A majority = 50 + 1 !!!!!!

So I keep hearing everyone talk about how much farther ahead Obama is in the presidential race and I dont get it! To win the presidency you need a simple majority. A smiple majority is always equal to 50% plus one more vote. Just a note for all of you who think that Obama is soooo far ahead of McCain. Only twice in all the VALID (Gallop or Rasmusssen) polling done between the two candidates has Obama managed to reach 50% and NEVER has he topped 50% ! So I say to the democrats don't count your chickens before they hatch!!!
