At the same time, the liberal group MoveOn.org has been sending around e-mails with the apparently false claim that Sarah Palin, McCain's running mate, supported Buchanan in the 2000 election. (She wore a Buchanan button when he visited Alaska but says she never backed him.) All the money and outside effort has a single goal: reaching voters where the candidates have not.

McCain proves popular with white voters across the board, consistent with the early September findings. He is especially popular among white men, although Obama holds a seven point lead among all men in Pennsylvania. Meanwhile, the new poll suggests that the appeal of McCain's running mate Sarah Palin may not be as much of a game changer as some believed a month ago.
