CNN

IT WOULD BE AMERICAS WORST MISTAKE ELECTING O.B. WITH AGE COMES WISDOM. WE DONT NEED A MEDIA CLOWN UNEXPERIENCED GREENHORN RUNNING OUR COUNTRY. NATIONAL SECURITY IS THE MAIN ISSUE. WITHOUT THAT WE DONT NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THE OTHER ISSUES. THINK ABOUT IT. TODAY GEORGIA TOMMORROW U.S.A.

I'm getting my PhD soon. So, those who say people with degrees vote for Obama have a flawed argument because there is no way I will vote for him. I'm a democrat voting for McCain.

HERE MEDIA GUY TAKE A PICTURE OF ME WALKING DOWN THE BEACH HOLDING MY KIDS HANDS-LIKE REV WRIGHT SAID OBAMA IS A POLITICIAN – COULD IT BE STAGED

New Jersey is for Obama

I too say that all American's should redouble there efforts to make sure that the country is headed in a new direction. Please donate to the Obama campaign–NOW!

Obama is actually down in these polls as it is likely voters that are reported. He is only up by 5 in Pennsylvania, the lowest poll in a long time. Nothing like reporting the real numbers and not just propaganda CNN? Oh right it's CNN.

Ryan Albequerque, NM
What in the name of common sense does the Senator's vacation have to do with the Russian/Gorgian conflict. Hello, he's not president now....and by the way neither is McCain (he's the Gorgian guy). It's an issue that Bush should address and not by sabre rattling.

Why don't you go put a cold pack on your head so your senses can be revived.

The Pennsylvanians went for Kerry last time, but he did not win the Presidency. NJ has always been dem country – bunch of left wing liberals there.

DADDYEXPERIENCE IN WAR should have no march not in Arizona.

Yes we can!!! Please lets unite......McCain is not the answer we need we all know that!!!

Obama 08/12!!!

Would someone who supports Obama, actually works AND pays taxes please explain to me why? His programs all point to huge increases in socialist-style government spending that can only be supported by tremendous increases in tax revenue. And since democrats don't understand that lowering the tax rates actually increases revenue, then you know what's going to happen if BO wins.........

Once the younger population following Obama goes back to school later this month, they will start forgetting and the numbers will drop.

I AM NOT VOTING TO BENEFIT OBAMA, THIS NOVEMBER.

I AM VOTING FOR OBAMA SO CHILDREN CAN HAVE MEDICAL

INSURANCE, BETTER NUTRITION DUE TO A BETTER

ECONOMY, BETTER EDUCATION & MOST OF ALL A BETTER

COUNTRY & WORLD TO GROW & LIVE IN. MCSENILE IS JUST

A DEMENTED OLD SHADY CHARACTER WAITING TO SELL

US AGAIN RIGHT DOWN THE SAME CRAPPER GEORGE DID.

McCain all the way

John McCain 08

The Old Man is again talking to the Clouds – as we speak (in Michigan).

Actually I am glad that he speaks more. The more he speaks the more people he will scare off

OBAMA ‘08

I love the pic with the kids.

AMERICANS DON'T QUIT THEIR WELL PAYING

JOBS BECAUSE THE COMPETENT CEO OF

THE COMPANY IS BLACK. WE WANT TO SUCCEED.

THE BLUE COLLAR WORKERS OF THIS NATION

WANT THEIR CHILDREN WELL, WELL EDUCATED &

PROSPEROUS & WE CAN HAVE THAT IN ONE GENERATION,

WITH GOOD POLICIES & IF WE PUT OUR MINDS TO IT.

WE DON'T NEED ANY MORE BUSH EDUCATION POLICY.

THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT ARE BENEFITING BY IT IS THE BUSH

BROTHER THAT IS MAKING MILLIONS SCAMMING THE SYSTEM.

EVERY THING BUSH DID & MCBUSH WANTS TO DO IS JUST

A HUGE SCAM FOR THE RICH TO GRAB OUR TAX DOLLARS.

Wow! Obama is leading in states that Kerry won. Thanks for pointing that out CNN...

GO OBAMA!!!!! POUND THAT OLD FART WARMONGER!! OBAMA YOU ARE "THE ONE" THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I HOPE ALL YOU OBAMA SUPPORTERS GET WANT YOU WANT AND HE GETS ELECTED....THEN YOU WILL REALLY SEE HOW BAD OFF WE CAN REALLY BE AND YOU'LL HAVE NO ONE TO BLAME BUT YOURSELF.....WAY TO GO OBAMA SUPPORTERS!!!!!

Why are you idiot Obama supporters so happy to hear this? Have you forgotten that the election is held in NOVEMBER, NOT AUGUST.

Of course Obama is up in NJ, who could vote for four/eight more years of bumbling around with our country irresponsibly.
Question: Did y'all see who helped calm down the Russians...The French President did, thanks dude!
Who do think France would rather deal with McCain or Obama? I remember the Europe trip, I would say... Obama!

CNN is so biased in Obama's favor I don't believe any of the polls they use and neither should anyone else. If it were the other way around do you think they would be blaring McCain's leads? And some polls say McCain is leading Obama or neck-in-neck. Why isn't CNN publishing those polls?

