O....M....G.... Today's Gallup National Poll...

[CoffeeCat]

Just saw on MSNBC---

Obama--52
McCain- 40

:wow:

[Demi_Babe]

1. WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO

[Blue_Adept]

2. Unpossible!

McCain must be looking at it like Ralph Wiggum now...

[CTyankee]

5. Who is Ralph Wiggum? nt

[unblock]

13. "me flunk english? that's unpossible!"

one of the more memorable quotes from the simpsons.

[populistdriven]

94. I think im going unsane!

[Fearless]

121. Now you know what to do laddie.... burn the house down!

Ralph: Daddy I'm too scared even to wet my pants.
Chief Wiggum: Just relax Ralphie and it'll come.


Ralph: "What's a battle?"
Sup. Int. Chalmers: "Did that boy just ask what's a battle?"
Princ. Skinner: "No, no! He said what's that rattle!"


:rofl:

What a boring Tuesday!

[niceypoo]

86. This is Ralphy.....

From Simpsons

[gmoney]

98. "Good afternoon Supernintendo Chalmers!"

"I bent my wookie..."

[PurpleChez]

119. Ralph...Jesus did not have wheels.

Poor Ralph.

[Buddyblazon]

93. See my sig...

[krispos42]

153. Charachter from "The Simpsons"

Police Chief Wiggum's idiot son. :-)

[PBS Poll-435]

17. ...

[chupacabranation]

72. "What do the berries taste like, Ralph?"

"It tastes like....BURNING"

[swimmernsecretsea]

140. You smell like dead bunnies.

Can I be your friend?

[VWolf]

115. "My cat's breath smells like cat food" nt

[ailsagirl]

191. They all do-- wish they were vegetarian!!

[SoonerPride]

38. Welcome to DU!

:hi:

[Gold Metal Flake]

62. "I'm a brick!"

[unpossibles]

who, me?

I like sleep! That's where I'm a Viking!

[FatDave]

83. "My cat's breath smells like cat food!"

[XemaSab]

156. My doctor told me I wouldn't get so many nosebleeds

if I kept my finger out of there! :o

[SuperTrouper]

3. Joe Scarborough and Pat Buchanan on suicide watch

[City Lights]

12. David Wilkinson-Gregory too.

:rofl:

[bushisanidiot]

15. Add David Gregory and Tom Brokaw to the list

:P

[SuperTrouper]

52. Bad Andrea Mitchell not happy either

[Pirate Smile]

75. Hopefully, it is good Andrea who is working today.

[snappyturtle]

182. I thought she was going to break out crying this morning over the

fall of the stock market and NOW this. Poor thang!

[unblock]

22. why? right-wing commentators LOVE being able to gripe about a democratic administration

did you see pat buchanan smile ONCE during shrub's entire stay in the oval office?

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

100. Oh Boy! You mean we get to WATCH?!

:popcorn:

[WI_DEM]

4. that is pretty close to research 2000/daily kos tracking poll

which is 51/42 today, and just yesterday's results were 52/41 for Obama.

[habitual]

6. w0000000000t n/t

[Botany]

7. And it is just going to get bigger

:bounce:

[ClarkUSA]

36. Not sure about that -- it's a pretty big lead. Let's not get greedy or set ourselves up.

We should be happy if it stays this way, especially after the bailout plan is passed and the economic crisis eases in the public
mind. Republicans are planning a major distraction as we speak: Osama bin Laden tapes, Palin teenage wedding extravaganza,
some foreign policy crisis that will favor McCain, etc.

[Botany]

68. Palin talks to America this week

:bounce:

A vote on McCain is a vote on George Bush's Presidency ....
And bush is at 19 - 24%

Although he will have the fundy vote.

[13 Hawks]

124. And the October Surprise will be . . .

The best October Surprise will be happening in a few days when
millions of Americans get open their portfolio statements and
see how much they lost!

[ann_american2004]

175. yup, our 401K are pretty much gone

Luckily we have time to get them back up...in like 20 years. I feel bad for the people retiring soon.

[liberalhistorian]

163. Exactly, let's not get

too carried away here yet. Remember, five weeks is a lifetime in politics and anything can happen within that time. Remember, also, that it was just a few short weeks ago that McSame was ahead in almost all of the polls. Granted, that was largely due to the "Palin honeymoon" which is now all but over, even for many formerly enthusiastic conservative pundits (such as Kathleen Parker), but it still doesn't mean that something won't happen where he'll be back up in the polls as well.

