Last RCP Kerry/Bush vs. Obama

2004 vs Today

Ohio - Bush +2.1
Ohio - Obama +4.2

PA - Kerry +0.9
PA - Obama +7.0

VA - Bush +4.0
VA - Obama +7.0

FL - Bush +0.6

Throw in all the new voters, enthusiasm, wrong direction level, early voting results and chill!

1. Thanks. I have been looking at these all week long. The RCP #'s
were incredibly accurate. I guess when you average polls together and not cherry pick it makes sense. No way McLame takes PA and I think Obama takes VA as well.

3. Yes, looking back - I can't believe we were so certain Kerry
would win - with his numbers. (although he probably really did win!

I am from Manchester CT !

7. Really? Manchester! I am from Terryville, right next to Bristol.
Isn't it nice to live in a blue state? Only thing that bums me out is no one comes to visit us. Well, Hillary did during the primaries but we never really get many visitors. And we have Joe Loserman as our Senator. Chris Murphy is my rep and I will be so happy to reelect him. Not sure which one is yours in Manchester.

9. My family is still there - I am in Nola. No one came here either -
even though it has tightened here. Yes, miss living in a blue state. How many more years does Joe have. Pity
you can't recall a senate race !

11. Hey Kerry won. He threw in the towel prematurely. Obama ain't gonna
have to worry about that.

4. No they are not - but they are probably trying to make it sound
like a horse race. Plouffe just made a great statement..."We don't have to draw an inside straight to win."
