I guess Obama is lucky it's called the presidential race and not the "commander-in-chief race":

McCain Tops Obama in Commander-in-Chief Test; Stays Competitive on Iraq
Poll Finds 72 Percent of Americans Say McCain Would be Good Commander-in-Chief.

With these kind of numbers all Bush needs to do to get McCain elected is start another war somewhere else in late Oct or early Nov.

Poll: Obama isn't closing racial divide
Blacks, whites hold vastly different views of the state of race relations
about 30 percent of white voters said they had a favorable opinion of him (Obama).

And something seems fishy about these poll numbers - I haven't really looked hard at the numbers but it seems that only 30% of white's having a favorable opinion of Obama would not be enough to give him the kind of numbers he has in other polls?
Then again maybe they don't have a favorable opinion of Obama but would still vote for him over McCain?
