Based on that question, there are signs that undecided voters may be more inclined to move to McCain than to Obama. The largest number of undecideds 38 percent would rather get advice from McCain thats nearly three times as many as the 13 percent that would go to Obama. The remaining say neither (27 percent) or are unsure (18 percent).
Furthermore, independent voters pick McCain by a 15-point margin (41 percent 26 percent).
As one would expect, most Obama voters 78 percent say they would go to him for advice. Similarly, fully 83 percent of McCain voters would consider him their trusted guru on a tough life decision.
While 68 percent of Democrats would go to Obama for advice, nearly one of five 18 percent would pick McCain. Most Republicans (74 percent) would go to McCain, with less than one in 10 saying they would pick Obama (7 percent).
Overall, slightly more voters say they would turn to McCain in this situation (43 percent to 37 percent Obama).
In such a tight race for the White House, where both candidates have positive favorable ratings and strong support from their party faithful, there are some troubling signs for Obama from undecided voters

It’s going to be great to see his arrogant peacock self who constantly acts above his station be just devastated on election day. He won’t be able to comprehend how he lost 45 States.
The winds of history are blowing strongly against Obama. He has been deceived by his crowds into believing his own hype and it has destroyed his campaign.
“He wont be able to comprehend how he lost 45 States.”
45 out of 57 isn’t all that bad. Remember McGovern only got One state and the District of Columbia. Of course, back in those days we only had 50 states, and 49 of them went to Nixon.
Dems are good at rationalizing. He can console himself with the thought that 45 out of 57 is not a total loss.....

Sure he will. He and all the Dem/media elites will decide that America is still a very racist country.
They will say McCain “stole” the election, just like they did about Bush - both times!
His "arrogant peacock self" makes my skin crawl.
He wont be able to comprehend how he lost 45 States.
Didn't you mean 55 States? ;)
All this means is the “Keating 5” card will come out sooner rather then later.
There has been a lot of talk about the Bradley Effect costing Obama a couple of points at the close. That’s probably right, especially with the Democrat party being the party of racists. If you couple that with the gut check voters that this poll indicates can’t pull the lever for an inexperienced nobody and Obama has big problems - 45 state landslide sized probelms (and that’s out of 50)
how could they not. Obama is an inexperienced liberal extremist
What do you consider a “big” win?
Yeah, but the media will dump obama so fast that he will not get any air time for more then 2 or 3 days after its over.
Obama will be a non event to them. They will get right back spreading lies and propoganda and start attacking McCain.

I think the GOP should be careful about counting on the “Bradley Effect.”
I read somewhere that it hasn’t held up as strongly recently, as it used to in the days of Wilder and Bradley.
Maybe 1% or something, but not 3-4%.
When the GOP or McCain ask for money to support McCain, print and send them one of these.
