In Minnesota, Obama Leads By Two
By Charles Lemos on August 20, 2008 at 1:55 AM in Barack Obama, John McCain, Minnesota
A new Survey USA poll in Minnesota shows Senator Obama leading Senator McCain by two points, 47% to 45%. Since that’s within the margin of error, the race in the Gopher state is effectively a dead heat.
On the plus side for Obama, Minnesota appears one place where Obama does not face a PUMA backlash. PUMA is a wide coalition of anti-Obama forces that coalesced out of the supporters of Senator Clinton. Obama has a comfortable nine point edge among women in Minnesota.
According to a KSTP exclusive new SurveyUSA poll, Barack Obama leads John McCain by two points, 47 to 45 percent in Minnesota.
That’s well within the three-point-eight percent margin of error. Four percent prefer another candidate. Only four percent are undecided.
The poll not only shows a close race, but also points again to Minnesota voters becoming increasingly polarized.
In the poll of 682 “likely voters,” McCain has the support of 89 percent of republicans. Obama garners support from 86 percent of democrats. McCain has a narrow two-point lead among independents.
McCain does have a bit of a gender-gap to contend with. He leads by three points among men, but Obama leads by nine points among women.
No matter how you analyze the numbers, they point to a close race in Minnesota just over 70 days until Election Day.
From my blog, By The Fault.
Oh geez. That’s pretty pathetic!
Here’s hoping it gets more so. If they’re intent on nominating a guy with zero experience and even less intelligence, there needs to be a fairly serious rebuffing. We shall see.
you betcha!
BREAKING: McCain up by 5 over Obama in monthly national Zogby/Reuters poll:
http://www.reuters.com/article/politicsNews/idUKN1948672420080820?sp=true
This is gigantic. Obama is losing more Dems and is now not even on top when discussing the economy.
It is time to get things made right in Denver.
There’s only one person who can save us now:
Hillary.
This is not surprising. Go on world tour, give a political rally in Germany, then go on vacay is not the way to win an election. Oh yeah, and calling the base to your party names is not a viable plan to win an election.
GOOD maybe the SUPERS will SEE this and change their mind before the convention!
Ya think they may grow some spine and vote for the STRONGEST candidate against McCain?
sigh
I’m not holding my breath.
ON a lighter note. I received a note from Cindy S and she’s full steam ahead running against Pelosi. That should please some people here yes? LOL
Cindy is VERY honest and NOT in it for the money so that puts her head and shoulders above Nancy (sorry) from the GET GO. She’s also got mui spine dudes!
She’s perfect for Pelosi’s district.
I did inform her that I am NOW unaffiliated. We’ll see if I hear back from her. (I’m betting I will)
We’re all waking up to the full reality that neither side is 100 percent right or wrong. It’s the “individual PEOPLE” that make or break their party.
My GOD, that’s…horrific!!
And we know how reliable young voters are…ask “Be Clean for Gene” McCarthy…or George McGovern…or Howard Dean.
Zogby has had his head so far up obama’s rectum that I’m surprised he hasn’t charged for a colonoscopy. this is great news. If the syncophant zogby reports obama behind by five, then light the fireworks. Oh superdelegates, fortitude, courage, integrity, patriotism, anyone?
Feel like having a democrat pres? Better get us Hillary you sniveling wimps.
So the purpose of superdelegates is to make sure we arrive on time for our voyage on the Titanic?
LOL! apparently so, except to the SDs. It makes me wonder, are they like a jury - do they sequester themselves from all news, all polls, and are only fed kool-aid day in and out?
Superdelegates are there to make sure we don’t miss the iceberg sweetie. We have a date with destiny.
They’ll show us to our cabins, and point out where those damned McCain Lifejackets are stored…!
It remains to be seen if there are sufficient Hillary lifeboats when we hit that inevitable iceberg!
Minnesota the state that brought us Humphrey and Mondale…..and even THEY don’t really like Barry the Wimp.
MN is not longer been the Democratic stronghold that it was during the time of Humphrey and Mondale, and has not been for several years, so drawing that comparison is no longer relevant.
