If John King says 'Game Over' then it really is. He is a complete shill.

[Cosmic Charlie]

He is throwing up his hands and giving up the ghost.

Enjoy it, mateys!

We will take the Main Deck come November 4.

1. Holy shit. Did he???

[davidpdx]

2. He did say that and it was pretty shocking

[BumRushDaShow]

3. Wow. Hope someone has a YouTube of that! For the record you know...

4. John King doesn't like being accused of being partial

So he tries to score it even. He's scared of the audience backlash.

6. Really?

Every time I see him he seems quite obviously in the tank for McCain.

[Abacus]

5. His punditry is awful

but he runs a good smartboard

7. My friends ... (hehe) ... GAME FREAKIN' OVER!!

King did say, in fairness, "if these numbers hold up" (referring to the poll results that show Obama with a 20+ point edge in the economy and handling the financial crisis), then game over.

But I think the numbers will hold up. GAME OVER!!!

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA!!

Damn that sounds good!!

8. McCain jumped the shark tonite. n/t

[vaberella]

9. Yeah. That crazy fingerpainter has been on the other side for a while.

I guess he gave up.

[occe]

10. What channel is he on? n/t

[Phoonzang]

11. Yeah I almost spit my drink all over my computer when I heard that....but

note that he said if the polls are like this in 20 days. Not game over now.

12. John King is actually pretty cool

I met him yesterday. He was in town covering a local factory that suddenly closed its doors with no notice to the workers and at the time wasn't even assuring the workers that they would be paid for the 4 days they worked last week. Workers on Thursday had health insurance and no idea the company was closing, but not on Monday. Some had surgeries scheduled or are pregnant. He seemed really at a loss for words about how that company was treating it's employees.

Anyway, I ran into him by chance when he wasn't really interviewing anyone. We chatted about our kids, the economy, the local company, our local Dem efforts in our little red County... He's a regular guy that "gets it". He showed empathy and understanding when I told him how bad things were and how when I was canvassing and talking to people working 3-4 jobs between the husband and wife they were just making it and didn't know how they would pay their heating bills this winter.

I like John King the person.

13. David Brooks on PBS said Senator Obama looked presidential.

Hell has frozen over.
