MS: Rasmussen: McCain up by 6%

[7,052,770]

Well damn, a 5 page thread on MS goes by while I'm on vacation.  My 2 cents:


Wow, another poll shows McCain up by only 6%.  Cool.  Unlike a many Mississippi Democrats, I'm skeptical that Obama is going to win the state, but this has to be great news for Musgrove.
As long as Obama and Musgrove aren't campaigning together, Obama campaigning here shouldn't hurt Musgrove too much.  Musgrove would be well advised to skip the convention and not make a formal endorsement of Obama though.
If Obama campaigns here and drives up black turnout, I really think he'll push Musgrove over the top.  After all, Wicker is not a strong opponent.

Harry, what the hell good do you think Musgrove is would do the Democrats if he doesn't want to be seen with Obama?  Doesn't that say something about what kind of Democrat he is

He'll vote to keep Democrats in control of the Senate and a have moderate voting record (contrasting with Wicker's far right voting record).
That's a lot of good, especially from a normally Republican state like Mississippi.
