The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows Barack Obama attracting 50% of the vote while John McCain earns 46%. It’s the first time since September 25 that McCain’s support has reached 46%, Today’s numbers do not reflect any impact from last night’s Presidential Debate. Results are based upon nightly telephone interviews and reported on a three-day rolling average basis.
Apparently Ras didn’t expect this from happening that he declared the race is over last week. State polls lag about 2 weeks, so entering the last week of campaign period they will be tie or hopefully McCain up by 1-2 in the battleground states.
The race was ALWAYS tight, just like the last two elections. All the MSM has tried to do is fool people into thinking it was not so those who would otherwise vote McCain may get demoralized and stay home.
Go and vote folks, regardless of the polls.

Forget about the polls!! Pray and work for it. God is in control not the MSM and the pollsters. It doesn’t matter if they say McCain is up by 10 or down by 10 just work to get out the vote. Forget the polls!
Wait a second. McCain gaining before the debate. But McCain was taking about Ayes before the debate. I thought all of those “personal attacks” on Obama did not work and were turning people off. That is what the NY Times, CNN, CBS and the rest of the Obamedia keep saying. How could they be wrong? big f’n /s
Amen to that. But we also have to overcome our own party since this thing is so disorganized. Here is South Florida we do not know who is coming or going. But we do know that all of our help is required to overcome our mess. People need handholding, direction, and a whole host of other things to get them to the polls.
So please volunteer and get our base out. It isn't pretty here in South Florida. But we do have work to do.
We are getting closer.