Republicans have moved into the state, drawn by the high quality of life (great schools, gorgeous parks, focus on the arts, etc) but do not want to pay the taxes to support that quality of life.
So MN has been tilting more and more to the right, pulling away from the progressive roots that always made it a wonderful place to live. What MN needs is the late, great Senator Paul Wellstone back.
You are right,and that is why we need a superior in every way candidate like Sen Clinton to bring it back into the Democratic fold.
OT..( sorry )….Anyone know anything about Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones being in a hospital in Cleveland ? Saw it at Hillbuzz and wondered if anyone knew more….Great woman and campaigner for HRC…http://hillbuzz.wordpress.com/
Got an email saying she was taken to a hospital in Cleveland, but in stable condition.
OBSP….prayin for her health…..please keep us up to date….thanks
Last I heard, her family wasn’t releasing the cause of her hospitalization. I love STJ, she is a champion. I hope she gets well soon.
Yeah…didn’t they elect that ghastly, professionally insincere, cretinous Norm “Of The China Teeth” Coleman? Good grief, what a smarmy bastard…and isn’t Al Franken having a hard time against him? You’d think he would win that in a walk!
mom2nomads
You are right. My family live in Plymouth,MN, the best city in US (NW suburb Twin Cities). And I don’t see support to Obama, no signs, no calls. By the way, unpopular Sen. Coleman (Rep.) ahead
popular comedian Al Franken (Dem.) by 7%.
Mac is on a roll. He’s found Barry’s glass jaw and thin skin. Fox tonight showing Barry talking to his supporters about the Republican’s “going negative” and that they would fight back. You could see he wasn’t taking the mocking well. Ha, Ha.
Already tried one “negative ad” and the heavy handedness dropped like a bomb…Exxon John is the refrain. Considering that Mac has endorsed all alternatives for solving the energy mess, and Obama is actually limp on the subject (until he copies someone else’s plan…apparently he was talking to T. Boone today) you have to wonder how he’s going to look like anything but the rookie he is.
If they attack him personally…which will be their way, he’ll look even more like the zero he is…no experience compared to long record, hero, etc. The guy has screwed himself. And they will continue to nail him on the vote and his lie about it on live birth abortion. The pro-life contingent is irate over this and they will dog his tracks all the way through. He’s going to lose.
Just Say No Deal / Hillary 2012
McCain voted AGAINST the Bush/Cheney energy bill; BO voted FOR it. He thinks this is a good line of attack? He is in way over his head. SD’S WAKE UP!
Need to get PUMA into Minnisota. Anyone have friends, relatives, etc there?
Perhaps they are too backward and don’t have access to Internet and are thus forced to the torture that is on Cable and network news.
/snark off.
Sorry, MN has NEVER been backwards. I don’t know why you would think that it is. The fact that PUMA is not active there merely shows that Dems there are true Dems with deep, progressive roots.
We can read your panic there sweetie. Embrace that loser candidate you are sooooooo in love with and start registering kids for him if you are that concerned. Dumb, inexperienced kids are the only hope he has.
Nope, no panic at all, sorry.
And, while I no longer live in MN, I know everyone in my family–very staunch Dems–from my 80-something grandparents on down are supporting Obama. Not one dumb kid in the bunch, just a group of very involved, dedicated Dems.
And, never fear, I am involved with Democrats Abroad and helping Americans living in Ireland to register so they can vote in the GE.
Huh? I live right here in MN and don’t know even one Obama supporter. Not even one. Never see a yard sign or bumper sticker.
What’s up with that?
Too funny mom2nomads…..HOW MANY CATHOLICS HAVE YOU GOT FOR BARRY SO FAR…..LOL
My family are all Irish Catholic (but pro-choice) Dems who live in the Twin Cities and some of the suburbs. They have been Dems from the time my great-grandparents immigrated to the US from Ireland and made their way to MN.
Sorry we don’t fit into the pre-concieved notions so many people have about Obama’s “base.”
Whate a close-minde statement, you can’t judge someone’s political leanings by their religion, partuclarly in Europe.
