South Dakota Calling

Marc Ambinder reports on a poll showing Obama trailing by five points in South Dakota, a state that Bush carried by 21 points!

The poll oversampled Republicans by two points and found that 45% of its sample considered themselves conservative...

Also: Democrats are almost tied in early/absentee vote ballot returns; Republicans had a huge edge in 2004.

Besides the national message -- GWB has a net negative warm/cool rating -- Democrats are touting Obama's support for the last major farm bill and for ethanol subsidies. McCain opposed both.
