We could be teetering on the edge of a total collapse in Obama’s polling.

[Norman Bates]

McCain’s already outpacing Bush’s final 2000 and 2004 numbers with 13% still undecided. Add in the Bradley Effect and McCain may end up with 45% here and a stunning upset.

Wow, if Obama loses MA, can CA be far behind?

[Malesherbes]

The simple truth is that Obama is the weakest, least qualified candidate the Dims could have chosen. Geraldine Ferraro is right - if B.O. weren’t black he would never have made it. It remains to be seen whether a majority of the electorate will risk putting the country into the hands of this con man.

Yeeeaaahhhhh....we are all just a bunch of racists up here for not wanting to vote for The Obamessiah.

Jeez...when a candidate with zero accomplishment, zero experience and zero ability to form a coherent sentence without at teleprompter loses his 23 point lead in a state like this...heck...it HAS to be racism.

RIght?

Right?

We'll be needing Howard before this is done ..

I’ve never been proud of my state my whole adult life until now... (just kidding!)

Pay no attention to the woman in the pantsuit behind the curtain!

Barack Obama!!! Flip-flops you can believe in!!!!

Suffolk University pollster David Paleologos said questions of experience and race appear to be at play... -Ralph Z. Hallow

Obama's is a racialist campaign. So there is an element of shouldn't you vote for him because of race. When the pollster cited questions of race, I think it means Massachusetts folks are turned off by race in the campaign. (They voted in a racialist governor with no experience and it isn't working out well.)

Poll: Obama's lead plunges in Mass.

Awaiting this: Obama's lead plunges en masse.

[SamAdams76]

Well this is not your typical election. There are a significant amount of people who, when asked for whom they will vote, will say that they are voting for Obama lest they be thought of as a racist.

This is why Obama polls well but often underperforms when the real votes are counted. And this was the Democratic primaries. During the general election, the differential will be even greater.

[Republican Wildcat]

Difficult to believe even if it is what we want to hear. It’s not enough for McCain to get this state, however, If Obama is down in the 40s even in Massachusetts with an overall downward trend, that is bad news for him as far as a probable national trend.

Obama is dropping - if McCain also starts rising we will be in business.

[Pharmboy]

Even the residents of Taxachusetts can see through the audacity of being audacious.

[Kleebo151]

And you ain’t seen nothing yet.

[ken21]

if al obama can’t muster a humongous lead in demostan,

then he’s likely to be defeated.

[Clintonfatigued]

This is pretty amazing news. I wonder what’s responsible for it and if it means anything?

[seoul62]

Do not let our guard down!!!!!! This might be psychological warfare from their comrades in arms: the drive-by media into making the McCain side, over-confident? Just a theory, but then I would not put anything past these scoundrels. Oh dear, if he is slowly tanking or bleeding in the Peoples Republic Of Massachusetts that certainly spells trouble on the horizon for him. I need proof from the ground, proof from the ground!!!!!!/Just Asking - seoul62........

[Graybeard58]

Drunk fat Ted can campaign for Obama in Massachusetts, if he can remember his name.
