OBAMA & McCain - The Lesser of Two Evils

A New York Times/CBS poll conducted among the same respondents before the first debate -- and then after the last one -- shows that Obama’s favorability rating increased while McCain’s declined. “As voters have gotten to know Senator Barack Obama, they have warmed up to him, with more than half, 53 percent, now saying they have a favorable impression of him and 33 percent saying they have an unfavorable view. But as voters have gotten to know Senator John McCain, they have not warmed, with only 36 percent of voters saying they view him favorably while 45 percent view him unfavorably.”
