Quote:
"Sen. Obama is right back where he was before the so-called convention bounces with a four-point lead. The Democratic discombobulation after the selection of Gov. Palin as GOP running mate seems to be steadying. Women, black voters and young people favor Obama. Men, white voters and Evangelical Protestants pick Sen. McCain," said Maurice Carroll, director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute."But bringing Clinton voters aboard remains a problem for Obama. One in four who voted for Sen. Hillary Clinton in the primaries say they're for McCain now," Carroll added.
"Obama wins the perception war on taxes. About half think McCain's tax plan would favor the rich. More than one half say Obama's tax plan favors the middle class and the poor."
By a 56 - 33 percent margin, American likely voters have a favorable opinion of Obama. McCain gets a 54 - 34 percent favorability.
