Error: Unable to create directory /home/demockra/public_html/wp-content/uploads/2010/09. Is its parent directory writable by the server? Tracking Poll Update: Obama +7

Election Day is exactly two weeks away, and Senator Obama has a solid seven point advantage in the composite of the tracking polls. The mainstream media is trying desperately to push a “McCain surge” narrative (close race = ratings). However, the raw numbers don’t show much of a narrowing at all. In fact, the race looks very stable between Obama +6 and Obama +7 over the past week to ten days. Yes, that’s off Obama’s high of +8-9 points of two weeks ago, but a solid lead nonetheless.