Do yourself a favor; see the movie "OBSESSION".
Or go to obsessionthemovie.com

It answered my questions as I sure it will yours!

Interesting... McCain has had the entire week to himself and can't muster much support.

Black and White yes we can

American for CHANGE

Obama 08

You don't say! I bet they still "cling to their guns and religion"; ever thou, they are not as "bitter"....................................

You republicans & Hellary supporters obviously take pride in being ignorant.

I have heard Obama being called arrogant until I could scream!! The very nerve of john mccain to say "I'm sure I speak for all Americans"!! Well here's a real news alert-you don't speak for me and please don't presume to do that again. I am not a war monger and do not wish to be known as one!
I have also seen here more times than I can count how Obama supporters do not work, are uneducated (term most often used is stupid), that we are all left wing extremists or young voters who don't bother to listen to the issues being discussed. Well, I have 2 yrs. of college, I work full time, have no plans to retire, maintain my home and lawn, and I'm 63 yrs. old and a white Southerner. I voted for mccain in 2000 (something I'm no longer proud of) but make no mistake-I'll never do it again. And never under any circumstances would I ever vote for HRC!!
Although I am an Independent, I was a volunteer and staunch supporter of another Dem. candidate. I'm not whining or threatening to vote for mccain because my first choice lost. I have accepted it and feel that I am doing what my candidate would want me to do. I suggest that all you spoiled HRC brats do the same before she ruins her future by causing a disturbance at the convention!!

Southern grandma for Obama

Confused by Ignorance – Are we supposed to be impressed with an MBA? Please, you can’t really spit without hitting one. Your MBA obviously doesn’t indicate intelligence or common sense, just arrogance. I'm not going to get into a pissing contest over education, but believe me, you and your paltry MBA would lose. I don’t support Obama and I have legitimate reasons for not supporting him. If you can’t have a political debate without attempting to paint your opponent as ignorant and uneducated, go back to the playground and let the grownups talk. Otherwise, put on your big boy pants and participate in an intelligent discussion.

Oh My!!! Here comesthe Republicans Attack ADS!!!

PA is Clinton/McCain country. Certainly not Obama country. Remember we cling to our guns and religion and don't like people who don't look like us. We remember.

ALLAN USA. August 13th, 2008 1:55 pm ET

For people who love Obama. Tell me one thing Obama did good for America. One,please.I know it's going to take all day.

*****************************************************************
Obama makes Americans proud to be Americas!

All you people who are whining about the amount of coverage Obama is receiving, you really should be glad! After all, if they REALLY covered McCain as they do Obama, even you would see just how wrong McCain is for this country.

Just how much have you heard McCain talk about what he is going to do for us? I can answer that honestly for you...very, very little. What we hear mostly from McCain is surge, surge, drill, surge, surge....

John McCain couldn't acknowledge the very man that saved HIS life in Vietnam in his book. How in the world could you ever think he would acknowledge any real issues we the American people are faced with? Check out: Vietnam Veterans against John McCain and see for yourself!

War is all Big John knows.................

YES WE CAN,YES WE CAN,YES WE CAN.....ok, now what are we supposed to do.?

"VOTE OBAMA "

Only by a little CNN.

As a small city Pennsylvania native, I am heartened to see my home state even coming into the 20th century, for crying out loud, let alone the 21st century! Change is accepted slowly there, so it is good to see that folks recognize the hope and the change that future POTUS will bring to the White House after he is elected in November.
OBAMA/BIDEN '08 & '12 YES WE CAN!!!

I'm hoping that voters come to their senses before November. But then again, when the other credible choice is McCain there's not a lot that can be done. I have been a Democrat all of my life but will be sitting home in November. I would like to have a President that has more than ego on his resume. Did we learn nothing from G.W. Bush?

I think the "Obama is vacationing in Hawaii" picture with this article is going to be apropos for the entire Obama presidency. But the less he is seen or heard the better he looks. (He is good looking and can read a script as well as anyone in Hollywood... that's all it takes to make a liberal swoon... LOL!)

Nice picture of our next President. He is really a family man. Good job in new Jersey and Pennsylvania. Your hard work is paying now. I am with you President Obama, all the way to the White House.

Obama '08

OH LUIS – -Take a look in the mirror – -Talk of the insane How' s your president doin' ?

Wow a Person who hates America is winning over Americans?-

You must have us confused. We're the educated, latte sippers, remember? Pick a stereotype and stick with it. I have an MBA and I'm for Obama. What education level did you complete?

This is super good news.. Thanks..

And love the photo of our future President with his beautiful daughters enjoying the last of summer vacation.

Yes...WE...Can....

Yes..>WE<...SHOULD...

Obama 08

Right! McCain rocks!

And it seems Obama is picking up the so-called hardworking white vote as well. hmmmm...so that throws out the unelectable argument.

Obama is so pathetic – such a staged photo. Walking the beach with his young radicals.

These polls are meaningless until people start actually getting the facts about both candidates.

What are their tax policies? What will happen to the federal budget deficit? How much will it cost to support their health care plans and how will it impact coverage of uninsured people?