Obama is extremely popular here in Ireland, both with Irish and with the Americans who are living here. I cannot wear my Obama t-shirts out without having people stop me and want to talk about the election and, to the person, everyone I talk to from our doctor, to our friends, to strangers on the street, are pulling very strongly for Obama. They hate Bush and they see McCain as more of the same.
The Clintons are very popular here as well and the Irish are well-aware of their views on choice. The Irish are very politically savvy and cannot wait to see the Repulicans out of office.
Ah, yes, IRELAND!! Now, that would be one of the fifty seven states, now, would it?
Gee, not a one of my Irish relatives in Galway support Barry O’Bama, not a one! And I’ve a massive family over that way, too! I’ll bet it’s larger than your family in Minnesota! They’re more inclined toward that Mick feller, the one with the Irish surname.
Of course, they can’t vote, as they’re not AMERICAN…so who gives a shit what the cousins across the pond think…eh?
I’d say their “anecdotal evidence” is about as useful as yours…that is to say, it ISN’T USEFUL at all!
There are tens of thousands and of Americans who live in Ireland, and who will vote in the election.
I honestly don’t care if you believe me or not, makes no difference. But, since I actually live here in Dublin (my husband works for the State Dept) I have a pretty fair idea of how Americans living in Ireland are leaning–towards Obama. And, yea, I’ve got family here as well, in Mayo, who wish they could vote for Obama.
What the hell do the Irish know about Obama? Most people are just getting to know him here and everything is negative. The only thing keeping him afloat is the so-called historic event.
Be careful what you ask for, especially when you don’t even understand what you are asking for.
Ah, you don’t live there, you don’t even live in the continental United States… but you “know” what the conditions are on the ground, because, of course, a few
fictionalrelatives represent The Entire State like a Neilsen Family–yeah…that’s the ticket!Good thing your Statewide Population Mind Reading machine is in good working order–you’ll need that, since your Irony Meter is so badly broken!
Oh, and based on your posts here, thus far you have scored a firm seven point five on the PUMA FEAR meter! Congratulations!
It would be higher, that score, but you’re plainly lacking in critical awareness skills, which do mitigate your results.
Yea, you are right. I don’t live in the US right now because my husband is a Foreign Service Officer and, as a State Dept. family, we move frequently.
Right now we happen to be living in Ireland, before that we were in Guinea, in one year my husband will be leaving for a year in Iraq. So I would say your judgment of my awareness of American politics is very, very misplaced. We stay very educated about what is happening in our country, we keep our family very connected and our children know, despite our overseas life, they are American.
And, BTW, I maintain that personal insults such as the kind you make are what people do to make up for weak arguments. But nice try.
yeah, that’s the obama way, just brush off insults as irrelevant, but it actually affected him.
You mean the Ireland that was defeated by the British and now is part of Great Britain? Ireland?
I’ve known quite a few Irish and Irish Americans. They are catholic, they drink for any reason and they make a great stew amd throw great parties, but their political savvy has been rather limited, including the fiasco of the catholic/protestant wars that lasted about 100 years too long.
So the irish are weighing in on Obama? Who cares! And when Obama loses they’ll still all sit in the pub and drink to his defeat! Gotta love the Irish!
I would like to know where you are getting your history. Ireland, as in “The Republic of” is not “part of Great Brtitain.” They gained their independence in the 1920s. My God. If I had been talking about the North of Ireland I would have said that. And, BTW, Gerry Adams is one of the most politically savvy politicians of our time. Before you start slamming how other countries conduct their politics you might try learning something about them first.
And it is appalling to read that some Americans have such negative stereotypes of the Irish, still. Have you ever heard of the Nativist movement (I’ll give you a hint, they were an anti-Catholic, anti-Irish group in America)? You might check them out because it sounds like you would fit right in, Why don’t you try traveling a little bit, break out of your bubble, Buzz, and get to know the world beyond your stereotypes.
And, BTW, before the Bush Ad. we used to care about what the rest of the world thought of us. Aren’t you supposed to be a Clinton supporter? Don’t you know that the Clinton’s actually do care about how we, as Americans, are viewed by other countries?
You mean the Ireland that was defeated by the British and now is part of Great Britain? Ireland?

