It is true that we have to ignore the overall polls made. I checked the CNN polling, state by state, and most states have not been seriously polled yet! Even by Zogby! In most states polled, there is an error margin of 5%, which is quite big! And things can still change until the election day! Palin has only just been introduced, and many, just like me, do not know her skills yet!

On another subject, third parties are about to have a great impact this year! Nader is polling up to 8% in some states (CNN). In Nevada, Obama might win because Bob Barr takes about 10% of the votes according to Zogby!

Besides. There's something wrong with all polls done. CNN has Nader well over Barr, however Zogby is giving the impression that there will be a 3-way race, not with Nader, who polls 1 to 2% in most states, but with Barr, who gets 5 to 10% in many states!

Hey Ohio and Michigan are FPM country. If FPM decides to back one of the two candidates, he will carry these 2 states... hahahaha, nice to feel important :)

If FPM had to endorse a candidate, I don't see anyone other than Ralph Nader as a more logical choice! Nader is the only candidate that promotes change... Not only for Middle East policies, but also internal policies. He should be in the C&R bloc!

Yes dodzi, it's an interesting read if you appreciate Stewart's humor in the daily show.

Yes, sure change that will never happen. LOL

Anyway, I was just kidding. FPM cannot endorse anyone officially. Wouldn't that be foreign interference in the affairs of the USA? hahaha, that's funny.

But FPM supporters in the USA, like myself, can always endorse someone :)

Nader was bold enough to criticize President Bush for his handling of the July War of 2006. Based on this letter, I think Nader is Pro Aoun.
