A new poll of registered voters in Cook County, Illinois has Obama leading by only 7 percent, 49 to 36.
What does this tell us? A new poll of registered voters in Cook County, Illinois, has Obama leading by only 7 percent, 49 to 36.
Cook County is where Chicago is located, and is Obama’s home base.
No one expects Obama to lose Illinois. Regardless of how people vote, the corrupt Democratic Party machine in Chicago will produce the necessary votes to put him over the top, even if it has to make them up. However, this poll tells us just how weak Obama is politically, which means that dead Democratic voters in Chicago are not going to be enough to save him nationwide come November.

Being that this is a poll of “Registered” voters, a poll of “Likely” voters would probably be even LESS favorable to Obama. This indeed spells trouble – in all likelihood, he will still win IL, but every state he previously regarded as “safe” that he now has to devote resources to, in order to keep in his column, dilutes the time & money needed for other ciritcial states. Do we see a pattern emerging? A crumbling campaign in disarray, sinking poll numbers, his strongest “base” voters not particularly energized, gaffes on both his & Biden’s parts. Six months ago, I doubt they ever thought this is where they’d be at this point…
