The national polls are important, but not as important as state polls. Obama is leading McCain in states like Florida, Ohio, PA, MI, and it is very close in states like North Carolia and Virgina. There is a very good chance that if these polls hold true, Obama will win in a landslide. Obama could even wrap up the election by Midnight EST., with well over 300 EV.

Just so nobody here says I am using a "liberally biased" site, here's the latest Fox report showing Obama moving ahead significantly in the battleground states:

Here's a list of the latest polls:

Thanks so much. You saved me the time posting that information. Fox News too! Oh boy, I am sure Fox hated to release those polls. I guess some people don't watch TV as they have repeated over and over that Obama is up in almost all the battleground states. I am sure McCain pulling out in MI is suppose to mean McCain is doing well in the polls there too. McCain Pulls Out of Michigan | The Trail | washingtonpost.com

Wow, these people need to some reality checks. Don't ya just love facts!
