Gallup: Obama-Biden Up By 8%

Barack Obama and Joe Biden's post-convention poll bounce appears to be about eight percent, the latest Gallup Tracking Daily poll shows. It was taken before John McCain's surprise announcement on Friday that he's selected Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate.

The new poll shows Obama-Biden at 49 percent, McCain at 41 percent. A previous tracking poll showed the tickets essentially tied at about 42 percent.
