Arizona, the Battleground State

Things are looking tight in Arizona, John McCain's home state. Arizona Republic reports:

Sen. John McCain's once-comfortable lead in Arizona has all but evaporated, according to a new poll that has the underdog Republican presidential candidate struggling in his own backyard.

With less than a week until Election Day, McCain is leading his Democratic rival, Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, by 2 points, 46 to 44, down from a 7-point lead a month ago and a double-digit lead this summer, according to a poll from Arizona State University.

Factor in the 3-percentage point margin of error, and a race that was once a nearly sure thing for McCain is now a toss-up, pollsters say.

They reap what they sow? Run that new Obama ad in Arizona day and night. We might be surprised how much it will hit at home with Americans tired of the failed Reagan Revolution.

I have heard that Obama doesn't have enough experience to lead our nation. What is George Bush's excuse? I've never heard anyone comment on this subject.
Thanks
