Here are today's numbers:
| Obama | McCain | |
| Diageo/Hotline | 45 | 44 |
| Gallup | 52 | 41 |
| Rasmussen Reports | 51 | 45 |
| Research 2000/dKos | 51 | 41 |
| Average: | 49.75 | 42.75 |
These numbers represent the baseline coming into last night, with presumably all, or virtually all, of the interviews upon which the data above having been conducted prior to the debate. When you throw in the Battleground tracker (.pdf), which shows Barack Obama leading 49 percent to 45 percent, and the McClatchy/Ipsos poll, which shows Obama up 47 percent to 40 percent, into the mix, today's overall average stands at 49.2 percent to 42.7 percent.
I'm about to board a plane back to Portland to be with family for Yom Kippur (to those observing the holiday tonight and tomorrow, have an easy fast), so this might be my only post today. So feel free to also consider this an open thread... What's on your mind?
And as a special bonus before I get on the plane, here's a link to the Maron v. Seder online radio show, which streams live at 3 PM Eastern/12 PM Pacific. Today's guest: Sarah Silverman (oy, I hate to miss the show!).
