After falling behind by as much as 5% Obama has taken back the lead in today's Gallup tracking poll 47%-45%

there has been a general drift towards Obama since McCain moved to a five-point lead over Obama through the weekend after the GOP convention.
The trend looks awfully encouraging.

Gallup is so biased. They said the race had stablized not but four days ago. Now we have a four point shift.

Also, Diego and Reasearch 2000 daily tracking have Obama both up by +4 .

Thanks I've been waiting for today's Gallup, I predicted a few days ago that Barack would be back on top by Wednesday.

From the link:
It is also worth noting that Gallup tracking shows the percentage of Americans who report being happy without a lot of stress has now fallen to the lowest level measured this year.
It will be interesting to see how things go during the next several weeks.

Hate to break it to you but the State polling lags the National poll. You're just setting yourself up for more frustration.
