Yet Gallup and CBS/NY Times have Obama up 8-13 points.

What a mess.

Battle Ground by Tarrance for 10/31 (3 day average ending 10/30) has it 49% O and 45% M which is a one point DROP for McCain...from the last 3 measurements!

Polls will drive you nuts. Just VOTE!

When polls are this out of whack, you can’t say “statistical noise”. Someone is actually WRONG in their turnout assumptions.

It was the result of a one day poll. The others are still reporting 3 day trailing polling results.

The pollsters will start to move toward the 1 day model in the closing days because 3 days trailing does us no good being reported next Thu for this Mon.

Anyway there is a key thing happening right now. The proof is here that Obama cannot close the deal. He is going to lose points on this over the next couple of days. It looks like he is starting to hemorrhage though...if that is the case you will see a decent win for McCain come Wed!

299 EV’s for McCain
239 EV’s for Obama
CA goes to Obama but no more than 5% spread.

Another massive liberal spending program fails...Over $600 million wasted...

I don’t trust CBS/NY Times as far as I can throw them, so that poll should just be ignored as propaganda. Gallup is worrisome, but it seems out of line with so many other recent polls(Battleground,Zogby,Ras,IBD,etc.). I think the polls are not catching whatever is going on out there.
Just get out and vote McCain/Palin, no matter what!
