Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community - View Single Post - Is Supporting Obama's Candidacy More Important to You Than Beating McCain in November

Host...you know better than to look at only one poll

Here is an aggregate of polls:
Obama (46.7) v McCain (43.7)
Clinton (45.4) v McCain (43.8)

Two recent polls (Zogby, IBD) have Obama up 8-12 over McCain....no polls show Clinton with those numbers.

More importantly, look at state polls....particularly those red states that were close in 04

Obama can conceivably win Iowa, Indiana, Colorado, New Hampshire, New Mexico, even Virginia...or at least has a greater chance than Clinton.

McCain is even closer to Clinton in several blue states (MN, OR)
