McCain-Palin Giving Up on Michigan: Beginning of the End?

Obama in Michigan October 2 2008
US Democratic presidential candidate Illinois Senator Barack Obama arrives at a rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Obama said Thursday the deregulatory zeal endorsed by his Republican rival John McCain had driven the economy to the brink of disaster, as he urged the full Congress to pass a rescue plan

Apparently Team McCain is pulling out of Michigan and will concede the state to Barack Obama. Remembering that John Kerry won Michigan in 2004 by 3.4 % and Al Gore in 2000 by 5.2%

The latest battleground state polls show McCain-Palin cratering in support.

Is this the beginning of the end?

Probably.

Economic turmoil and McCain’s failure to address the concerns of the American people with regards to the economy have caused this downward spiral. The American electorate are not happy and will punish President Bush and the GOP, as they did in 2006.

Team McCain can turn things around but it will take a dedicated effort and some help.
