A Damn Fine Time Sink:
Fantastic Contraption
Propz to that bastard ValsTony for the time-consuming link

MoveOn.org wants me to post this, and I needed something to push that other Libertarian post off the front page, so here you go:

1. The polls may be wrong. This is an unprecedented election. No one knows
how racism may affect what voters tell pollsters–or what they do in the
voting booth. And the polls are narrowing anyway. In the last few days,
John McCain has gained ground in most national polls, as his campaign has
gone even more negative.

2. Dirty tricks. Republicans are already illegally purging voters from the
rolls in some states. They’re whipping up hysteria over ACORN to justify
more challenges to new voters. Misleading flyers about the voting process
have started appearing in black neighborhoods. And of course, many
counties still use unsecure voting machines.

3. October surprise. In politics, 15 days is a long time. The next McCain
smear could dominate the news for a week. There could be a crisis with
Iran, or Bin Laden could release another tape, or worse.

4. Those who forget history… In 2000, Al Gore won the popular vote after
trailing by seven points in the final days of the race. In 1980, Reagan
was eight points down in the polls in late October and came back to win.
Races can shift–fast!

5. Landslide. Even with Barack Obama in the White House, passing universal
health care and a new clean-energy policy is going to be hard. Insurance,
drug and oil companies will fight us every step of the way. We need the
kind of landslide that will give Barack a huge mandate.
