State by state, Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill). is showing signs of breaking open a presidential race that looked deadlocked through much of September.These polls are the reason behind McSame chickening out of the debates, pure and simple. He's afraid. He's losing. He can see it slipping through his fingers when he was basically tied.
A new wave of polls released Wednesday showed decisive leads for Obama in the critical states of Colorado, Michigan and Pennsylvania.
That follows noticeable progress in polls in Virginia, which had looked safe for Sen. John McCain, and Florida, which had looked promising for McCain.
This is the first time that one of the candidates has dominated state polls in the most closely contested battlegrounds.
Republican strategist Karl Rove had predicted this tectonic shift, writing at Rove.com earlier this week: "[I]f the movement toward Obama in national polls continue to percolate down to the states, we could see an Obama lead later this week."
He sees the Obama wave coming, so he's calling a time out. Can we afford that kind of behaviour in a President?
