If Obama actually wins Ohio, it is merely the luscious cherry on top of the banana split landslide.

Here's the thing, about a month or so ago, I commented on how nationally syndicated  Urban radio host and urban radio stations were keeping African American and other Urban radio listeners (Hispanics, younger whites, etc) up on voter registration, voter surpression and GOTV.  Many people (mostly non-minorities) pooh-poohed it.  Well it's in states where most of the voting population is centralized in the large urban cities like Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and places in the South where if African Americans may be a large but still minority portion of the electorate, where having a larger turnout than ever before, could be a difference between Obama winning a state, or just losing a state by a smaller margin.

People should really not underestimate that.

Obama should run radio in Ohio, particularly in Hamilton County (Cincinnati) about McCain's ties to Charles Kealting, the Keating five, and McCain's role in agrressively pursuing the deregulation that led to the $200 billion dollar S&L scandal.

Financial pirates Keating, Milken, and Boesky all went to jail, McCain only got his wrist slapped. Keating was one of the early and biggest financial supporters of McCain in Arizona. But Keating's hometown is Cincinnati, where he's a long-time crony of Carl Lindner, Rob Portman, and the rest of the Republican Mafia that has run Hamilton County for years.

Resurrect the Keating-McCain connection in Ohio. It'll work.

lamh, they always underestimate it, because they always look to the past to predict the future, and ignore whatever is happening under their noses that is changing what the past was into what the present is.

And add Missouri to your list. I recently did some voter registration in North St. Louis, and I could barely find anyone who was not already registered. Compare that to four years ago, when I was able to get over 100 new registrations in half a day [which is how long I did this before I moved to another state], and was frequently met with extreme cynicism on the worthwhileness of voting. This time is very very different.

With the addition of this 51-45 result from a respected polling operation to two other similar numbers
