Bluer than Illinois
By Wally Edgevt.Buzz makes an interesting observation about the presidential campaign.
How blue is Vermont when it comes to presidential politics?
This blue: Barack Obama is winning this state by a bigger margin in the latest Rasmussen Reports poll than he is in his home state of Illinois.
The RR poll out late Thursday had Obama-Biden with 60 percent support, compared to 36 percent for McCain-Palin. An RR poll out today had Obama ahead of McCain in the Land of Lincoln, 56%-40%.
