Survey USA Poll: Obama Leads McCain In Pa.
Source: KDKA

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) ― If the presidential election were held today, Sen. Barack Obama would have a significant lead over Sen. John McCain in Pennsylvania, according to the results of the latest Survey USA poll conducted for KDKA-TV.

Obama has doubled his lead in Pennsylvania over McCain since the most recent poll was taken in September.

It's not that Obama is sweeping the state – it's that his strength in the eastern part of Pennsylvania is overwhelming everywhere else.

Across the state, Obama now has a 15 point lead over McCain with 55 percent for Obama and 40 percent for McCain with the rest undecided or voting for someone else.

This lead for Obama is eight points higher than it was in September.

Eastern PA here....

In my neck of the woods, there are many McCain signs as well but you see more Obama signs. I even had 4 neighbors take down their McCain signs and replaced them with Obama signs. I was told that the way McCain and Palin keep lying as though most Republicans are stupid and will believe every word that comes out of their campaign was insulting to their intelligence and they're sick and tired of the BS.

Glad they saw through the smokescreen and I promptly welcomed them on board the Obama for Change movement :)

4. OK so PA and MI are now rock solid for Obama.
Getting close to 270 EV's in the bag, and the trend is strong to Obama.

This election is over.

7. Don't count your chickens.....
... until they all hatch :)

But I feel like this time, we may well win this election as there is no way in hell they can steal this one from We the People!

8. Oh, hell no!
We still have a month - an eternity in politics.

Swift boating will occur, you betcha. I'll be happy with those poll numbers on November 4th. Until then, I'm scared as hell.
