Respica te, Hominem te Memento

The One falls to earth.

The latest Fox News/Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in Ohio, finds John McCain out in front of Barack Obama 51% to 44%.

The latest numbers, which are the first to be released since the conclusion of both parties’ conventions, mark an improvement for the Republican nominee. In August, McCain had a slightly more modest advantage over the Democrat. In fact, the GOP hopeful has held a modest lead since July in the swing state that finally decided the 2004 election.

McCain is viewed favorably by 63% of Ohio voters and unfavorably by 35%. Obama’s ratings are 50% favorable, 48% unfavorable.

That isn't good news for the Obama campaign. Neither is this. Or this. And if true, this is really bad news.

And then there's this, via Drudge:

NYT TUESDAY: FAR FROM CERTAIN OBAMA WILL MEET AMBITIOUS FUNDRAISING TARGET... DEVELOPING....
It's still going to be a hard fight to win this election, since Obama and his supporters have shown a rather disturbing eagerness to simply lie about McCain and Palin. Still, I feel better than I did a month ago.

If the Drudge tease is true and Obama is having trouble raising money, it makes the millions he spent on Invesco Field and his own temple seem a bit frivolous, doesn't it?
