Indiana as a swing state

Filed in: , ,

Last night we were watching Anderson Cooper's 360 and the identified Indiana as one of the five states they're watching as "battleground" states. No kidding -- we were not red, but "pink" on their chart.

Blue Indiana notes that a new Star poll coming out will show Obama on top, and sure enough -- WTHR and Star Polling shows Obama leads McCain in Indiana by 47% to 44%.

Given the massive number of Obama signs and bumperstickers around town for the past several months, we've been expressing wonderment at the disparity between polls and visual evidence. I chalked it up to urban living, but I wonder if there's not just a bit more to it.

But given that McCain has declared war on Spain (!?!) in the past couple days (The Rain In Spain Mainly Falling on McCain! Ha!) -- hey, maybe Indiana is just a big fan of bullfighting.