[MadBadger]

8. WHere did you see that...sure it wasnt 50-42?

[jezebel]

25. That's what I'm wondering. Could the OP have mixed up the #s? They don't give todays #s this early.

[bunnies]

9. Great Jeebus! 12 points?! Are you sure???

:wow:

[tekisui]

10. That's what I'm talking about!

[Kaylee]

11. Can I start hyperventilating now?

OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!

:woohoo:

[Schulzz]

14. Was this the 3 day tracking poll or a one day sample?

7 point increase in 2 days seems a bit too much.

[Marsala]

16. That's one hell of a day

I guess we know who won the debate for sure now, eh? Wouldn't it be amazing if this holds?

I don't know who will be more panicked, the McCain campaign, the Freepers or the media who see their beloved horserace slipping away?

[treestar]

18. Looks like McStunt's McSuspension made him look unstable

And his partner Unable gets more and more known!

[TwilightGardener]

19. So...that's not the tracking poll, but the "snapshot" poll? Wow.

[Sugarcoated]

23. What's the difference between their usual poll and a

"snapshot" poll?

[TwilightGardener]

26. Tracking poll is a three-day running average, but Gallup will do separate

national polls that are only one-day results.

[ClarkUSA]

20. On MSNBC, Charlie Cook/Republican sympathizer, is insisting that "the debate was not a game-changer"

Um, Charlie, have you seen the polls since the debate? :smoke:

[JMDEM]

21. I'm surprised it isn't 70 - 30

30% of this country is nuts, but I'm surprised the rest haven't clued in on what a disaster the Republicans are.

[Gregorian]

54. I'm disappointed it's not 90-10

Americans have shit for brains, to be blunt.

I've spent my entire adult life in a state of disbelief. But the end of suburbia is very near. The party is almost over. And at that point reality will be king. Until then, commute 100 miles each way, deny global warming, breed, vote for whomever helps your business, and just consume with no limit in sight.

Sorry. I can't help myself. I wanted a society that had vision.

[greyghost]

113. I didn't get very emotional about the news until I read your post....

All I can say is BRAVO! Well said!

[Gregorian]

194. Thanks. I needed some love.

I may not be intelligent, but I'm bright. I just can't not see. I grew up around an abundance of common sense. Not many are as lucky as I. But it's painful. Hey, Vonnegut died unhappy. And so did Hunter Thompson. Not that I'm in that league. But maybe parts of me are. Haha.

[greyghost]

196. I hear that. Keep fighting the good fight.

[leftist.]

24. You lie!!!!!!!!!

Are you serious? Is that the daily tracking poll that comes out each day at 1:00pm???

WOWOWOWOW!

[Alter Ego]

27. HOLKY FUCK

:arzy:

Mayberry Machiavelli, wherever you are, you'll get this.

[my3boyz]

28. SHUT UP! No, really don't! I'm STUNNED!!!!!!!!! Thanks for info. nt

[mikiturner]

29. I thought it said 50-42

And it doesn't come out until 1p EST.

[quantass]

30. k&r

[Lucky 13]

31. !

:rofl:

Do you think we can sustain this through Nov 4?

[JohnnyK]

151. ...sustain through Nov 4th? Yes We Can!

Not a problem, but it will be interesting how low the McCain team will stoop in the final days.

[CrispyQ]

32. But, but, but,

CNN reported that they think McCain won the debate on Thursday. :eyes: :crazy: :eyes: :crazy:

Thanks for this post!!

[nickinSTL]

168. yeah, well...the online poll at MSNBC

when I voted on it, showed 80% thought Obama won the debate. And that was some days after the debate.

[tclambert]

190. The debate was Friday

[unblock]

33. it's "only" 50-42

still worth a :woohoo:

[peace frog]

129. Hell yes, I'll take 8 points

12 would be better but 8 is enough. ;)

[Zambero]

141. Gallup's daily tracking poll numbers leak out a few hours early

Yesterday's 50-42 margin was announced on CNN in the AM. We'll know in another 2-3 hours.

