Brand New Polls Just In

Gallup Daily Tracking Poll an ABC poll, a CBS poll, and another poll being reported in USA Today tomorrow morning, according to an editor with the paper speaking seconds ago on Hadrball, show two important things:

1) An Obama lead of 11 to 13 points, and

2) A trend spreading this difference.

I don't believe it, but I thought you'd like to know.

Some of these polls are also showing that in the traditional area where R's lead D's, the opinions of those polled is even: Security, economy, etc. In other areas, the D's are killing the R's.

Dave: I think that poll might have been Pharyngulated, but still, I've been speaking to a lot of voters in a conservative area, and whenever I get the chance I ask what people think about Palin. The conservatives who are voting for McCain all say they like Palin (they sort of have to) and the reason is either a) she is close to god or b) she hunts bunnies from the helicopter.

Or both.
