This Labor Day began with Hurricane Gustav, and ends with Hurricane Sarah. The lead story on the ABC News website at 9 p.m. eastern time concerns Governor Palin's membership in the AIP, which is the real Palin story that deserves our attention rather than all these sorrowful domestic issues in the Palin family. But let's end this celebration of the American labor force with the fact that a new poll just released has Barack Obama at 50%, a magic number, in the polls!
According to the just released USAToday/Gallup poll, "Obama Leads By Seven Points" and has reached 50%. We are truly on our way. The full poll data are here. As we pray for our brothers and sisters in the Gulf Coast, let us also have hope.
