New Poll: Congrats, McCaniacs!

Ordinarily I don't read general election polls before Labor Day, but I'll make an exception for this one:

Reuters/Zogby has McCain up five points nationally, and even beating Obama on the economy, Obama's strongest issue.

OK, repugs: we admit it. McCain's got this one sewn up. The American People have listened to your insistent, irrefutable proof that Obama is Britney Spears in blackface and ruled in your favor.

Ignore that squeaking in the corner about how Obama's still ahead in state polls that give him the Electoral College. Forget how much can change in a week, not to mention 10 weeks. Don't even imagine how Senator Depends will react when somebody actually gets in his face live on national television.

Throw away that neighborhood GOTV plan; delete your McBush email distribution list.

You can relax now. You've done it - given Smirky/Darth its third term. Congratulations. It's over.

Pay no attention to the voter behind the curtain.
