1. Gobama!!!

[Tellurian]

3. New headline: McCain and Obama both sinking like a rock!

I'm all 'vaklempt'!

4. Hillary can not get all the women vote

She will be in trouble when it gets closer to the election. Obama is beginning to concentrate on women voters. Her numbers will steadily decline.

[Tellurian]

5. yeah, from your mouth to Maya Angelou's ears..

[Ethelk2044]

8. I love Maya. She has one vote.

[Tellurian]

12. you're not serious are you? Ms. Angelou is one of 30 most powerful women in the country..

She, herself, has one vote, but how many people that trust her judgment will vote along with her?

1,000, 10,000, 100,000, 250,000?

6. How can you consider this a bad poll for Obama?

He trails Hillary by 6%.

This was a terrible poll for Hillary, and with months to go she has no where to go but further down.

Hey I love that song you're whistling Tellurian, but watch out there's a graveyard ahead.

[Ethelk2044]

9. It is not a bad Poll He is doing Well. However

Hillary supporters will try to smear him every change they get. Just ignore them.

2. McCain says...

"Damn, I'm just not getting any traction"

[Colobo]

7. Obama is 6% points away! We are making gains!

[Ethelk2044]

11. I agree.

I do not want him to move ahead of her before Sept though.

[snowbear]

14. Me either Ethelk.. I like Obama exactly where he's at right now..

We're going for the "Late Autumn Obama Surge"

[BringBigDogBack]

10. Very interesting

and obviously great news for the Obama camp.

This is going to be a horse race folks...

[zulchzulu]

13. I like it, but it's WAY too early...

As you can guess, Florida is one odd place where votes don't nesessarily count.

I did talk to someone on the Obama campaign who says the ground game has been forming pretty quickly in Miami, Tampa, Orlando and the panhandle...

[illinoisprogressive]

15. whoa! nice!

like you guys said, no moving ahead if he can help it. Bad place to be, in front, this early. i like where he is positioned now.
When he starts getting up to hillary, i get nervous cause I think it is just too early
