What, no thread yet on Obama's huge drop in the Newsweek poll?

Sorry, at first I didn't pick up your sarcasm as well as I should have. Duly noted.

 

And yet he didn't respond with the personal attacks that seem to be your MO.

 

You get what you give. (Not just on this thread.)

 

This guy agrees

 

That made me chuckle.

And then there's this;

Obama has 7-point edge on McCain: Reuters pollWed Jul 16, 2008 8:12am EDT
By John Whitesides, Political Correspondent

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democrat Barack Obama has a 7-point lead on Republican John McCain in the U.S. presidential race, and holds a small edge on the crucial question of who would best manage the economy, according to a Reuters/Zogby poll released on Wednesday.

More than a month after kicking off the general election campaign, Obama leads McCain by 47 percent to 40 percent. That is slightly better than his 5-point cushion in mid-June, shortly after he clinched the Democratic nomination fight against New York Sen. Hillary Clinton.

Obama Leads by 8 Points In Poll
Economy Remains The Top Concern

By Dan Balz and Jon Cohen

Sen. Barack Obama holds his biggest advantage of the presidential campaign as the candidate best prepared to fix the nation's ailing economy, but lingering concerns about his readiness to handle international crises are keeping the race competitive, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

Overall, the Democrat has a lead of 50 percent to 42 percent over Republican Sen. John McCain among registered voters nationwide, lifted by a big edge among women, and he has also regained an edge among political independents. But it is Obama's 19-point lead on the economy that has become a particularly steep challenge for McCain.

 

But who cares about the numbers in a states which are clearly Obama or McCain? Obama is going to win NY no matter what, if his margin is 1,000,000 instead of 300,000, that will skew the national polls and have no impact on the electoral college race.
