22. If you are using any likely voter screen you will use the one that includes intent.

What do you think of "our" nominee? I'm curious.

28. Even though Gallup narrowed slightly today Obama's overall average increased today

from 6 something to 7.3. As for Gallup, the second scenario is more likely based on increased numbers of minority voters. Also, probably most of the nation wide gains for McCain were in the south as the state polls show Obama pulling away from McCain big-time in the swing states. I would guess people in Alabama and Mississippi are falling for the Ayers crap, but it's backfiring in the swing states.

6. He's been linking only Zogby lately because it's the only poll which shows it relatively close.

27. So after hannity puts out the call for listners to spread doubt on progressive forums...

we have "optimists" spreading pessimism, using "data" that hasn't been released and cited by drudge of all people. Not that I'm calling out but...Things that make you go hmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Motown_Johnny]

8. Assume the lead is about 7-8. anything that has that range within the MOE is reasonable

[Essene]

10. realax folks... expect things to tighten, anyways

[Tutonic]

13. I've got an Ouija board too. Its all that JZ's got left.

17. Sludge is right 1/3 of the time n/t

[Awsi Dooger]

26. The race is going to tighten

The landscape of an open race is hardly a 6-8 point advantage. More like 2-4 in this climate. You have to accept that and not get carried away with extreme margins in our favor, the same way the couple of weeks with McCain in the supposed lead were not meaningful going forward.

Obama is in great shape. But he's not going to pick off the second tier states like some posters are currently proposing.
