Zogby Poll Shows Obama Free Fall

Zogby International has a new poll out which should give the Obama campaign several reasons to worry.

Since July, Obama has lost support amongst women, young people, Democrats, independents, and Catholics. The biggest changes include a 36 point turnaround amongst voters under 30 away from Barack, while McCain gains 26 points with Catholics.

The big picture shows a virtual dead heat. With a 10 point July lead and Barry's big adventure to the Middle-East, one might expect the opposite result in the polls. The Democrat convention is just weeks away, yet voters are showing a bit of Barry fatigue.

How many Democrat super delegates are re-thinking their pending votes? It's not too late you know.

Big Picture Numbers
