That's a bold strategy, Cotton: Obama campaign appears to have spotted Mitt Romney the state of Indiana

David "Red Diaper Baby" Axelrod hardest hit:

Four years ago, President Obama became the first Democrat since 1964 to win Indiana. He looks unlikely to repeat that feat.

A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in the state finds challenger Mitt Romney picking up 51% of the vote while the president earns just 35%. Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate, and 11% are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

The Indiana survey of 400 Likely Voters was conducted July 31-August 1, 2012 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 5 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC.

Aside from Rasmussen, I don't trust any of these polls that show Obama leading Romney.

My suspicion is that we will see the return of "The Bradley Effect" come November, as the most racially divisive president and attorney general in history are pink-slipped.
