Rasmussen: Hillary down 5 points, both Obama and Edwards up 3 since Iowa Sunday debate

Clinton was at 43% on August 19th, and is at 38% today. Obama was at 23% on August 19th, and is at 26% today while Edwards was at 12% on August 19th and is at 15% today.

Are we perhaps seeing the beginning of a trend?

1. The poll's margin of error is +/- 4 . There may be a story here;

but it's just as likely there isn't.

2. Yeah. We need more data.

And let's keep in mind it's still what, 5 months? The race won't be won or lost in a weekend.

5. Yes and daily tracking polls are more volatile then the 5 day average.

4. The week after the debate dealing the foreign leaders, Hillary rose 5pts to 45%

The daily tracking poll will tend to be a little more volatile then the 5 day average.
