Both the polls and market having corrections. McCain up, market up.

10/8/08

The race for the 2008 presidency is settling back a bit on Obama's momentum -- at least that is what can be concluded from the four national tracking polls we see today.

Battleground Tracking: Obama 49, McCain 45.
Hotline Tracking: Obama 45, McCain 44.
Reuters Tracking: Obama 47, McCain 45.
Rasmussen Tracking: Obama 51, McCain 45.

AVERAGE: Obama 48, McCain 45. (Obama +3)

Obama's 3% lead is much less than the peak he had of about 7-8% just a couple of days ago.

This movement back towards McCain is likely just a correction in the race after a period where Obama gained considerably in a short amount of time...

Well, that's cherry picking for you.

Daily Gallup has him ahead by 11 points on a steadily rising curve.

RCP Average which includes many more polls than you mention has him at 5.1.

Intrade Market Odds faovor Obama 73.5 to 26.4!!!!!

So if you really believe McCain's gonna win, put your money where your mouth is. You stand to make a fortune.

Might help you ride out the New Depression.
