McCain predicts 11th-hour victory

LORDSTOWN, Ohio (UPI) -- Presumptive Republican nominee John McCain says he is the underdog but he expects to pull ahead in the final days of the U.S. presidential election campaign.

The Arizona senator said in Ohio the race between him and likely Democratic nominee Barack Obama likely will go down to the wire, Fox News reported.

"I'm the underdog. I'm behind," McCain said. "I've got to catch up and get ahead. And I expect to do that about 48 hours before the general election."

McCain made the comments the same day a poll indicated Obama leads him nationally and in several swing states.

He criticized Obama for refusing to meet his demands for a series of informal town hall meetings around the nation.

"I would meet him anywhere, anytime," McCain said. "I have kept days open."

McCain thinks he has a chance. HA! HA! Everyone in this country wants change. Everyone hates Bush! The college vote is liberal, they have been taught that way. Obama has promised virtually nothing other than change! Our 90%+ black vote will make history! We have waited decades to have a black president! I don't care if he is lacking in leadership, experience, knowledge, or even if he is a Muslim. He is black and he is going to be our next president! Go Obama Go!

McCalin the Winner!

P.S. I would suggest to Obama that he get rid of that smug "smile" of his. It is not becoming.

Obama is a NOTHING! Obama is a LIAR! Michelle Obama is a NOTHING! She wants more to be on television with the "ladies" on the view and show off her ignorance. Sen. McCain and his wife are elegant and deserve the WHITE House, not Mr. & Mrs. Obama who have no: religion, scruples; and only want to raise our taxes. UGGHHHH! YUUKKK! There are no words to describe my real disgust and distaste for the Obamas.

Obama's Evolution views

Is there anyone out there who believes in Creation that is stunned to hear Obama say that he believes in evolution and
that he believes evolution is totally compatable with Christianity.
