Don't believe me? Here are CNN's numbers!
Obama (D) 53%
McCain (R) 45%
So why are we seeing Barack Obama pull away to a larger lead clearly outside the margin of error? CNN says it's mainly because of three major factors:
1. The economy is Issue #1, and Obama is preffered over McCain on the economy by a full 18%!
2. Sarah Palin's popularity is plummeting, and McCain's "Hail Mary" attempt has turned into a Debbie Downer dragging his numbers down as well.
3. McCain is now seen more than ever as the exact same as Bush.
But can McCain recover enough to give us a run for our money (to flee the country) in the next month? Possibly... Politics can be unpredictable at times. But at this point, attitudes are hardening and decisions are already being made. And with Obama now at a 50%+ majority in many of the polls with the remaining polls showing Obama well ahead in the high 40s, the Republicans are not in a good position in the final stretch of the 2008 Election.
If Obama stays strong, keeps debating well, and continues to speak to our concerns, we'll win. :-)
