Kerry Surges to Dead Heat in Arkansas

John Kerry and George Bush are tied at 48 percent of Arkansas LV's, according to a new Arkansas News Bureau/Stephens Media Group Poll conducted 10/18-20. Kerry was down by 9 percent in the ANB poll taken two weeks ago

Virginia and Arkansas will be just two of our "Red State" surprises.

4. That might just swing it
I've been screaming for months that there are southern states that could surprisingly be in play, but no one seems to listen to me. Arkansas was one of them (along with Louisiana for a while, but that appears to have evaporated).

5. Reportedly, he's going to Florida.
I wish that they'd equip a bus for his medical/rehab needs and put him on the road.

10. Awesome!
Of course credit Kerry in the debates, but I wonder if maybe General Clark deserves a little credit too? He has been working very hard to get Kerry elected and Arkansas is his home state.

15. Ignored his offer in 2000
You know, Clinton wanted and offered to campaign in AK for Gore in 2000 but he foolishly turned him down. Clinton said later that he knew he could have turned it for Gore and I believe him. And I've been saying ever since then - get Clinton down to Arkansas.

I was playing with that EC map that you can toggle and I've come up with a fairly likely scenario where JK wins even WITHOUT Ohio AND Florida as long as he gets all of ME, NH and AK!

I'll say it again - get Big Dawg to go home for a few days!

16. I emailed DNC on this, but of course they are getting blasted with
helpful suggestions of all manner.

I doubt that Camp Kerry can be oblivious to news like this.

18. Another Arkansan for Kerry
My grandma from Arkansas just voted for Kerry. Her church has been preaching sermons about how evil homosexuality and abortion is. However, she got into the ballot box and couldn't vote for Bush and voted for Kerry.
