Gallup Tracking Poll Thread [Obama vs McCain]

[Edu]

Obama just needs all the Gore states + NH + Colorado to win. He seems to be up by a good amount in NH and Colorado  and he's doing all right in all the Gore states.

McCain strategy seems to be concentrating on Pennsylvania, so why would Obama let him gain points by stop campaigning in the state?. It seems logical to me that if McCain is specifically targeting the state to win then Obama should spend money and time there to try and neutralize any effect McCain might be having.

Obama has money and he doesn't really need Florida, Ohio, Missouri, Nevada, Indiana, North Carolina, Virginia or Arizona to win the election. So both candidates campaigning there heavily doesn't strike as too odd in my opinion.

Meeker, did you send out an urgent e-mail this morning to get them?

But McCain isn't heavily contesting Washington. That's a difference i think.

I think it would be foolish for the Obama campaign to ignore an important state where the other candidate is concentrating on, even if he's up ahead by 7 or whatever. And making things "urgent" might help motivate the Obama supporters, i don't see anything strange about it.
