Poll: Obama Maintains Double-Digit Lead (CBS) - 52-39 - Obama +13!!
(CBS) With just twelve days left until Election Day, Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama holds a 13-point lead over Republican rival John McCain, a new CBS News/New York Times poll shows.

Obama now leads McCain 52 percent to 39 percent among likely voters nationwide, roughly the same lead he held last week. Just five percent are undecided, and more than 9 in 10 of each candidate’s supporters say their mind is made up.

10. Anything over 8 point lead is likely a blowout EV victory.
Good poll: Just conducted October 19-22, 2008. Standard land-lines and cell phones.

18. It is tightening - there's not much room between McCain's numbers and zero

It's getting pretty tight at the bottom.

Pretty. Tight. Bottom.
