ABC/WaPo Poll: Obama Ahead Of McCain

Obama 51%
McCain 44%Sample size: 1,122 adults.

But Obama has big majorities on which candidate would bring needed change to Washington (59%-29%), better personality and temperament (56%-32%), better understands people's problems (54%-35%), and has a clearer vision for the future (54%-34%).
