Obama Only Ahead By 12 Points In Chicago?
Update: PPP Says Romney/Ryan Is Ahead in Wisconsin

Chicago proper and its suburbs. Which he'd have to win by larger margins to win the whole state of Illinois, as the non-Chicago parts of the state are much more Republican.

Is this something?

I'll assume it's just a bit of a fluke unless another poll suggests Illinois is at least only a Lean Democrat.

Via @comradearthur. Even optimistic @conartcritic is skeptical here.

Update: Hot Air has updated to note PPP, a Democratic-client firm, is tweeting that Romney/Ryan are ahead in Wisconsin.

@conartcritic has long maintained that Wisconsin is a very good pickup opportunity, even before Ryan was added to the ticket.
