On CNN this morning, a Gallup representative said that when their new tracking poll is released today, it will show Obama up by 8 points -- a 3-point jump since yesterday. Bear in mind that these tracking polls use a rolling sample -- 1/3 of each days results is the result of new interviews. A 3-point jump in one day is pretty serious. Note also that this is at a point when the majority of Gallup's tracking sample still had not seen the debate. The full debate impact won't be reflected till Tuesday. ----- Original Message ----- From: john mccutchen To: San Francisco for Obama Sent: Sunday, September 28, 2008 8:50 AM Subject: [SanFranciscoforObama] 2 More Debate Snap Polls

Here's two more insta-polls. First, from MediaCurves, which along with yesterday's insta-poll and focus group summaries show the public (Dems and indies) thought Obama won the debate. Republicans do not matter, at least by themselves (take note, House Republicans.) 57 million people watched the debate.

One more thing. The Pew poll on foreign intervention, including Iraq, was covered here and was an important part of the debate. Anyone watching CNN (with their live graphs of fav/unfav) saw independent and Dem approval go up when Obama said the war was a mistake, and McCain was wrong about it.

The talking heads don't get it, but the voters do. The Surge� is not a winning hand.
