Barack Obama's support has significantly risen in Florida -- a place where John McCain is thought to have an advantage -- to the point where he's taken the lead in a new poll.
The latest numbers from Public Policy Polling (D) (http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/pdf/PPP_Release_Florida701.pdf): Obama 46%, McCain 44%, within the ±3.6% margin of error. In their last poll from March -- taken right in the middle of the first Jeremiah Wright controversy -- Obama trailed 50%-39%.
For now, the polls are mixed (http://tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com/polltracker/flpres/) on Florida. PPP, Quinnipiac and ARG have given Obama a narrow lead, while Rasmussen puts McCain ahead.