Do you see the reward you get for trying to talk civilly with PUMAS? Generally speaking it is not reciprocated.
Yeah, I’ve found that out. But I can’t teach my children to “play nice” and not do the same myself. Too bad not everyone can play by those rules, we might actually get some things accomplished.
While a Republican (recently switched after Dems nominated Franken and Mr. O), I strongly agree w/ mom2nomads statement. MN is progressive. Compare its corruption to Illinois where Mr. O is from. MN Republicans and Democrats work for the betterment of their state and its citizens. There is clean government here. Not the slimy, legislate for bribes that exists in Chicago.
Oookay…but you might want to review what happened to one of your most progressive and popular senators, Paul Wellstone, who was targeted by the Republican party in the 2002 election as a candidate they must defeat.
I’m sure you remember that Senator Wellstone died in a plane crash 11 days before the election and according to Minnesota law his name was removed from the ballot and replaced with former Vice President Walter Mondale - not exactly an unknown candidate - selected by the Democratic party.
And in spite of Rick Kahn, and others, urging Minnesota voters to “win one for Wellstone” by voting for the Democratic nominee you elected Republican Norm Colman.
Colman was the mayor of St.Paul, the guy who lost to Jesse Ventura and the Republican choice to replace Wellstone. Mainstream media reported that the Republican party was so determined to defeat Wellstone that they threw as much money into the race as Obama did to “buy” his selection. It appeares that Minnesota has “followed the money” trail before Obama. Same old party politics.
Senator Wellstone had a very wide appeal, he appealed to both hardcore Dems and to moderate Republicans and Independents. While Republicans did not agree with his progressive poltics they knew he was a stand-up man with integrity to spare. They knew that he was a fighter for the people, so they voted for someone who they knew was always true to his word. Integrity matters in MN.
Moi’s post above is right, MN politics has always been clean. I remember very clearly the moment that I learned of Senator Wellstone’s death because I knew our state had lost a champion. I believe, to this day, that he would have won his seat hands down. While Mondale is obviously a home-grown MN Dem he did not have the same kind of wide-appeal.
I believe that all the Dems of MN will do the right thing come the GE and vote for Obama.
Are you insane? An idiot? Or simply BRAZEN?
Obama flipflops, all the time. Wellstone was a man who ALWAYS kept his word.
Wellstone was a dyed-in-the-wool LIBERAL; Obama is a closeted, gay-loathing Republican-Except-In-Name with a fake veneer of “Yes We Can” and pretty brown skin to hide the vicious, corporatist GOP-ness of his worldview.
And Wellstone’s DFL stance was as far away from Obama’s Pragmatic Bullshitter stance as is possible to be and still be on the same frigging planet!
Obama is like Wellstone as a fish is like a bicycle.
How do you manage to get out of bed each day and feed and clothe yourself, burdened as you are with that low level of intelligence?
You definitely are a troll, we know that, and find that kind of funny, but that post shows you to be a really dumb one. And we don’t honor ABJECT STUPIDITY around here, “Sweetie.” You’ll have to head over to Team O to get some love for that!
I always wondered about that crash.
And Norm Coleman? What a fucking SLEAZE.
What’s up with THAT marriage?
Wanna see something DISGUSTING? Norm Coleman got free dental work…and here’s the BEFORE AND AFTER (page is a slow loader–they really need to work on that at that site):

RFLMAO….Aaaand….Who said CHICKLETS were just for chewin….chuckle…
That “snark off” (/snark) part of the other person’s post, prominently displayed, meant that they were being ironic, a smartass, unserious, having a bit of fun.
Is your Irony Meter not working, or are you afflicted with perpetual humorlessness?
Minnesota? Isn’t the state bird a loon? They had a loon for governor in the guise of a joke of a ex pro-wrestler. Progressive? Minnesota?
Good lord. Minnesota will go McCain if Hillary isn’t our nominee. They’ve learned their lesson about voting for cartoon characters. Obama will tank hard.
LMAO!!!
We also elected Keith Ellison, a Muslim and one of the most progressive representatives in Congress. Minnesota is trending blue again. Obama will win here come November, bank on it.
