3. I have to give Rasmussen credit -- he has had the most stable polling this season

He's become the anti-Zogby.

4. "Nationally, Obama has now been ahead by four-to-eight points every single day for 33 straight days"

"During that 33-day stretch, Obama’s voter support has stayed between 50% and 52% every day while McCain has stayed in the 44% to 46% range."

Still looking stable. It's likely that McCain is not really gaining, but that a big Obama day dropped off on Monday.

5. That's OK--I can live with it. Honest.

5 points is a much bigger popular vote gap than people think--several million votes, actually.

6. In this election, it would be about eight million votes

It would be two and a half times' W's margin over Kerry.

8. That's a workable margin--and it largely prevents McCain from claiming vote fraud.

7. Inside Nugget...

Rasmussen Reports has moved Florida from “Toss-Up” to “Leans Democratic.”

9. I couldn't find anything in there that gave #'s for "other" candidates

I'm curious to see if what sort of undecideds we have out there.

10. I'll take it.

11. Obama holding steady at 50 - 52%

Once Obama remains at 50% and above all is good.

12. As long as we're over 50, we're in good shape.
