As it becomes apparent that this race is essentially tied, Barry will lose the air of inevitability. With a large number of undecideds this late, it suggests 1) that the debates really were not as good for Barry as the elites thought, 2) Barry has failed to seal the deal, and 3) his support may be wide, but it ain't deep.
If these numbers hold through the weekend, McCain will take the wind and use the momentum to win.
Would that be Obama’s righteous wind? I can only imagine what that smells like, and it isn't lavender and lilacs.
