New Poll: McClatchy/Ipsos

The bad news: It's all tied up.

The good news: McCain was +1 last week, so it's an improvement.

Here are the new numbers:

Obama 45%
McCain 45%

Basically, the McSurge faded. His support softened as "Palinpalooza", "Lipstick-gate", and "Kinder-sex-gate" became increasingly irrelevant. Also, the Lehman-Merill-AIG financial crisis may have been on voters' minds in the final days of polling (the poll was taken Thursday-Monday).

Let's keep up the hard work, and hopefully we'll see continued improvement with these numbers.
