Is Kentucky in play for Obama?

One of U.S. Sen. Barack Obama's (D-Ill.) top advisors suggests the Bluegrass State may be competitive:

And Obama is weighing broadening a map that already appears big and red into four more states. A top adviser, former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, said Obama is considering expanding his active campaign back into North Dakota and Georgia, from which he’d shifted resources, and into the Appalachian heartland of West Virginia and Kentucky.

“Those states are much more in play than they were a week ago,” Daschle said. 

The latest Rasmussen poll from Sept. 30 showed U.S. Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) with a sizeable 52 to 42 percent lead.

Voices
When many voices cry out;
Let them not be forgotten.
If you see the writing on the wall;
Let them not be forgotten.
You that hears and says nothing;
Let them not be forgotten.
Less you miss the teachings of the future.
Let them not be forgotten. 01/02/2006
