McCain Or Not McCain? That Is The Polling Question!

Is the answer John McCain/Sarah Palin or Barack Obama/Joe Biden? Do the polls show absolutely, without any shadows of doubts, that Obama will definitely win the 2008 Presidential Election? If that were the case then there would never be any reason for Americans to vote at all.

No matter how much the liberal media may have convinced you that there is no chance either in Heaven or on Earth that Republicans will ever live in the White House again, there is still the possibility that the liberal media is wrong. If you believe them, then logic indicates that you might also be equally wrong.

If you are a conservative, please don't allow the liberal media to persuade you that Barack Obama has already won. Liberals want you to stay home, or in your office, wherever the case may be, and sulk all day. You will make their day if you don't vote tomorrow.

Actually, according to the Daily Tracking Poll at Rasmussen Reports, today's poll indicates:

Obama 52%
McCain 46%

Compare this to today's most recent ABC News/Washington Post poll:

Obama 53%
McCain 44%

Those 3 extra percentage points that ABC News and the Washington Post have given to Obama today might be a lot different tomorrow. They shouldn't count their chickens (or presidents) before they hatch, and neither should you.

Wordsmith FAQs

Question: What is the definition of a wordsmith?

Answer: Answers.com states that a wordsmith is:

"A fluent and prolific writer, especially one who writes professionally."
"An expert on words."
"A person who works with words; a skillful writer."

All of the above are true, and yet there is more to being a wordsmith, at least according to my interpretation of the word.

To me, a wordsmith is someone who cares passionately about words (a good example would be the poets Emily Dickinson and Dylan Thomas), and wishes to convey thoughts carefully in the words that are chosen to be written. A true wordsmith is ever mindful of how one's words will affect others, and it is a serious responsibility.

I chose the name "Conservative Wordsmith" after several hours of research, looking into archaic dictionaries for the perfect words for my Townhall blog name, which was where this all started on May 31, 2007.

I never had a block before the above date, didn't really know anything about blogging, and taught myself whatever I needed to know. Knowledge never ends, by the way, and if you happen to be one of those persons who thinks that it does, all I can tell you is that you're wrong.

Question: What about the conservative part? You don't always seem to be that conservative.

Answer: My unique take on conservatism stems from the fact that I used to be a liberal, and I fully understand both sides of the political spectrum. That conservative political understanding is intricately tied up with my conservative religious beliefs also.

I used to be passionately interested in New Age teachings, and have long abandoned these in favor of faith in the loving Savior of the World, the Lord Jesus Christ. His grace and forgiveness has brought me to this point in my life, a pivotal place of turmoil and change, and, were it not for Him, I well might not be here today to write these serious words.

Question: So the Conservative Wordsmith ™ is human like all of us?

Answer: Yes, so sorry to disappoint you, but I am all too human, and don't ever be fooled into thinking that anyone you know or esteem is perfect, because the only perfect and sinless one who ever walked this earth is the Lord Jesus Christ.