The Tax Policy Center is a non-partisan group that has done this analysis.
But you won't hear about it. It criticizes both parties. But in the end, it made it clear to me that I support the democratic plan, not the republican plan.

What about Ohio? Bush won the Presidency 2 times carrying Florida and Ohio.

very sweet...... what about the children from his first marriage. Would like to know how those children feel about this book. My ex-husband remarried and he is golden to his second family and it was not unnoticed by my children with him. He is no hero to them.

Obama Supporters do not be fooled by the media. We will show up at the polls in droves this November. Obama is going to rewrite the political map, and who cares about red/blue states.

He's doing a good job using Clinton's philosophy: "Tell a lie often enough and dumb people will begin to believe you."

Guess all that bashing doesn't work after all!

I live in PA and Obama has a bunch of campaign offices open and thousands of volunteers go door to door.

We got your back Obama...you will be the next President!

To ALLAN USA.
You asked: For people who love Obama. Tell me one thing Obama did good for America. One,please.I know it's going to take all day.

Response:
He is running for the Presidency and showing our country and the rest of the world that our leaders are not ignorant, self centered, unthoughtful and articulate

He has provided inspiration to our nation, letting us know that FEAR is NOT how we should live.

He has shown that it is ok to be different and not to be scared of people who are not like us!

He has called out the Republican Machine on their lies and deceitful policies....

He has challenge the average American to want to be educated and get facts for themselves.

He has demonstrated thoughtfulness and not the same old COWBOY, GO it ALONE approach of BUSH and MCSAME oh , I mean MCCAIN

He has shown the world that we are able to admit our mistakes and look for ways to amend and advance beyond those mistakes.

Basically, he has shown Americans that we can be proud of our Best....... He has demonstrated how our children, when educated can achieve whatever goals they set!

He will be the President of the United States.

To be honest.... McCain and Bush have done nothing but gotten our country into wars, reduced educational support to the poor, reduced healthcare, improve the profits of the wealthy and most of all made us feel hopeless and vulnerable as a nation.

BARACK OBAMA – President of the United States of America

Let's vote for the smart guy this time around!

New Jersey and Pennsylvania welcome Obama with open arms!!!!

And Obama is down in Florida and Virgina also two critical states.

McCain rocks.

Good news for Obama. Go Obama '08. CNN, I guess all of your hard work sheilding McCain is not working. Stop trying to prop McCain and go back to your fair and objective roots. Please CNN.

Looks like John may need to surge the polls

Obama 08

Bring America Back! Thanks Obama, end the right wing downward spiral.

Math lesson:

BUSH = MCCCAIN; MCCAIN = BUSH.

Why do commentars persist in the myth that PA is a tossup. When was the last time it voted Rep? Gov, Philly and Pittsurgh mayors all Dems. No significant PA GOP umless you count Ridge who lives in Washington.

Obama is actually up by more in every poll, because most of us minority supporters do not answer the phone unless we know who it is, and young folks do not even use landlines. On every poll, add 20 to make up for us minorities and young folks that are not polled.

Thank God he untucked his shirt from his shorts.

I was reconsidering my support over that.

TO Ryan-Albuquerque, NM

What is the point of your post? Obama is a nominee, not the President yet! This turmoil in Georgia should be addressed by the current administration and I bet if Obama did say anything now you would accuse him of thinking he was president already! You sound like those idiot PUMA's who criticize EVERYTHING he does. Obama needs all the vacation he can get since he will be very busy for the next 4 years.

President Obama, 2008!!!!!!!

Who cares about polls right now?

What I love is this photo – of our next president doing what fathers are meant to do, with his daughters.

The libs in this state would vote for Osama if he had a little d next to his name ,so I would hope they would vote for Obama.

The rest of the nation should know about New Jersey, go get the dvd's of the Soprano series, that is how the people here are. Ovbiously such people are lib Democrats, no republican could act that way and live with themself for it.

The reason Obama isn't up by more in the blue state of NJ is that the Democratic Governor is not very popular Nor was the last one), most voters are registered Independents, there are a lot of rich Republicans that live there ... annnnnd .. Hillary won NJ!

I will tell you i have alot of family and friends all throughout NY that are obama supporters, And i can tell you now if hillary trys to steal the nomonation from him HILLARY CAN KISS HER SENATE SEAT IN NY BYE BYE!!!!!!! and if she should happen to become the nomoniee NO VOTES FOR HER FROM MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY!!!

I dare say that the totally ludicrous comments I read from the McCain supporters, only reinforces my opinion that a great majority of older folks still cling to their racist beliefs and simply will look for any excuse, no matter how stupid it may be, for their reasons not to vote for Obama. Obama's only hope is that the younger generation goes against their past practice, and this time really shows up at the polls. Maybe one day when my generation and my father's genaration is long dead and buried, racist will be a distinct minority in our land. Unfortunatelly we are still a long ways off from that day.

Hillary supporter for McCain!!!!!!

Hillary supporter for McCain!!!!!!

Hillary supporter for McCain!!!!!!

Hillary supporter for McCain!!!!!! A true American!

