The governor's race is VERY tight

For a long time, we had a decent advantage. But the latest poll from Insider Advantage is a tie, and polls in general are tighter. I'm suddenly seeing Dixon commercials after what seemed to be none for months.

I'm sure everyone reading this has/will vote. But please stay in contact with like minded people who may be iffy about actually getting to the polls. Offer a ride, give a reminder on election day.

(Detroit News/WDIV-TV poll) showing the governor expanding her lead. This was reported on Democratic Underground. Which poll am I suppose to believe?

Look more towards what the campaigns are doing and where they are spending. President Obama was here this past weekend, which I was curious about considering polling was showing a consistent lead for us. His visit tells me that internal polling was showing things tighter then what public polling was showing.
