Obama Opens up HUGE lead in Wisconsin

[rg302200]

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in Wisconsin shows Barack Obama earning 50% of the vote while John McCain attracts support from 39%. This is a big improvement for Obama who held a statistically insignificant two point lead in the state a month ago. Last month’s poll was taken just before Hillary Clinton dropped out of the race. When “leaners” are included in the current totals, it’s Obama 52% and McCain 42%.

1. What amazes me is the number of McCain ads I see all the time

and how his campaign evidently views Wisconsin as a battleground state for him. If this is a battleground state, I wonder what they consider to be blowout states.

I see that there is now an answer to the RNC sponsored ad promoting McCain as the candidate who has the answers to the energy problems, only this ad is by Obama himself and he approved the message.

2. I think this so called battleground state

will be anything but...Obama will win it by a large margin and the only thing McCain will have to show for it is advertising receipts!

4. Ah, those upper-Midwest states are full of "whiners"

They're sure to come around to McCain now that Phil Gramm has set them straight about the economy. It's not that we're in a recession -- it's just that they're dumb and childish.
