What a huge problem!

Glenn Thrush identifies several problems for Sen. Obama:
Obama also hasn’t pulled away in other Democrat-friendly neighboring states, watching leads in Wisconsin and Minnesota erode over the last month.
Note: The last Rasmussen poll had Obama +13 in Minnesota (John Kerry won it by 3) and +7 in Wisconsin (Kerry by <1). This is very troubling.
A growing number of Democratic strategists worry that some swing state voters may opt for McCain if the economy veers from merely awful to downright terrifying.
In other words, the "swing voter" must have a thought process like this: The last Republican President was so terrifyingly bad, we can only trust another Republican President to right it!
