Pennsylvanians worried about their wallets are giving President Bush cause to worry about their votes. A statewide Keystone Poll released today showed Pennsylvanians increasingly nervous about the economy are boosting the hopes of Democratic presidential front-runner John Kerry.

If the election were held tomorrow, 47 percent said they'd vote for Kerry, a U.S. senator from Massachusetts, and 46 percent for Bush. The remaining 8 percent said they were undecided. The numbers total 101 percent because of rounding.

Pennsylvanians worried about their wallets are giving President Bush cause to worry about their votes.

And how will voting for Kerry improve things for them?

[My2Cents]

What with the spotlight being on the Dems for about six weeks now, the incessant carping by the press, the "AWOL" issue, it's amazing Bush is this close to Kerry.

This is a disaster for Kerry !

He must win PA and FL or he loses !

"There isn't any question (the economy) remains the most important question in the presidential election, and it's going to have a profound effect on the election," Madonna said.

Yep. It's people's personal economies George. They don't care about International economies or even the National Economy that doesn't seem to put a dime in their pockets. '

Get with the program and stop the insanity.

PORK ....

he has to win PA + NH + WV or

"He must win PA and FL or he loses !"

Absolutely my freind... that is why CNN is not doing state by state polls thus far even though at this point in the 1996 race there were battleground state polls being reported by them every single day on inside politics and other CNN shows showing Clinton trouncing Dole. If he is this close in PA(a solid blue northern state), imagine what florida(southern state where right wing radio is king and where i became a conservative) must look like.

[KQQL]

No Heinz bounce for Kerry in PA

[Betaille]

he has to win PA + NH + WV or PA+MO PA+OH

Yeah on second thought you are right. However, PA, MO, and OH are probably some of the most sympathetic states for a Defense of Marriage Amendment.

[KC_Conspirator]

I actually think this is good news for Bush. Gore won this state easily in 2000 and I thought that Bush had a chance here in 2004, even with Rendell there.

[KQQL]

PA is not a SOLID blue state...

It has a Republican state house/senate 2 republican Senators .
PA is a 2 state within one state....---

PA is toss up state...to a very slightly RAT lean.


.Kerry has to win in PA , not W...

If W loses OH then, W has to win PA or MN +NM+(IA or OR)

"KERRY WILL NOT WIN FL...."

Thank g-d you are right. When I moved to northern florida 4 years ago it was a very split and almost apathetic place politically. But when i moved out just a few months ago it was the most gung-ho, patriotic, and conservative place I had ever seen. What the liberal media doesn't realize is that there are alot of underlying cultural and religious factors in Florida and just because Gore almost tied there doesnt mean it is less conservative than Nevada or New Hampshire.

FL : In 2000 Jebby had been Gov for approx 2 years, by 04 it will be 6 years.

also, LOSERMAN was big factor

[Betaille]

"KERRY WILL NOT WIN FL...."

I'm just curious to hear why you are so sure FL will be different in 04 than in 00. I happen to agree with you because there has been a big religious and patriotic revival in northern and western florida that the elitist media can't comprehend. If you have other reasons to be so confident though, I'd like to hear them, I'm in need of some positive news. By the way I am one of those Floridians who voted for Gore in '00 and since then have rediscovered both religion and gung-ho patriotism.

[LdSentinal]

If Bush is ruuning even with Kerry in Pennsylvania, Bush is leading Kerry in Ohio.

Camejo and Nader need to be on the ballot.
