The polls have been drifting Obama's way for the past week. He got some support from the ones overnight. His debate performance likely won't change to momentum. Those numbers don't correspond to some of the numbers I have seen. Intrade has Obama with a significant lead. Yes, it did drop 1.4 points, we will see what happens going forward. Do you know what Intrade is? It is very similar to the Policy Analysis Market by DARPA. And that was a variant of the Delphi Method which DARPA developed at the beginning of the Cold War. These things can be extremely accurate with the right conditions.
