Minnesota seems like it once again is going to be one of those "teaser" states that might let us down on election day.

Lets not discount those who bitterly cling to their Guns, quite a few of them in upper MN who are going to come out for the Palin/McCain ticket.
At this point I wouldnt rule out any midwestern states for McCain/Palin.

How good is Rasmussen on state polling?

It’s interesting that so many other polls showed it closer in MN. Then again, I’m sure it will go RAT anyway, per usual.

I think that MN is a waste of time for McCain-Palin. PA, MI, even WI would be better bets of flipping a blue state.

While I doubt we take Minnesota, the only state that voted fro Mondale, I must ask;

Is this an independent Rasmussen poll of the state, or the 500 LV Fox News sponsored polls, in which Fox gives Rasmussen their own voter ID breakdown? It has made a bit of a difference in Rasmussen’s state polling.

For example, the Fox/Ras poll has Elizabeth Dole losing a Senate seat in NC. This will not happen.

Another Monday.

Another round of polls for people to waste time trying to derive meaning from, and to regulate their moods with.

Still plenty of room for volunteers at your local campaign shop. Just a suggestion.

1) "the economy is fundamentally sound."

2) "I will fire chairman Cox"

3) wait too long to make formal address on the economic situation.

4) failure to have Governor Palin make formal address to establish gravitas

5) failure to have organized refutation of Obama and mainstream media

Other polls have shown the race about a 2 point Obama lead. Have to give it time to see what more recent polls say.
