Two days ago, I wrote of the ever closing race. At the time, at the start of Obama's bus tour around the state, Hillary's lead had closed from 15-20 pts to 5-12. Though not close enough, it was a start.
Well, what a difference a few million dollars in TV ads, a six day bus tour, and bowling and beer will do.
In two polls out in the last 24hrs, Obama now trails by 2 in the American Research poll (which has him only getting 55% of the Black vote?) and actually LEADING by two in the PPP poll. Now, these have been two of the most accurate polls out there.
This is just dreadful news for Hillary. She better hope that, over the next 2 1/2 weeks, the numbers don't continue like this. If her margins are under five points, she will limp on, as if she's not limping already. If she were to lose PA, I repeat, this race is OVER.
Obama's problem...19 days is a long time....
