And yet...another poll

A new poll was released by St. Norbert College Survey Center showing Obama with a lead of 51 percent to McCain;s 38 percent. The poll of 400 likely voters was taken from October 9 until October 17. There is a margin of error of +/- 5 points. 

McCain did better when it came to the Iraq war and national security, but Obama did better when it came to health care, taxes, the economy, energy, dealing with financial crisis, bringing change to Washington, understanding what's important to average Americans and handling "an unexpected major crisis." 

56 percent of voters said they don't think Sarah Palin has what it takes to be president, while 70 percent said they believed Joe Biden does have what it takes to be president.

8 percent said the country is going in the right direction.
