1. If I had to guess, I'd say McCain leads Obama somewhere in the MOE

but not 6 percent.

[LiberalHeart]

2. Six percent struck me as a lot, too. Makes no sense.

4. Let's see if it's "Likely Voters". nt

[Thrill]

3. That state doesn't get enough of their

jobs leaving and none being created. Vote for another Republican? unreal

[Arugula Latte]

6. Very, very frustrating.

What is wrong with some of this idjits? Oh, I know, some of them are my dumbass relatives. :eyes:

12. The Archie Bunker factor is very high in Ohio.

16. I'm tired of Ohio as a swing state. I worked there during the summer of 2004

on a congressional race. It was a shitty environment to work in.

5. i dont know how they do these polls,

but it says it was conducted at the university of cincinnati. cincinnati is by far, the most conservative area in the whole midwest.

[LiberalHeart]

7. But the Blade is part of the group doing the poll and it's a Dem-leaning paper.

[Hamlette]

8. Nate still has us at 1.1% for a 60% chance of taking OH

not sure its that good a chance, but I hope so.

Most polls show McCain ahead but Nate uses more than polls.

9. It was conducted Sept. 12th - 16th and released four days later?

[writes3000]

10. Interesting. nt

[RDANGELO]

11. Look at the dates.

Sept 12-16, Obama didn't start really surging until the 16th.

[Sensitivity]

14. It's amazing what difference a week makes.

[DCBob]

15. Correct. This poll is pre-Obama bounce.

Wait for the next poll. This one is stale and meaningless.

[grantcart]

13. good it will keep every body working like hell thats what we need

[elkston]

17. Honestly, I'm tired of us kissing ass to the inflexible bigots in that state

I wish we could win VA, NC, and IN and give a big middle finger to Ohio!!!!

[mscuedawg]

18. Me too...and I have to live here... n/t

[iceman66]

19. Agreed!

This is one of the states that has suffered the most as a result of Republican economic policy and yet around half of the population wants to vote for McCain? Boggles the mind . . .

[gmoney]

20. They didn't ask me!

Maybe because the power's been out at my house for nearly a week and I haven't been home to answer the phone?
