Unexpected State Polling

In some important states (Ohio, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Florida), there is something that begins to show rather frequently --- Hillary matches up better with McCain than Obama does. Its too early to think much of it (Obama is in the middle of his worst week yet). But if it continues, Hillary will be able to make an argument that Obama is weak in the states that matter most in the electoral college. If the polling I have seen in the past week or so holds, that argument will be meaningful to party insiders because the numbers are significant.

John McCain's Arms

"When they had finished removing my gear and clothes, I felt a sharp pain in my right knee. I looked down and saw that my right foot was resting next to my left knee at a 90 degree angle.

I cried out: 'My God, my leg!

Someone smashed a rifle butt into my shoulder, breaking it. Someone else stuck a bayonet in my ankle and groin."

- Adapted and extracted from Faith of My Fathers, by John McCain
