(CNN) – The race for the White House remains virtually neck-and-neck, according to CNN’s latest poll of polls.
For the first time since September 7, Sen. Barack Obama is ahead of Sen. John McCain in CNN’s national poll of polls. Obama has the support of 46 percent of registered voters compared to 45 percent for McCain, while nine percent are unsure about their choice for president. In Tuesday’s CNN poll of polls, the two men were tied at 46 percent each.
“The presidential race has been a virtual dead heat since the end of the conventions,” noted CNN Senior Political Researcher Alan Silverleib. “At the moment, the McCain and Obama campaigns’ advertising strategies appear to be cancelling each other out. What we can’t yet measure, however, is the impact of the crisis on Wall Street. Economic issues favor Obama, but voters tend to support McCain more in terms of overall leadership and crisis management. The bottom line is that, with 48 days to go, this race is a toss-up.”
Wednesday’s poll of polls is comprised of the following four national general election surveys: IPSOS-McClatchy (September 11-15), Gallup (September 14-16), Diageo/Hotline (September 14-16), and American Research Group (September 13-15). The poll of polls does not have a sampling error.

These are McCain's exact words: "The issue of economics is not something I've understood as well as I should," McCain said. "I've got Greenspan's book." That's very scary.
Palin will officially be chargedwith abuse of power...
She fired the poor trooper, because he wouldn't fire her ex-brother in law...
Now Republicans in Alaska are trying to block this investigation after already agreed on 10/10 date
The big prize "Texas" will turn Blue this election. Just watch...
Obama/ Biden 08
Obama/ Hillary 12
Finally! The American public is waking up to the truth and realizing all the lies told by the McCain/Palin ticket. THANK GOD!!! (right, Sarah?!)
I am not sure where these polls are being taken and by whom and to whom, but I am sure that they are not polling young people and cell phone users cannot be polled unless permission is given because it is illegal.
Most persons under the age of 35 do not have land lines. The majority of persons 35 and under that will vote and please vote will be for Senator Obama.
Don't let us down young persons, register and vote.
Check and Balance
Split ticket Democrat
why palin? not romney
look OBAMA will take on Mcdrill and its in the bag Obama will be our next president and mark my words he will be on the greates president will ever have. oBAma/Biden --BIDEN/Obama 08!!!!!!!!!!
These two losing candidates are WITHIN THE MARGIN OF ERROR people. The polls only are saying that the American public is UNDECIDED.
Most people I talk to hate both choices and will either write in a candidate or will vote for a third party...
'nuf said? Neither candidate is offering solutions BEFORE the meltdowns. Oh, NOW they want to talk economy, bailouts and finance AFTER the most recent bailout. They don't want to explain how taking more of our tax money and giving it to these big corporations is really going to help us. Rather, they both are advocating programs to increase debt and ultimately our taxes!!!
Hillary is a pig in lipstick, she is no Palin. We don't need these stupid Hillary supporters to win this election.
Palin 2012,16
Notice all of the new voters being registered. Who do you think they are votting for? I would like to think people with an open mind will see what is really happening and vote for Obama.
Do your research and see what is going on and who is causing the problems. Research what the candidates really do and what they stand for.
I can't believe the fact that Palin is refusing to comply with an investigation.. suing the investigators, refusing to answer subpoenas is not having more of an effect on the polls.
A third of a B I L L I O N dollars doesn't buy as much as it used to!!!
HA HA HA.
PUMA!!!
What a joke... CNN is trying harder and harder to push his candidate NOBAMA (he is a big joke for america) up in polls when polls all over except CNN shows still McCain up. These bunch of NOBAMA lovers here are cheering for this wrong news. LOL ..dunno how long this joke is going to continue...
