Five-point drop from earlier this week for Obama.

1. We'll win there no matter what.

2. Expected, but not so terrible

I don't like that Rasmussen is polling on Wright. The way they slanted the question sounds almost like a push poll.

3. Black vote

Listed at 74-10 in favor of Obama. Undervalues Obama's support if recent trends are accurate.

4. but he also has IN in play for Obama Obama within 5 adn 13% undecided

5. His lead among African Americans is 74% to 10%

So you have 16% of African Americans are undecided at this point and given their turnout will be around 35%, that is about a 6% further bump for him.

I think Obama will carry NC by at least 15%.

6. yep, that will be much higher. Both ARG and Zogby out today show bigger leads for Obama.

[marzellino]

7. 9% is a healthy lead

NC will be the nail in the coffin.
