Oh I'm sure it was but at the time it was posted it already had about 178,000 votes. I think it is funny because usually these types of polls are so heavily "DU'ed".

In oregon it is only 56-44, but still!

I do think there is going to be a lot of buyers remorse by August 1.

Oh, and polls? Who gives a shit? I do seem to recall back about 32 years ago, Jimmy Carter led Ford by nearly 30 points after the conventions, and look how Ford closed the gap. Popular opinion holds that had the campaign gone on another week, Ford would have won the election.

I mean, they got Hellannoys as 57% McCain, but we got a lot of idiots here falling for the BarackStar's charm. It'll be a hell of a lot closer than that. Now if we were running a hardcore conservative.... yeah, then that map would be about right.
