I don't know why McThatOne pulled out of Michigan. Heck he's only 6 points behind but Pennsylvania he's pretty much FUCKED!

[mucifer]

1. It's only 2 points below IL

[grannie4peace]

2. i like that---DEEP, DARK BLUE :):):) music to my ears!!!!!!

3. I'm about to go protest McCain and Palin this a.m. with my "EPIC FAIL" poster!

Bethlehem, PA!

[NYC Liberal]

4. I'm looking at *Virginia*...with it's very lovely shaded-in BLUE!

Hell look at ALL the blue on that map!

[PA Democrat]

5. Has there been a poll recently that McCain has NOT been losing by double digit numbers

here in PA?

McCain is still spending a lot of money here as well on ads, all of which are extremely negative. I also saw a nice ad by the SEIU on McCain's health care plan shown a few times this morning.

6. You know what's funny...

I live in Philadelphia media market here in Wilmington DE (our news all comes out of Philly) and I NEVER see McCain ads. Mind you I'm usually flipping thru the news channels; perhaps McCain is doing the ads on regular programming which I rarely watch.

He doesn't have a presence here in Philly

[PA Democrat]

7. I live in the Pittsburgh media market and McCain has spent heavily here.

I hate to say it, but the population here is older, much more socially conservative, and I would guess that on average there is still more racial prejudice here than across the rest of the country. I live a little more than 20 miles outside of Pittsburgh, but it is like red state hell here. Westmoreland County has a 2 to 1 advantage of Democratic to Republican voter registration, but it went for Bush in 2000 and in 2004.

8. Pittsburgh media market also reaches into Ohio

Whereas you leave Philadelphia and it only gets darker blue

17. McLame is running his ads on cable.

I don't watch much network and haven't seen many TV ads from him except on the occassion I may pop into the Sunday morning news shows. Most of his ads are on the radio - e.g., KYW and WOGL (both of which I listen to). Thing is, Obama is running (and rotating) 3 different TV and radio ads to each of McLame's!

:rofl:

18. But that's all I watch is stuff on cable

I rarely watch the networks

[fencesitter]

9. I'd like to see a closer breakdown..

Outside the cities region, Pennsyltucky is still red I'm sure. We're trying to get rid of our 6 term congressman who has voted w/Bush almost 100% of the time. This district just will not elect a Democrat, it's in the genes or it's pathalogical. (16th District)

10. I thought Michigan always was blue, very blue collar workers

who were dems. What is up with Michigan?? It should be solid blue.

[democrattotheend]

11. I'm really surprised by the PA polls

I think Obama will win Pennsylvania but not by 10 points...I encountered too many racists there in the primaries, people who claim they usually vote Democrat but wouldn't vote for Obama.

[LynneSin]

15. I think it could get near 10points but only because of the massive voter registration

Remember in 2006, Ed Rendell and Bob Casey easily won Pennsylvania by 19%.

I don't think Obama will get that number but I think he will do double digits. As for the racist voters, well they would't have vote for Obama if he was pasty white. That's just how they are.

12. Compare with the map from a month ago

And high-tide for McCain, Aug. 21:

The trend is pretty clear.

13. PA voted for the Democrat in the last 4 Presidential elections.

Only the RW-biased M$M have insisted otherwise to make it look like it was a "toss-up".

McPalin hanging a hat here is a ridiculous, Street-Thug Steve EPIC FAIL. But I suppose because they have now lost Iowa and NM (and are losing OH, CO, FL, NC, VA, and NH), they are trying to get something to make up for that.

[PCIntern]

14. Toldja!!

People almost have to go back to the Dem side...this ticket is horrible even by republican standards. We're not big on corrupt, white-trash, trash-talking, slutty, hockey-moms here, sorry to disappoint the McFail crowd.

[asdjrocky]

16. It is a lovely shade of blue.
