SurveyUSA Poll: Things Are Looking Good For McCain-Palin in North Carolina

Very, very good:
RALEIGH (WTVD) -- In an election for President of the United States in North Carolina Tuesday, Republican John McCain suddenly and breathtakingly surges to a 20-point win over Democrat Barack Obama, 58% to 38%, according to this latest exclusive SurveyUSA election poll conducted for ABC11-WTVD.

But wait, there's more:
McCain has gained ground in every demographic group. Among men, McCain led by 9 last month, 27 today. Among women, Obama led by 2 last month, trails by 12 today. McCain holds 9 of 10 Republican voters; Obama holds 3 of 4 Democratic voters; independents, who were split last month, break today crisply for McCain, where, in the blink of an eye, he is up by 25. (emphasis mine)

And all this despite Obama's commercials getting play in the Tar Heel State.

One has to wonder how big that McCain lead would be right now were Obama not treating North Carolina like he actually has a shot of winning here. Thirty points? Forty points, even?

Whatever the case, I'm sure I can speak for a lot of McCain-Palin supporters across North Carolina when I say: Senator Obama, PLEASE keep wasting your resources here!

The one downside is that all this good news might allow some of us to become complacent between now and election day. Don't do it! We have to continue the fight until every vote in North Carolina is counted!

In the words of John McCain:

Fight with me. Fight with me.

Fight for what's right for our country. Fight for the ideals and character of a free people.

Fight for our children's future. Fight for justice and opportunity for all.

Stand up to defend our country from its enemies. Stand up for each other, for beautiful, blessed, bountiful America.

Stand up, stand up, stand up, and fight.

Nothing is inevitable here. We're Americans, and we never give up.

We never quit.

We never hide from history. We make history.

Thank you, and God bless you, and God bless America.
