Ain't no way McCain is beating Obama in Mass.

Well, yeah, if I saw a poll that showed Hillary beating Romney in Alabama, I'd just figure the poll wasn't measuring anything real. Same here.

As I posted elsewhere, McCain does seem to do well on GE matchups, compared to his primary polling data. One conclusion must be that McCain does well with people who do not see them themselves heavily aligned with the primary process, i.e. independents.

It seems odd to me that after viewing all of these state-by-state polls, that the McCain campaign is doing so poorly.
On paper, at least, he appears to be the best possible challenger to Clinton or Obama in a number of states, yet the public perception is that he is a dying candidate.
