1. WOW just WOW - go Florida!!

[Schulzz]

2. Obama's efforts in Florida are starting to pay off.

All new polls have Florida tied, some weaks ago McCain led by 4-5 point.

[SuperTrouper]

3. Devastating news for McFarewell

[Hope And Change]

4. K & R!

5. I wonder if McCain has ads up there now. Before they were saying McCain did not have any ads up

while Obama was running ads.

[Bleacher Creature]

6. Great news, but how does 48% of ANY state still see McCain as a viable candidate after last week??

It boggles the mind.

[bluestateguy]

7. Good news

Keep this in mind. McCain must win Florida to win. Obama has other pathways to winning without Florida. If he can bog down McCain in Florida, then he takes away McCain's resources in other states.

[Schulzz]

8. The social security ad is working.

And perhaps most disturbing for the McCain campaign, Senator Obama has erased 16 points off of Senator McCain's 24-point lead among voters older than Senator McCain.

[Robbins]

9. Great

The Big news Is Obama has pulled up with Older voters particular Older Men.

Many thought Florida would be a easy win for Mccain because of fallout from the Primarys.This
Isn't happening.

10. Obama MUST hammer rising unemployment in the next debate!!

I heard on the radio that Florida's unemployment will continue to rise through the Fall. We are having a terrible state budget crisis here and our economy is going to continue to tank.

Plus, he MUST tie McCain to Bush's privatization of Social Security scheme.

He CAN win here but he must hammer these points home!!!

11. Can McCain win without carrying Florida?

If John Mccain loses Florida, does he have any shot of winning?

[jacksonian]

12. No

[msallied]

14. Absolutely not.

Colorado and Iowa are both former Bush states turned blue.

[msallied]

13. Florida is where McCain has dumped the bulk of his resources too, if I remember correctly. LOL

Meanwhile, states he was counting on are turning blue, and Florida is a part of that tide. Something tells me the old folks down there aren't much liking the looks of their portfolios...

[Lochloosa]

15. Yes and we got 39 million committed by Obama.

I think it may be paying off.

[populistdriven]

16. McSame has been running ads on Spanish radio non stop, I hope Obama does this soon....
