New Poll (referenced by Drudge) has Obama up by 2 points.
They Only Have Obama Up By 2, But Is the Nick Poll As Predictive As It Used To Be?

The Nickelodeon Kids' Poll is one of those polls that is always interesting to keep an eye on. For a long time, the thinking was, kids reflect what they hear from their parents, and the sort of thing they might hear from Mom and Dad are the sorts of things Mom and Dad might not tell a pollster. And in its first four cycles (1988-2000) the poll picked the correct winner.


:rofl:

4. I think the Weekly Reader poll that Obama won with something like 59% is more a bellweather.
