Iowa went for Gore in 2000 and then for bush in 2004. This is a nice lead for Senator Obama http://tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/06/poll_obama_leads_by_seven_in_i.phpA new Rasmussen poll of Iowa confirms that Barack Obama is enjoying a post-primary bounce across the country, leading John McCain 45%-38%, a solid margin with the poll's ±4% margin of error.
Iowa is a crucial battleground state that voted for Al Gore in 2000, but then narrowly switched to George W. Bush in 2004. A month ago, Obama led here by only 44%-42% in Rasmussen's polling.
His job now, of course, is to sustain his post-primary bounce, which is historically a tough job to perform.
