Down to the Wire Desperation

As we approach the final five days before Election Day, it started out as a quiet day with talk of George W. Bush's new book, Decision Points, to come out on November 9, and Jon Stewart's interview of the President.

The Internet this evening was abound with a couple of blockbuster stories that were broken on this date to impact the election, just like the Bush 1976 DWI Arrest broke the weekend before the Election of 2000.

First, out of Florida. Florida is not a stranger to election irregularities, but news broke that Democrat Senate nominee Kendrick Meek was pushed by Bill Clinton to quit the race. Florida is a state with early voting, and it remains to be seen how this may have impacted the race, considering that nearly 2 million Floridians have already voted. This is very unfortunate on two fronts. First, it makes me wonder if we might have had another Sestak Controversy in the making. Second, it sickens me that Democrats are abandoning their own principles and are backing the ultimate chameleon politician in Charlie Crist because they fear Marco Rubio could be presidential material in the coming years. That abandonment should be troubling to any voter.

Up the east coast in Delaware, a disgusting smear (WARNING: Content may not be appropriate for all ages) broke tonight about Christine O'Donnell that is, not only the ultimate cheap shot, but in reality, a big nothing! Michelle Malkin wrote about Gawker's history of smearing Conservative women to show how they are not new at this. Delaware voters should know this history. Because this is a smear on a Republican woman, NOW did not take a direct stand against it, showing their double standard they clearly showed in incident where Jerry Brown or someone on his campaign referred to Meg Whitman as a whore. This attack on O'Donnell will backfire and leave a bad taste in the mouth of many voters, especially since Chris Coons is on the run and has cancelled his remaining debates with O'Donnell. As I said earlier, with this smear and the Obama-Biden visit to a supposedly safe Democrat state, this race is much closer than the polls state!

With five days to go and many politicians hanging on for dear life, the acts of desperation could very well be like nothing we've ever seen before!
