“I have seen little evidence to suggest that Romney would be all that helpful in Michigan”

Does anyone else find it curious that McCain alone gets 41% support and that adding Romney only bumps the total up a little bit? The increasing margins come almsot entirely from the deterioration of Obama's numbers.
There are some strange numbers in that poll. Why would Joe Biden cost Obama so much support? Or the liberal's dream, Kathleen Sebelius? Or Richardson? I could see them not adding to Obama's total but taking away substantially doesn't make sense. It appears that the poll is capturing the effects of a Romney vs. the Democrat VP matchup. If true, the effect could be transitory as the Democrat VP becomes better known and the voters return to focusing on the top of the ticket.
