and Rasmussen has Obama by 3, and the latest USA Today/Gallup poll has McCain up by 4 for the same dates as the Gallup poll that had Obama up by 8. Likely voters v. registered voters, today v. yesterday, etc. The polls aren't a perfect indicator of what will happen at election time, but I'd bet big that Obama wanted a bigger bump in those polls than he got, and that the McCain camp is pretty happy with them, considering the press coverage of the world tour.
