There's been some tightening of late. But nearly all of it is conservative Republicans coming home.

McCain needs to peel off Democrats. He can only do that if he appeals to them on culture and if Obama remains off the air.

I suspect Obama's infomercial will shore up exactly those soft supporters who agree with him on the economy but are a bit uneasy about him as a person.

Granted the media are part of Obama's campaign — but look at the projected electoral votes and give it your own reality check (sniff test). That's assuming the projections are based on truly likely outcomes in each state. Obama's totals in the projections are well into the mid-300s total electoral votes.

Certainly they can measure, though. As long as they don't flaunt that action.

I'm as interested in polls as the next person and while I enjoy reading and speculating, especially when my chosen candidate is up by several points, the only poll I'll really put confidence in is on Nov 4. We've seen bizarre movement in polls before, even at the 11th hour, so overconfidence would be a mistake on anyone's part. Speaking of overconfidence though, I'm still trying to figure out how McCain can guarantee his supporters a republican victory. I guess that remark belongs to the rest of the campaign blather… unless he knows something the rest of us don't.

Just out of curiousity Joe, what Democratic themed blogs are overconfident about an Obama win? None of the ones I read have taken that tone, but then again, I don't go places like Kos or Huffington, so I don't know if those are some of whom you speak. I'd be interested in reading some people who are overconfident at this point.
