2. a nice little bit of info from the site
Rasmussen Markets data on Friday morning suggests that Obama is a slight favorite to win the White House in November. The Democrat had been a heavy favorite for most of the general election campaign, but McCain was given a slight edge for several days over the past week. Market data is updated on a 24/7 basis by market participants and current give Obama a 52.2 % chance of victory. Expectations for McCain are at 47.3 %.

3. Seriously...
Who the hell are they polling? They seem completely out of line with the trend most other polls have been showing. Very bizarre.

5. Their weighting does seem to over sample Republicans.
And it always has. Basically, if you take the difference between Ras and DKos, that's about where things really lie (which means Obama +3.5 right now.)
