Bush only up 49-43 in Kentucky???

[Doosh]

I've heard about a recently released Garin-Hart-Yang poll that shows Kerry on 6 points behind in Kentucky? I can't find an official source anywhere on the net yet

1. Clinton won Kentucky twice.

2. Yep,

I don't think Kentucky or Tennessee will be as winnable for Kerry as they were for Clinton, but I do think that they are definately in play.

3. Garin-Hart-Yang is a Dem outfit,

and I usually take partisian polling groups with a grain of salt.

I would imagine dumbya's numbers to be much higher than 49% on election day in Kentucky.

4. Kerry won Kentucky primary, but Edwards had a good showing also

there are a more than a few southern states where kerry isn't too far behind and is actually doing pretty good considering his being from massachusettes is seen as a liability. i think edwards might help to add a few points and can help get victory in some of these states.

7. although a staunch clark supporter,

it is my feeling that edwards will be an asset in southern states, and overall. just a feeling :shrug:

5. The South is hard hit by joblessness and lack of social programs

Definitely winnable by a Democrat with a strong message.

6. There is something that has to be taken into account with these numbers.

Before the conventions, a lot of states seem to be within reach and their numbers seem to be a lot closer than you would imagine. I remember this in 2000 when it looked like New York and Illinois were in play for Bush and for a time Georgia looked like it was in play for Gore. However, these numbers seem to correct themselves as the campaign goes on.

8. Just let's you know how bad Bush is doing

His numbers are just about as bad in North Carolina.

We can win this.
