Leaks allegedly coming from the Obama campaign, along with a new AP poll, suggest a Democratic win is not as sure as people may think.
The latest AP poll shows the candidates in a dead heat, with Obama at 44 percent and McCain at 43 percent. While this could suggest that McCain's
latest Joe-the-Plumber narrative has struck a cord, some
point to the methodology as reason for caution.

Six percent of voters say they are less likely to vote for Barack Obama on account of his race. This stat feeds the concerns that America is not "ready" to elect a black president. But, hold off a second — that's not the end of the story.

John McCain will reportedly stop employing staff, airing ads, and sending mailers in Michigan, instead
relocating resources to Wisconsin, Ohio, and Florida. Since McCain is taking Michigan tentatively out of his win column, let's take a closer look at the electoral map. We hear all about national polls, but those don't matter on November 4.

This morning I saw the
latest Gallup poll showing Hillary Clinton leading Barack Obama 49 to 42 percent among national Democratic voters. This got me thinking — what is going on with the Dems?!
Even people inside Hillary Clinton's campaign acknowledge that there is no way she can win more pledged delegates, and it is nearly impossible for her to secure a popular-vote victory.

John McCain is pulling away from his Democratic challengers. The latest
Rasmussen Reports poll shows McCain at 49 percent vs. Obama at 42 percent.
