Polling right after the primary had BO up in the teens over McCain, I said then that was not realistic. When the polling hit in the 6-7 range, I said that was where it should be. When it dipped to even with some polls right after the convention, I said that was not accurate, either.
I am saying now, BO is not going to win Pa by double digits, but it isn't the "toss up" the media has desperately trying to paint it as for half a year now.
I will repeat - We have voted D in the presidential for two decades now, we have a strong D governor, and Bob Casey beat Rick Santorum, the third highest ranked R in the senate who spent the most money ever in a senatorial race, and he kicked his rear end. And, we have registred something insane, like 300,000 new dems since the start of the primary. BO has the same kickbutt ground game going here he has in most of the other key states, and McCain basically has nothing other than the party network, which is solid, but not as big as BO's operation.
And, I will speak for myself here, but the IMAGE of Palin gets the hard core right wingers who are voting McCain regardless all misty, but for anyone who isn't a complete kool aid drinker, she is joke. Pa is Pa, and while we have the element, the crazed fundies are not THAT big here.
