Tomorrow Will be a bad Polling Day for Obama
I think he will drop to around 3-4 points behind Hillary in the Gallup poll, and He will maintain his lead in Rasmussen, but lose most of it. If any polls have been taken over the last couple days, they will show Obama doing a little bit poorer. BUT, the next day Obama will rebound and climb to a level that he was higher before. people will take in what they saw him do in the press conference and this whole Wright spectacle will be a net plus for Obama, at least in the primary sense. Then we wait for the next bullshit scandal to drop.

12. and if a national poll meant anything to an election
That would mean something. What will matter is how each state poll is affected by this, in particular, the states that are actually doing this amazing thing called voting next week.

4. I think each candidate has like 40 percent solid support, and then 20 percent moves back and forth.

5. Your read on things is reliable, hnmnf, but I'm more for Obama now than
yesterday.

I just sent in a donation. For a $15 donation, they'll send an Obama 08 car magnet:

https://donate.barackobama.com/magnet

--and they looked pretty good. I'm good for the donation anyway but the magnet helps promote a good soul to higher office.

6. Perception may be that he had to do all this, but he's tainted anyway
Most people just catch snippets in the car radio.

9. Wright isn't going to take what Obama said kindly....even if BO is just being a politician...
and talking out of both sides of his mouth...I suspect we'll hear quite a bit more from Wright.

The race card that the Obama team hoped to play in North Carolina seems to have turned around and bit it. Karma is a bitch.

16. Nice analysis, it seems to reflect the evidence of what happened before
in Wright Round 1 and every other BS scandal this season.
