I would not base any moves on some of these polls. McCain needs to be very careful who is doing his polling. He may have signed on some agency that is inherently leftist without knowing it. If Michigan was a four point game last week, it’s unthinkable to write it off just a week later.
Hopefully the Mccain team could find a decent, non-biased research outfit to conduct their polling.I’m sure they looked at their own polling in combination with the publicly available polls before making this decision.
This may be the public financing thing coming back to haunt him.
For those wondering about the timing on this, it’s because the MSM will spin this as an admission of defeat, but the coverage of this will get lost in the debate coverage.
