Zogby: Obama leads in swingy colorado, missouri, new mexico, virginia, n. car

[240 is Back]

Obama is leading in each of these SWING states:
colorado, missouri, new mexico, virginia, n. carolina


Bush won all 5 of these states in 2004.

If Obama can keep a lead in ANY of these states, then Mccain can win both OH and FL, and still lose.

It's really too early for polls nationwide, but state polls are noteworthy. McCain is in trouble...he's starting to look like Dole in '96.

I agree there... I mean, that's just five states that I noticed today, where Obama has a lead in state polls.  I looked up the 2004 results, and sure enough, those were Bush states.

Obama just dumped something like 14 mil into new states to try to win a few Bush states.   Remember that Bush won 4-5 or those states by 1% back then, mid-war when the economy was awesome.
