Impeachment Fever

++Bill Kristol said on the Sunday Talk Shows that no Republican with any influence advocates impeachment. He was dissing Sarah Palin's impassioned plea to impeach President Obama. Observers claim that John Boehner's "law suit" is away to steer away from impeachment, while Democrats believe that this is the first step to impeachment. The GOP is concerned that all the Tea Bag support for impeachment has been a big fund-raising plus for the Democrats.

++The Huffington Post/YouGov poll shows that 68% of Republicans favor impeachment, 37% Independents,and only 8% Democrats.

++The Rasmussen poll showed that in July 2007,39% of Americans wanted to impeach President George W. Bush. Today,7 years later, 32% want to impeach President Obama. That is the same number who say he is the worst President in the post WWII period.

++In a more relevant poll, PPP has Gov. Kasich at 45% and against 44% for the Democrat Ed Fitzgerald in the race for Ohio governor.

Getting Close

++The rain has started here. The Jersey Shore is being evacuated. It looks like this one will be big.

++Meanwhile President Obama has been on the phone with Chris Christie and other Governors in the storm's aim to reassure them he will provide anything they need.

++Meanwhile it looks like the Swing States are being firmed up. John Ralston reports that Neil Newhouse, the pollster for the Romney campaign,is extremely skeptical they can compete in Nevada. More news out of Colorado has made people like Nate Silver to up the probability Obama will also take it. 

++The PPP poll in New Hampshire has Obama 49 to 47, which was an increase over their last poll. People now put New Hampshire in Obama's column.

++In Ohio, PPP has Obama at 51 to 47 now, another increase over their last poll. Gravis has Obama 50 to 49 over Romney there. Nice news is PPP showing Sherrod Brown leading with 53 to 42. 

++A Consenus is emerging that Virginia with its 12 electoral points are now looking solidly Obama, which I doubted.

++Add the movements in the last few days up and President Obama is looking at 303--some other blogger got to 306. But I'll take 303.

++The two outstanding states which deserve watching are Florida and North Carolina. Nate Silver has Romney winning them with overwhelming odds yet anecdotally from the Early Voting and registrations this ain't necessarily so.

++Tomorrow prepare to be bummed out by the Politico/George Washington Swing State poll, which is supposed to show Romney improving his odds. I don't know. The electoral map is betting smaller by the hour.
