The "tightening race" narrative might have some very, very, very thin validity, but not really.
Today's Gallup poll widened in favor of Obama. 52-43, as opposed to 51-44 yesterday. R2000 also widened in favor of Obama. 50-42 today, 50-43 yesterday. And Obama expanded his lead from three points to six points according to Zogby. 50-44 today, 48-45 yesterday.
Only two polls showed any tightening -- and just barely. Rasmussen tightened. 50-46 today. 51-45 yesterday. Hotline also tightened. 47-42 today. 48-41 yesterday.
It's all just a home stretch wobble -- definitely not a scary trend. However, I still believe the other McCain Fear-Mongering shoe has yet to drop.
