I've heard the same excuses countless times before, and yet...I've been disappointed time and time again as the polls in South Carolina prove to be more or less accurate. Listen, I'm as big a bleeding-heart liberal as anyone from South Carolina, but quite frankly, I'm quickly losing hope, especially when it comes to Mr. Obama's chances in South Carolina. Am I saying don't show up at the polls? Hell no! We need you--and every other yellow-dog Democrat and fed-up independent in the state--to go to the polls and express their dissatisfaction. I want the state of South Carolina to prove me wrong for a change. But I've been trying to get those same disaffected voters to the polls for years now, and I'm sure you can tell how successful I've been at it... Which partially explains why I moved to New Mexico this election cycle to work the Congressional races. At least I have a fighting chance of being on a WINNING campaign this time around...

Who'd they call? What time of day? Did they balance race, age, gender in this poll? All of that is doubtful .... And don't forget the cell phone factor. I believe many Republicans are sick of their own party and will sit this race out,especially older Republican voters. I can't tell you how many people I hear that say they won't vote for either candidate. Then you have tons of people who will turn out to vote Graham out of the Senate but all of this is far far from any done deal. I predict SC will go blue Obama. All of this if anyone believes polls.
