1. K & R!

[DavidDvorkin]

2. Trend lines are diverging again

That's always nice to see.

3. K

Because you can't R your own posts. Which I'll be the first to admit is a good restriction, because I also admit that I'd be among the first to abuse such a privilege.

4. I always bash this poll, but I'm hoping that it's..

more accurate than Gallup right now.

5. They show exactly the same result

if you have a firm a grasp on the idea of a "random process"

6. Well no, they aren't exactly the same

Within the margin or error, yes.

7. nope, the exact same result.

and the exact same result that they have shown for weeks it that Obama is ahead by a small margin.


They also show that the race is static. Obama falls to his low of 44/45 (gallup) and McCain reaches his high of 44/45 (gallu) once a week or so.
