The utter silliness of daily tracking polls...
 

From Gallup:

Gallup Daily: Obama Moves Ahead, 48% to 42%
Democratic candidate gains in Monday through Wednesday interviewing

PRINCETON, NJ -- Democratic candidate Barack Obama has gained ground in
the latest Gallup Poll Daily tracking average from Monday, Tuesday, and
Wednesday, and now leads Republican John McCain among registered voters
by a 48% to 42% margin.



Yesterday it was even or a one point spread...today...this.

Absurd.

*Daily* tracking polls are worthless.

Rasmussen, another daily tracker, shows a one point spread, but it did
not poll Wednesday, and only two thirds of its daily "poll-ees" were
contacted after Michelle Obama spoke at the convention. How many of
those heard Ms. Obama? Who the hell knows?

If you want some polls that are a bit more accurate, look to the
non-national state by state polls.