Mitt Romney has the mormon baggage and it would be best for McCain to stay away from him as VP. Romney would be better in a cabinet position.
The best case scenario would be to have Hillary be the nominee or a McCain/Clinton ticket. But that change may be too radial for many.
Zogby does favor Obama - too much - and so the picture may actually be worse for Obama than what’s being reported.
I don’t know of anyone who is voting for Obama including our favorite waiter at a cafe who’s 24. He says that Obama is a Mac Daddy and has no business screwing with the United States. So there’s at least one of Obama’s base that is flying the bird at Obama.
True Dems do endorse voter suppression, spying on citizens, and blurring of church vs. state boundaries. Read the Constitution sweetie.
oops: DO NOT NOT NOT ENDORSE…
Sorry, that’s Minnesota
Ohio poll this week, shows Obama and McCain tied. Not only that, but 89% of Repubs support McCain, but only 75% of Dems support Obama. How sad and pathetic, that ONE QUARTER of your party doesn’t support you! What a loser, DNC WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?
And now, as of today, RCP, who has diligently been following the potential electoral vote count, with Obama ahead all this time….McCain has now pulled ahead by 10 electoral votes (with no toss up states.)
The tide is turning, Americans are waking up.
No Obama, the liar, the fraud, the trash.
New Ohio poll has McCain up +5.
I do not want my 9, 8, 7, 3, and 6 weeks old grandchildren to grow up in a country being run by Barack Hussein Obama.
A vote for Hillary Clinton means never having to say you’re sorry.

Someone else posted this link last night and it’s a MUST SEE video. After the commercial go :38 seconds in to the video for the hug sequence. Hillary is stumping for Odumdum. Richardson is there and they have a moment. They shake hands, are about to do a hug, but then Richardson wants to give her a kiss on the cheek and she couldn’t let him do it. GO HILLARY! I wouldn’t want him kissing me either especially after all that went down!
LOL HILARIOUS!!!
Her body languages was so completely “Dont touch me with those lying lips you f*ckwad! I am only here because i have to be.”
And
Did you see the row of turbans in the stands? OMG hahahah. You cant be photogrpahed wearing a turban around Obama but if its hillary Get a dozen turbans in a row!!!
LOL…omg
Stagecraft
Stagecraft
Stagecraft.
If I were her, I’d scream keep your slimy paws off me you two faced back stabbing a@@!!
Look at her mouth immediately after she thanks BR for “being here today”. Hilarious!
Perfect! And she left him looking like a maroon!!! Also she never looked at him when she thanked him … She probably got some lessons from Bill who I hope enjoyed watching this as much as we did!
That was too hysterical. It also shows how biased the media is concerning the candidacy of Obama. Only a blind person would not be able to see the tension in that hug and the rebuffed kiss. Yet the news story centered on the unity in the Dem Party. I kept waiting for a punch line at the end with the reporter saying, “All is well in Obamaland, or is it?”
OH. MY. GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is a SCREAM!!!!!!!!!!
The look on her face, the stiff-arm she gives that fat bastard, why, it’s priceless!!
And even the little correspondent “on the scene” providing the report, he gives a little “gulp” after he tells The Big Lie that that the Party is unified….wonder who left a horse head in HIS bed/
That’s some serious must-see TV. I’ve never seen “Back off, you fucking sleazy and duplicitous asshole,” pantomimed more effectively in a few brief seconds!
And doesn’t Our Senator look, well… mahvellous?
She lit up the room!
There are PUMAs in Minnesota - doing what we can, but our Feb. caucus on a cold night with Obamats filling parking lots early made it tough - then most SDs caved even though they know caucus outcome didn’t represent most of Dems in state.
Bottom line - if you want to focus on a MN SD, contact Senator Amy Klobuchar who won because PUMA people were there for her 2 years ago. But Obama PAC gave her $10,000 this year and she drank the kool aid. Tell her “for shame” and urge her to support Clinton in Denver.
Watch this video entitled: “Bought and Paid For!”

Why should Super Delegates (SDs) turn their backs on their constituents?
