11. much fewer blacks than hispanics in CO, so probably very few were polled.

7. 65+ is a big problem for us.
Just happens to coincide with growing to adulthood before the '60s and acceptance of the legitimacy of the civil rights movement.

Not true with everyone, but I guarantee you that is the most racist age group, as you might expect.

14. I shouldn't say this, but
I've seen some moronic, semi-racist older people interviewed (the most recent were some Fla. seniors) who had the stupidest reasons for not voting for Obama.

I couldn't help but think: "Well, maybe you'll be gone from the voting rolls the next time a presidential election rolls around."

:yoiks:

8. I'm skeptical.
As someone who's quick to debunk questionable polls showing McSame leading, I can't all of a sudden jump up and down when equally questionable polls come out in our favor. This is a TINY sample and it's a LIKELY VOTERS poll.

I do think that Obama is leading CO, but this poll doesn't seem right. Sorry to be a downer, I just want to be consistent.

10. IA polls never seem to be right
First of all, they never have the right numbers to match their demos. For example, I think the African American vote should be switched with the Hispanic vote. Once, they listed McCain winning 55 percent of the African American vote because they were just that careless.

12. No way
I don't want to burst anybody's bubble, but while this may be an indication that Obama is ahead in Colorado, there's no way we're ahead by that much. McCain is unlikely to be anywhere below 45% and Obama is probably not at 50%. Good news, but I'll take that margin with a grain of salt.

13. Holy crap! CO and NM have both moved heavy to Obama.
That means IA+CO+NM+Kerry states = Obama wins.

15. Yes......
My folks in live Trinidad Colorado. Two votes for Obama. Got a sister and brother in law in other parts of the state, two more. The only place Palin and McCain will win is Colorado Springs, and that is only because it's a James Dobson paradise.
