Good news for Obama in Oregon
A McCain vs. Obama heads-up poll offers some encouragement for Obama in Oregon. Rasmussen says this:
5/7: 38 McCain, 52 Obama
“The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone poll in Oregon shows Barack Obama leading John McCain 52% to 38%. That’s a significant improvement for Obama compared to a month ago when he led the presumptive Republican nominee by six percentage points. In three consecutive Oregon polls, McCain has never received more than 40% support when matched against Obama. In the current poll, McCain attracts just 68% support from Republican voters in the state.”
To put a little perspective on this, in 2004 Oregon gave John Kerry 51.35% of the vote and Bush 47.19%.
When we look at Josephine County, however, the results were somewhat different. Bush got 62.1% of the vote and Kerry only 36.0%.

I am a democrat. You know the old saying that all politicians lie. Well if Obama is on the ticket instead of Hilary we will have a double wammie. Now we will have a Politician and a Lawyer and that would be a double lier or lie!
