Well, you can save yourself alot of aggravation by realizing that polls are snapshots in time the results of which can persist, but only if the basis for poll responses persists.
Pretty much.
Obama is 51% at Gallup. We've got 6 months to go (and those will be a loooooong 6 fucking months), but considering the unemployment rate and Europe and facing now the most "electable" Republican...not bad.
If Santorum or NEWT(!) had been the nominee, Obama's % would've been at least 55%.