[TwilightGardener]

34. Two Sparkles, are you SURE you didn't just mix up the current tracking poll results?

[K Gardner]

35. But.. why isn't Obama MORE ahead? It's an outlier ! You have to look at the

combination of ALL polls. Its only a snapshot. (I'm trying to get a jump on Todd, Shuster and Tweety ! )

[Lint Head]

37. If Obama loses this race it WILL be stolen.

:dem:

[goclark]

128. You are so right and the Rove Elves are busy right now

We can not have our eyes wide shut in this election.

We must do everything to educate our voters that they must be the policeman for this election.

Cell phones and camcorders at the ready.

Sure GOTV but I'm still not convinced that they are not working like crazy on the critical states.

Just like they put Obama way up today, since the control the polls and the MSM, they can turn on him tomorrow.

[norepubsin08]

150. NATIONAL GUARANTEE YOUR VOTE DAY

Please log onto www.guaranteeyourvote.org and participate in our call to action tomorrow-thanks-Mike C

[workinclasszero]

39. 12 points?? OMG!!! WOO HOO!!!

PRESIDENT OBAMA I SALUTE YOU!!!!:patriot::toast::party::applause:


GOBAMA!!!:woohoo:

[quantass]

40. I strongly think he is mixing the #'s..should be "50-42" -- but hey i'd like to be wrong

[gateley]

41. Whoa -- really?

That means Obama has continued to climb -- and break through 50!! -- and McCain has continued to sink.

I hope this is right!

[Schulzz]

42. Did they go on to say the race is in dead heat? nt

[spanone]

43. Y E S

[President Decider]

44. Once the world watches the Thursday night massacre of Biden vs. Palin, we'll pickup another 3-5%

[musicblind]

102. If we do pick up 5% and hit 17% I don't see HOW they can make up that kind of ground by the time

the GE rolls around.

[PurpleChez]

118. Why pick it up when you can steal it?

Whether it's 52-40 or 50-42 it's nearly to the point where they can't steal it so easily. I hope....

[mcollier]

117. Im thinking more like

7 - 8 %

Grab some popcorn.... Like watching SNL on Thursday! YaY!

[Pattib]

45. Hallelujah!!!

[LiberadorHugo]

46. He can still lose...

The social liberal and social democratic (at the time...Now they're their neo-lib fucks) Parti Liberal du Quebec won the popular vote by 7 points and lost the election by 6 seats to the rightist Union Nationale in the eelction of 1966. At the time, the Liberal stronghold of Montreal had 40% of Quebec's population and 20% of its seats. The Liberals are responsible for their downfall for failing to rectify this problem in the six years they had been in power.

[Sodan]

47. Did anyone else see this?????

[stuntcat]

48. Let's just wait 'n see what Sarah can do about that

B-) :+

[rocktivity]

49. I'll really believe it when he breaks 50%

on Pollster.com's national average.

Nonetheless, remember to always take polls with a pillar of salt.

:headbang:
rocknation

[Sodan]

58. Same here but I use this one:

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/

I think the difference between the two is that realclearpolitics doesn't include the Zogby (online polls)

[spiritual_gunfighter]

162. real clear politics

Has the electoral count at Obama 249, McCain 163, which is really what is important.

[SeaLyons]

50. Obama - Landslide Victory!!!!!

I can feel it!!!!!!


GOBAMA!!!!!

[Vanje]

51. Whats McCain gonna do next?

Replace Sarah Palin.
Choose Bristol Palin for running mate.

[Yukari Yakumo]

53. Delete

Edit- Wrong poll... maybe.

[Connie_Corleone]

55. That's not 52-40 and that's from yesterday.

[uponit7771]

66. RCP shows the 50-42 was from the 27th, there are no numbers on RCP from today

[Sander]

166. From MSNBC Site at 1:35 PM, 9/30

"The Gallup Poll daily tracking survey on Monday (9/29) showed Obama with a 50 percent to 42 percent lead over McCain." See http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26955707/

[MadBadger]

56. No, I think the OP mixed up the last number in the poll.

[bunnies]

59. Thats 50 - 42. NOT 52 - 40. I knew it was too good to be true.

*sigh*

[Kaylee]

61. Got it. So, 50-42 are yesterday's numbers.

Did he go up again overnight?

[uponit7771]

57. Unnnn, what about others? Thx

[eshfemme]

60. Okay, now I'm getting greedy. I want a fucking landslide.

We need to keep up our A-game! Don't get complacent. I don't know if this is true but it sounds true--apparently when the race isn't close, voter turnout goes down so we really need to emphasize that despite what the polls say before Election Day, get out and vote for Barack Obama!!!!

