Then present some evidence supporting your view.

So far, you have only shown a .77 correlation between the economy and McCain's numbers (which actually suggests there are other factors at play, supporting my view, otherwise it would be a 1.0 correlation).

By the way, Intrade now has Obama winning (55.1-41.9 are the prices right now).

Define "good" support, other than that you don't agree.

If McCain can't even win over a board full of Republican social conservatives, you know he's in trouble.

Yet another survey is out indicating increased support for Obama. The chief reason given for people becoming more supportive of Obama? His role in the debates.
