do you have a source or a recent poll that says McCain is currently in the lead?

BBC's US Election polltracker:

You can select to display four different opinion polls (Gallup, Rasmussen, Washington Post, Ipsos).

Would anyone on here vote for McCain (apart from Bagpuss of course)?
Whenever I've seen an American citizen asked why they're voting for McCain the only reason they can come up with is "Obama is a terrorist" or ''Obama is a Muslim".

Apparently that's a good enough reason for many. However, perhaps people just think it's more acceptable to say 'Muslim' than 'Coon'. I think perhaps we should export some of our overly-PC-ness to the USA, who could maybe do with a bit more of it (and we would be well off with a bit less). |

Same here really, maybe even worse - the "ruling party" that forms Govt does not need to get 50% of the vote. |
