Obama opened a five-point lead heading into Friday’s debate and has retained a five or six point edge every day since.

1. While I am happy, I am also saddened that

45% of Americans are so friggin' stupid as to vote for 4 more years of the same crap. As bad as things are, we should be at least 20 points up.

5. I agree

Especially states like Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Obama should be waaaay ahead in those places.

Sadly the rethug's brainwashing works well in the pulpit and on hate radio, making people vote against their own families self interests.
