This is the news I was expecting though to be honest. I don't care what Gallop thinks, because clearly they have stopped thinking.

...we've had two polls showing a two-point move toward Obama (Ipsos, ABC), and one showing that same movement toward Rmoney (Gallup, of course). Plus, the Rand group-tracker put Obama back at +5.7. Overall, those who want to claim continuing "Mitt-mentum" are going to have a hard time demonstrating that the trendline, as opposed to one poll here or there, is moving inexorably toward their candidate.

I am so emotionally invested in this election that the ABC/WP 50-47 poll yesterday made me almost suicidal. I don't think I've ever been so upset in my life. Glad that the numbers are moving back President Obama's way. I can come in off the ledge for now *until the next bad poll* sends me reeling again. lol.
