One thing I have noticed is that Obama has stopped seeing popularity gains since he won the primary, and I think one of the biggest reasons for this is that he is overexposed in the media and people are starting to get burned out. This is not the biggest problem in the world but it is one of the common problems for why some politicians peak too early ... if the media keeps pushing him as hard as they're he could see a couple of point decline in popularity and it could become hard to get the turn-out he needs to win. |
Welcome to last month. Anyone who has been watching this election closely knows that Obama's lead over McCain has been dwindling ever since the media was accused of being in love with him. They've even went so far as to bring up the "August Slump" that has beleagured so many Democratic nominees in the past.
