BREAKING: McCaskill up 10 pts over Akin in Missouri Poll »
August 23, 2012
Another Crack in the Blue Wall
Connecticut.
Before anyone says "omgaadfksfjxjhzjkjxghasueehdshn" Rasmussen, PPP found the same number just weeks ago in the state: President Obama 51% Mitt Romney 43%.
Considering the state went to Obama by 22 points in 2008, this is bad.
Considering McMahon will mostly self fund and is currently leading the Democrat there, it is nightmarish.
Will the state go to Romney? Not likely, and if it did we already swept all the purple states anyway. But it is indicative of the sizable shift against the President, and matches my warning months ago to watch the blue and light blue states. Romney has begun to target, hard, the Blue Wall. He has made at least one potential gain (Wisconsin), and is actively aiming for two more (Michigan and Pennsylvania). Keep hammering. Keep out-spending. Go Big.