Grandpy McSane and the rest of the GOP are a Joke.
They have absolutely no platform to run on this election. Hence, the reason why they try to slander Obama every other second.
If you don't believe me, then just try tuning into "FIX" (FOX) news on any given night.....

The majority voters in NJ & PA, obviously have good sense. So this poll is no surprise.

Obama's biggest challenge this election may not be against McSane and the rest of the GOP. Instead, it may be related to appeasing all of the hard core "PUMA" and Pro-Hillary pundits that will only vote for McCain out of jealousy (because Hillary didnt' win the nomination)...

Unified Democrats '08

Hey Democrat for John McCain – instead of spouting that empty repug rhetoric or sound like a shrill puma/pac chickie why don't you investigate for yourself and go to Obama's website and read the 1,000 or so pages of policies, etc that he has. He also has more 'experience' in office than shrillary he served 8 yrs as Illinois Senator and 3 as US senator besides being a Constitutional Law Scholar. Uninformed people would crack me up if you guys weren't so pathetic.

Do any of you people work or are you all collecting your welfare checks waiting for your savior to anointed King of the USA?

Welfare Recipients 4 Obama

Yes, I agree, don't get too complacent. We are 80 days away, so let's keep up the good work.

I will be at the Denver Convention to volunteer any way I can. If others are thinking about it, just do it. We need everyone's help. Then we'll see each other in WASHINGTON, D.C. in January.

Go big or go home, baby. Whooohoooooo!

Obama 08

interesting because just today another poll showed PA getting tight to 4% (pollster.com). Keep up the fairy tail CNN

Obama all the way to White House

Good good! On an unrelated note, the picture to this story is very cute. Though I wonder why CNN chose it for THIS particular story. Way to play to the family values voters. I'm all for O but as a former journalist I really would like to see a little less bias. Just saying.....

Hey CNN. Since this is so very important...did he go to the bathroom this morning? What deoderant is he using? etc.

CNN has become the Obama Cheerleading Network alongside ABC, NBC, MSNBC, and CBS.

AINT NO STOPPING US NOW....WERE ON THE MOVE

OBAMA FOR A BETTER AMERICA....

I am so tired of hearing all of this talk about "why is he not ahead by this many points, or that many points", these polls are so unreliable. The media is looking for any drama to fill their airtime. What they are leaving out is the fact that in this 21st century, more people use their cell phones, and not landlines as their primary source of communication. I can't wait to see the look on the media's face when the young people come out in droves to take the country back. This will be the year America was restored to it's standing in the world.

Barack the Vote! OBAMA '08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

woohoo,, they finally woke up and know whos really tryin to help america,, obama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where is Michelle in the vacation photo's

NJ AND PA IS CLINTON COUNTRY

NO CLINTON THEN NO OBAMA

SO HOW MANY EXTRA BLACK FOLKS DID THEY ADD TO THESE POLLS CNN? DO YOU KNOW?

I wish I could vacation in Hawaii.

McCain is running on less jobs and more wars. Why it surprises anyone that he is behind I'll never know.

America would be better off with a monkey with a Ouija board than almost any Republican.

We could care less about experience if it comes with more selling out America to foreign countries and big business. It's called corporate fascism and any of us that would like to preserve individual freedom and opportunity are going to run not walk from McCain.

I'm curious to see the polls that include the reaction to McCain's rousing, "Let's rev up the war with the Russian Empire again!!" The guy sure looked in his element there, when talking about starting another war...

I mean.. is that what America wants? Chest thumping/draw your weapons first, ask questions later? Senator McCain, exactly how much better than Putin are we trying to be? I can't believe that mentality still works these days... but, I guess we'll find out next week...

Too many people are worrying about the national poll numbers which reflect how the popular vote would go. They are saying that Obama's lead of only 5 to 6 % is not enough and that he is in trouble now. It doesent matter how he polls on the national level it matters on the state level because the electorial college decides the presidential campaign. You don't have to win the most states, you just have to win the ones that matter most. Right now that lead belongs to Obama.

That's fine but lets not get complacent. We have much work to do to ensure Barack will be president.

McCain is running his mouth off about "We are all Georgians" and now the Georgia's president is telling McCain to back up what he says (we know he can't). We don't need this single-minded warmonger near the red button.

Obama/Sebelius 2008/2012.

Raymond Duke,
Start beleiving it buddy – Idiots like you are a minority this year. Get a life!

Polls are not the answer and do not be lulled into a false sense of security. S–t happens. The Most important thing is that we (Obama Supporters) Vote! Let nothing stop you from casting your ballots!
If we start thinking our votes aren't important because he is ahead in polls, we are in danger of losing. Repugs turn out because they don't have to work. Every vote counts! I would stand in line in a hurricane to vote for Obama. I am not kidding.
Obama/Biden/ABH

I am an Obama supporter but I am not too excited with these polls.
Polls after the convention will make a lot of sense to me.

However I am happy.

OBAMA 08

Obama is going to go down in history as the Liberal Left Puppet who lost the election in a year when the Democratic Party should have won!

