Pollster Zogby: McCain’s Attack Ads Aren’t Working on Voters
His polls have been among the most favorable to Sen. John McCain, but pollster John Zogby doesn’t see the Republican’s latest assault on Sen. Barack Obama’s past friends as a winner on Election Day. Talking to Whispers while on a book tour to promote his latest, The Way We’ll Be, Zogby said that McCain should get back on message and off his campaign’s latest hot-button issue: slamming Obama for long-ago ties to a Weather Underground radical, Bill Ayers. “McCain is off message, and this Bill Ayers stuff, it just doesn’t cut it with people, not with their pocketbooks looking the way they are. Nobody cares about this stuff,” said Zogby, whose latest poll had Obama up, 47-45, against McCain. He also stated what’s fast becoming conventional wisdom: that only an Obama stumble can stop the Democrat from becoming the first black to win the presidency. “It’s entirely up to Obama from here on in,” Zogby told Whispers.

Attacks on Obama's associations
Maybe the attacks on Obama regarding his associations are not working because Obama supporters are too blind, deaf and dumb to see that Obama's ideas are a mirror reflection of Alinsky's and Ayer's social agenda. Make no mistake about it, all three of them detest capitalism, and are hell-bent on destroying the foundation that this great USA is built on. If you have doubts about the impact of these radicals on Obama, I urge you to read as much as you can find on Ayers and Alinsky; then listen to Obama's plans and ideology; then read his books. Your doubts will be erased.
Food for Thought
Has snyone thought maybe McCain relly doesn't want to win this election.Maybe he did at first, but changed his mind once he got in. So rather than dropping out he picked a running mate no one knew,and who knows nothing thinking,"hey, no one will be dumb enough to vote for me now". But it backfired, because ther is always some one who will follow anything and anybody. Plus they say you age about 10 to 20 years while you're in office. do the math how old will he be in 4 years 82-92. PLEASE.
Wake up, people.
The media hasn't done its job or vetted Obama at all.
Only in the last couple of weeks has it remotely begun to pay attention. At this point, most people have overdosed on the Kool-Aid. Those who actually have done the investigating about Obama's past and who have tried to get the news out there have been dismayed to find that no one wants to hear it.
I'm shocked America would want a president who sat in a racist church for 20 years and listened to a pastor spew anti-American hatred from the pulpit. A church whose newsletter publishes actual diatribes from the terrorist organization Hamas, A church whose pastor remarked on the missing teen in Aruba, Natalie Holloway, by saying "..One white girl from Alabama gets drunk at a graduation trip to Aruba, goes off and gives it up while in a foreign country and that stays in the news for months." This is Obama's spiritual mentor of 20 years?
Obama's entire circle of "friends" and associates is rife with corruption, hatred of America, cronyism, and Chicago politics. I honestly don't know what sort of people he would need to hang out with for people to get a clue. I hope McCain and Palin attack him even more, though from the response of the American people, all indications are that they approve wholeheartedly.
