Compared to 2004, Obama would pick up Colorado, Iowa, Missouri, New Mexico, Ohio, and Virginia while McCain would pick up no states that George W. Bush didn’t carry. Further, McCain is barely leading in North Carolina, Georgia, and Nevada, all of which Bush won.
Then again, on this day in 2004, John Kerry was leading President Bush 285 to 249 and had slight leads in both Florida and Ohio. As you may recall, it didn’t turn out that way.
However, Obama seems to be running stronger than Kerry was this time in the cycle, with leads in states like Colorado and Virginia.
Guess it’s a good thing the election is not tomorrow, and it’s not conducted by way of a poll.
polls are meaningless about the final outcome this far out.
There hasn’t even been a debate yet and no conventions.
In fact, I think the last five elections other then one, whoever was leading this early lost.
Who is showing Florida even close, besides Quinipeac, or what ever they call themselves.
This is the same nonsense from all the pollsters that we had to put up with in 2000 & 2004. It is all targeted to demoralize McCain supporters. These same dimbulbs had Rudy & Hilldog duking it out for supremacy this time last year. They are nothing but self-promoting tools (in more than one sense of the word) They will do everything in their power to suppress Republican turnout in November. Period.
I have some prime downtown real estate in NYC want to buy it for a steal?
Yeah, the polls have been so accurate this year. Forget the polls, they are a joke. Didn’t they have Oblack winning NH by 20 and he lost or vice versa?

McCain is going to be the next President.
Needless to say, I hope so.
Ah, fret not.
The TRUTH about Obama is slowly coming out.
I’m not concerned.
McShame is going to lose in a landslide.
this same homemade site gave kerri the electoral lead all the wayt to the end in ‘04....
Money can’t solve serious problems with a candidate.
Also as far as huge leads go, Dukakis had one too.
Any collection of polling data that shows McCain barely ahead in South Carolina, Montana, and North Dakota (as this one does) is suspect, in my book. Nonetheless, it is far too early to draw any conclusions, especially in an election cycle with no incumbent, with an electorate whose allegiances are weak.
I think, aside from the extreme lefties, most Americans will see through the hype. Most Americans are NOT that far left.
A Democrat like Clinton could get elected, but not one who goes to a “church” that condemns our country.
You are correct,Sir.
