I wouldn’t get concerned just yet. Most of the public is still trying to learn just what Sarah Palin is all about. Once they have a better idea of where she stands on the issues, they’ll be more apt to change their support accordingly. Give it a little time, folks.
I think the fact that McCain’s favorability rating shot up 10% with independents is an extremely positive sign.
Obama, too. Yesterday he wowed an Ohio audience with visions of windmill and solar factories "all over the midwest" bringing back the struggling economy. Even a democrat can only take so much of that kind of tripe. William Ayres is another player the public is just being introduced to. That connection is starting to look toxic.
I sincerely hope you are right.
