Static Race: Obama By 5
The CNN poll, Gallup tracking poll and the latest Ras poll demonstrate a static race - Obama has held a steady 5 point lead now for about a week.
Ras writes:
Those results have been identical for three straight days as the campaign has entered a period of amazing stability. With leaners, Obama has been at 49% for eleven straight days and at either 48% or 49% for twenty straight days.
This looks like a 5 point race to me, all the way to November.

I agree
I don't think the race is static. It has reached a plateau after the bump when Hillary dropped out. As McCain's real positions become known the middle will fall away from him. As he runs to the center to get them back, the base will drop back.
