Could McCain lose his home state?

[question everything]

Democrats are circulating a poll showing Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) losing ground in his own state, an ominous sign for his beleaguered campaign as state after state turns blues.

Project New West, which aims to build the Democratic Party in the Intermountain West, says McCain leads Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) in the Grand Canyon State, 48 percent to 44 percent.

The pollsters call that a “dramatic shift” from a survey they took in mid-September, which had McCain ahead by 14 points, 54 percent to 40 percent.

1. I definitely think so.

It's not that likely, but I wouldn't be stunned if Obama sneaks Arizona in on Election Day. The fact that it's even questionable gives me hope Obama will win Arizona.

2. The Question is "SHOULD McCain loose his home state ?"

Trick question !


McCain was born in Panama he has no home state.

3. Chuck Todd

moved Arizona into the "Leans McCain" category this morning, which stunned the shit out of the Morning Joe club.
He said, if it wasn't for the fact that McLame is Arizona's Senator, he would expect Arizona to also change to blue along with the rest of the Southwest.

4. With a Democratic governor - why not?

Which leads me to wonder about Montana, another state with a Democratic governor, and what a great speech he gave during the convention.

5. Home state? Panama is a state?

Damn. The things you learn on this board...

6. I doubt it. Panama seems pretty conservative.
