What if a poll showed Obama's lead in Illinois at 2 points today?
How would the media react? What would Drudge say? Would the reaction be different from the media's coverage of the new Arizona poll showing McCain with a 2% lead?

Just a thought.

1. It would be even worse cause Illinois is more blue than Arizona is red usually.

3. If Obama lost 10 points in Illinois, but was still ahead by what, 15 points?
It would still be a bigger story in the media than Arizona being a swing state.

6. Arizona is turning blue and would be as solid as NM and CO this year except for McCain
