Here's the latest average of polls.
So no folks, McCain is not 10 points ahead like written on other threads.
When it comes to Obama and McCain, there is over 6% of voters who are undecided. That puts them in a statiscal dead heat.

And remember, it's only March!

Rassumssen Polls, who IMHO is about the least politically biased has Obama at 41% and McCain at 50% ... not exactly a dead heat.

Well...not extacly. RCP has all polls averaged in. Includes CBS, CNN, USA/Gallop and many others. You don't want to focus on just one poll. I have found that poll (Rassumssen) to always be way off this whole political season. Always with giving someone some crazy lead that never materialized.

On the contrary, Rasmussen has a reputation of leaning Republican. So, their head to head polls have to be taken with a grain of salt.

Between the Democrats reminding me of Monty Python's Life of Brian, "Crack suicide squad", and McCain reminding me of Jack Nicholson in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest after the lobotomy, I guess I will just wait until the Nov. 4th poll is in.

After nearly 8 years of Bush it's quite tragic that most Americans still want a Republican in the White House. So are Americans really very eager to forgive Bush and his Republican supporters for all the mistakes they made beginning with the execution of the war in Iraq?

I don't think he needs forgiveness for Iraq. Hide sight is twenty-twenty. I will vote for McCain over both Democrats. In the future Bush may be blamed for not being tough enough on terror. I think Bush has shown great resolve. Although i do disagree with his stance on immigration. Democrats offer a whimpy stance on foreign affairs and a free give away program at our expense at home. Nothing new from them. They offer Hope that my taxes will go up and change from a nation that has displayed courage to a nation that displays how to give up when the going gets tough. My vote will go to McCain.
