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

This is an article by Greg Palast that outlines several ways
the vote could
be stolen. Mr. Palast is a former professor at Indiana
University where he
taught economics and statistics.
