No doubt Palin's national debut has left her with some high negatives that will be tough to overcome in the future, since it's not like she can dazzle voters on policy issues. Proving, once again, that you can put lipstick on a pit bull but it's still a dumb animal.

How close IS it? From PfP: Rasmussen has it within three. Obama dropping to 50%, McCain sits at 47%. Gallup has it within two. Obama dropping to 49, McCain sits at 47%. Do not let this recent spate of state polls demoralize you. State polls are lagging indicators behind the national trend. The states are also within striking distance. The polls are also all weirdly and heavily weighted to Democrats when all the early voting trends thus far don't show much of an increase over 2004. Obama and his minions in the media are bluffing with this inevitable thing. Believe me, they're bluffing. It's all about the trend. The trend's the thing. The trend's your friend.
