McCain pulling even in Missouri and N. Carolina

Politico.com reports that Sen. John McCain is pulling even with Sen. Barack Obama in Missouri and North Carolina, providing further evidence of a tightening race and the ineffectiveness of Obama's 30-minute Oprah-produced infomercial.

These numbers confirm Obama is having trouble closing the deal, the same problem he faced with Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton in the Democratic primaries.

Obama was in Missouri near 10 p.m. CDT last night and CNN provided lengthy free coverage of the speech. McCain could only be so lucky.

Tuesday night is looking to be a long night, not only for us but a cheerleading national news media that has been telling us for the past two weeks that the race is over.
