Sarah Palin, Crist had more important things to do on Saturday when he skipped a McCain football rally to go to Disney World.  Crist gave the following comment, ”[w]hen I have time to help, I’ll try to do that.” Is it me or is that the loud echo of distancing that I hear?

The RNC has moved into triage mode and are now concentrating on saving senate seats.  The RNC is specifically trying to prevent a filibuster-proof majority in the senate. The Democrats only need nine senate seats to get the 60 seat majority needed to prevent filibusters by the GOP.

Obama now holds a double-digit lead on McCain in four different battlground states.  Quinnipiac released its poll results yesterday for four key swing states.  In Colorado, Obama leads McCain 52 to 43.  In Michigan, Obama leads 54 to 38 percent. In Minnesota, Obama is up 51 to 40 percent, and in Wisconsin Obama leads McCain 51 to 43 percent.  Not a good day for McCain.
