That's why I'm talking about the economy. That's why he's spending these last weeks calling me every name in the book.

49% of voters agree with Obama and blame McCain for the negative tone, while only 18% go the other way.

Murray's entry for best quote by a pollster is this:

To borrow from an old saying about Frank Sinatra, it's Obama's world this year and Frank Lautenberg is lucky to live in it.

Lautenberg leads 50-31, but only 36% view him favorably.  44% have no opinion of him. Zimmer's favorable-unfavorable days before the election is an astonishing 18-8!

There were 801 likely voters in the sample, for an estimated margin of error of 3.5%.
