Then and now


Amazing what one night will do. A slew of polls came out today, and Obama's well ahead in all of them. CNN had the two tied at 33 two days ago; today Obama's up 10. Zogby had Clinton up 1 two days ago; today Obama's up 10.

I don't really know how to explain this. Are voters all of a sudden convinced that he might actually be able to win? Were they moved by his victory speech? Are they just lemmings?

Nobody who knows politics has seemed too surprised by Obama's jump since Thursday, but I haven't figured out exactly how to explain it.