Seriously, I doubt that McCain can make up that much pointage even with a swingback in the polling numbers.

[ericgtr]

63. OP needs to edit this n/t

[iheartmulletz]

64. Yay! Totally, completely awesome! It's how it should be!

I mean, come on! And the debates/Palin freefall have sealed the deal...

[Shine]

65. BOOM!

:toast:

[Peacetrain]

67. Oh Boy...

This is wonderful.. oh my GOD..

[Kablooie]

69. According to some freepers, Friday after the VP debate it will turn around.

They are damned confident that Palin will blow Biden away.


Hee hee hee.

[Schulzz]

70. But Delaware is too far away from other countries!

Is that a risk we are ready to take?

[Schulzz]

71. Dupe...

...

[SuperTrouper]

79. LMAO!! She'll be ready to be Vice-President when Comet Kohoutek makes another visit to our skies

:rofl:

[Zambero]

139. Will the Wasilla Witch Doctor will be present?

Driving those liberal demons and witches away?

[helderheid]

73. yeeeAAAHH!!

[Brotherjohn]

74. Awful lot of posts for a misread poll. It's 50-42 (yesterday). Today's isn't out. That being said..

... the Gallup Daily Tracking Poll IS likely to go up more today, based on such a strong post-debate day that raised it from a 5-pt to an 8-pt lead so quickly. Chances are Sunday's polling results (to be factored into today's average) will still be pretty high and Obama's 3-day average lead may go up more (I'd guess to 9 or 10, but not 12).

http://www.gallup.com/tag/Gallup%2bDaily.aspx

Keep an eye on it. Usually updated ~ 1:00-2:00 Eastern.

BTW, MSNBC has been notoriously late in updating their ticker. They ran Saturday's result (5-pt lead) ALL DAY Sunday, many hours after the Sunday poll (8-pt lead) was released... but still under the heading "Latest Gallup Poll". They need to hire somebody new to write their ticker.

[TheEuclideanOne]

185. HOLY COW!!! He is now ahead by 15 points.

I just checked the gallup poll and he is ahead 49 to 34! Woo Hoo!!!! :rofl:

I do agree, there sure were alot of posts for two transposed numbers. It is kind of funny when you think about it, since so many people here are checking the polls regularly (or compulsively if you are like me) and a URL here and there could have ended many ongoing discussion. "I think it might be this" or "I think it might be that" It is not as thought Gallup is difficult to find. :)

[chupacabranation]

76. Holy. Effing. Crap. n/t

[Guaranteed]

77. Yeah, but why can't Obama "close the deal"??

:P

[ailsagirl]

78. WOW-- am I dreaming??

[RichGirl]

80. Let's all do...

THE DOUBLE DIGIT DANCE!!!

[Jersey Devil]

81. Gallup releases its new daily figures at 1 pm daily

[nutshell2002]

82. Gallup website 50 (O) - 42 (M) from sun...not yet updated n/t

[trashcanistanista]

84. This does not surprise me. I knew he had at least a 10 pt

lead. I am hoping for 15 or 20 by the end of Oct. I registered people and sold swag all weekend. Our numbers (sales and Dem registered) go up every weekend. There is momentum and excitement I have never seen before in my life. Unless they steal it, it's already ours. Stay calm, focus and keep working. It can be a blow out.

[deadparrot]

85. Um, if/when this breaks, I want to see FR.

They were positive (and I wasn't going to be surprised if) he was going to go down a point or two, with Thursday's big numbers (released on Friday) falling off the radar.

[npincus]

87. no f*cking way!!! The poll comes out at 1PM EST.

?????

[ericgtr]

88. Can we get a mod to fix this? It's very misleading

Thanks

[maseman]

89. Maybe MSNBC gets the data embargoed

and someone released it from there.

[VolcanoJen]

91. Not necessarily. MSNBC might have received the polling info early.

We're due for a Gallup National (not the usual Gallup Daily Tracker that comes out at 1:00 pm EDT).

TwoSparkles could very well be right. Hang onto yer hats!!!

