4. VA has gone blue

[book_worm]

6. Not bad for Fox/Ras--Ohio is closer, VA is closer (plus SUSA had O up by 4)

I don't believe that CO went from +3 O to +3 M

[MadBadger]

9. Yea, and Ohio we are getting closer, but in PA we are losing our lead?

OH PLEASE!

[Teaser]

13. PA stays blue

Ras result is wrong.

This is what happens when you reweight partisan balances on the fly.

8. we are supposed to believe a poll put out by Fox/Rasmussen are you KIDDING!!!!

[PCIntern]

10. Oh yeah that makes a lotta sense...

we hold a convention in a purple state and drop 6 pts overnight...they hold a convention in a blue state and go up, what 12?

I don't think so...

11. Here come the handwringers....

And 9 times out of 10 they are people who are doing nothing to help but sit at their keyboard.

12. This is GOOD NEWS! Look closely at VA. If this poll is correct

then we still WIN!!!!

I've been saying if we win the Kerry states plus, CO, NM and IA WE WIN!!!!!!!

Well, if this poll is correct, we can win the Kerry states, VA, NM, and we've got IA!!!!

15. Obama needs to shift his negative message.

"McCain is being dishonest" needs to become "McCain is a dishonest person/liar"

[Quixote1818]

16. Kick so the others will sink

[Statistical]

17. The VA results look good. VA +8% Rep in 2000 & 2004.

If Obama can turn VA it is in the bag.
