Strategic Vision is out with a new poll showing McCain a poor 3rd place in Pennsylvania (see question 11.) He is not doing much better in Michigan where he is also tied for 3rd. He holds the same slot in Ohio. There they break out the results by sex. Looking at men he stays in third place because they all go for Thompson. With women McCain is in second place because they go for Rudy and take a pass on Fred.

Espresso Pundit hits the nail on the head:

“He was designed for a constituency that doesn’t exist.  He’s a pro-life, hawk war hero who opposed Bush’s tax cuts, supports stem cell research and amnesty.  He supports legislation defining marriage as one man and one women at the state level…but opposes it at the federal level.  He’s with Bush on Iraq, Kennedy on immigration, Lieberman on guns, Feingold on campaign finance and the gang of 14 on Judicial Nominations.”
