ok but another poll shows Obama up in VA today by more than the MOE. Thats two today alone.

The only polls still polling McCain ahead are Rasmussen/FOX, which has been biased GOP for at least 3 points this entire season.

From NBC's Mark Murray
A new Washington Post/ABC poll has Obama leading McCain in the battleground state of Virginia by three points, 49%-46%. Inside the numbers:
-- "Among Obama's biggest advantages in the poll came on the question of who would do more to shake up Washington. On this measure, a clear majority said Obama would do more, despite McCain's efforts in recent weeks to position himself as the true reformer."
-- "Overall, 59 percent of Northern Virginia voters support Obama -- very close to the 60 percent number Democratic strategists identify as crucial, and the level Kaine and Webb achieved in their wins.
-- "In Hampton Roads, an area Bush won by four percentage points in 2004, 50 percent of voters surveyed back Obama, while 45 percent support McCain. African Americans account for about three in 10 voters in Hampton Roads."
-- "Half of all Virginia voters named the economy as their top concern, and they favor Obama by a nearly 2 to 1 margin."
-- "Although voters split over which candidate can best manage the war in Iraq, McCain holds a 10-point lead on handling terrorism or an unexpected major crisis."
