Walt Whitman said, in 1884:
If I should need to name, O Western World, your powerfulest scene and  
show,
'Twould not be you, Niagara - nor you, ye limitless prairies - nor  
your huge rifts of canyons, Colorado,
Nor you, Yosemite - nor Yellowstone, with all its spasmic geyserloops  
ascending to the skies, appearing and disappearing,
Nor Oregon's white cones - nor Huron's belt of mighty lakes - nor  
Mississippi's stream:
This seething hemisphere's humanity, as now, I'd name - the still  
small voice vibrating -America's choosing day...

Where does he figure the possibility of bad polling?  The only thing that 
indicates 'any' Obama lead much less the 'landslide porpotions' lead that the 
MSM is touting, is polls.  In my life, polling has been notoriously 
inaccurate at times. I'm hoping for a McCain upset, or a tie, just to quelch 
the d*mn 'mandate' talk ....................bobford
