama 49% to 44%. The USA Today/Gallup gave McCain a 4-point edge among registered voters and a 10-point lead among likely voters

Panic Time for Obama … McCain/Palin Gets Bounce and Poll Trending in their Favor (Gallup & Zogby)
Now that’s a bounce and a half …
Obama, Biden, the LEFT and the MSM can complain all they want in their efforts to discredit Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin, the truth of the matter is that their efforts are failing and the favorable trend of the McCain/Biden ticket is on the up-swing. The LEFT does not have the right to tell McCain how he is to run their campaign … Obama and his crew only have the right and ability to run theirs in the manner they seem fit. In all honesty, the Obama campaign has been run terribly of late.
The once candidate of Change has been anything but and is seeing his poll number go down the drain. Obama had a chance for change by choosing a woman for his VP. Obama did not and he now gets to witness the consequences. McCain to the chance and showed America who the real candidate of change really is.
In polling land all signs are pointing to an incredibly favorable trend to John McCain and Sarah Palin. The bounce from the Republican National Convention is ongoing as the momentum from the Palin phenomenon and McCain’s most watched speech is paying dividends.
The Gallup Daily tracking poll has McCain up by 3% points ahead of Obama. Not too long ago Obama had an 8 point advantage. These results of the Gallup poll are based on September 4-6 interviewing. As Hot Air points out the McCain advantage is outside the margin of error.

Obama is Losing It … In the Polls and His Cool … When in Doubt Barack Obama Plays the Race Card … More Smears … “Sambo”
Dumpster Diving from the LEFT!!! Moonbats caught in False Smear.
What despicable and desperate acts the LEFT will do to smear and discredit Sarah Palin. The LEFT had never heard of Palin a week ago and now she is public enemy #1 on their hit list. It is too bad the LEFT does not go after the real enemies of the Unites States the same way they do Republicans.
Sarah Palin … Public enemy #1 of the media and Democrats
The bloom is off the Obama rose and his once invincible quest to BS the American public on his way to the White House has hit a road bump. That detour is in the form of a feisty hockey mom who is out-Obamaing Obama. The Obamamessiah, the so-called candidate of change has met his match. Obama claims to be out change; however, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is CHANGE!!! So why is Palin such a threat? Could it be that she is more popular than either Obama or McCain … YES!!! The attack media has made Palin more popular than their “Chosen One” and they still don’t know enough to stop.
Obama has been for 18 months nothing more than a politician with a good and unchallenged stump speech. That was until Sarah Palin wowed millions of Americans were her brilliant acceptance speech. The result, the Gallup poll shows Obama with only a 2 point lead, down from 8. McCain has received solid marks for his speech as well as more people saw McCain’s speech than even that of the “Chosen One”. The Rasmussen poll has only a 1 point lead for Obama.
So why is Barack Obama and the LEFT so upset with Sarah Paling that the Obama campaign feels the need to play the race card and the LEFT feels the needs to make outlandish racist comments. Sarah Palin has gone from unknown to th greatest threat to the LEFT and Democrats since Ronald Reagan. Now the nut jobs on the LEFT are claiming that Palin called Obama, “Sambo”. That is correct. The LEFT has lost their collective minds and they have yet to lose the 2008 Presidential Election. As Wake Up America states, they are in such panic mode that they are willing to say anything against poor Sarah.

PALIN POWER … Sarah Palin has Rocked the Political Landscape … CBS Poll now Tied
Move over mainstream old guard politicians, there’s a new sheriff in town and she’s a pit bull wearing lipstick.
After the performance that Sarah Palin, Republican VP candidate and Governor of Alaska, gave last night at the Republican National Convention many are scratching their heads today why they were ever concerned. Sarah Palin was a resounding success and has energized the Republican party the likes that has not been seen since Ronald Reagan. Sarah Palin scared a huge number of viewers watching her make history at the RNC. Who knew during the remarkable speech by Palin that there were actually teleprompter issues? Sarah Palin handled it like a pro and rocked the convention.
Palin pulled in 37.2 million viewers across broadcast and cable networks, according to Nielsen Media Research.
That’s 55% higher than Day 3 of the DNC, when her Democratic counterpart, Joe Biden, and President Clinton took the stage (24 million).
The end result is that the Democrats have been stunned and will be in complete attack mode against Palin. How dare a women with 5 children, one special needs, be a card carrying member of the NRA, fishing loving, small town American living, pro-life believing, God fearing person be a Republican. She is a threat to the very existence of the female monopoly that the Democrats have had for decades. The Democrats, Liberals and MSM despise her because Palin could reshape the political landscape for the next 30 to 40 years.
According to a CBS poll today, the Presidential race between McCain and Palin is now tied at 42% a piece. Much of that thanks to the tremendous speech from Sarah Palin.
The presidential race between Barack Obama and John McCain is now even at 42 percent, according to a new CBS News poll conducted Monday-Wednesday of this week. Twelve percent are undecided according to the poll, and one percent said they wouldn’t vote.
This is in contrast to a poll conducted last weekend, where the Obama-Biden ticket led McCain-Palin by eight points, 48 percent to 40 percent.

GAME ON: Republican VP Candidate Sarah Palin Wows America … The Republicans Best Kept Secret Weapan
GAME ON: Republican VP Candidate Sarah Palin Wows America … The Republicans Best Kept Secret Weapon
A star was born last night at the Republican National Convention and her name is Sarah Palin. The Governor of Alaska wowed the crowd with her speech, her presence, her wit, her sarcasm and her love of her family and country. The self described hockey mom truly was a pit bull wearing lipstick. Finally, a candidate we can relate to … she is the every mom.
The Republican Party has not been this energized in a long time. It took a woman from small town America with a simple upbringing and a flare for the moment to bring the house down at the convention.
Read her speech in full HERE or HERE. However, once must watch the VIDEO to fully get an understanding of the impact of Palin’s speech that has resonated across America and that has Republicans, Democrats and Independents talking today.
Sarah Palin … A Speech that Woke Up a Party
