Honestly some of the internals in polls like this really should give us hope, as they make NO SENSE IMO. Read below.

Obama leads McCain by 50-43 percent among women. Al Gore won women by 11 percentage points and John Kerry won them by 3 points. White women back McCain 52-40 percent. In 2000, white women backed Bush by a razor-thin 1 point margin and by 11-points in 2004.

Among men, Obama leads by 50-43 percent. Bush won men by 11 points in both 2000 and 2004. And while McCain is favored among white men by 5 points, that is a much narrower margin than Bush's 25-point win among this group in 2004.

McCain narrowly leads Obama, 49-44 percent, among white Catholics. And married women, another key-voting group, go 48-44 percent for McCain. In 2004, Bush won white Catholics by 13 points and married women by 11 points.

Obama's lead among those who say they have already voted has almost disappeared. He has a 1-point edge -- just 48-47 percent -- in this latest poll, down from a 52-43 percent lead previously (Oct 28-29).

"Obama appears poised to win the popular vote on the message of change that has underpinned his candidacy from the beginning. Although highly unlikely given the greater enthusiasm among Obama supporters, the one plausible path to victory for McCain would be much higher turnout among white men than anyone is anticipating, and much lower turnout among newly registered voters," says Opinion Dynamics Corporation Vice President Chris Anderson.

They purposely changed their weighting. Last poll only had I believe a 2-3 point difference.

“For what it’s worth, the final Fox poll had Kerry up in 2004.”

By what was the margin? At least 5% I think...

So as my post with some of the internals cites, we are to believe that Obama is winning men and women by the same 7 percent. And McCain is only down 1 among those who early voted, which should include many of the Obama voters. And one of their assumptions is that white men may not turn out, WTF is going on with these guys doing the polls!

If it has a TV station or a Newspaper/magazine in its title, toss it out.
If it has both, burn it, too.
