    Hold your water, sonny

    Yes, indeedy! And the latest CBS-NY Times poll has an even steven tie at 42-42.

    So much for Obama's eight point lead, which is now history.

    All this blather about the "new political paradigm" O & B are using is tommyrot. It will not work, and they WILL lose unless they eagerly grab the weapons needed and partake in the political WARfare.

    That poll is an outlier and the weighting was different from the last sample. More pukes.

    The lead is still the same.

    The Dow too a 345 point nosedive today on the Palin Speech

    Obama and his team are doing fine. And they are not going to pull a Kerry.

    They know what they are doing. You can be as ugly as you want to get. Bloggers are. Rachel Maddow was kicking ass and the media are pissed at McCain. Be patient. Don't lose your cool.

    Now about that joke...

    A joke too bad to print?
