4. I'm sure Minnesota will be closer than that

That's good news, but make no mistake about it, the Bush team wants to make history by carrying Minnesota, which would be the first time a Republican has done it since 1972.

I was pleased to see that Nader only has 2% in Minnesota. Last time he won over 5% in the state. Perhaps swing state voters who are sympathetic to Nader are wising up.

I hope this means I'll have to watch fewer Bush tv ads. (They may not bother with Minnesota regional advertising based on polls like this).

9. You only need one to win, so...

Would you mind loaning some of those extra points to Texas? We could use 'em down here.

11. "Swing State my ass..." indeed!

Keep in mind, ever since the last primaries, this market has been bombardered with Bush/Cheney ads (replete with "I'm George W. Bush, and I approve this message").

IMO, the best one was with the one with the "Bahstin" (Boston) Policeman talking about his experience as a Kerry constituent, saying we'll all be taxed beyond our own incomes. Obviously, that played quite well with the "Ollie and Lena" types they'd have us believe is a Republican base, as Bush isn't even polling well all over the north.
