If the American people aren't fooled we will see Obamas gains increase even more. McCain should know he can attend the debates to inform the American public on his plans for our economy, and then jump into his (Cindy's) private jet and quickly be in Washington to "solve" the current economic crisis.
How many of the fools on this blog were once telling us what a great job George Bush would do as president?
How many of the fools on this blog voted for George Bush twice? lol
Anon, the only fool is you. Enjoy!
The debate schedule this Friday is dedicated to... foreign policy...
Sorry Mister Anonymous...
By the way, if Obama is elected president, I'm confidant that he can turn this recession into a depression...
I mean, the guy take advice from James Johnson, the crook&liar who bankrupt Fannie Mae.
David, McCain takes advice from the same slimeballs responsible for this mess. Look up Phil Gramm and Rick Davis.
Intrade like Wikipedia is an easily minpulated joke.
Do you really believe the leftist trolls who scour every corner of the internet pushing their socialist messiah are going to overlook Intrade?
Unpopular War: Check
Economic Crisis: Check
Unpopular president: Check
Frustrated public: Check
If the democrats don't win this election they should disband the party.

Gotta agree with you there.
Still, the debates will be interesting. The Paulin-Biden debate promises to be more dramatic than an episode of Hell's Kitchen.
Funny, that the dismal science is finally getting some attention. Usually, these dudes just ignore their economic advisors.
"How many of the fools on this blog voted for George Bush twice?"
guilty in 2000, not-guilty in 2004
fool me once ("compassionate conservative" ROTFLMAO!), shame on you.
fool me twice, shame on me.
i'm not pro-obama, i'm anti-McBush

Don't be a dope and lump Bush and McCain together - McCain is FAR more liberal and fights government spending which is the biggest problem right now.
InTrade is European based and focused so Obama's lead there is close to meaningless.
If the democrats don't win this election they should disband the party.
They should have disbanded the party in 1960.

Kevin:"Don't be a dope and lump Bush and McCain together - McCain is FAR more liberal and fights government spending . . "
yeah, i take some comfort in the govt spending thing.
but he'd have to renounce "100 more years in iraq", torture, habeus corpus revocation, wiretapping, palin's war with russia, and appointing supreme court justices that think the president is a monarch before i'd consider casting my vote for him.
Um.... Bobble......
McCain IS AGAINST torture.
The 100 years in Iraq is a complete distortion from the Obama campaign and the DNC.

I have no idea what you are talking about when it comes to Palin's war with Russia. Thats another gross exaggeration by my guess.
The Supreme court and the presidency as a monarch? Come on! That is just intellectually stupid!
This is exactly what happens when we have no morals or values. If you have no morals or values then your economics will follow. I don't know of one person voting for OBAMA and cannot believe so many people want to live under a Socialist Government. Move to Russia (didn't work there) or somewhere else if you don't like capitalism. The "Government" does not have one program that isn't in the red so what makes you think they can handle any kind of health plan or anything else. Go ahead and vote for the man the media and Hollywood are so in love with and see what we get. How can people be so ignorant! Get educated. The Congress (Democrats) is the branch of Government that polices the Banks, the President isn't allowed to, all he can do is suggest and that is what he has done since 2001.
@ matt:
Phil Gramm and Rick Davis never fraud fraud Fannie Mae.
Johnson and Raines did.
Johnson and Raines work for Obama now.
P.S.: 8 more years of Bush still better than 4 years of Obama.
What a load of crap.
Intrade had similar odds with Kerry vs. Bush, and of course, was loud wrong.
The only "pole" that matters will be on November 4th, and I can't wait.
