Mainstream media from CNN to Fox to Washington post continue to call this race a close one some even suggesting that McCain would eventually emerge winner in many ‘blue’ states; nothing could be further from the truth in my eyes.

Here are some glimpses of what’s happening on the ground. One candidate is pulling crowds of 30 to 40 thousand in his rallies compared to the other who is struggling to fill a road side cafe, Obama is a Rock-Star is what a close friend who is not a democratic supporter told me when he went to hear him in a rally in New Hampshire; One candidate is staying in the middle on all issues and the other is pulling on the sides enough to almost go over the edges on the ‘Right’, elections are won and lost in America by voting of the middle 30% of the voters with 35% registered to their parties remaining loyal on each side; One candidate has picked a VP candidate who is more qualified (to be the President, should the need arise) then even himself in some ways and the other’s choice of VP is making his own party members switching sides, Colin Powell and many others have crossed part lines and endorsed the democratic candidate Barak Obama citing Sara Palin’s candidacy a colossal judgment error on McCain’s part.
