McCain Opens 15 point Lead Among Independents

Read it and weep.

What is happening in this campaign is truly absurd. McCain is winning by proclaiming himself a maverick despite the fact that he caved into the entrenched evangelical wing of the Republican Party that the former truly maverick McCain denounced.

Sarah Palin was not John McCain's first choice for the person who should succeed him if needed. He was forced to abandon his preferred veep because the pro-life party establishment made him.

This...is a maverick?

Read the fine print. The MOE on all those polls is +/- 2 points. Not to mention this is a short sample, within the McSame bounce window. Wait until the end of the week when the post-convention crap will have died down, and we'll get a better idea of what the state of the race is.
