THE POLL: Fox News/Opinion Dynamics, national presidential race among registered voters

THE NUMBERS: Barack Obama 46 percent, John McCain 39 percent

OF INTEREST: Obama's lead in this poll is about the same as in late September. Having Joe Biden as Obama's running mate makes people 11 percentage points likelier to support the Democrats, while McCain's choice of Sarah Palin is an 8-point drag on the Republican ticket. Half say the economy is the election's top issue, with no other problem coming close. More trust Obama than McCain with handling the economy, 50 percent to 35 percent, including a majority of independents. More view Obama favorably than unfavorably by 26 points; the difference is half that for McCain. More expect Obama than McCain to win the election by a 3-to-1 margin.

DETAILS: Conducted Oct. 8-9 by telephone with 900 registered voters. Sampling error margin plus or minus 3 percentage points.

Palin was an eight point DRAG before Troopergate. What a stupid pick for McCain.