[codjh9]

90. I'm hearing Stevie Nicks singing 'Landslide' in my mind...

[FreeState]

92. So MSNBC were wrong? Its unchanged today n/t

[A-Schwarzenegger]

95. INCORRECT! ............. LINK:

http://www.gallup.com/poll/110788/Gallup-Daily-Obama-Maintains-8Point-Lead.aspx

[No Passaran]

138. that was yesterday

[HughMoran]

145. And what is the date of this post?

??

[A-Schwarzenegger]

174. And tomorrow this will be yesterday.

Time is funny like that.

[rndmprsn]

96. its over...the race has broken wide my friends =]

GOBAMA!

[gristy]

97. It's 50-42 at Gallup today. Not 52-40

http://www.gallup.com/Home.aspx

Gallup Daily: Obama Maintains 8-Point Lead
September 29, 2008
Barack Obama continues to lead John McCain by eight percentage points in the latest Gallup Poll Daily tracking update, 50% to 42%, which includes two nights of interviewing after Friday’s presidential debate.

[Gore1FL]

116. Gallup doesn't update their site until the afternoon

I usually check http://www.pollingreport.com/wh08gen.htm around 1:30 Central time to see today's figures.

[Gore1FL]

169. Todays #s are out. 49%-43% n/t

[Name removed]

99. Deleted message

[musicblind]

103. or respond. she never returned to the thread either. You'd think she'd at least check back

and follow up with some responses.

[HughMoran]

106. I nicely asked the mod to fix the O/P as it's embarrassing to all of DU

What happened? My post was deleted!!

So much for trying to help :(

[Dem_4_Life]

101. WOW...that is fantastic!!!

McLiar is probably about ready for his head to explode. How long till he starts to get violent?

:toast:

[HughMoran]

107. It's actually 50-42

O/P is wrong.

[Sparkly]

104. Yeah baby!!!

:woohoo:

[HughMoran]

108. It's actually 50-42

.

[D23MIURG23]

105. I'm doing the happy dance!

[HughMoran]

109. It's actually 50-42

O/P is incorrect.

[D23MIURG23]

114. Damn!

I feel so lied to!


Oh well, 8 points is still pretty good.

[farmbo]

110. This means NOTHING! Redouble your efforts. Send in more money.

The attack ads are in the can.

[knixphan]

112. exactly.

Register one more person this week, everybody!

[vanderBeth]

111. Holy fuck!

[HughMoran]

134. Well, it's actually 50-42

The O/P is incorrect.

[wizstars]

120. can you say "landslide"???

November 5th will be a sweet day in America. I feel it.

[HughMoran]

135. Hopefully, but note the O/P is inaccurate - it's 50 - 42

Still a big lead, but not 12 points!!

[13 Hawks]

122. LANDSLIDE

No one should be surprised. Everything is in place for a
landslide. National polls have had a tough time figuring out
the scope and dimension of newly registered voters. That is
now being reflected in State Polls and crossing into the
National Polls.

One need only look at the crowds that Obama/Biden are drawing.
Tens of thousands! When McCain speaks, the walk away.

[HughMoran]

133. It's actually 50-42

...though I think a landslide it possible, the O/P is mistaken.

[SDFalconer]

123. Now that's more like it!

Makes it harder for them to rig the election. :toast:

[HughMoran]

132. It's actually 50-42

.

[No Passaran]

137. do you not understand that 50-42 is from yesterday

how many posts you're gonna make about this? OP said "TODAY". Learn about polls. Thanks

[HughMoran]

143. It was 50-42 on BOTH Sunday AND Monday. This post is from Monday (yesterday)

2 days had the exact same numbers - check for youself - there are several posts with the actual link.

I'm trying to help, don't criticize me without having checked first!

[timber84]

125. Why is this sill here?

It is wrong information and needs to be removed. Love how thw OP has never returned to fix it ot ask for it to be deleted.

[HughMoran]

127. Amazing and embarrassing

I and many others have asked that it be fixed, yet poster after poster sees the O/P & replies, not realizing the numbers are incorrect!


:(

[natrat]

126. if it stays there they wont be able to steal it ,,, i think

[jules1962]

130. OKAY 50-42

What is great is just thinking about all the repugs right now that are scared of that "librul" getting elected. HA! Bush and his screwed up cronies have sent this country down shitcreek and now our guys have to come in and clean up this mess. Typical. I will have to smile a little brighter at my repug neighbors this afternoon. Tomorrow night is going to be so much fun. This just adds more pressure to Palin. Choke,bitch,choke.:woohoo:

[Amonester]

131. Yes, and don't forget to ask your repug neighbors, if...

they earn less than $250K/y, that is, why they don't want Obama/Biden's tax-cuts, and WHY they're STILL okay with McGamble's plan to give $300 billion MORE to his already richer than they'll ever need LOBBYISTS?

