So if this thing goes the other way they can blame that 13% and claim they are still an accurate pol

7. Unlikely All The Undecideds Will Go In One Direction
I would question the legitimacy of the poll...

12. Yeah, no way could they pass that off as all the undecided votes going to McCain.
The most I could see is McCain getting 7% of that 13%, which still means he loses.

2. My guess is that this will settle into about a 6-8 point race and that's where it finishes up.

4. This poll looks good. Others are tightening some.

But it mostly seems to point to the red states getting redder, and the Republicans solidifying for McCain after his "Joe the Plumber" "socialist" rhetoric of the last week. He's definitely not winning any Independents.

8. You should point out that Obama is up 1 from yesterday, McCain down 1
This is especially important as many are looking for post debate moves in the polls!

13. It was just a suggestion
1) You did it when you posted the Rasmussen poll and
2) nearly every poll post points out the trends

But whatever - I thought it was a reasonable suggestion as this is a big positive since yesterday.

16. I know it's going to be 3-4% by election day
Heck, some right-wing polls may even show McCain ahead on the MOE - I can take it (I think) :D

14. Anywhere between 5-10 point national lead translates into a decisive EV victory.
It's good news!
