Friday polling includes the Wednesday Palin speech but not Thursday McCain snoozer. Gallup had already shown a bigger Obama bounce than McCain is seeing, but there was a convention delay due to Gustav.
Numbers are Fri (Thurs) (Wed). Compare last week, the Friday after the Dem convention.
There was a +5 swing for Obama last week and a +3 for McCain this week if one compares day-to-day-to-day. The maximum Obama Rasmussen bounce wasn’t seen until four days later (this Tuesday).

Dem Convention Obama 49 (47) (46) McCain 45 (47) (47)
Gallup : By last Friday, Obama was already moving up +7 from the 45-44 the Tues prior. This week, McCain is so far +2 from the Wed prior. The maximum Gallup for Obama was 5 days later (this Wed).

The “big state” mythFrom: americannonsense.com Post Date: 2008-03-04 13:55:22 (Bumped. Susan)
WellstoneDem in the comments of a previous post:
2 voted but there was no campaign: MI and FL
5 haven’t voted yet: TX, OH, PA, IN, and NC
5 have voted for Obama: IL, WA, MO, VA, and GA

The whole “Big State” thing is a myth.
Yeah, there’s some stupid spin floating around (from all sides) this cycle, but this is probably the dumbest. And it’s compounded by people wh... more  AP story: Deletion a proxy for correction?From: americannonsense.com Post Date: 2008-03-04 13:55:21 Yesterday, I noted an AP story on the recent contempt of Congress vote that, well… had a few problems.
In the least troubling of the errors, the reporter — Laurie Kellman — misidentified Rep. Jon Porter (R-NV) as a Democrat.
OK, not such an awful mistake. At least, not by itself. And the AP’s Director of Media Relations, Paul Colford, e-mailed to point out that the AP had in fact already put out a corrected version of the article.
But Kellman didn’t... more  Midday open threadFrom: americannonsense.com Post Date: 2008-03-04 13:55:20
Tonight’s schedule, with pledged delegates in parenthesis):
Vermont (15), 7 p.m. ET
Ohio (141), 7:30 p.m. ET
Rhode Island (21) 9 p.m. ET
Texas (193) 9 p.m. ET, but El Paso is in a different time zone, so closes an hour later. And, to make things extra complicated, the caucuses begin after the polls close.
Vermont will get called quickly for Obama. The rest should take a while to report winners. And Texas, sheesh, that one will be conf... more  Pushing Clinton from the raceFrom: americannonsense.com Post Date: 2008-03-04 13:55:19 The Obama campaign may be planning ahead (something the Clinton campaign never thought of, apparently), but it’s clear that they’re also paving the way for a serious push to knock Clinton out of the race this week.
First off is the developing CW , from the very astute Charlie Cook:
NBC political analyst Charlie Cook writes in his CongressDaily column, “[W]inning by slight percentages in Texas and Ohio aren’t real wins for Clinton. A ‘win’ would... more