(Please post their stupid - if this question doesn't make 'em flip - answer here! Curious minds want to know!) :think:

[Alcibiades]

146. We don't talk like that here

The use of that word is insulting to female dogs. Please use gender-neutral terms that may more accurately describe Palin, such as fundie nutjob, lying sociopath or arrogant tyro.

[Peggesis1]

187. Early voting--stay clear of Diebold machines

Here in Ohio we are pushing hard to get as many voters as possible to the polls early. Early voting in Ohio starts today--and NO DIEBOLD MACHINES! If your state has early voting, use that method to cast your vote. Let's try to keep this one from getting stolen.

[Phred42]

136. Why are you falling for this?

This is simply to get you used to watching and BELIEVING the Polls.

By the time we get to the last week of October the Polls will show Grampy and Obama tied.

Then when they steal the election it will seem plausible to you.

[pipi_k]

142. I would be excited and encouraged too, except that

I honestly believe that the MSM are perpetrating a massive "wag the dog" campaign on the American people...

Sort of like the tobacco companies that fooled around with the nicotine levels in cigarettes to keep people "hooked" on their products.


I dunno...I just get this really icky feeling inside that the American public is getting played like a violin by these evil bastards....that we're all just puppets for their amusement.


Even if they're not consciously manipulating the polls, or the results, I still think they're getting off on making us all dance to whatever tune they play.

[LatteLibertine]

144. Bush and the adminstration are killing McCain

Not to mention Senator Obama comes off as more intelligent, reasonable and presidential.

[scytherius]

147. Yeah but

But what if they steal it?

http://markcrispinmiller.blogspot.com/2008/09/spoonamore-reveals-plan-to-steal-next.html

[Myrina]

148. wasn't it like that yesterday morning too ?

:shrug:

The more days in a row we string together like that, I say YAY!! :bounce:


:patriot:

[HughMoran]

149. Sunday: 50-42; Monday: 50-42; Tuesday: Not released yet

This thread has bad numbers and is from yesterday :(

[No Passaran]

154. there you go again

He said he heard it on MSNBC. We get that you go and look at Gallup and they show polls from yesterday. Hint: They don't update until 1pm. If you're new to this board, don't be new in life. Alright? Thanks.

[HughMoran]

155. You are wrong and can't admit it - even the day before was 50-42!!

You're just plain 100% wrong!!

Do you have issues admitting when you are wrong??

Sunday: 50-42

Monday (the day this was posted): 50-42

Tuesday (today): not released yet

So, even is she reported numbers a day old, they STILL would have been 50-42!!

:rofl:

[No Passaran]

157. do you honestly not get it

He said he heard it on TV that the "snapshot" was 52-40. He did not point to your link at gallup.com where you get the old number. Are you a newbie here or just a freeper in disguise? These polls hurt your feelings?

[HughMoran]

159. A dozen people have pointed out that the 52-40 never existed and "snapshot" was never mentioned

The original poster simply heard incorrectly or accidentally transposed the numbers in her head.

160. And I believe neither of you. Not yet anyways.

But your constant posting and crying about it is really disturbing.

[HughMoran]

161. It's "disturbing" posting a correction to a deceptive poll that has people crowing "landslide!!!!"?

I care more about seeing people deceived here than I do about being "annoying".

Truth is everything. I will not allow people to be deceived into thinking the lead is 30% bigger than it is.

We have a LOT of work left to do here. Stop taking my correction personally.

[HughMoran]

177. Today is only 6% lead - 1/2 of what's in the O/P

Oh, well, at least Obama has a good lead.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

178. I'll take the real 6!

And Rasmussen & Hotline (the two other rolling 3-day polls)
also have him 6 up. I'll take that.

152. Florida was going for McCain slightly

Now it's tied. Pray that it comes out of the tie with Obama ahead. There's a great site that combines the polls and tells you how many electoral votes each has. It's updated daily. Right now, Obama 286 McCain 225! http://electoral-vote.com/
