Zogby Shocker: McCain Ahead?
damnum absque injuria —
Not according to their latest three-day poll, and a 1% lead is inside the margin of error anyway, but any way you slice it, a single day of McCain up 48-47 is a clearly positive sign for McCain. It sure would be a bummer if McCain ended up winning by a squeaker on Election Day but losing because of early voting.
Dissecting Leftism — ... Pollster John Zogby: "Is McCain making a move? The three-day average holds steady, but McCain outpolled Obama today, 48% to 47%. He is beginning to cut into Obama's lead among independents, is now leading among blue collar voters, has strengthened his lead among investors and among men, and is walloping Obama among NASCAR voters. Joe the Plumber may get his license after all. "Obama's lead among women declined, and it looks like it is occurring because McCain is solidifying the support of conservative women, which is something we saw last time McCain picked up in the polls. If ...

... More cautious than Drudge, however, Zogby says that it's too early to declare that McCain has made decisive gains over Obama.

The Tide Has Turned. Will The One Be Able To Walk On The Water?
The LLama Butchers —
The Tide Has Turned. Will The One Be Able To Walk On The Water? I have no doubt that the momentum is swinging in the direction of Little Mac. The only question in my mind is whether it has turned in time and in sufficient force to wash The One away. In my humble opinion: Those who genuinely believe The One will provide the kind of leadership this country needs are honest fools. Those who support The One because they want to "get back" at eight years of Chimpy McHallinaziRovezombieShrubman are damned fools. Those who support The One because they think they've got a shot at ...
Gallup Daily Tracking: Obama Now Has Leads McCain 52% To 42% Among Likely Voters
The Moderate Voice —
... But if you think this is definitive, think again: no polls are definitive until the actual Big Poll is cast on election day. And Zogby has a poll saying McCain is gaining. (A Drudge report screaming headline says McCain pulled head on Friday, but the link-to the Zogby story does not mention that). In the case of Zogby’s findings, the informercial didn’t work. ...

Barack Obama Cannot Close
The Wide Awake Cafe —
Run away. Run away.
Barack Obama cannot close.
He never did actually beat Senator Hillary Clinton in the primaries. The Democrat super delegates abandoned her and went over to Obama. In the last days before the primaries in several states although his polls promised a lot, he just couldn’t quite seal the deal.
Now McCain’s ahead of Obama according to the Friday Zogby one day poll. Perhaps that’s why Obama got so testy with the press last night when he was taking ...

It's hard to tell whether this is a reaction to "It's about time!" complaints that would tend to come from the center-right, or to "How dare you!" protests from the left (my money is on the latter), but pollster John Zogby took an unprofessional turn in his Saturday report (to be replaced in 24-48 hours) that was released in the wee hours this morning. ...
