Don't listen to any polls, especially now. They are just tools used to drive opinion. They under sample and over sample and count these and don't count those. It's all BS. The only pools worth looking at are the ones taken about three days before and election, and depending on who the pollster is, even those should be suspect. Want to know what the polls say, just watch the candidates, they'll tell you with their behavior what their internal polling says.
Obama just came out with an "African American's for Obama" program in black churches. That tells me he ain't doing as well among working class black folks as he would like. Probably something along the lines of they might stay home. There you go.
Gee, given the silence in the media over Obama's campaign innovation, I'm guessing now would be a good time for Romney to start a "Whites for Romney" program.
The Blog: A compendium of thoughts on politics, world affairs, economics, pop culture and social issues, from the center right perspective of me--Bryan McGrath--a University of Virginia graduate who spent a career in the world's greatest Navy keeping my mouth shut about politics and social issues (ok, publicly keeping it shut). Those days are over! Pull up a chair and chime in where you will. Keep it clean, civil, concise and relevant.
The Fish: The fish is a "coat of arms" for the blog, symbolizing three formative influences in the life of the blog founder. The first is his experience at the University of Virginia--symbolized most importantly by the fish itself, or a caricature of a "Wahoo", the fish we have acquired as an informal nickname. Additionally there is the sword, the sword of a Cavalier. It is not wielded in a threatening manner, as this is a civil blog. But it is there, should it be needed. Thirdly, there is the influence of 21 years in the Navy--symbolized by the anchor on the Wahoo's fin (and again, the sword) . Finally, there is the bowler, tuxedo, and monocle, symbols of a refined, intellectual conservatism, or what I seek to encourage here.
The Policy: I take FULL responsibility for what I write. I will not be held responsible for the content of my comments section--as long as it is civil and passes my own inscrutable sniff tests, it will appear. If the comment offends you, that is on you.