I can't help but believe if the Thugs hadn't stolen the Primary away from the candidate that won the popular vote, the numbers would be much higher and we would be looking forward to the end of a long Republican Whitehouse.

Such a shame!

McCain 08

Go Obama - WE NEED TO TURN THIS COUNTRY AROUND AND FAST!

The media is driving these polls down for Obama. I have never seen media so biased.

How can media (Loo dobb, Borgia, and the other white hair dude, the one who is often with Cafferty) have turned every positive of Obama into negative. given amunition to McSameOld to attack Obama, and actively seek , solicited ways and means to beat Obama, right from the primaries. You always here from these people what anyone can do to beat obama. Guests are frequently asked what they would do to beat Obama.

The fact that Obama is leading in all polls is turned into negative:
McCain is a 72 years "very old white hair dude" who spent 26 of them in Washington, elections after elections. He is used to running campaigns and therefore should be ahead in the polls.

The failures in his party together with his own do nothing 26 yrs ddin't help put him ahead in this election, but his negative campaign is not helping either. What does the media do? Blame Obama for not "being ahead enough".

This is a guy whom no one knew 10 years ago. He has brilliantly introduced himself to the american people and we adopted and now cherish the ideas he put forward.

The guy is expert in managing people and the old school has seen only fire when confronted to his high tech, people oriented managment style.

The guy has actually worked for people, with the people. The white hair dude, on the contrary, had his elections delivered by room service all expense paid by wife n# 2, after he calously ditched the handicaped 1st wife.

How can you compare archaic McBush with the charismatic, brilliant and futuristic Obama? He has done what goliath alone couldn't do: Knock down Major League Dems power players and now is on his way to knocking down the Dynosaure Republican Quarter back in the major league

For people who love Obama. Tell me one thing Obama did good for America. One,please.I know it's going to take all day.

I do not believe the polls, any polls. It's just a motivational tool for the other party to campaign harder. No matter what, Barrack Obama will win.

People in PA are too smart to fall for McCain's negative ads. We are also values voters and don't believe a career adulterer deserves to hold the office.

Georgians are getting killed and Obama is in Hawaii kicking back

yeah...VERY PRESIDENTIAL you HACK!!!!

Who is running the US military? Seems like the leadre of Georgia!

John McCain's close friend, and fellow Georgian told his follow citizens (I guess that would include all American citizens in McCain's world) "that Georgian ports and airports will be taken under the control of the US defense.."

Give it up Hillary supporters. There will be approximately 13 percent of Democrats voting for McCain which will be offset by 13 percent of Republicans voting for Barack. Save your 80 million votes for 2012 so that you guys can become two time losers once Obama wins reelection.

Change 08

All the people who dare CNN to post their comments (thinking that it will get their comments posted) are just plain silly. The moderator must get a real kick out of it. I sure do.

By the way cnn you are the only media outlet that always has Obama ahead all the time. You must be trying to match PMSNBC in your bias for Obama. Of course you are. It is obvious by the 9000 times you played "BLACK IN AMERICA" over and over.

The correct polls will show in November. You have over 80 days to count on your savior Obamites!

anderson August 13th, 2008 1:38 pm ET
Haha I am happy to see Obama's poll number slipping. Can't wait to see him lose. Go Hillary 2012!
-------------–

in 2015 educated, global minded people will stand up and defeat Hillary again. The next important race for her to lose is her senate seat. Rise voters of New York. Rise and Defeat Hillary!

Good news!

Nothing to get complacent about. We need to work very hard from now until Nov 4th, when we hope to see the TV screens flashing

BARRACK OBAMA the 44th President of United States of America

Barrack the Vote!!!!

If McWar is going to easily win the election as the repugs, PUMA's and the "shrill for Hill" say, why can't he close the deal?

why dont the MSM ask if McCain is presumptious? We are all Georgians? wow Obama says he is a citizen of the world and the MSN says he is arrogant but McCain is a Foreign policy expert. So sad CNN for you to be bias. Where is your article asking if McCain is being arrogant. yea I know that aint gonna happen.

The man can't even take a vacation without the media stalking him every minute. I feel sorry for him and his family. Why doesn't the media follow McCant around like this? Why is the media so biased when it comes to reporting on McCant? I actually heard a CNN reporter yesterday reporting on what kind of meals Obama has had on vacation??? OMG! This sick obession with Obama is ridiculous and they wonder why they call him a celebrity, look how the media treats him!! I wonder when they'll start paying attention to McCant and his obession with War and his ignorance about the economy and every other issue important to america.

Leave Obama alone! Let the man and his family breath!!!

McOLD should just quit. It's funny to watch the "news" pretend there is a "race" for the White House.

GOP lost when is nominated a someone they have a history of hating. Talk about STUPID.

LOL

Please give me a break. Alaska going democrat. You must be one of them mindless airheads.

NEWS FLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A recent poll by a service about as reliable as the Communist News Network (aka Obama News Network) reported 10 out of 10 Idiots will support Obama!

Unconfirmed reports of prisoners being given the right to vote (for Obama) may have skewed the numbers (too low).

Vote McCain or join the insane.....

