A Rasmussen poll (June 18) showed McCain leading by 8 percentage points, 47 percent to 39 percent. But a Quinnipiac poll done on June 16 showed the opposite, Obama with 47 percent, McCain with 43 percent.
McCain and Obama were just down here in South Florida speaking to the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials. McCain got boo'ed by a couple of anti war protesters. The conventional wisdom is that McCain will take Florida, but Obama dominates over el viejo among Hispanic voters. Obama's spending a lot of money down here in tv ads. Florida could become verry interesting.

Antiwar protestors follow everyone around, does it make a difference...probably not.
True. But these incidents make it to the local news reports. With the ad money Obama is pumping in here it's pretty good icing.
McCain flip flopped with the off shore oil drilling issue with his buddy Charlie Crist and I'm just waiting to see how that plays out down here.
Wouldn't you love to see an ad of a beautiful (not rainy) Florida day, at the beach with kids playing in the water (no Jaws). And then a quick quote of McCain's on offshore drilling, followed up by that same beach scene with massive drilling platforms a mile out in the water?
Honestly, I've no idea how far out such platforms would be, in reality, but it'd be a powerful image.
"Freedom" that is so funny and effective.
That's interesting. It's nice to hear where the money is going and the strategies. I7m a long way from Florida. (Japan)
