8. Polls

I haven't visited DU in a long time since I live in the UK but I do remember the last time I was here quite a few of us were in a panic that President Obama was in real danger of losing the election to McCain. I've been told I'm a fair statistician when it comes to reading and predicting poll results so allow me do give a prediction:look for Rasmussen to have President Obama up by (least) 2 points by 26-10!
Check back in a few days. While I can't legally vote in the states I am a big Obama supporter, in more ways than one.

thanks
