SOCIAL: A helpful note for those who are obsessing over daily polls

[Randall Isaac]

I agree.  I haven't been going out of my way to give to Obama since he's got
more money than God at this point.  But I have started donating to
noonprop8.com.  I'm wondering if conservatives who have given up on McCain will
increase funding for the Prop 8 folks just to get a conservative win somewhere.

I'm also worried that with Obama's lock on California progressives will just
stay home and not be out to vote against Prop 8. (but I guess that could have
the same effect on conservatives).
