The final Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Election 2008 shows Barack Obama with 52% of the vote while John McCain is six points back at 46%. One percent (1%) of voters say they’ll select a third-party option while 1% remain undecided.

Meanwhile, Gallup’s double digit predictions didn’t fare so well.

I guess we have to move the term from Statement to Thumping according to the ASC “Language of Victory and Defeat”.

Looks like a thumping. And may I point out, I called 52/46 in my own predictions. Does that make me smarter than Gallup?

This is just the kind of thing that has led us to the divided country that we have today. What is wrong with you that your first thought is now how we can come together as a people and start repairing our economy and regaining our stature in the world?

How can I start to repair an economy when I will be bankrupted by the new administration’s announced policies. I did have money I have worked forty years to get and the rules in the making will take it all away from my family and force the dissolution of that engine (putting fifty people out of work) just to pay the taxes. I’m very sorry for the next generation. They have no reason to get and education and then work as hard as I have and then have nothing.
