I suspect that Democrats will end up winning both Illinois races by comfortable margins (6-12 points)

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

I didn't believe anyway that Obama was going to be defeated in his own backyard anyways. Andy McKenna was the stronger candidate in both of these races and they chose not to nominate him.

I don't believe he's really ahead by this much....but ya never know.

Maybe a 60% change of Alexi winning in my opinion.

So Kos has him up 7 and Rasmussen has him down 6. I'll split the middle and say it's a tossup.

That's a major logical fallacy there.

It is, but the conclusion is probably about right. I don't think Alexi's lead is outside of the margin of error really.

You're right. I shouldn't even be taking Kos polls seriously.

A six point lead isn't that impressive 8 months out with 19% undecided. Giannoulias has only 42%, and remember that the momentum may be behind the GOP on election day. If it is, Giannoulias better be near or over 50%. As it is now, a 6 point lead doesn't mean much at this time.

[Eraserhead]

If it's close on election day, Im sure the Dems will dig up enough people for Giannoulias to pick up the W. Amirite?
