PPP? 

[KeyKeeper]

Isn't PPP a little bias toward the left? If so I'm guessing MI is right now is tied or at best Sen. McCain leading by a point.

[Lief 🗽]

Not bad, considering McCain's leading by 2-4 nationally right now.

Well this poll was taken over the weekend, while Sen. Obama was up by 1% or tied, until Sunday.

That's why I can´t wait for their Colorado poll coming later this week ...

I think everything from Obama+2 to McCain+5 is possible there.

Er... no. McCain's been ahead the entire weekend.

Trend:

Obama +1%
McCain +3%
U +3%

It's a good sign for McCain, but I won't be placing Michigan in anything other than the Tossup category, not even on election day.

I'm glad Cockrel replaced Kilpatrick as Mayor. He's a product of the machine and he knows how to pull its strings to win an election. Obama is actually in Michigan today. Flint and Farmington Hills. He's been here a lot lately. I wonder what his internals are showing him?

[J. J.]

Either PA or MI will be in 2008 what FL was in 2000.

[Eraserhead]

Either PA or MI will be in 2008 what FL was in 2000.

That's highly unlikely.

I would say likely.  It might be MI.

I'm looking at three states:  OH, MI, and PA.

Biden clearly helped in PA, but how does Palin play?  I don't know.  (When I do have a better guess, I'll move it.)

MI, a lot of problems for Obama regarding MI over the year; tight poll numbers.  Unknown.

OH, the last one I saw was +2 Obama during his bounce.  Probably McCain.

That whole resigning thing still hasn't clicked in my head yet.

I'd say that Virginia or Missouri (or WILDCARD: Indiana) will be the the FL of 2008. If PA or MI are, Obama's already lost, so what's the point?

Inks...don't let us down in Michigan, man.

They both could be, as could VA, but I would not say that Obama had already lost if it were.

Missouri or Indiana being the Florida of 2008.

Wow.

Well, it would take a similar national swing to Obama that a McCain win in PA would take (to McCain).
