The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Saturday shows Barack Obama attracting 52% of the vote while John McCain earns 45%. This is the first update based entirely on interviews conducted after the second Presidential debate and it shows virtually no change. On Tuesday morning, just before the debate, Obama was leading 52% to 44%.
In fact, the race has remained quite stable for more than two weeks. This is the sixteenth straight day that Obama’s support has ranged from 50% to 52% while McCain has been at 44% of 45% (see trends). Fifty-five percent (55%) believe Obama will win the election, 15% expect a McCain victory, and 27% say it is too close to call.

Unless and until McCain points fingers, names names of who caused the mortgage meltdown, it’s over for Yosemite Sam ... It’s all about the economy.
He has started that with the ACORN ad, he needs to do much much more. And to Buraq Hussein Obama’s face at next week’s debate.
The only reason Obama is ahead is economic anxiety.
How low will the DOW go down if Obama gets elected? Will it go down to 1000?
What will the DOW be at the end of this week, may be 6000?
There's your key right there. Look at the internals. Always look at the internals.
Don't make me post the Drama Queen picture.
LOL Ras, you are a tool and you will be through after this election.
Astonishing.
Well, it ain’t over till it’s over.
If Obama becomes president, the radicals, cop killers, bombers, islamo-fascists, abortion murderers, and Wall Street frauds will triumph.
We will be persecuted by truth squads and inundated with school children singing the glories of Obama and his glorious new socialist order.
God have mercy on us.
The mostly entertainment-glazed over public has been kept shuttered away from the truth about Obama. The media is diabolically cuplable here.
This is all a reaction to the economic crisis and a knee jerk reaction in stereotyping republicans as being the “rich and mean” party.
I say the GOP has to more like the unpopular parent that has to make grownup decisions that cause their teenage progeny to throw a tantrum.
That’d make us all feel better.
mccain is in trouble because of mccain.
the news media has TWO rallies where the people are BEGGING him to go after Obama.
Instead McCain has this lose with honor BS going on.
There is no honor in being a fool.
McCain needs a serious dose of whoopass infusion.
NO WAY obama is getting 52 Percent of the vote.
How can he get 46 in one 52 in one 48 in one. These polls are all over the place. DONT trust them.
What can we do about this?
It is my honest belief that Democrats are being oversampled in these polls. Regardless I do believe we’re going to have a tight race.
The pollsters and the media (same thing) want us to give up and stay home on November 4th. It’s not going to happen.
Totally meaningless but on our street the McCain/Palin signs have sprung up overnight. For the 5 GOP signs there is only one Obama.
JSM has turned into a blithering idiot.
If it were not for Palin I have be gathering stuff for the impending destruction of the USA. I still may do that. We may just head on up to Alaska, thats about as far away as we can get from DC. If thats what it will be called after the election.
There's an additional percentage who have lost their survival instinct after decades of being told that the only way they can be a good person is to celebrate their own dispossession.
Hello! a maht problem .
If yesterday was 51 -45 then where does the plustwo come from in your Title ?

The RNC refuses to engage the public all throughout the year - This is what is needed in this day and age of the complete bias 24/7 MSM.
