Poll: Voters souring on McCain, Obama stays steady

Now I know why I am seeing all those McCain/Palin signs and bumper stickers. They have been popping up all over the place, as well as more and more NOBAMA stickers. How could I not have known this was coming. < /sarc>

I hope someone is archiving all this crap. It will make a good book one day.

Same here in NH. I was in Riley's in Hooksett, NH the other day (good store/shameless plug) and the crowd was almost out the door.

Obama Insurance.

Republicans-29%

Democrats-44%

Ind.-27%

Take a look at the sampling from this garbage!

Now, Obama is seen favorably by 57 percent and McCain by 52 percent — a close margin that masks the opposite direction the two rivals' ratings are heading.

Leaving aside the Independents, the sampling slant gives Dems a 15% polling advantage.

If Obama only gets a 5% result with that, then McCain likely has a 10% lead in the favorable ratings.

Obama is sunk, otherwise the sampling slant toward Democrats would not be increasing daily just to keep his results slightly ahead.

Wondering about the sample:

- Registered Voters?
- Likely Voters?
- “American Idol” Sheeple?

Obama is more trusted on the economy

The McCain campaign must ARTICULATE the connections: 0bama + Affirmative Action SubPrime Loans = Financial Meltdown. Obama + Redistribution of Wealth = Depression.

[who knows what evil?]

It's an Internet poll and the numbers are beyond stupid if you look at them closely.

Ron Paul was an 'internet phenomenon', and look how that turned out.
