The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Saturday shows Barack Obama attracting 50% of the vote while John McCain earns 44%. This six-point advantage matches Obama's biggest lead yet. Obama is now viewed favorably by 56% of voters, McCain by 54%.

Your post proves the weakness of the Obama candidacy. Why did it take him so long to have his biggest lead? The stronger McCain has already reached that height. That demonstrates the superiority of Team McCain.

LOL
Actually I suspect you are right McCain may indeed have had his strongest lead - one he may never see again.
Obama up yet again this morning in the Real Clear Politics "poll of polls" - the average of the major polls. OVER 4% (+4.3%) now and outside the margin of error.

Hmmmm so why is the Real Clear Politics poll so wrong and different from the new Gallup today? That has Obama up 5% and that is a considerable difference from the RCP poll of 4%. It shows the pollsters are trying to manipulate for Obama and can't agree themselves.

The Real Clear Politics value of 4.3% is a AVERAGE of the top polls - including Gallups' 5%.
The fact that it's an AVERAGE gives it far more stability and credence than any one individual poll - even one as well-regarded as Gallup.

This is a great time in the election process to have any lead....Poor guy, I know you wish Team Mcshame should be ahead but the American public is smarter than you give them credit for......Stop your whining..

So you are saying Obama leads in polls that are average and available everywhere and McCain leads in polls that are exceptional and unique. Hmmmm and you want average in your president also?

Exactly the reason I support Obama.
I WANT an ELITE (best of the best) as President.

Welll we need a president who represents the people. In order to win you need a majority of the vote and that means your voters will be average and if you are going to represent them then you should be like them. You may want an elitist like you but like your other elitist candidates he will be overwhelmed by we the average.

Or in the case of the current administration - the below average.

Obama has some clear disadvantages coming into this race. People have always loved McCain of the old days and in comes this youngish blackish man who we know very little about. He had a lot to prove and I believe that he is winning over the majority of Americans finally. I think last night proved that he has what it takes to lead. He was very convincing and I believe he will win.
