Now that the polls say "McCain / Palin" vs "Obama / Biden" it may seem closer

because Palin props up McCain's numbers BUT will those who love Palin or kind of like her and who don't like McCain actually be able to pull the lever for McCain or even get up off their ass and wait in line for two hours and vote?

I bet if you had a poll now that just said "McCain" vs. "Obama" Obama would be leading by 9 or 10 points, by adding Palin's name McCain gets a small boost that is probably overblown. I seriously don't think as many people will come out to vote for VP as the polls would indicate.

I also think Obama is about to pull back ahead regardless of Palin being on McCain's ticket.