SENATOR OBAMA, BEST PERSON FOR AN AMERICAN PRESIDENT-SINCE JOHN F. KENNEDY! ! !

Looking good OB

I love these polls that cnn likes to quote. Now i am sure that it is true if you went to liberal Philadephia on the ritz side or you went to the ghetto you could get that skew. I say wait until november to see if that holds up. I don't think so. I beleive these people are like the people from Missouri. I bet you a dollar to a do-nut hole that missouri goes republican. They may not like John McCain but they will vote for him. Voting for Obama would be like "cutting your nose off to spite your face".

Any lead is no lead at all! Go Obama!

How many times is CNN going to change the Picture of OBAMA?

Frankly, I think that Obama should be way ahead (more than 15 points) in a blue state like NJ. People still are doubtful about his capacity to be President. I still do not know why people are so attracted to him-what has he done for the American people? All that I know is that he is vacationing all the time!
His whole candidacy is based on a speech he gave against the Iraq war-that's it!

Ex-Republican for Obama: You're on the money, mate.

Young people for Senator Obama it's time to get involved and energized!

Everyone else for Senator Obama do the same.

Allez les Blue States!

CNN always likes to give such poll news to show that Obama is up by 8-10 points. Obama is vacationing in Hawaii. How come the polls went up. Obama is a fraud. People from PA & NJ should know what they want to elect as our president. What is Obama? What experience does he have? What bipartisanship he has? What did he accomplish? Can anybody including CNN tell me. People are getting carried away with Barack's rhetoric and big mouth. Empty vessel makes lot of noise. Barack Go home.

Haha I am happy to see Obama's poll number slipping. Can't wait to see him lose. Go Hillary 2012!!

Who cares.......he is still a Chicago Politican no matter where he is!

Kepp pushin' Barack!!

Puss Limpball just smeared American swimmer Michael Phelps on his comedy show, calling him "an ugly American" because he eats too much. He wondered why he is so big compared to the "chicom" female gymnasts. He reasons that if they can win gold medals and still be so small (and eat less), Phelps should be able to do the same.

Somebody give Puss a gordito and a couple of Oxys...maybe he'll shut up.

Go Obama....and enjoy your vacation with your family and try to forget about the Repugnants!

all you would expect from regressive-socialists states.

Nothing to get excited about at this stage but common sense says Obama's lead in almost all states including those deemed to be red will steadily increase.

The only way McCain has a chance is if they keep him out of the public's eye and away from TV cameras. They should just keep slandering Obama whether true or not it's their only chance.

Great news for the Obama team; I think you will soon hear similar results from other states. GO OBAMA!

I'm cautiously optimistic also. Yeah, it would be nice if the numbers were little more for Obama but I think in the end both PA and NJ will see that more of the same will not help any of us.
I'm hoping that Obama is conserving his energy for a blitz in Sept and Oct. I think that the debates will be telling. McCain is already telling the media that he does not speak as well as Obama.

Luis, unless you have something constructive to say, why not just go over to Fox's boards. You sure are not making any kind of case for McCain.

Matthew, Philadelphia, PA – the real news is why the new guy on the block is continuously beating the so called 'experienced' guy who has been around forever? John McWar has not lead once in any poll i've seen, that to me and most people is news.

OBAMA / HAGEL 2008

CNN. Post this one!<

Its strange how everybody hereis blaming CNN and other MSM. McOld fans say CNN is Obama's network and Barack's fans says cnn is given McDrill a free ride with all his mistakes !
Looks like this time all the karlrovians tactics won't work as easyly. You cant fool people 3 times in a row !
And to all die-hard republicans-dressed-in-Hillary fans, you'll experience a major desillusion in november. Time to join the ship!

The Democratic Party NEEDS a MAJOR! OVERHAUL!. Forget about 2008 (Barack's gonna come out short, i.e no 270 EV for him in Nov.) or 2012 (The electoral college's gonna change because of the 2010 Census). So start thinking about 2016. You got 8 yrs. You've! been! warned!.

McCain's campaign is in trouble and if it weren't for the news media, especially his campaign staff at Fox and ABC, this thing wouldn't even be close. But folks are seeing the desperation of the Republicans coming out.

Obama 08/12!!

Yes, Americans voting for Obama see the truth. Those who vote McCain...well voting for someone who is yet to tell the people what he is doing for America tells you a lot or better yet a little.

Oh yes, the Panamanian is fixated on Russia.

THIS IS GREAT NEWS! SENATOR OBAMA NEEDS TO WIN IN ALL STATES. . . ONLY WAY WE CAN RECLAIM AMERICA

Yea!!! This is wonderful news.

Here we go with the bias again. Among LIKELY voters Obama is leading by just 5 points in PA. That's down 1 point from the prevous poll. Why did you decide to show the poll from the registered voters and not the poll from the likely voters like realclearpolitics has doen? WHEN WILL YOU STOP YOUR BIAS CNN????

mccain is wasting money in pa

anyomous,

Keep trying you. We recognize your stupidity!

No surpise there wait until after the convention Obama lead will go up to 10 to 15 pts. Party is over for republicans it will take years for republicans to recover if ever.

