McCain Sees 17-Point Surge In USA Today Poll
The Royal Savage ^ | 9/8/2008 | Holden Des Montsverts

Posted on 09/07/2008 8:34:47 PM PDT by Yankee Sailor

The USA Today/Gallup poll completed on September 7 has the McCain/Palin ticket holding a 10 point lead over Obama/Biden.

[Polling data can be found in original post]

This represents the first time McCain has led Obama by a double-digit margin since january, 2007. It also represents a 17 point swing in McCain's favor since the last USAT/Gallup poll completed on August 31 and the first time McCain has led Obama in the RealClearPolitics average since April.

Expect the panic in the Obama camp to spread accordingly.

That’s more than a bounce, that’s a catapult (cudapult?) shot!

Is it still called a bounce if you’ve entered low earth orbit?

No, at that point it becomes a launch!

We all should pray for the safety of our country and our candidates. God Bless them and keep them as they campaign all across America.

We should all continue to work just as hard as we can to ensure the Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin are elected.

Any such attack opens Dems for a hypocrisy charge

The 0 campaign has to either explain why anyone making $50,000 a year is “rich” or they have to explain to their supporters that the 0 administration won’t able to take as much away from people who earned it to give the those who did not or they have to attack.

Anybody taking bets?

I saw the posts that showed the ten point lead. I just didn’t think of it in terms of the amount of change. This is almost scary. In a good way.

Now add 6 points to that number and you’ll have the real lead.

Step right up and place your bets, folks!

When will Joe Biden drop out of the race for "health reasons" or "family reasons"?
