Obama Collapse in Illinois: Tied in District He Won by 23 Points in 08
Breitbart ^

Posted on 10/04/2012 12:08:08 PM PDT by Perdogg

Back in August, a poll showed Obama with just a 12 point lead over Romney in Cook County, Illinois. While he posted a huge lead in the city of Chicago, the poll found him actually losing to Romney in suburban Cook County. It was a shock that I set aside as an outlier. A new poll of Illinois' 10th Congressional District, which includes parts of Cook County, however, suggests the August poll might not be such an aberration. The poll, from WeAskAmerica, finds Obama with just a 2 point lead over Romney, 47-45 in the suburban district. Obama won the district in 2008 by 23 points.

10th District is very Jewish. Perhaps more are finally waking up.

How appropriate...

Holy cow. 65 percent women? Its madness! Unless all the minority men are ineligible to vote.

Wait till Obastard has to go back and campaign in his own back yard. Then, you know it is all over and the fat lady has sung.

I’ve been saying this for months Obama is DOA in the rust belt.

He has no chance to win Oh,Wi,IA or In.

He’ll hold Il but be way down. MN as well likely wont change..

This is how Illinois voted in 2010. Most of the state is red. (Map halfway down the page) Cook County is the reason Illinois goes blue.

Hell why not.

A quick drive for Ryan from Janesville to Rockford and then fly out of there to another stop in IA.

It would be a stop the presses moment for a news cycle ;)

Very similar to what I was thinking:

Dead people don't answer phone polls, even in Cook County.

The 10th Congressional District contains a significant number of affluent Jewish voters, including some who are willing to split their tickets and vote for occasional Republican candidates. This district has elected several GOP moderate/liberal representatives to the US Congress from John Porter, Mark Kirk (now in the US Senate) to the current incumbent Bob Dold.

Many of these voters will break with Democrats who embrace Arabic rhetoric who appear to be hostile to Israel.

IL will go to obama, but it wouldn’t hurt if Ryan made an appearance in Will or Dupage to help out R Congressman up for reelection

Not even that will save Obama. Obama is simply TOAST.

"10th District is very Jewish. Perhaps more are finally waking up."

Kirk's old District, currently held by Dold. Very much a RINO district, though Dems are able to contest it. Years ago, Don Rumsfeld was elected from the same area.
