I understand the panic now. Everybody, breathe and reboot (quoting Carrie Bradshaw), it's gonna be ok.
Well, hopefully we're just getting ahead of ourselves...haha. I will admit, though, that the latest polling numbers have me very worried. I was watching "Meet the Press" this weekend and (I think it was on that show) they were talking about the different calculations being thrown around. In all of the calculations mentioned, Obama has a sizeable lead.

I'm hoping that the numbers are wrong, but I'm at least a little afraid that they're accurate.

Yes, it was Meet the Press who was looking at the numbers by electoral college delegate votes and current polls. However, there is still a month left. I'm not resting easy yet.

And I don't think you can rely on the polls anyway for a lot of different reasons although they're all we've got right now.

I'm not sure if it's possible for McCain to win, but I'd be surprised if Obama wins by some of the margins that he is presently showing in some states.

We'll see on election day.

I agree.... polls aren't the end all-be all. I don't want to get my hopes up! I believe this is still a very close race!
