SUSA Indiana Poll:

1. They were the only outlier as well - so this is great news.

[berni_mccoy]

2. No kidding. After seeing the ridiculous spin posted by Mrs. Clinton's supporters here for the 10th

time today, I got sick of it and had to use one of my 3 posts to shut them up.

3. Obama is supposed to win Indiana.

Let's not change expectations. He is expected to win the state.

[scheming daemons]

4. Uh... no.... he WASN"T supposed to... Hillary led it by 20 ppints a month ago, and it is a mostly

white and rural state.

It's demographics are a lot like PA... but without a Philly counterbalance.



No... Indiana was SUPPOSED to be in Clinton's wheel house. it won't be.

[NJSecularist]

7. Are you joking?

Obama is tied in some of the latest polls. If he loses, then it's a big loss for him. Obama's campaign expects him to win the state.

23. The demographics are pretty good for her

Although the fact that it is an open primary and close to Illinois makes up for it. But I certainly don't think it is an 'expected' win for Obama.

State was always a toss up, but she needs it much more than he does.

[scheming daemons]

26. I'm saying the demographics favor Hillary.... the only thing in Obama's favor there is that it

neighbors Illinois.

[berni_mccoy]

6. What was that sound?

Oh, it was your head hitting the ground because the your SPIN WAS TOO MUCH FOR IT.

[TheWraith]

17. Boy, talk about your desperate and ludicrous spin.

You really need to do something about that reality distortion field you live in. You're just making things up to suit your purpose.

[jbm]

19. you are correct..Obama was originally predicted to win Indiana

If Hillary is leading by this much, the tide has turned.

[book_worm]

5. Absolutely great news!

[futureliveshere]

8. Obama is running even on most other polls. SUSA was an outlier. Glad to see it narrow.

:woohoo:

[Zachstar]

9. This is good news!

[Jensen]

10. That is Great news! Maybe Indiana workers remember the factory that closed down in her commercial!

11. First Its twos weeks and second its gone from +9 to +16 and back to +9

Don't get too excited about this one.

Also I really doubt Clinton was ever ahead by 16 and probably is not even up 9 right now.

[berni_mccoy]

12. 25-13 = 12 < two weeks.

And anytime a candidate cuts a 16 point lead down to 9 in that timespan, IT'S THE BIG MO BABY! CLINTON DOESN'T HAVE IT. OBAMA DOES! GOBAMA!

[Innocent Smith]

15. You really think Clinton is up 9?

I don't. This poll has gone from +9 to +16 to +9. So over three weeks nothing has changed.

I don't think this poll is accurate and Indiana is mostly close to tied right now.

And it is a Friday through Sunday poll. They polled Friday-Sunday two weeks apart.

[quantass]

13. Lets not forget...Hill MUST WIN ALL STATES by 20+... So Obama taking NC, it is OVER

him just taking NC is over

[LVjinx]

18. Even if she did, she'd be far shy of the 2025, and so is Obama.

[jgraz]

14. Correction: Clinton is cutting Clinton's lead in half

Happens everywhere she shows her face.

[Bensthename]

16. Obama is tied or actually leading

Research 2000 04/23 - 04/24 400 LV 47 48 Obama +1.0
Indy Star/Selzer 04/20 - 04/23 535 LV 38 41 Obama +3.0
Downs Center 04/14 - 04/16 578 LV 45 50 Obama +5.0


These are today from Indiana at real clear politics.

[hannybal]

21. Those are older polls

The dynamics of the race change on a daily basis.

[Major Hogwash]

20. Obama is ahead by a few points in some of the other polls.

I don't know why SUSA is so different.

[hannybal]

22. Because the polls were not conducted in the same period of time

The Survey USA is more recent.

[hannybal]

24. You guys assume that because Obama cut her lead, he will keep cutting it

This is unfortunately not the way things work. In Pennsylvania, Obama cut Hillary's lead until he not only plateaued at -3 or -4 points, but lost ground at the end. No one can tell how this numbers will change, and in whose favor.

[Major Hogwash]

25. Well, hell, that's my plan anyway.

Why, is it a bad thing to hope she will fall down and go boom?

LoL
