It's Zogby!

At least it's not Zogby Interactive.  Let's see what special sauce Zogby brings to the table this year.

Obama 47% (-1)
McCain 45% (nc)
(Poll taken October 5-7)

ItsaZogby!

Actually, Zogby thinks he's so special that he can tell us the results to the nearest tenth:
Obama 47.1% (-0.6)
McCain 45.2% (-0.1)
Others/Not sure 7.7% (+0.7)

Thursday - October 9, 2008:

Obama: 48% (+1)
McCain: 44% (-1)

Conducted Oct. 6-8, 2008, 400 LV each day

Obama is winning 86% of the Democratic Party support and McCain is winning 87% of the Republican Party support – but Obama has the edge among independent voters. He leads McCain among independents, 48 to 35%, which represents a gain for Obama. This could be significant for Obama if it holds up through Election Day, because independents represent 26% of the national electorate.

lol. The term "lol" really does sum things up nicely.

Not quite.  Zogby's special sauce allows him to divine the race to the nearest tenth:

Obama 47.8% (+0.7)
McCain 44.2% (-1.0)
Others/Not sure 8.0% (+0.3)

Zogby is specialer than all other pollsters.

This is a really sh**t poll. Well, not necessarily the poll, I have no real problem with the numbers, but the commentary on the site is a joke, trying to make news out of the tiniest bit of tracking poll noise:

10/13/2008 - Obama's lead declines
10/12/2008 - The Democratic nominee makes a move as his Republican opponent slips

It's Zogby.  If you're expecting insightful commentary on a credible poll, I suggest you look elsewhere.
