Apparently, it's young professional black men that singlehandedly gave Obama the nomination.

"That could well override the political advantages that some other supporters have been promoting, notably her fellow New York Democrats in Congress: That Sen. Clinton could help Sen. Obama win the support of women, blue-collar workers, seniors and white men – all groups that the Illinois senator had trouble with during their nomination race."

If Missouri, home of Branson, is any indication, apparently not.

Rasmussen. 6/3. Likely voters. MoE 4% (5/6 results)

McCain (R) 42 (47)
Obama (D) 43 (41)

That's a seven-point swing as people decide that perhaps McCain deserves more scrutiny. And this number is 16-points better than Obama's nadir in March in the midst of the Wright freak-out. In a 3/24 poll, McCain led Obama 53-38.

Thats the second poll in a week or so that has them even in my birth state (previous being Survey USA). St. Louis and KC better have huge turnout for Obama to pull it out.
