Gallup Daily Tracking Holds at 52/41. 11 point lead for Obama 2 days running.

That Ayers strategy sure is a winner!

1. This is the time to work the hardest.

That lead MUST be sustained for another 4 weeks.

[FatDave]

3. Of course.

Better yet, widen it.

2. Ahead of the "Bradley Effect"

I heard one pundit say that we'll need a 6 pt lead to effectively mute the "Bradley Effect" - the statistical tendency of white people that answered Obama on a poll, but will vote McCain in the privacy of the voting booth (where they can remove their hood secretly).

[FatDave]

5. I don't buy the Bradley effect.

Why would a white voter lie about who they were voting for rather than come up with a rationalized reason for voting for McCain? All they have to do is say "I like his stand on blahblahblah." Makes no sense to me. Well, as a cover for election fraud it makes sense. Gotta justify the difference between exit polls and final counts.

4. Jim Vandahei from Politico said McCain's internal polling shows the attacks on Obama are working in

swing states. Yeah, they must be VERY internal!
