"..One question, are [Republican] pollsters able to contact these newly registered voters?"

Yes, they are. The trouble is, they don''t want to. That would expose the voter fraud lie.

Title should read "Deadbeats leading in registration."

I think you are confusing Democrats with Republicans, you know, the Corporate Welfare Queens (and Kings).

CBS: Since 2006, the Democrats have added 2.1 million voters in the 28 states that registered voters by party affiliation in both 2006 and today. The Republicans have lost nearly 344,000 voters in the same states.

_____

These are very compelling numbers. One question, are pollsters able to contact these newly registered voters?

It is being reported that at BO''s Denver thing, American Flags were thrown into the trash. Boy Scouts rescued these flags and will bring to John McCain''s rally in Colorado Springs. What is wrong with this guy. He has dissed Small-Town America, his wife was not proud of America until recently, and now he and supporters have thrown American flags into the trash. We must learn his reason for doing this, before the election.

It looks like the Republicans will have to work extra-hard this time to prevent legal voters from voting, and/or manipulate the results.

They are going to have their work cut out for them.

It will be interesting to see if they can pull it off.

McCain/Palin you can''t fool all of the people all the time. You had the last 8 YEARS, YOU BLEW IT.

Come November, its time for republicans to be junked in the trashcan of history.

McCain claims he is going to cut taxes, yipeeee..,but according to the figures released today 84,000 jobs lost, IF THERE ARE NO JOBS, WHAT GOOD WILL A TAX CUT DO, THERE IS NO INCOME TO TAX.

FLAGS WERE DISCARDED WHERE? SMALL MINDS - SMALL ISSUES...what an idiot! I live in big predominently WHITE county in the south, a REPUBLICAN stonghold big on patriotic yap yap and every 4th of July the parade route is a sea of Amercian FLAGS as far as you can see, passed out to parade''goers, courtesy of local businesses, organizers and hopefuls running for office. And like every year, at the end of the parade the streets & nearby lawns are covered with FLAGS...the garbage cans are filled with FLAGS...so what''s the point??? Are you saying the Boy Scouts in my county don''t give a *** OR that Republicans in the south are patriotic hypocrits? America is in deep doodoo with big issues right now & we''re all fed up with SMALL MINDS & SMALL ISSUES centered around whose the most friggin patriotic...GIVE IT A BREAK!

McCain policy = Bush policy. If that''s been working for you, vote Republican. If not, vote Democrat.

Oh, I see.....do ya mean the "high-tech" approach whereby you "fix" our voting machines? LOL LOL

Check the voting machines in Florida and Ohio...

Made by a company that regularly donates to Republicans

They stole the last 2 elections, they''re going for 3

Of course the dems are leading in voter registration. I just wonder how many of the new voters are living and not illegals.

These are my unsolicited two cents. Before you register to vote, do this:

First, try as best you can, to decide where you want the USA to be both domestically and internationally in 2012.

Second, strip away all of the mud, excess baggage, doodoo, etc as you can from what you have learned about Obama and McCain.

Third, after you have done the second step, decide which one of the two men is most likely to get us to where you want the USA in 2012. Vote and support that choice.

But, please vote. Too many good men/women have suffered and died to give you that right.

Young people especially are starting to realize that our whole future could ride on this election--whether to continue the ruinous policies of the Bush-Cheney regime, no matter how fast the Republicans try to run away from them, or to elect a true leader with real vision for the future.

"Squeaky" McCain and "Screechy" Palin aren''t it.

And, do you really want to listen to the voices on those two for the next several years? The wooden, squeaky delivery of McCain, or the glass-shattereing shrillness of Palin?

I think not.

No more. No thanks. No McCain!

You''re right, it was Romney''s father who was governor of Michigan.

They''re still not going to appreciate it.

And a crappy gov. at best... he didn''t run for re-election because he knew he would lose, so he ran for President instead,,,, he''s a fool and a Republican tool.... running for Gov. he was pro choice, running for Prez he was pro life.... talk about a flip flopper.
Just like McSame

Of course the Democrats are leading in voter registration. The republicans squandered EVERYTHING since 9/11, putting the country on the wrong path and alienating all of our former allies to the point that our go-it-alone BS has become toxic. All of this is attributable to the Republicans. Hell, some republicans aren''t even mentioning the fact that they are republicans as they run for re-election. Quick question: How many times did John Sydney McCain III use the word Republican in his speech? That should tell you all you need to know.
