Survery USA gets some really strange results when they do these huge 10-15 state GE polls.  I wouldn't pay much attention to them. 

Yeah, especially because they show Hillary doing better than Obama in a general election match-up in Kentucky of all places!

Everyone knows Obama would do a hell of a lot better than Hillary in Kentucky in November.

Obama actually loses the St. Louis area to McCain in this matchup ... ROFL !

I think we can safely put 'R' next to SurveyUSA from now on.

What's their definition of East Kentucky, by any chance?

Do they mean just the good counties in the far east, or the hopeless ones in the southeast too?

(Granted, Obama's going to win 3 or 4 rural counties in the area, no matter what happens.)

It's got Clinton County, Pulaski, Laurel, etc., so yes, I can see Obama getting beaten by a lot there. If it was just the part in the Charleston/Huntington DMA, I'd be far more worried about Obama.

Are we going to have to listen to this you're a racist if you don't vote for Obama drivel for the next 7 months?

We've listened to this "you're a traitor if you don't vote for Bush" garbage for the past 8 years, so fair is fair.

No surprises, but wow do Kentucky folks hate Obama.

Which is odd, because people I know think he's a decent guy.

When people blame racism for Obama's poor showing states like Mass and Kentucky, they're not, by any means, calling all McCain supporters racist. They're just pointing out a very real phenomenon of American politics and society; some people are racist, and they have an aversion towards voting for a man that is black.

Besides, the racists vote Republican anyway, so even if Obama wasn't black they still wouldn't vote for him.

So why is McCain doing so well as compared to Bush?

Because Bush is an even bigger idiot.

If Obama is the nominee, then the Dems are locked out of Florida.

To be honest, who the hell needs Florida? That's the one state that's pushed the party to the right by making the Democrats futilely chase its electoral votes.

The Democrats can win without Florida - and should. They should focus on the Midwest.

Not if he'd focused on Colorado, Missouri, and West Virginia, the way a Democrat should.

He could have just written off the whole right-to-scab world except Iowa and still won.

Al Gore lost Colorado by over 8 points.

If he was allowed to spend a thing there, he would have won it.

But no. The DLC told him we need "FLOOOOOOOOOORIDA!!!"

He would have, but for the DLC's scumbaggery.
