The Mason-Dixon Polling Company, which had the best overall record in the 2000 and 2002 election cycles, is out with new numbers from the 2000 red states and 2000 blue states. The Red States break down as follows (B-K-N):
CO: 49-43-1 (+6)
MO: 49-44-x (+5)
NH: 48-45-1 (+3)
OH: 46-45-x (+1)
WV: 49-44-1 (+5)
NV: 52-42-1 (+10)
A surprise is Nevada, which many speculated would be a true swing state this year trending towards Kerry. More surprising are the numbers for the Blue States that are slowly leaking out.
PA: 45-46 (-1)
OR: 45-46 (-1)
WI: 45-45 TIE
IA: 49-43 (+5)
NM: 49-44 (+5)
MI: 46-47 (-1)
MN: 47-45 (+2)
It should be troubling for Kerry's campaign that Bush is leading in all five of the red states listed and in Mason-Dixon's Florida poll and Bush is ahead in 3 of the Gore Blue States.

EXCOMMUNICATED: John Kerry Excommunicated by The Vatican
Catholic World News is reporting today that John Kerry has been EXCOMMUNICATED by the Catholic Church.
Kerry said to be excommunicated
Los Angeles, Oct. 18 (CWNews.com) - A consultant to the Vatican has said Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry has incurred the penalty of excommunication from the Catholic Church.
The Catholic World News story also highlights the strong anti-Kerry sentiment inside the Catholic Church:
"the original canonical complaint of heresy against Kerry had received so much response from the public that the tribunal of the Archdiocese of Boston has been deluged with thousands of letters from ordinary Catholics who wish to add their names to the complaint."
Not even following the tenants of his own faith that he has been "preaching" on the trail and in black churches each weekend.

The Defiance County Sheriff's Office arrested Chad Staton, age 22, of Stratton Ave., Defiance, on a charge of False Registration, in Violation of Section 3599.11 of the Ohio Revised Code, a felony of the fifth degree.
The SheriffÕs Office alleges that Staton filled out over 100 voter registration forms that were fictitious. Staton was to be paid for each registration form that he could get citizens to fill out. However, Staton himself filled out the registrations and returned them to the woman who hired him from Toledo, Ohio. Deputies allege that Staton was paid crack cocaine for the falsified registrations.
Defiance Deputies along with Toledo Police Department detectives conducted a search warrant of a residence on Woodland in Toledo, believed to be the home of the woman who hired Staton to solicit voter registration. Officers confiscated drug paraphernalia along with voter registration forms from the home. The occupant of the home, Georgianne Pitts, age 41, advised law enforcement, along with Ohio B.C.I.&I., that she had been recruited by Thaddeus J. Jackson, II, of Cleveland, to obtain voter registrations. Pitts admitted to paying Staton crack cocaine for the registrations in lieu of money.
A business card provided by Pitts indicated that Jackson is the Assistant NVF Ohio Director of the NAACP National Voter Fund.
The initial complaint received by the Sheriff's Office came from the Defiance County Board of Elections. The Board had received the 100 plus registration forms from the Cuyahoga Board of Elections that had been submitted to the Cuyahoga Board by the NAACP National Voter Fund
