Two Polls; Two Colorados?

Two polls today released by Rasmussen shows two interesting pictures regarding Colorado.

The first is in regards to the Presidential race.

This shows McCain beating Clinton 49%-35%, but Obama beating McCain 46%-39%.  This seems to show a couple things-Clinton and McCain, the overwhelmingly defeated candidates in our straw polls have shallow support in our state.  But no one tops Hillary unpopularity.

The second poll is in regards to the Senate race, which again shows Schaffer ahead.

44%-43% for Schaffer.  These numbers are unchanged since the last poll regarding our Senate race.  This is good news for Schaffer-despite the less than amazing fund raising totals the race is still as close as all the commentators say it will be.  Hopefully (as a Republican) this will help Schaffer’s fund raising efforts-becaue Udall’s money could make a huge difference in a close race.

In any case, these two polls show that Colorado is truely a battleground state….so be ready to avoid the local channels (at least during the comercial breaks)!
