New Poll Shows Obama Leads In Florida, Ohio & Pennsylvania!

So people have been chattering that without Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio, no Democrat can win the presidency. This was the big argument for Hillary Clinton. Her supporters said that Senator Obama could never carry the swing states, yet today comes the news of the Quinnipiac University Swing State polls. These new figures show Obama ahead of McCain in all three states.

• Florida: Obama edges McCain 47 - 43 percent;
• Ohio: Obama tops McCain 48 - 42 percent;
• Pennsylvania: Obama leads McCain 52 - 40 percent.

A breakdown of the numbers in the three states shows Obama leading McCain 10 to 23 percentage points among women. Obama trails among white Florida and Ohio voters, but gets more than 90 percent of black voters in each state. More importantly he has double-digit leads among young voters in each state.
