,,,the Times/CBS News poll suggested that Ms. Palin’s selection has,
to date, helped Mr. McCain only among Republican base voters; there
was no evidence of significantly increased support for him among women
in general. White women were evenly divided between Mr. McCain and Mr.
Obama; before the conventions, Mr. McCain led Mr. Obama among white
women, 44 percent to 37 percent.
