Burning Arizon: McCain the Fireman?
Amidst news that Obama continues to lead in totally meaningless “national polls”, we discover that John McCain may join Al Gore as Presidential candidates that fail to carry their home state.
Democrats are making a late play for Arizona as new polls show home-state Senator John McCain with a shrinking single-digit edge over Barack Obama.
A CNN/Time/Opinion Research Corporation poll released this week suggested McCain holds a 53 percent to 46 percent advantage. Other new surveys have indicated an even tighter race.
Okay – five points only five days out. Maybe it’s doable. Especially if your opponent is concentrating on not getting blownout:
Earlier this week, the McCain campaign and the Republican National Committee paid for negative robo-calls in the state, telling voters Obama’s election “invites a major international crisis he will be unprepared to handle alone.
“If Democrats win full control of government, they will want to give civil rights to terrorists and talk unconditionally to dictators and state sponsors of terror. Barack Obama and his Democratic allies lack the experience and judgment to lead America,” said the calls.
That amounts to a concession that McCain can’t win the Presidency. You gotta think it undermines his credibility when he claims “We got them right where we want them!”
