(Poll) Obama Squeaks Ahead in Florida

Obama pulls ahead by 1 point in the latest Rasmussen poll for the State of Florida.

Women: 50% to 43% Obama
Men: 47% to 41% McCain

I'm not a subscriber to Rasmussen Reports so I can't get more detailed crosstabs, but I've heard people say that, like Ohio, the crosstabs in this poll are a little screwy.  

Florida is going to be a challenge for Obama but the state seems to be (slowly) coming around for him.  His opposition to offshore drilling may be helping him here.  Robbing McCain of either Ohio or Florida makes winning for McCain nearly impossible.  This poll also provides some psychological relief for Obama fans whos hearts sank at the sight of the last Ohio poll ;)
