[via Bush’s internal polling paints dire picture for him]
GOP officials who talked to Bush-Cheney campaign leaders said the leaders have grown more worried about Ohio, Florida and other key states where Bush lacks a lead with just 10 days until the election. A poll by Ohio University’s Scripps Survey Research Center, completed Thursday night, found Kerry leading 49 percent to 43 percent among registered voters, with a margin of error of five percentage points […]
The Republican official said polling for Bush showed him in a weaker position than some published polls have indicated, both nationally and in battlegrounds. In many of the key states, the official said, Bush is below 50 percent, and he is ahead or behind within the margin of sampling error — a statistical tie.
“There’s just no place where they’re polling outside the margin of error so they can say, ‘We have this state,’” the official said. “And they know that an incumbent needs to be outside the margin of error.”

And this morning we heard that Arkansas might be in play as well. I have not trusted polls this election season at all, and I am not planning on starting 8 days before the election. Having said that, if this is true, good for the Senator!
