And, of course, it was the one the local radio touted all day today.

LOL all i heard Yesterday was how the lipstick on a pig was so common in washington that it's not Obamas fault he used the phrase and the liberal TV stations were sappy sweet with Obamalasis and all over the story covering his ghaff !

[Tarpon]

DNC polling outfit. How did they take into account the Bradley effect?

[JohnnyZ]

Q polls are pretty sketchy and have a bad track record. Ras says McCain’s up 7 in Ohio.

[comebacknewt]

And so far it is not looking good.

If you mean not looking good for Obama, then I agree.

[gridlock]

I don’t buy their Ohio number. It is an outlier.

[Notasoccermom]

Keep touting the “Obama is ahead” polls and it will only serve to give their voters a reason to stay home and McCain supporters reason to get out the vote!

[VanDeKoik]

Seriously.

What is with the multiple postings of the same news lately?

This has been posted maybe 4 times, and hashed over just as many, today alone.

Is the search feature on FR broken that badly?

[mrsmith]

They have as much as 40% of their responders saying they don;t know enough about Sarah to have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of her.

That seems bizarre...

No break down of who they interviewed, I;m disappointed.

[stevem]

If Obama’s own pollsters had him doing this well, he and his campaign would not be working today in full panic mode.

[Buckeye Battle Cry]

Quinnipiac is leftist outlier trash. Always has been. Always will be. I’d like to see the internals on this garbage.

[Red Steel]

Rasmussen recent Ohio poll, Sept 9th, has McCain up by +7

Stategic Vision Sept 11 poll has McCain +4.

Don’t sweat the kiddie-lib poll at Quinnipiac U. ;-)

[pburgh01]

Ohio will decide this election. And so far it is not looking good. You believe this poll but not one showing McCain up in Michigan? McCain will win a laugher, bet on it. This poll also showed victories for Kerry in 2004 in Florida and Ohio. Florida was a Bush blowout. So buck up man and back away from the ledge

[wireman]

IMO, Quinnipiac is the least accurate poll around. Very left-leaning.

EMERGENCY EMERGENCY - Due to some unforseen health problems, Biden is going to step down from his run as VP, and the Hildabeast is going to step up to the plate.

The rats are desperate!

[jerry557]

I dont like the way Colorado is looking...Apparently there was no McCain bounce there at all.

If we lose both New Mexico and Colorado, we lose.

[workerbee]

Every time I turn around, OH changes hands. And not by a little, it’s something like 4-5 pts every time. What gives?!?!

[meandog]

Any way you cut it, it will be a real close election. Probably as close as 2000. The spoiler in the case for McCain/Palin is the dunce holding office now at the White House...if somehow the Dims really would be stupid enough to try to impeach Bush and make him into a martyr then it would be a cakewalk.

[Citizen of the Savage Nation]

McCain is not 5 pts down in OH if he's only down 3 in PA. No way.

I wouldn't put much weight in any of these polls, including FL. It would be better to compare them to the last Q polls from these states, otherwise there are better and more accurate polling institutions to watch for.

[not2worry]

Florida looks good....but nothing else does. Obama has way too many koolaid drinkers on his side.

—————————————————————————>

I'm heading to Florida and plan to work day and night to get Florida for sure in the McCalin/Palin camp, and by a landslide.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO DO THEIR SHARE TO SAVE OUR COUNTRY AS WE KNOW IT!

REMEMBER 9/11......WITH OBAMA IN OFFICE WE WON'T HAVE TO REMEMBER 9/11 WE WILL BE LIVING IT EVERY DAY.
