People are reading polls as though they are some sort of concrete truth. As long as they are within or near the margin of error, they are as effective as so many charts and graphs used to pick stocks.

As candidates get vetted (and it is finally happening to Obama as well), people will be able to make more informed choices. What matters in this game is the score at the end, but the game already turned decisively last week. It was turning before that, just not quite as quickly.

Speaking of vetting, this from the UK is interesting:

Some random tidbits about Mrs Palin; make of them what you will:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/co ... id=topnews

Billing the taxpayers for sleeping in her own bed and eating in her own dining room... sounds a bit like pork, or maybe even fraud. Also sounds a lot like "same politics, different name."

http://www.cqpolitics.com/wmspage.cfm?d ... 24&cpage=1

Good review of the bridge to nowhere. Not sure what to really make of this. It was clearly a pork barrel project that Palin supported, campaigned in favor of, but eventually axed. The state did use the money for other transportation needs, eventually.

http://www.crosscut.com/politics-government/17341

A rather scathing review of Palin's executive skills in Wasilla. Written by an individual, so credibility may be lacking.

Whatever you think of polls, McCain got some good news after the convention - bumps that put him in a 2sigma lead in Ohio, and stastical ties in FL and CO.

Remember, the national polls mean absolutely nothing. We do not have a national election for president.

Does anyone else think that Palin looks like Elaine from Seinfeld?
