We really haven't had a situation like this since 1952 (I think). Isn't that the last time we had no incumbent President or Vice President running? Polling wasn't exactly great back then...remember, "Dewey Wins!"? I guess my surprise at Obama not having a bigger lead comes from the relative UNpopularity of Bush and the Republican Party as shown in "other" polls. Most polls over the last 18 months or so have shown a "generic" Democrat beating a "generic" Republican for President by 15 or so points.
