OBAMA PLUMMETS IN NEWSWEEK POLL:

Last month, Newsweek’s poll surprised many by showing a huge gap between Barack Obama and John McCain, with the Democratic nominee-apparent enjoying a 15-point lead over the Republican. One month later, Obama has lost all of the momentum and has dropped into a virtual tie with McCain. The latest Newsweek poll shows Obama up 44-41, within the margin of error.

This is probably just evidence that the last poll had serious problems, but stay tuned -- Obama's fundraising is down, too, so I suppose it's possible that he may be losing some of his gloss.
