Race Continues to Tighten - Zogby: 49% to 46% - Obama only plus 3

Fundy handles the polling posts, so please do not expect much from me.
“There is no question that this race continues to tighten and that McCain is finding his message again,” said Pollster John Zogby. “It is after all about the economy and that is how McCain tightened it up the last time. I have said over and over again, when he focuses on extraneous issues, he screws up. In today's single day of polling, it was 49% to 46% in favor of Obama. McCain has moved his own numbers each of the three days and Obama has gone down from 54% to 50% to 49%. I have alluded before to this strange, magnetic pull that brings Obama down to 48% or 49%, a danger zone for him. McCain's gains are among white voters, where he now leads by 12 points, and with men, where he again has a healthy lead. There is still a lot of campaign to go. A lot of campaign to go.”

In other polls:

Wow. Ignorance is bliss, but what's your excuse going to be on election day? ACORN? Nice try. GOP attacks on valid voters are more of a concern.

I like Bush = Willful Ignorance.
I like McCain = I like Bush.
