Desperate

Sending out your paid pollster to proclaim "you still have a chance" is pretty much the campaign equivalent of a man telling a woman he's just getting "acquainted" with, "my other penis is not only not tiny but it works".

Somehow I have the feeling Tucker Bounds and Douglas Holtz-Eakin of the McCain campaign have used this line.

Remember fellas, it's not the size of the boat, it's whether it can fucking float in the ocean.
