The Beasts predictions from Friday of a dead heat in the RCP.com average and +2 McCain by Wednesday are looking pretty feasible. The race has shrunk to +.08 Obama in overall polls at RCP.com, which is a 6 point shift in as many days. Expect it to continue on this way a little more as McCains convention sleigh coasts to a stop at the bottom of the hill.
On Gallup (McCain +3): This is the most, but not all of convention bounce - expect it to maybe even tick up a point or two then drop back down somewhat.
By the way, the Gallup poll which has McCain/Palin (damn that feels good) up by three was based on a HUGE SAMPLE. From Gallup:
The general-election results are based on combined data from Sep. 4-6, 2008. For results based on this sample of 2,765 registered voters, the maximum margin of sampling error is ±2 percentage points.One-third of which was polled on Thursday before McCain gave his well-received acceptance speech. So expect another 1-2 points tomorrow. Right now this is an 11 point McCain swing, boys and girls - from -8 to +3 in FIVE DAYS!

Oh,oh—biden better be ready for those bus wheels.
It’s on Youtube. The context is missing, but what is there is pretty shocking.
It’s on George Steph.’s show, whatever it’s called. Today’s show.
I appreciate your optimism- I will remain very catious....
Heart felt slip of the tongue.
Exactly. Registered=+2 for Dems. This poll is really a 50% poll for McCain. Very good news.
