3. Obama is back to where mcPOW never made it.

mcPOW's ceiling is really around 45%. mcPOW is at his highest point right now, the Convention/phalin was a bump that is OVER!

2. WooHoo - is about all I can write. Not fancy, but that's what I feel! n/t

4. This is a beautiful thing ... another 2% each way and I can relax 52-42 would be fantastic

5. Nice way to start the week of McCain's unravelling.

6. Is it safe to say that Obama's never gone below 47

and McLiar can't get above 45?

That seems significant to me.

7. He can't get that high.

Obama hit 43 once, 44 three times since he was the presumptive nominee. mcPOW has hit 46% twice, and then hit his high of 49% after the convention/phalin. But, that was an anomoly, just his convention bounce. He is at his high point now. I can't wait to see him breach into the 30s.

13. Woops.

I guess my optimistic nature kept me from seeing that green line when it dipped below McLiar's.

8. Ummm, looking at the image in the OP, Yes BO has gone below 47

BUT NO MORE!

12. D'oh!

I need to turn on some lights in here!

10. This is really good news!

I took a look at Gallup early this morning and Obama wasn't yet at 50%. So this appears to be the most recent poll. This is really encouraging. I made another donation to Obama's campaign last week and will be making more. Not a lot, but whatever I can and I hope as many people as are able will do so as well. I recognize that there are so many people out there in severe financial distress (Thank you, George W Hoover!), but if anyone is able to donate I hope you do.

Now, not to be a buzzkill (sorry, showing my age with that word) but the article linked here is worth reading. It's sad, angering and worrisome. Still, it will make an Obama
victory that much sweeter.

Please understand that I am not linking the article to be negative. I just think it's worth reading so people understand just how difficult this campaign is still going to be.
