Obama and McCain Battle For the White House
Growing Doubts About McCain’s Judgment, Age and Campaign Conduct
Section 1: The Obama-McCain Matchup
Barack Obama leads John McCain not only in overall support but also in the intensity of his support. A sizable plurality of 45% says they are voting for Obama and that there is no chance they will vote for McCain. McCain’s “certain” support is much smaller: just 32% are certain to vote for him. Similarly, 36% say they strongly back Obama, while just 21% strongly support McCain.
