10/2/08- TWD's Agenda for the Day: The Landslide is Forming; Cubs Don't Blow It; Rays, Enjoy It

The polls sometimes don't lie. And thankfully, that seems to be the case right now (although we can never be too sure with these news organizations). The momentum of this election is shifting, and the ticket of Barack Obama and Joe Biden are on the verge of a landslide of things continue on their current form. And this turn of events, from a neck and neck race ("The polls are getting tight" was the tired cliche phrase you heard for the last three months) to now, isn't even primarily because of them.

Sports Thread #1 for 9/30/08- Do or Die Before Do or Die

As you can see here, the deadline day for registration is due as early as Friday. So if you aren't in your state and you still want to cast your vote there, you better get on it as soon as possible. Because if you don't, then your only option is to place your checkmark in your surrogate state. It comes down to one game today to see who will be this year's winners of the American League Central Division, when the Twins and the White Sox do battle today on Chicago's South side. Both of these two teams were suppose to finish third and fourth in the division, as the Indians and the Tigers were slated to be the last two standing here. The Read DemFromCt's A.P.R.U Specifically, from today's A.P.R.U, the "war on contraception" from the Bush Administration is going down. And a lot of people will be pissed about this. A lot. Have a good day here at TWD, and elsewhere!