Eat his dust MCLame!

I'd like to know who they are polling. I live in PA and all you see is McCain and Ron Paul signs. (They haven't taken the Paul signs down yet)

while i am pro obama, im sick of these polls, why are we paying attention to these polls when the elections is months away

if these polls came out like 3 weeks before the election, then id be excited, until then, im going to ignore the media trying to make a big news story out of these polls (one week he's down, and the pundits declare Obama dead, the next week he's up, and its a different story, im sick of these superficial media reports!!!)

BE RESPONSIBLE AND REPORT THE NEWS FAIRLY, DON'T MAKE THE NEWS

LET'S GO OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DEMOCRATS IN 08!!!!!!!!!

Democratic White House coming soon.

Read the article about Clinton's campaign in The Atlantic Monthly...that woman will NEVER be picked for VP.

As Dylan once noted, for McSame, "It's a Hard Rain Is Gonna Fall!"

The repubs are so Gorgians why aren't they fly to Gorgia yet?

The hostilities will cease when peace has been restored.

Im going to cry and tell Rush,my fearful leader about this,he always makes me feel secure.

this ASouth NJ CherryStrawbwerry is proud to be an Obamaniac.

"I'm a Obamananiac Obamaniac on the floor...and Is'm dancing like I've never danced before"

What person in their right mind would take the 'experienced' war monger who voted 95% in favor of bush's policies over the guy with BRILLIANT judgement? BTW mccain is supporting Bush's request to rescind the edangered species list. There goes mccain's claim that he is an environmentalist.

The truth is Obama is widely favored by the voters.

Attack ads won't stop anyone but the source of those ads: John "Bomb Them All" McCain.

I'd like to know who they are polling. I live in PA and all you see is McCain and Ron Paul signs.

Oh, please. I'm an Obama supporter, but this is hardly worth the energy of whoever wrote it. Who didn't think Obama was going to take New Jersey, and likely Pennsylvania?

Why don't you mention that the most recent polls show Obama is ahead in the Republican state of Alaska, and Pollster has moved Alaska into the "toss-up" category? Now THAT'S news.

I'm sure he can get lots of help from Oprah

LETS SEE THOSE DEBATES AND WATCH HIS LEAD GET BIGGER. MCCAIN IS NO MATCH FOR OBAMA......

OBAMA.......08

He looks pretty darn good for a 47 year old man- no fat on him whatsoever.

Obama Ba-rocks my world.

Oh well, if Obama is elected we only have to listen to him for 4 years 8 at the most let the poor fellow try to be a leader.

I pray that Obama becomes the next President of the United States.

America will be at war withing a year if McSurge is ever elected. He's now playing the part of a puppet for the President of Georgia by buying into his lies after he antagonized the Russians. And now the MORON in the White House is about to send aid in by air.

Georgia wants the US to get into their mess. MISERY LOVES COMPANY. I bet BUSH has not given thoughts to an AMERICAN SUPPLE PLANLE BEING SHOT OUT OF THE SKY OVER GEORGIA by the Georgians, and the Georgian blaming it on the RUSSIANS. Just like the Georgian President claiming the Russian DROPPING BOMB WITH F AMERICA & F NATO written on them.

TRUTH IS ALWAYS THE FIRST CASUALTY OF EVER WAR. WE BETTER BE CAREFUL.

Let the French and the European Union lead the way to a cease fire.

Obama know this and it;s the reason why he's being careful with his words.

Well, it's easy to be ahead in many polls when the media asks such tough questions as: "What's your favorite ice cream flavor?" How about some questions about how Obama's policies will destroy the American economy (http://www.colony14.net)?

Ahh, to be a kool-aid drinking lib. It must be nice to be oblivious to the world.

The situation with the kidnappings in mexico, please help! I haven't heard the campaigns talk about it, please please address this. I'm begging you guys if anyone take's notice please have Mr. Obama, or any politician for that matter address it. Please!

"a change is a comin' "

Hillary for president.

I'm tired of my comments not getting posted. Who does the moderating? Geez. Post an intelligent comment once in a while.

My only comment on NJ's voting record is: what could they possibly have been thinking in 1988??!!! The boarder between us and Dumbf**kistan certainly has been a fluid one over the years.

This is great news. And shows that a state by state focus is more important than a national focus for winning.

Welcome Penn State from a Californian Obama supporter. Great Obama bumper stickers on cafepress.com

He's going to win. No weapon formed against him...Not McCain, Repugs smears, or phony Clinton groups that are run by Repugs (PUMA, Denver Group) will stop us.

Yes We Can 08

nice
good job obama

Great news. Also, McCain will lose Ohio because of the DHL job losses. McCain pushed hard for having foreign-owned DHL corporation buy out an American company, Airborn Express, in Wilmington, OH. 5 years later, DHL is closing the Wilmington business and putting 8,000 workers out of a job. This is how McCain "supports" American companies. If you vote for McCain, this is just the tip of the iceburg.

McCain + America = 3rd world country.

The trend is, on most important issues, McCain makes a firm stand, and Obama gradually catches up, be it Georgia, Offshore drilling, condition based withdrawal from Iraq, Surveillance vote and on many other issues.

