POPSWho are Blue Star Families for Obama? We are teachers and lawyers, homemakers and small business owners. We coach soccer and volunteer in our children's schools. And at the end of the day, there is often an empty seat at our kitchen table because our loved ones are serving far from home. We are teachers and lawyers, homemakers and small business owners. We coach soccer and volunteer in our children's schools. And at the end of the day, there is often an empty seat at our kitchen table because our loved ones are serving far from home. We represent all branches of the armed services. We come from small towns, and the big city lights. We are wives, husbands, mothers and fathers. We are daughters, sons, and the entire extended family that gives support during deployments. Our backgrounds may be diverse, but we are united in the cause of service to our country. We are the Military Family.

POPSElection 08: How's it looking? Mouse over states to get current numbers and history. I'm surprised that WV is only "barely Republican;" FL now within margin of error; Obama expands nationwide Gallup lead by 1, to six points, since RNC. Overall so far, a narrow but widening Obama win. See map key at bottom of clip.

POPSGallup Daily: Obama Back in the Lead I'm not yet vindicated, but I'm halfway there. I've been saying that McCain's numbers are a post-convention bounce -- that they'd come down again. I've also been saying that McCain knows this and that's why he's not acting like a candidate who's winning . McCain is trending downward and, although bad economic news probably doesn't help, that trend began before Monday . As it has been throughout, this election is Barack Obama's to lose.

POPSGOP "Hitched Their Wagon To Rising Star" Gov. Sarah Palin Rarely, if ever, has a vice-presidential pick had such impact. And no media pundit should be able to get away with claiming it has more to do with style than substance. A Rasmussen poll shows a recent increase in those identifying themselves as Republican. 32% of those calling themselves Republicans rose to 33.2% in August, while Democratic identification slipped to 35% from 37%. With a sizable majority of Americans demanding more domestic oil production, McCain chose a running mate from the state with the most to drill. Palin could give Obama, Biden and McCain a seminar on accessing oil and gas without devastating the wild. McCain's running mate has also electrified the party's base by living up to the family values she espouses, suspending the state fuel tax and vetoing half a billion dollars in spending — the kinds of things Republicans used to do before they lost their way.

POPSBattle for Congress Becoming Competitive The Americans are very disappointed by the spiteful, do-nothing, hapless clowns who currently control Congress. If I were Reid, Pelosi, Kerry, Murtha, et al, I would be very afraid. They just might be sent packing and have to work for the first time in their miserable lives. Ah, but maybe they could be "community organizers"...

POPSMistress Palin, the Alaskan Dominatrix Excellent piece explaining the knee jerk reaction caused by Palin's convention appearance. But the feeling by many "experts" is that she is gonna scare the shit out of independents and undecided voters who fear for their jobs and pocket books.

POPSGallup Daily: McCain Moves Ahead, 48% to 45% McCain enjoying increase in support following convention Survey Methods For the Gallup Poll Daily tracking survey, Gallup is interviewing no fewer than 1,000 U.S. adults nationwide each day during 2008. The general-election results are based on combined data from Sep. 4-6, 2008. For results based on this sample of 2,765 registered voters, the maximum margin of sampling error is ±2 percentage points. Interviews are conducted with respondents on land-line telephones (for respondents with a land-line telephone) and cellular phones (for respondents who are cell-phone only). In addition to sampling error, question wording and practical difficulties in conducting surveys can introduce error or bias into the findings of public opinion polls.

POPSBrass Knuckles and Party Unity Bubba, feeling his pain, wants to talk about securing the Clintons' future, and particularly about all the good things he did when he was president. It's all about respect he counts as his due from the Democratic wing of the Clinton Party. It's not like Hillary didn't win everything fair and square. The Democrats here are more than a little concerned about their man's slide in the polls; Gallup on Monday said the race is tied at 45-all. The news may get worse. There's the story now afloat that an Obama half brother is living in grim poverty in Kenya, scratching out a bare living on a dollar a month while the senator lives in luxury on $5 million a year. Far worse, a summerlong controversy continues about when and where the senator was actually born, and whether the circumstances of his birth could cloud his eligibility to serve. The Obama campaign has been reluctant to produce a birth certificate. The Clintons are surely trying to help sort this out.

POPSCongress ratings plunge in poll Reid's comment speak volumes!! The Dems have completely refused to co-operate with the President whenever possible...they preferred to investigate and undermine the Administration. Talk about a 'do-nothing Congress'! Rasmussen had the percentage at 9.
