I don't know where it comes from but I've seen the spelling "lede" before.

On "The Factor" last night Ted Baxter had two black clergymen on, one supportive of Obama's decision, one opposed, but even the one who supported the Biblical view of marriage said he would vote for Obama (and apologized for earlier comments that implied that he wouldn't).

On "Fox & Friends" this morning Larry Sabato was discussing the latest poll numbers with Steve Doocy. Supposedly only 4% of voters have not made up their minds--Sabato thought that was not unusual at this stage in a Presidential campaign season.