Because Nancy Pelosi, a big Obama supporter, with her “PAC for the Future” is bribing SDs with PAC money!
Watch the video and see if a delegate in your state is on-the-take. Clinton won in their districts and states. Yet the Super Delegates, exposed in this video, sold their souls to the deveil for $10,000 and committed to Obama.
Go to

and tell your state delegates what you think about them selling you out for $10,000! Here’s the list:

Obama is absolutely hemorrhaging support in every poll. He is going to lose this election, and at the current pace, he may lose it very, very badly.
Uh…?
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/polls/
OMG Anon is right huh?
Obama is up 17 points on McCain Nationaly!
Oh Wait no….that was Dukakis
And we all know how that turned out!!!
LOL
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/maps/obama_vs_mccain/?map=10
I was looking at the past maps to.
Its a shame the DNC at Baracebaitor Odalilama’s behest tarred and fethered Bill Clinton.
He was the only successful Democrat to redraw the electoral map…another one of Barky Oblowhards promises that he can’t deliver on.
Also…wow…Reagan term 2 was a BLOW OUT! I forgot how bad it was. Nobody talks about that one…granted it was a very popular president but my god how embarassing for the DNC.
Guess they just love to lose.
Oh Well..OBAMA/Soebelis 08!! GO GO GO
Go Down in a flameing ball of OOPS they Screwed up again!!
Personally I am hoping he outdoes the McGovern record of 38%. I want this hoax to be righteously embarrassed into obscurity.
Then Barry Soetoro can go to Kenya and build a house for his Kenyan Grandmother. And he can dream of his daddy — or make up more stories.
Just GO Barry — go away.
And the good thing about that, or one of the many good things about that is, besides taking Dean, Brazile, Pelosi, and Reid he’ll also take James Roosevelt, Alice Travis Germond, Susan Turnbull, Don and Carol Fowler, Ward and a lot of those other snots on the DNC with him - They can’t hide any more. And Allan Katz who didn’t realize after May 31 they would hold their annual R&B Committee reunions in “Dante’s seventh circle of hell”.
Except I need a list of their names and how they voted. Especially if they have a little tools that tells them every their name is mentioned on the Internet.
Too bad for Barky there won’t be any caucuses on Election Day.
I think we should be more concerned about mail in ballots + walk in votes from dead people…thats how they play in chicago.
That is why it can’t be a close election. We need to landslide McCain.
Here is another huge concern. Obama, even if he doesn’t win enough electoral votes, can be “CHOOSEN” by the electors as our president. Just like what the DNC did.
Read about the Electoral College.
After Election Day, on the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December, these electors assemble in their state capitals, cast their ballots, and officially select the next President of the United States. Legally, the electors may vote for someone other than the candidate for whom they were pledged to vote. This phenomenon is known as the “unfaithful” or “faithless” elector. Generally, this does not happen. Here are 2 sites to read about it

Does anyone have any more information about Stephanie Tubbs Jones? MSN is reporting she is in the hospital and her family has requested no information be released. Hope she’ll be ok. She is so wonderful and courageous. While so many were busy selling their souls to make a deal with the devil, she managed to keep her integrity in the face of threats and harrasment.
I’m waiting for the press to start calling for McCain to drop out.
Uppity,
There’s a post at Clinton dems. com trashing PUMA by some delegates, who are unhappy with us.
Go get it.
It’s happening everywhere - lead melting in NY too (47 to 39). Tide is turning

MSNBC is replacing Dan Abrams from his 9 p.m. program with Obamabot R. Maddow. Dan Abrams was at last semi neural and seems have to pay for it. But now MSNBC will have Olbermann-Maddow block from September 8. Guess they are really scary LoL
Calling Obama an empty suit is an insult to clothes hangers everywhere.
Maddow’s been auditioning for that spot for over a year. She’s basically blown off her Air America “duties” to spend an hour kissing Obama’s butt on television, an hour which has been simulcast on AA.
I guess MSNBC figures it wants a lineup set up to trash President McCain on a daily basis.
since i only have one word to describe the piece of filth that is maddow, and it is a word I never use, even in the heat of anger, I can comment no further.
