Ouch!... Obama Drops Like a Rock- Suffers 15 Point Swing
Gateway Pundit — ... Obama also lost ground among Catholics and Southerners. McCain’s surge follows a month in which he has aggressively portrayed Obama as an out-of-touch elitist and celebrity not prepared to be President. McCain also continues to accuse Obama of being willing to lose in Iraq in order to win the election. While Obama was on vacation last week, McCain took the spotlight, talking tough about Russia’s military action against the Republic of Georgia. That hurts. HotAir and JWF have more. ** In ...

Hugh Hewitt: Winning Reagan's Way
Townhall.com Blog's TownHall Blog — ... good nation doing great things, as it has been for the past two hundred plus years. The GOP has championed these core ideas since 1980 and there is no need to apologize for them though the leadership on the Hill failed to execute well in the past few years. Picking a leader within the party as a running mate underscores Senator McCain's commitment to the ideas that powered the Reagan Revolution, and a bumbling, fumbling, inexperienced Barack Obama has no response to these ideas.

McCain got to the heart of the question about Obama, and especially after the crisis in Georgia, he has voters wondering whether Obama is up to the task of running the presidency as his first executive job in politics. Even a strong VP pick may not help reverse that perception — and could make it worse by overshadowing the nominee. Democrats may not have been in a weaker position at convention time since 1984.

“Trapped in a world they pretty much made”
protein wisdom — ... , the McCain campaign has seen a 15 point swing (I know, Zogby . Take it with a grain of salt) — much of it, I suspect, having to do with The One being exposed to those who aren’t de facto worshippers or Oprahfied new agers; and much of it having to do with realization on the part of many voters that for all the Democratic ticket’s talk about change, the real move for change and reform is likely to come from the GOP ticket.
