A huge increase in Democratic voter registrations shows that Florida could end up swinging blue this year. Let the Republicans keep hammering away at offshore drilling, and this possibility will become a certainty.
Are polls off due to the increased popularity in people having cell phones only? This is interesting, and the younger generation seem more into the cell-phone only way of living now.
