There was some talk here over the weekend about all the backlash Obama was going to take for insulting a blue collar worker. Just wanted to let everyone know that it still looks good:

If Obama wins by three points, that is a huge victory, given the number of votes that will be cast.

Yes, but Frank Luntz said on Bill Maher that Kerry looked like the tree that threw apples at Dorothy, he also said McCain really doesn't "connect" with the majority of people (middle class).I think Obama has more charisma.
