Don't Get Cocky....Buuuut....
Blogs for Bush

Has everyone checked out the recent slew of State polls?

CNN/USA Today/Gallup have it 52/43 for President Bush in Ohio, 48/47 in Pennsylvania, 55/41 in Missouri and 44/52 in Washington...not a bad run, if you ask me; comfortable in the "must win" State of OH and MO, giving Donk's the shakes in their "must win" States of WA and PA. And Rasmussen puts Kerry up by only 4 in New Jersey (Gore by 15 in 2000) and by 8 in California (Gore by 11 in 2000).

Missouri is still accounted a "battleground" State for this election - but with four of the last five polls in MO showing the President ahead outside the margin of error, I'm beginning to wonder just how our punditry is calculating "battleground".

All of this, of course, is part of the post-convention "bounce" the President got from our magnificent convention in New York last week - but its still nice to see movement our way.
