Voting Dissapointment..

We voted yesterday. I was disappointed that there was no Communist candidate for president. I always loved reading their shpeal. Apparently they do have a candidate they are supporting though...
According to the Communist Party USA, Obama is "not a left candidate," but will help in "the struggle to defeat the ultra-right and turn our country on a positive path..." by overturning "Bush's third term."
The People's Weekly World argues that Obama will win handily:
"It is likely, most experts and pundits say, that the polls will tighten, making it look like the election is getting closer. However there are a number of factors which, taken together, can lead to a much bigger landslide than the polls predict."
Why? Voter perception. They list 18 "factors" that will lead to Obama's landslide. Not one of them is voters seeing his ideas as superior to McCain's. The top 3?
"1. The Cell Phone Issue: Many nowadays, especially young people, don’t have land lines, so most of the polls undercount a section of the populace that is heavily pro-Obama.
2. The African American Turnout Factor: Most polls have likely voter turnout models factored in, based on past turnout levels. If, as is very likely, African American turnout is significantly higher this year and even more Democratic than usual, that can change the outlook in states with a large African American population, mainly but not only in the South.
3. The Latino American Turnout Factor: The same is true for Latino voters, registered and energized by the immigrant rights upsurge several years ago. A greater Latino turnout can be enough to change the results in important swing states like Colorado and Nevada, and have a positive impact nationwide."

Looks like the Commies think (among other factors) young people and racists will win the election for Obama. At least they're honest.
