Of course they will caution that this was before Palin's speech.

1. Well... that measures the Thompson/Lieberman effect.....

2. Big fuckin deal. It's got two days of the RNC in it.

If Palin's speech and McCain's speech fail to change these numbers, though, it means he's fucking doomed.

3. Still good news. It means that Thompson/Lieberman's speech didn't resonate with undecideds

Palin will swing a few, I believe, but really despite the much harsher tone of last night's speeches, nothing really different, content-wise was said.

6. I think the Undecideds will break much harder for Obama now

Another Gallup poll released shows Undecideds down recently, 9%. 6% go to Obama. 3% go to McCain.

I think post-Palin we may see a harder break of Undecideds for Obama. They are pandering totally to the nutjob base, and it will not help them with the undecideds, who are the crucial voters to get here.

4. After the Palin speech, McCain's support will drop I bet. nt

5. Watch this graph tomorrow, Palin bump is then
