From RCP:
National Gallup Tracking Obama 50, McCain 42 Obama +8
National Rasmussen Tracking Obama 51, McCain 45 Obama +6
National USA Today/Gallup* Obama 50, McCain 43 Obama +7
National Hotline/FD Obama 48, McCain 39 Obama +9
National CBS News Obama 48, McCain 40 Obama +8
These are after the Palin announcement and the trend is moving upward since the Palin announcement. I don't think it is bad for him at all as Obama is very qualified and this is highlighting that. Couple that with the clear case of better judgment than McCain and Obama has a winning case. The whole Palin fiasco is turning into people asking "Does McCain lack judgement?". McCain can decide who is the most qualified person to be President should he die in a 15 minute interview with someone he knew nothing about just because he felt she was his "sole mate"? McCain continues to show is lack of judgment with this decision and it is hurting him.
