46 days to go--The Financial Meltdown...my thoughts

Sorry, folks...I am trying to write about this mess...but because of the difficulties involved, it is taking more time than I thought. I will try to have a synopsis this weekend!

As for the presidential race...Electoral-vote.com has a good overview of several new polls out yesterday and today (a total of 68 state polls--either The One was closer to the real number of States in the Union than any of us realized, or there are several States being polled more than once!). It seems that the State polls continue to become closer in several swing states--CO, NH, IA in particular. Can it be that OR could come into play?

Current electoral prediction:
Wednesday--McCain 257, Obama 247, 34 tied (PA and VA)
Yesterday--McCain 274, Obama 243 (270 needed to win), 21 tied (PA)
Today--McCain 265, Obama 252, 21 tied (PA)

New Mexico switched back and forth on Wednesday to Thursday,
Colorado switched back and forth yesterday and today.

Watch an animated map of the electoral vote since June...
