Polls! Obama UP

Today's Washington Post has Obama up by nine points nationwide with 52% of people saying they will vote for him in the presidential elections. It will be very interesting to see what effect the debate has on these numbers next week. In the meantime, it looks like the economy is taking its toll on John McCain, whose naked hypocrisy on issues like deregulation is making voters realize he is not the man to lead our country through this economic crisis.
