Obama Leads McCain in New Zogby Poll

Wednesday, September 17, 2008 5:39 PM

WASHINGTON — Democrat Barack Obama has a 2-point lead in the U.S. presidential race on Republican John McCain, whose choice of Sarah Palin as his running mate helped shore up support for both candidates, according to a Reuters/Zogby poll released on Wednesday.

Obama leads McCain among likely voters by 47 percent to 45 percent, within the poll's 3.1 percent margin of error. He gained ground in the last month among independent and women voters and on the question of who could best manage the faltering U.S. economy.

Yeah.......Once the media has its fill of this, it will be on to the next thing. This will stay close because Obama has no plan either and won;t come out with anything of substance until he see's which way the wind blows on the AIG bailout.
