    Newsweek turned heads with a poll two weeks ago touting a massive 15-point lead for Obama. Their newest survey has heads turning in the other direction, showing Obama's lead dwindling to just 3 points over McCain: Obama 44 (-7) McCain 41 (+5) Undecided 15 (+2) In the Newsweek poll, Obama's support among Republicans and Democrats was basically unchanged, but his support among Independents dropped 14 points, to 34% from 48% two weeks ago. McCain increased his support among Republicans by five points (to 83% from 78%) and among Independents by five points (to 41% from 36%).
