You must be looking at a different line chart than me. If you scroll over the line chart a yellow line appears. The yellow line will show you each candidate's average on a daily basis. Yesterday Obama was at 49.8% and today he is at 49.4%...dropping...

McCain yesterday was at 43.6% and today he is at 44.1%..gaining..

Maybe I'm a bored housewife or stay at home dad....taking a break from the kids indulging in an entertaining discussion.

I'm interested in how this election affects the direction of the country and what's best for the nation (including family and friends on whole).....since you asked. Since I may have been presumptuous in assuming you were wasting time interacting with me, then I suppose I'm not in a position to do the same about your assumption that I'm wasting my time here....but I really think you're missing the boat on this.

I don't think I have to be extremely passionate to get anything out of this thread. People have brought up some great points and I've learned some things and that makes it a positive thing for me. I have already acknowledged that I don't meet your standards.....isn't it up to you to accept that?

The ad he had talking to the people played this morning. I think the decision the Obama camp made was to show they are not Kerry or Gore. They will fight back. I don't care for how some in the media are trying to paint Obama with the same brush as McCain.

This is all McCain has left, and if he gets himself on tv tonight and brings this stuff up.................Obama should bring up this 90-year-old woman who tried to kill herself because she thought she would lose her home, or this man who wiped out his entire family because he couldn't find a job.

It hurts my feelings to hear a fellow Amanda fan say that. It's up to you.

I'm not sure what I said that made you think I was supporting McCain's use of "gook". I was trying to explain..why he may have said what he said. I did not mean to condone it.

    • -- Weirdest red carpet ever at the Nurses' Ball. Every conversation was filled with snark and shade or outright insults, and we even got an on-camera arrest of Tracy -- while Congressman Drew (who's never in DC) stood there. I guess it was more interesting than the usual. -- Why did Gio walk the carpet with Joss? -- Sonny is usually escaping mobsters who want to kill him. So of course he accompanies his granddaughter on the carpet. On camera.
    • I agree with all of this.

    • I'm not Jason but O'Connor was not listed in Monday's episode with the BDWs.
    • As much as I love the Nurses Ball, the campiness of it all always comes off as strange and a little cringey, because GH isn't often like that. But whatevs, I'm looking forward to seeing what happens. The surprise with Kai was kinda sweet. I wish they had spent more time on that, and given us more of Trina's POV, instead of rushing through it and talking more about his surgery.  But yeah, poor Gio. He really should've escorted Emma instead of Joss

       I'm looking forward to seeing him perform though  And, poor Tracy too. She will never be the bad guy in this whole situation with Sonny, Drew, etc., no matter how Chris and Elizabeth (or Frank) choose to write it. Btw, since this is the Nurses Ball, where the hell is Nurse Liz?

    • Considering that a soap opera hasn't been launched in over 25 years, I think the show is doing well. In 2025, you're not going to get a soap opera on the level of soaps you watched before the 1990s for a variety of reasons. - All scenes are filmed out of order.  No longer do shows do the live to tape process. - No longer are there rehearsals before filming the episodes. - Most of the greats retired/passed away without teaching a lot of the new generation how to produce or write a soap opera in the pre 2000 way. Also, this isn't filmed where soap operas were filmed so the show is using local talent that is hitting it out of the park.  It reminds me of the CBN soap Another life that used local talent in the Virginia beach area. Lastly, soaps take several months to get going.. and I think the show is in good shape after 56 episodes (at least compared to other soaps that started in the late 80s and 90s like Generations, SunSet Beach, Passions, etc)
    • Cool, thank you for the perspective - helps me appreciate the story more. Totally makes sense - we know BB was so frustrated with the state of the show after its first 6 months that he was ready to cancel it.
    • I couldn't agree more. It's all subjective.
    • It should be better for a show airing in 2025. But that's just my take.
