As reported here, [p]olls showing John McCain tied or even ahead of Barack Obama are stirring angst and second-guessing among some of the Democratic Party's most experienced operatives, who worry that Obama squandered opportunities over the summer and may still be underestimating his challenges this fall.
"It's more than an increased anxiety," said Doug Schoen, who worked as one of Bill Clinton's lead pollsters during his 1996 reelection and has worked for both Democrats and independents in recent years. "It's a palpable frustration. Deep-seated unease in the sense that the message has gotten away from them."
The Dems are positively reeling from the announcement of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as Sen. John McCains' running mate, as evidenced by all the vile vitriol being spewed by both the Obama campaign and their surrogates in the MSM and the likes of the DailyKos and DU (and no, I'm not linking to those garbage sites. If you want to go there, look 'em up here).
The Dem "strategists" continue to make mistake after misstep in their arrogance, and can't figure out why they keep losing. Well, keep up the arrogance and the vicious easily debunkable ad hominem attacks, and we'll give you another four years to play the "what if?" game after John McCain and Sarah Palin take the Presidency and Vice Presidency.

As in most clueless non-thinking folks on the left, the idea is to spew as much noise and hatred as is possible to divert any possible discussion of ideas and concepts. Why, you might ask, do they so that? One major answer is that they have nothing but "feelings" about things and "talking points" that are directly from the idea-less noisemakers on the left.
Exactly!
