This looks more reasonable than the other polls he's been producing of Tennessee this year, imho.

[Eraserhead]

I guess McCain won't be breaking 60%.

[Lief 🗽]

The idea that he was going to break 60% was kind of ridiculous. Tennessee is not that Republican/racist of a state.

Sounds about right. As my brother keeps saying "Obama's more likely to medal in female gymnastics than he is to win Tennessee." The traditionally Democratic (and lily white) TVA counties should be interesting though.

[Adam Griffin]

The Chattanooga area will be interesting. Areas like Polk, Marion, & Van Buren counties are all Democratic-leaning, very white and very rural. It'll be fun to see how those come out.
