this always kills me. they overwhelmingly disapprove of congress, but they always approve of their own congresscritters.

No internals but it looks good for Mac.

I have faith.....and I believe.....and I pray.....

[2ndDivisionVet]

I’d bet the real numbers are more like McCain 58%, Obama 36% with the rest undecided. Everyone I talk to in Pennsylvania assures me that McCain will win BIG.

Goes along nicely with the Mason-Dixon yesterday showing 0=+5 over McCain.

[Doofer]

Just curious, I wonder if the pollsters ask the questions in the same order that they list when putting their data out?

[Bush Revolution]

I know, it’s like “it’s not my kid doing that”.

[ComputerGuy]

Four of the questions were about Bush.
That tells me the dems are weak.

[Bush Revolution]

Hey Computer guy, I looked at your page after seeing you were with 3/3 and being an HM2. My husband got back from Iraq six months ago and you know who he went with....3/3 and he is an HM2 too and to top it he’s from North Carolina (I looked at your page :-) He wanted to tell me to tell you hi.

The smallest little tilt of Democrats towards John McCain, better than what this pollster thinks, means McCain wins PA!

McCAIN WILL PA! The number of Reagan Dems and PUMA types will shock most.

A slight narrowing from the last strategic vision poll of PA.
Last week it was 50-43.

[toddausauras]

I got up to get a drink of water and checked FR and I’m glad I did, this is good news. The cynical side of me worries that now the pollsters are trying to motivate their side. But in reality they are likely protecting their cred.

Sigh, my name is toddausauras and I have a problem. I’m a poll junkie! It’s FR’s fault. How can one site have so many fresh updates in the course of a day?

“I’d bet the real numbers are more like McCain 58%, Obama 36% with the rest undecided. Everyone I talk to in Pennsylvania assures me that McCain will win BIG.”

How many liberals in PA have you spoken to that feel the same way?

[2ndDivisionVet]

I’m talking about PUMAs and Reagan Democrats, not Republicans...

[GnL]

I remember seeing something from the PUMAs that encouraged other PUMAs to lie to pollsters—in other words, many PUMA voters are not being accurately reflected in polls. They want the media and pundits to believe that they are voting for Obamalamadingdong, and then they pull the ole switcheroo.

[Grampa Dave]

For President Barack Obama and his world wide Obamacon cult, the Upcoming Election is "Just a Mere Formality!".

The polls show that Lord Obama has won.

So just stop this stupid nonsense and outdated technicality of an Election. Osama/bama is now our FUERHER UBER BAMA, er president of America and the entire world.

Strategic Vision Poll Of Pennsylvania:

Obama: 49%
McCain: 44%
