Gallup The race has been in a statistical dead heat for the last five days, after McCain's lead grew to as large as five percentage points following the Republican National Convention. In essence, the race is back where it was before the flurry of political activity that began Aug. 25 with the Democratic National Convention and continued through the Republican convention, which concluded on Sept. 4. The candidates were dead even at 45% in Aug. 22-24 tracking, the last report of interviews conducted entirely before the beginning of the Democratic convention. (To view the complete trend since March 7, 2008, click here.) It is unclear to what extent this week's headline news about the collapse of Wall Street financial institutions and changes in the stock market will affect the race. Obama has generally held the advantage when Americans are asked which candidate would better deal with the economy, though McCain was able to close the gap after the Republican convention. Monday night's interviewing did show Obama doing better than he has been in recent updates, but it will take several days to see if he can sustain an improved position. -- Jeff Jones

Sarah Palin is a traitor. And a liar. And a phony. And an idiot. Everyone knows it. Except stupid Nazis and traitors. Example: Palin stated today that we need much more regulation so that the government can get out of the way of private business. That is a complete contradiction. She also reversed heself today and said she will not cooperate with Troopergate's bi-partisan investigation at all (because she knows she's guilty of abuse of powr for petty family reasons). She is also an ignorant beauty queen with a personality from the hinterlands and as top conservative columists wrote today, is not at all qualified to be anywhere near the presidency. Nor is McCain after proclaiming 22 times that our economy is fundamentally strong. What liars. These two are going down and the entire US rightwing had better realize they are not just wrong and bad for America, they are crooks, traitors and in many cases fascists. No better than Al Qaida or Enron. End of story.
