It appears that Obama's 3-point lead remains unchanged. Note that these results are pre-debate.

As large as McCain’s lead is in solidly red states, Mac may take the popular vote and Obama may take the electoral college.

Well within the realm of statistical noise really.

13% undecided? That’s a loss for Fauxbama folks. No way late undecideds are going to break big for Fauxbama, I’d say at least 2 to 1 or 3 to 1 will break for the known element, which in this case is McCain.

Won’t happen... Fauxbama has lost PA, he needed 19 EC votes if he held PA, without it he needs to pick up 40 EC Votes... and that’s not going to happen. (And that’s assuming he doesn’t lose any other previously dem state)

The 0.3% change is statistically insignificant.

Great because gallup has him down by 2 and after the debate and the odumbo/biden attacks on the small biz today we will see a lead shortly

I think this is where the race is.

If Obama is only up 3 nationally, I have a good feeling the majority of battleground states will swing to McCain.

I think Obama needs to be up 6-8 points nationally to swing states like Virginia, Florida, and North Carolina in his favor.

The only states that really concern me right now are Ohio, Colorado, and Nevada.

I think Iowa and New Mexico are gone.

Oh and I think we have a good chance still at Pennsylvania.

I think the reverse is more likely. The South will be republican but less so than normal because of the larger Obama vote.

Your link takes you to a non working website.

IBD's website still has yesterday's poll. Also, RCP doesn't show a new one either.

“I think the reverse is more likely. The South will be republican but less so than normal because of the larger Obama vote.”

I actually think the south will be bright red because of the larger than expected Palin vote. The mythical “larger” 0bama vote is based on 1.3 million new (fraudulent) Dem ACORN registrations. That is what worries me most about this election. I think without the (larger than normal) voter fraud, McCain wins by 2-4%.

McCain will win !!

This says the race is basically tied.

McCain will end up winning the undecideds and win the WH.

I can’t wait to hear the cries from the media

Hey, don’t forget “operation chaos” where repubs re-registered as dems to vote for Hillary.

That will both lower the number of repubs and increase the number of dems in the weighting.
