You know, there's something more important than poll numbers. Poll numbers don't help you govern in a proper way, the rightful way, and it clearly doesn't give you a lot of wisdom. I mean, look at Bush. He won 2 elections, and had Karl Rove at the bean counter- but did it help Bush become a good President?
The same goes here: so what if Palin and McCain has the poll numbers now? It doesn't mean they will be good if they are elected- if most of us have to come to terms with such a consequence. That doesn't mean they are right on the environment. That doesn't mean that they are right in any assertion about any war with Iran. That doesn't mean they are right in extending the Bush tax cuts. That doesn't mean they are right in appointing more conservative judges so that society can be managed by government and special interests. That doesn't mean that they are right to isolate Russia and China just because both countries aren't democratic.
In the end, the Obama-Biden team is right about many things, and do the things that are required to repair the damage done by the Bush administration. The only question is that many heartland Americans are leery about change, and the world outside of their world, and they have many qualms about candidates talking about change and globalisation, let alone a candidate who happens to be black. But if the question is about economical security, financial security, and social security and social safety, the democrats have it right. Now their challenge is to make it palatable for all Americans.
Because in the end, McCain and Palin is more of the same, and not a change team. Why is it so? That's because their records say so.
