2. Obama has held his 50-53 in most national polls for |
|
weeks now. mcPOW can "tighten", but never overtake him.
46 is about his ceiling anyway.

5. I was thinking that they have solidified and @ 49-50%, Obama can't lose |
|
So McCain needs to "steal" voters from Obama to win - reason for the vile hateful robo-calls. He risks losing his own marginal supporters through his negative strategy though, so it's a double-edged sword.

3. You probably don't realize why that's good news. McCain clearly had a slip from yesterday to today |
|
since he gained a full point in a three day average with the release yesterday and failed to gain today.

6. I was happy it was the same |

I will refrain from commentary until Sunday when most all of the latest news has been digested (debate + post debate BS).

9. The state races make it lean more toward Obama this time |
|
The national polls are nice, but the individual states, which Obama has a very strong chance of winning 270+ EV's are going to make it very difficult for McCain to make this competitive.

We may feel as anxious by the end, but Obama has a much bigger advantage than anyone has held since 1996. We will win. It may be close, but not 2000 close or even 2004 close.

10. I'm happy that it stayed the same overnight and suspect ... |
|
... and suspect that it will climb a point as the debate works it's way in. We're solid at 49/50% and while I'd love to see a blowout in the popular vote (and still believe that it will be somewhere around 52/48) electorally speaking we have this on lock :)
