Newsweek Poll: Obama Way Out In Front

The global financial crisis has caused a dramatic shift in the latest Newsweek poll. With four weeks left in the presidential campaign, Sen. Barack Obama now leads Sen. John McCain by double digits, 52% to 41%, among registered voters.

Just a month ago, the same poll showed the race tied.

Key findings: "Underlying Obama's surge in support: An historic boiling over of dissatisfaction with the status quo. An astounding 86% of voters now say they are dissatisfied with the way things are going in the United States, while a mere 10% say they are satisfied. That's the highest wrong track/right track ratio ever recorded in the Newsweek poll."

Gallup has Obama 9 ahead. McCain gained one point.

the right/wrong track numbers are really interesting.

But after this last week of markets in freefall and trillions of dollars lost, can we agree that those 10 percent who think we are on the right track are just too stupid to vote?

10%? Who knew there were that many lobbyists and CEOs? Feh!
