To answer the original question - Yes.
IMHO, it is still way too early to make any kind of call. I predict the election will turn on a UFO. What?? Martians deciding the election? No. The UFO term coined by Tom Brokaw. The UnForseen Occurence. Something that, for now obviously, is unforeseen. Maybe a change in the states quo in Iraq. (A big surge by Al-Qaida would lend credence to McCain.) Maybe a health issue by either candidate. (Obama has been a smoker his entire life.) More likely a verbal gaffe at an inappropriate time. (Who can forget Howard Dean's meltdown.)
You can be sure that if either party has any serious dirt on the other you won't hear about it until the end. This is the ultimate high stakes poker game and everybody knows you play your cards close and don't play your hole card until the end.
I've voted in every election since 1976 and this should be the most interesting yet.
