Ras has Obama up 1. That's pretty close.

At first blush, that would seem good. But the result is unchanged from yesterday, which means McCain polled no better yesterday (Friday) than he did for the day that rolled off the averages (Tuesday). I actually consider that a negative.

Well, only for people who think McCain is going to march to some magic 55-45 lead.

He isn't, and neither is Obama. This is an electoral college campaign, and all that matters is that McCain ekes out a tiny margin in five states, OH, FL, NV, CO, and VA. If he's "down" by one on election day nationally, I think he wins those five.

The convention bounce will not hit until Tuesday according to Rasmussen himself on Fox last night.
