New Rasmussen poll for the Presidential shows McCain widening his lead in Mississippi

Rasmussen also came out with this poll today. I am unable to pull the crosstabs, because it is a pay service. John McCain nearly doubled his lead from the last two polls. I personally believe that the misinformation out there about drilling is hurting Obama in Mississippi. Unfortunately most Mississippians erroneously believe the canard that increased offshore drilling will lower their gas prices. The Republicans have even admitted this is not true when pressed. John McCain said it would have "psychological benefits." The GOP, not known for dealing in facts, are more than happy to play the drilling card even when they too know it is a LIE.

Rasmussen poll:

John McCain -- 52%
Barack Obama - 41%
MoE 4%
