Barack Obama and John McCain are now tied, at 42%, according to a CBS News poll taken over the last 3 days. CBS had the race at 48-40 in a poll conducted over the last weekend. Presumably, Palinosity infuses the new results. Yet why didn't it have more effect in that 48-40 poll? Maybe it's not Palin per se, but the attacks on Palin that fired up the support.

Whatever the reason, this only confirms what Scott Rasmussen said last week: that at least 10% of those who declare themselves for one candidate or the other are in fact very loosely attached to them, and can readily change. If the pollsters didn't push for an answer, you'd probably see a much higher undecided number.
