Over
the past five days, Obama's lead has been between three and five
percentage points each day. That's a bit tighter than the four to eight
point margins enjoyed by the Democrat for the previous month (see trends).
The tightening comes entirely from McCain solidifying his support. The
Arizona Senator has reached the 47% mark on two of the past three days.

ground.This is the 36th straight day that Obama’s support has been
between 50% and 52%.
Obama is now viewed favorably by 54% of voters nationwide, McCain by 53%
