1. Its gonna be tied soon and Obama will take the lead soon in this poll

The economy is going to do McLame in with lots of people.

[DavidDvorkin]

4. The economic news this week should let out what air McCain's balloon has left

That would be the one good thing about the bad economic news.

2. slowly but surely...

Obama needs to be like he was yesterday, every day from now til the election...

[DavidDvorkin]

5. Yes! Or even more so.

[WeDidIt]

3. Does anybody else remember how Obama, in nearly every case during the primaries

consistently outperformed the polls? Usually he did it by about 5 points. sometimes much more

Seems they weren't polling new voters then, either.

6. yes, he did. I particularly remember Indiana and North Carolina polls

which had NC much closer than it ultimately was and Indiana which gave HRC a double digit lead and it turned out to be about a 1-point difference between the two.

8. Exactly. Don't sleep on turnout, people. It will make a difference.

Those new democrats who voted in the Primaries are almost certain to come back and do it again for real election. And who knows how many registered since then will show up? If even half of them do, we are in good shape.

7. I think that the DOW's collapse is hurting McBerry

[DavidDvorkin]

9. I've been expecting that, and Diageo Hotline agrees

They now have Obama 46, McCain 42, and they attribute Obama's lead to worries about the economy.
