I’m not going to rant or rave about the state of politics today. I’m just going to cut to the chase. It comes down to just one thing and one thing only:
Will the vast number of newly registered voters show up on Tuesday.
That’s it. That’s all there is to it. Period.
Many of them are Democrats registered by the well-organized Obama campaign and they’re in key states. So the numbers heavily favor Obama.
But, many of them are also young. And young voters are notorious for not showing up at the polls on election day. However, many of these young voters DID show up for the Democratic
primaries and caucases and were a major proponent of Obama’s victories against Hillary.
I don’t know the answer to my own question above.
I’m guessing that when the dust settles, the Palin effect will diminish and perhaps even backfire. But that’s just a guess.
There’s about 50 days left and depending on how you look at it, that’s very little time or a lot of time, for things to change.
