Gee, now isn't that a pretty headline?

Seems even Alaska is embarrassed by Palin Quayle!

The Obama Landslide in Alaska. It’s All How You Look at It.

Brand new poll numbers came out yesterday from Ivan Moore Research, here in Anchorage.

McCain-Palin - 53
Obama-Biden - 42

While McCain/Palin still has a double digit lead, frankly this is a really big deal.

Here is the way Alaska fell out for the last three presidential elections so you can compare:
McCain 53 - Obama 42 (results on 10/21)
Bush 62 - Kerry 35
Bush 59 - Gore 28
Dole 51 - Clinton 33

So, the McCain/Palin ticket in Alaska has managed so far to generate only slightly more interest than Bob Dole. Remember him? And that’s with our governor on the ticket! That’s not much in the way of bragging rights. As a matter of fact, I’m ready to call this a major psychological victory for Obama and the Democrats in Alaska. I feel quite comfortable, in my non-scientific way, to tell you that if Palin were not on the ticket, we’d have a horse race here, in the ruby-reddest-flaming-lobsterized- fire-engine-colored state you can imagine.

As an Alaskan, I’ve been spending a lot of time in the last two months with a metaphorical bag on my head, sinking down in my chair, but now I’m actually feeling a little proud of us. *satisfied sigh*

If the latest Palin debacles of wardrobe-gate, and travel-gate have any effect, and the race goes to a single digit spread, you’ll hear Democratic corks popping all over the state. That’s a landslide.

Oh, please, Polly.

An eleven-point lead for McCain is hardly an "OBAMA LANDSLIDE IN ALASKA"...

I'm noticing that a number of your thread headings are more "wishful thinking" than "truthful"...
