The Democrats may be poised for significant electotal victories next month, but they can’t help but feel that they are being lured into a trap.
From the Politico.
The Democrats are poised on the brink of victory. And they cannot stand it. The news is too good. Something has to go wrong.
On Saturday, Charlie Cook, an independent analyst and author of the Cook Report, wrote: “This election isn’t over, but it is looking very bad for Republicans — and seems to be getting worse.”
This plunged the Democrats into a deep gloom. Good news is always bad news for them.
On Monday, CNN’s John King announced: “Most top [people] in the McCain campaign now believe New Mexico and Iowa are gone, that Barack Obama will win New Mexico and Iowa. They are now off the dream list of the McCain campaign. More interestingly, most top people inside the McCain campaign think Colorado is gone.”
Democratic pessimism deepened when, that same day, Chris Cillizza and Shailagh Murray wrote in The Washington Post: “In the 13 battleground states that require voters to register by party, there are nearly 1.5 million more Democrats than at this time in 2004. The comparable Republican numbers, by contrast, have fallen by 61,000 during that time. Registered Democrats outnumber registered Republicans by more than 3.3 million in these same 13 battleground states, roughly double the edge — 1.8 million — they enjoyed over the GOP four years ago.”
The McCain campaign is beginning to resemble the Dole disater of 1996, so the Dems should sleep easy. There aren’t any surprises on the horizon since the GOP has no clue what they are doing.

3 Comments for Democrats Gloomy Over Victory Prospects
I am a Democrat and an Obama supporter during the primary at PA.
But I am white.
After the Obama Campaign, Murtha, CNN, NBCNews, ABC, “black leaders”, etc. have said about my color… that we, whites, are racists,…
I WILL DEFINITELY VOTE FOR MCCAIN/PALIN in November 2008.
Reasons: Economics… of race. Obama’s policy based on my own POV and conclusion, wants to distribute wealth….typical socialism in America tied up with black liberation theology.
These people forget that even the Whites are also suffering from economy both by Bush and heavily partisan Democrat Congress.
I don’t care if Obama wins… as long as Pennsylvania goes to McCain and … especially Palin… another trash to the CNN like me.
We,trashes to the media and elite Ivy League intellectuals, STICK TOGETHER.
DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND ESPECIALLY OBAMA ARE ALL HYPOCRITICAL!
If there is only one major sin of My Democratic Party, it’s racism. Just ask Democrat Senator Byrd, a former KKK leader!!!
Obama, trashing the whites, is the new leader of Racist. Whites have now been humiliated like the black people in the 18th and 19th centuries.
I thought we have already succeeded from RACE. But NO!!! OBAMA AND MY DEMOCRATIC PARTY CAN’T JUST FORGET THE PAST AND START WITH A BETTER FUTURE… EQUALITY OF COLORS… not BLACK SUPREMACY.
Ellen-
“After the Obama Campaign, Murtha, CNN, NBCNews, ABC, “black leaders”, etc. have said about my color… that we, whites, are racists…”
When did they all say that, Ellen? I’m white too, and I’ll be angry if I’m called a racist.
Please provide quotes so I know who to respond to.
“Obama’s policy based on my own POV and conclusion, wants to distribute wealth….typical socialism in America tied up with black liberation theology.”
Distribution of wealth is how capitalism works. Are you anti-capitalism?
Oh, I hate to agree with you on the election outcome, but that the Republican Party does not know what it is doing, I have to agree.
