2. Great job grantcart. I'm on dial-up so images loading too slow. I looked at all....

this yesterday on surveyusa.com. Glad you compiled the charts. Is VA on there?

3. There's Colorado

Obama leads McCain 48 percent to 42 percent with 5 percent undecided and 5 percent preferring someone else, in a Rasmussen Reports survey conducted May 19. The two were in a statistical dead heat in Rasmussen's last poll conducted mid-April. If Hillary Clinton were the Democratic nominee, McCain would be leading her 47 percent to 44 percent with 7 percent preferring other. The margin of error is 4 points. Obama is viewed favorably by 55 percent of voters, McCain by 51 percent and Clinton by 44 percent. Forty-one percent of voters name the economy as the top issue with Iraq second at 21 percent. Fifty-four percent of voters favor the goal of getting the troops home from Iraq before the end of the next President's term, compared to 39 percent who want to win it. Forty-four percent of voters say that if McCain is president he is very or somewhat likely to win the war in Iraq compared to 20 percent who say that of Obama. Thirty-five percent believe that it is very or somewhat likely that McCain as President would have American troops out of Iraq by the end of his first term, but 60 percent believe Obama would bring them home in that timeframe.http://blogs.cqpolitics.com/polltracker/2008/06/latest-statebystate-general-el-12.html

5. He's ahead in Ohio??

I thought those folks would not vote for Obama? Did not a lot of posters say that? Also, interesting that in VA, both candidates are on a downward slide in the polls??

12. He's actually been ahead in Ohio for a while now.

The only "problem" state right now is Michigan. If we can get Obama's numbers up over there we should be good. It would be nice too to turn Virginia blue and essentially put the election in the bag.

6. Hell yes!

[On the Road]

7. That is Outstanding

It is a broad nationwide trend. Very difficult to localize and attack. McCain doesn't have the money, passion, or shoe leather to overcome that trend. All they can hope for is a scandal or a successful swiftboating campaign.

[myrna minx]

13. Hey, Minnesota has been blue for a long time. We even voted for

Mondale/Ferraro, when no one else did. :P

[phrigndumass]

14. Nice! Can we spank them in Texas too, please?

It's not happening yet, but wouldn't it be great to send Dubya back to a Texas prison as the state turns blue?

[Terran]

15. W00T Missouri!

I knew it! Look at that collision about to happen? Repubs are toast here!

[Zynx]

17. Minnesota and PA both voted for Gore and Kerry.

They are also must-wins.

18. K&R We are going to take back Iowa too.

Election 2008: Iowa Presidential Election

Iowa: Obama Expands Lead in Hawkeye State

Thursday, June 12, 2008

Barack Obama, enjoying a bounce in national polling since clinching the Democratic Presidential Nomination, is also expanding his lead in Iowa (see video).

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the Hawkeye State finds Obama leading John McCain 45% to 38%. This is the fourth Rasmussen poll in the state and Obama had a two to four point edge in each of the earlier polls. A month ago, Obama was up by just two percentage points.

In all four Iowa polls, Obama’s support has stayed in a narrow range from 44% to 46%. The current poll reflects McCain’s lowest level of support in the state
