Tightening? Uh, No
from TalkLeft by Big Tent Democrat

Quick message to Joe Scarborough of MSNBC - who is screaming about "tightening" in the state polls - when Obama increases his lead in the Mason Dixon polls - that does not signal tightening.

For example, Scarborough keeps talking about "tightening" in Nevada, based on a 10/28-9 Mason-Dixon poll showing Obama up 4, 47-43. For Joe's information, last month's M-D 10/8-9 Nevada poll had Obama leading in Nevada by just 2, 47-45. Similarly in Virginia, Joe is screaming about tightening based on a 10/29-30 M-D poll showing Obama by 3, 47-44. The problem for Joe is M-D's 10/20-21 VA poll, for NBC no less, had Obama up 2, 47-45. And so on.

Bottom line, there is no tightening and you should not pay attention to the Scarboroughs of the world. He really knows nothing about polling.

1. Obama is even leading Mason-Dixon polls everywhere.

McCain can't even win with conservative pollsters in these states.
