US polls – Whooo-hoooooooo!
Look at these latest tracking poll results for Obama from Political Wire! :
Diageo/Hotline: Obama 46%, McCain 42%
Gallup: Obama 48%, McCain 44%
Research 2000: Obama 49%, McCain 43%
Rasmussen: Obama 48%, McCain 48%
It’s still too close to call

Sarah Palin’s Yahoo account hacked
This is deplorable. Someone has hacked into Sarah Palin’s Yahoo account, which she has been using for some Alaska governor’s business. Political Wire reports on this.

Her account name was apparently gov.sarah@yahoo.com, but this has now been closed.
