August 20, 2008….A new poll shows John McCain has taken a five-point lead over Barack Obama in the race for President. The poll, conducted by Reuters/Zogby Thursday through Saturday, shows McCain leads 46 to 41 percent. Several articles I read attribute the change to McCain’s “attempts to discredit” Mr. Obama in the last few weeks. I think people are just paying more attention to what is going on as the election nears. Please, God, let it be so. There may be hope for this country yet. Oh, and by the way, regarding the “discrediting” of other people for political gain: payback is a .?.?.?, I mean payback is difficult to stomach. Eh, Mr. Obama?
