John McCain 47%
Barack Obama 46%

Obama wins Youth and Seniors, McCain everyone else.  How in the world is it possible for Minnesota to be going red when NC is going blue?

This is not a concern troll diary, I am 100% behind Obama and have been for a while.  However todays Rasmussen tracker is seriously worrying me.

It went from

Obama +3

To

Tied

From yesterday to today, suggesting McCain got a big bump coming out of the weekend.  This is horrible news considering Obama announced his VP to some pretty good press.  Is this just PUMA's moving even further away due to Hillary not being picked, or did Obama just make huge mistake in this selection?

Thoughts?

Fox News just claimed Obama has pulled all ads from South Dakota, Montana, Florida and Virginia.

Is this true?  I didn't even think they had targeted South Dakota, only North Dakota.

Sorry for the short diary, but i had not heard this before.

Here they are directly from The Page...

Interesting info from My Life here via Political Wire from Nat

Despite Sen. Hillary Clinton's insistence that her husband didn't clinch the Democratic presidential nomination until June 1992, Bill Clinton had a very different recollection in his own memoir, My Life.

He writes: "On April 7, we also won in Kansas, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. On April 9, Paul Tsongas announced that he would not reenter the race. The fight for the nomination was effectively over."

-------------------------

One must wonder about the intellectual honesty of Hillary's statement about June and 1992, especially when her husband has said things like this in a book.

But i can already forsee the spin.  Perhaps Hillary meant the race was not over, because voting was not over.  Even though the math did not add up then either, like now, perhaps that is the spin?

Thoughts?

SUSA has polled a bunch of VP matchups and a straight generic Obama McCain matchup in Ohio and Obama comes out the huge winner!

http://www.surveyusa.com/index.php/2008/ 05/23/ohio-vp-matchups/

Obama is up +8 in a straight matchup, and wins virtually every battle with VPs included.

Looks like great numbers for Obama in Ohio!!!!

No link or info, but Halperin would not post this without knowing something i think.

Anyone have any more info or rumors at least?

Sorry for low info, just trying to see whats going on here.

A California congresswoman with long ties to both Clintons will announce her endorsement of Barack Obama today, a campaign source said.

Rep. Lois Capps, who represents a district on California's central coast, is the third member of Congress to announce an endorsement of Senator Obama Wednesday, the day after he responded sharply to one of the deepest crises of his campaign, a confrontational and, he said, "appalling" set of remarks by his former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. The campaign is using the flurry of endorsements to shore up political support and demonstrate the frontrunner's continuing strength.

----------------

The tide has been stemed and Senator Obama is clearly on the victory path.  He will continue to roll out major superdelegates like this all the way until Denver if he has to, but hopefully it does not come to that.

Excellent day for Supers!!!

Obama - 3
Clinton - 2
