1. The distance between them just gets wider and wider.

Obama and McSame couldn't be more different...and America is seeing that for itself!

3. Obama didn't really lose a point in Rasmussen.

I checked out the internals - he lost about .02 percent of the vote from yesterday to today, and that was enough to shave a point off his tracking total (they round).
