1 Day to Go: Final Senate Prediction: Democrats Gain 7 Seats « Republican Ranting

Here’s my Senate prediction. I already did my Presidential election prediction. The colors ARE switched from what the normal media colors, so sorry about that, but that’s the way the website I use does it.

Live Analysis of the Final Presidential Debate « Republican Ranting

Alright, we’re moments away from the beginning of the debate. As always, I’ll be watching CNN, who will have a focus group (undecided voters in Ohio) with a tracking rating of how people like what they’re hearing (broken up by men and women). WordPress just added an option to add polls, so I’ll see if I can get that working after the debate is over and post a poll about who won.

Bonny Jacobs, the mother of Senator Biden’s wife, Jill, passed away earlier today. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Biden and Jacobs families. Considering all that Senator Biden has been through, this must be a hard time for him.

McCain Will Participate in Tonight’s Debate « Republican Ranting

Well, I was just about to publish a post about the fate of tonight’s debate not being known when news broke from the McCain campaign that McCain will in fact participate in tonight’s debate. I think this may look bad since it’ll seem like he’s reneging on his promise to suspend his campaign to resolve the economic crisis. We’ll see if Obama plays that card or not. Hopefully the Senate will pass the bill (but a good bill, not the bailout that many want) before the debate, not just for McCain’s sake, but for the sake of the country. The following is my original post:

So, yesterday I went down to Sterling Heights to the McCain/Palin rally, and was able to get a few pictures. I was about 15 rows back, so I was a little bit too far away to actually get to shake anybody’s hand.
