McCain takes lead over Obama: poll | Reuters
McCain leads Obama among likely U.S. voters by 46 percent to 41 percent, wiping out Obama’s solid 7-point advantage in July and taking his first lead in the monthly Reuters/Zogby poll.
If I were wearing my tinfoil hat, I’d note that Zogby has been a Clinton ally for years, and further note that while the media has already “coronated” Obama as the nominee, the Democrats gathered in convention have not. Finally, I would mention that a switch of 223 “super” delegates from the 463 currently pledged to Obama would give Hillary Clinton the Dem nomination.
The scrawny harridan lady has not yet sung, folks.


Remind me never to play the election prediction game again.
Never mind Beijing -
Heat up the popcorn, and ice down the long-necks - the real Games are about to begin…
Take it awayyyy…Denverrr!!
If Hilary wins the nomination now I would suggest that all the Korean store owners in Watts lock and load if they plan on keeping a store..
My crystal ball suggest that this is not a move to replace Obama, but to get Ms. Hillary on the ticket.
The poll is just a reflection of the Russian invasion of Georgia. McCain sounded decisive, and Obama didn’t. With the public’s attention span, it might be ancient history by November. It sure was convenient for the Clintons, though. As Jules Crittenden likes to say, it ain’t over ’til the last eye is gouged out.
