Kerry ahead 48-46----- IN THE SOUTH!

Mr. Bush has also shown weakness in what is considered to be his best region, the South. While Kerry’s choice of Senator John Edwards gives him his biggest boost, his economic populism and courting of veterans are also key in his eroding of Mr. Bush’s support. Not only has Kerry now come to a tie with Bush in favorability in the South (55% for both), the Kerry-Edwards ticket has pulled ahead, 48% to 46% in the South. President Bush’s job performance is down to only 44% in the South, and only 43% of Southerners think the country is headed in the right direction.

YEEHAW!

2. Did I miss something?
Was this pre-convention or post-convention polling? I didn't see it at your link.

8. Yeah but who would think we would lead the whole southern region?
I'll take it! I am very curious to see if there was a small bounce elsewhere, but they said so many people made up their minds already that no one expected a big bounce.

3. So is anyone still wondering...
Why Kerry not only picked John Edwards, but the Kerry Campaign has also articulated a "Southern Strategy" of its own (five "targeted" Southern states in addition to Florida)?:eyes:

Apparently Kerry's "internals" showed this trend before Zogby made his data public!:D

B-)
