More real facts instead of Spectre-dust spin....

Internals in the CBS poll:

Most useful within in are the measures that show the biggest changes since the pre-convention CBS poll conducted in mid August. Some examples:

50% say Obama "has made it clear what he would do as president;" up 9 points (from 41%)
58% say Obama is "tough enough;" up 10 points (from 48% in July)
67% of Obama voters say they "enthusiastically support" him; up 19 points (from 48%) before the convention

37% rate Joe Biden favorably; up 23 points (from 13%)
41% rate Michelle Obama favorably; up 13 points (from 28%)
52% rate Hillary Clinton favorably; up 7 points (from 45%)
At the same time, several measures show little or no change since mid-August:

39% rate Obama favorably; unchanged since mid-August

44% say Obama has "prepared himself well enough for the job of president;" unchanged since mid-August
McCain's ratings are unchanged; from 34-33% favorable/unfavorable in mid-August to 35-34% now.

48% say McCain "will generally continue George W. Bush's policies;" up only one point (from 47%).