Does Obama have a firm foot any issue at all, except his adamant call to unduly tax successful enterprises?

Is this a surprise? Most pundits have been guessing that NJ leans towards Obama at this point. PA is still a toss up state. It is becoming more clear that McCain is going to have to do something to win PA.

Polls, polls, polls which one favors McWar?!

GREAT NEWS, IT JUST KEEP GETTING BETTER FOR OBAMA.....

Obama08

Mccain Is Going Down Hard!

Go Obama. I'm so tired of this McCain and Hillary thread filled with hate. Hillary supporters remember this" Lack of contentment breeds resentment" This what we are seeing flooded in almost every thread.

Obama '08 and 12

Obama 08!!!!!!

what president is in 1988

This Is Great News! Im Glad To See Mccain Is Down! People Are Starting To See Mccain For The Clown He Is! . . . . . Landslide . . . Obama!

Keep on wasting money in Pa and then going over to TAKE money in NJ while losing that stat also, you would think elmer would be spending some money in Fla, which at the present time, he doesnt think he has too. But wake up on Nov 5 and all the repugs will say..."what happened in FLA"? how could he have lost that state....its called ground game and GOTV which Obama team is light yrs ahead of the Mclame camp, Psst: Johhnie ole boy, er, if you lose Fla, you can plan the new pool and hot tub in your back yard!

YES WE CAN PA !!!!!!! I live in pa and I will tell you now THIS IS OBAMAS STATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama is the Future Mccain is the Past Choose your Future. I Guess all Them attack ads didn't work for Old Mccain Huh Obama 08

Obama will win NJ. voter registration for democrats is up by 3% in NJ we all are working hard in NJ hosting many events every week to ensure an Obama victory.

I will be cautiously optimistic. Sen. McCain's obsession with Sen. Obama must be paying off. Don’t be surprised if he is asked what he envisages for America’s future and his answer is: OBAMA!!!

THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!! GO OBAMA.....

Sounds good to me! Let's keep it that way!

Obamanation '08

YES WE CAN!

And this is News How??? .. These States are Blue States ... CNN, Polls about Swing States would be more pertinent . . than this Blue & red States

I LOVE THE VOTERS OF NEW JERSEY AND PENNSYLVANNIA. THAT'S JUST TO SHOW THAT VOTERS IN BOTH STATES ARE READING AND FOLLOWING THE ISSUES BETWEEN BOTH CANDIDATES.

THANK YOU ALL. I CANNOT TAKE ANOTHER 4 YEARS OF REPUBLICAN PRESIDENCY!!

DEMOCRATE ALL THE WAY!

These polls are as accurate as those which had Hillary Clinton losing by 3 then 24 hours later she won the state after she gave the reasons why she was running along with a little emotion.

This is nothing more than CNN and the media outlets pushing their aspirations on the rest of us.

How will the mainstream media explain an Obama loss ? Will it be the "voters in the privacy of the booth" respond differently than when polled about their preferences ?

Dare you to print it.

So let me get this right – he goes on vacation and McCain has a whole week to slander him, lie about his policies and flip/flop with immunity.

This proves two things: One, the studies that show Obama receives more press but it is mostly more negative press than positive press and without all the negative press people can actually objectively consider his positions; and

Two, McCain's negative attacks only invite people to take a closer look at Obama's policies to see if what McCain is saying is actually true, as a result Americans are finding out McCain is a liar and deceiver.

End result – Obama's ratings increase.

hey will win them all

Interesting!

granpa must be real pleased by his bitter comments since he has been roaming PA lately. job welldone Mcbush.

Great ! Let's beat that old fool McSame once and for all. Or send him to Georgia !

It's good to see this kind of news. But I urge all Obama supporters to NOT get complacent based on Poll numbers.

It is a hard cold fact that Obama is DEPENDING on his young voters to turn out in force come November. We have ended up with Republican presidents many times due to one undeniable factor: They tend to be more active come voting day then do the demographically younger Democratic party.

If Obama is to win, then the YOUNG must hit the polls in November. Do not take it for granted that we have this in the bag. Like it or not, there is a sizable older population that is simply racist and/or religious heretics that will not vote for Obama. That means YOU have to if you support him.

Yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Vote McCain or join the insane................

If Obama cannot win in New Jersey, he is toast. Frankly, I can't understand why he isn't up by at least 20 points in New Jersey. Democrat governor, two Democrat senators, legislature controlled by Democrats, Newark, Camden, Jersey City, etc.

No surprise here. McBush has had this week in the spotlight and he just puts his foot in his mouth trying to look presidential. Keep it up McBush, you're goin' down.

The disgruntled Northeast will have a lot to say about "same ol' same ol'". My family in Pennsylvania have all done a complete about face regarding McCain and his competency.

Johnny boy's ship is sinking fast.

What's news here? Any Democrat should be winning these two states. The bigger story is that Obama is leading by only 10 in NJ. It should be 15+ at this point.

Obama is up in Ohio as well!!!!

Go Obama! YES WE CAN! and YES WE WILL!

Obama/Clinton 2008
