Dear God, the floor keeps dropping out from underneath McCain:

National Poll Differentials:

Newsweek (Obama +11)
ABC/Post (Obama +10)
Democracy Corps (Obama +10)
Research 2000 (Obama +10)
Battleground (Obama +13)
Gallup (Likely Voters II Model) (Obama +10)

And today, a new CBS/New York Times poll puts it at Obama +14 head to head (+12 with third party candidates).

I will make no bones about who I support in this election. But I kept looking at the numbers and saying they have to start "regressing to the mean" at some point. Sooner or later, Obama has to mis-step, or McCain has to come up with an effective way to plink away at Obama's support.

That's not happening. The floor keeps dropping out.. Could we legitimately see a 60/40 election win? Could it be the Democrat mandate with a filibuster proof 60 senators? (odds are apparently 3 in 10).

I can't believe it, and I won't believe it till it actually happens. At some point this race HAS to tighten, doesn't it?
