Feel free to search around yourself because that's his weighting method -- to use party ID figures from the most recent presidential election. As he said in 2004, "My polls use a party weight of 39% Democrat, 35% Republican and 26% Independent." (http://zogby.com/news/ReadNews.dbm?ID=859) Those were the 2000 party ID figures. The 2004 figures actually showed an even balance between GOP and Dem IDs.

It must have been a swing state poll that I remembered seeing.

Anyway,are you then saying McCain is pretty much screwed?

It looks that way at times, but then again if the undecideds break for McCain in a big way -- which is a distinct possibility -- anything could happen. But polls 5 days out showing Obama at 50 or above are definitely not a good thing for McCain no matter how you slice it.

Sounds like McCain needs a miracle from God.

McCain has cheated death so many times in his life that if anybody can comeback on the last weekend, it’s John.

According to history and the laws of probability, Yes.
