In the Washington Post story. He says it looks "too rosy" but still believes OBama's got the lead.

That poll does seem like an outlier. Plouffe thinks so. Still, you would think that such a significant lead would warrant more coverage on TPM Election Central than right-wing smear running on TV in Michigan.

No, VA governor is limited to one term only.

This is true. I'm guessing that at the end of the day, he is too cautious/cowardly to take the plunge.

Regardless of what we may think of Powell, his would be a helpful endorsement.

These are from September 4th. Neither poll factors in Palin's or McCain's speeches. The new ones will come out later this morning and early afternoon. Then we'll see.

Exactly. A successful speech will grant her a reprieve. Ok. But if the McCain camp continues to stonewall the press, it might ugly for her again. I've seen her interviewed - she comes across quite well. Of course, she's talking only about Alaska.

It's too late. Who is on the schedule who will pikc up the hammer and pound McCain? Biden might but it has to be relentless and delievred by multiple surrogates.

Warner's not going to do it and Clinton will talk about herself and Obama. Another night wasted. This is the 2004 Convention all over again.

Nice ad.

"Positive messages emanating from the convention"?

Shit - does this mean that we won't be tearing the hide of McCain? Wasn't this the trap the Dems fell into in 04? I'm expecting/hoping that speakers will be a lot of tougher on McCain than we were on Bush four years ago.
