Poll: Town Hall Made Undecideds Swing To Obama

Washington, DC â€“ A new Ipsos/McClatchy poll of undecided voters who watched last nightâ€™s second Presidential debate indicates that Barack Obama seems to be picking up momentum among the small number of voters who have not yet decided on a candidate.

Before the debate, these undecided voters leaned toward John McCain (Obama 45%/McCain 55%) â€“ but after last nightâ€™s debate, nearly six in ten lean toward supporting Obama (Obama 57%/McCain 43%).

I’m honestly surprised to see that Americans thought he won it hands down. I mean, I certainly thought he certainly won, but not by the margins we’re consistently seeing.
