Huffpollstrology: Candidates' Horoscopes, Polls And More For July 24

Polls have come to dominate the media's horse race coverage of political campaigns. Pundits and reporters constantly use them to tell us who's hot and who's not -- but skip over the fact that plummeting response rates and variables like undecided voters and margins of error and often render these polls useless as anything other than lightweight diversions on par with horoscopes and political betting lines. Our HuffPollstrology chart helps keep you up to date on the latest poll results, along with the latest horoscope predictions, and the latest online political betting lines - and will hopefully help the polling junkies in the media keep polls in the proper perspective.

Mccain vs obama in the General election
mccain	42% Gallup Daily	VIRGO August 29, 1936 The assistance you give your friends might remind you of a passion you once shared - and could do again. There may be many moments when you feel you can't speak (for fear of betraying too much emotion). The renovation of an area could be high priority. It's possible also that you'll be talking to financial experts, possibly in relation to a sale, or even to changing bank. Of top priority to you could be ensuring that a safety net is put into place.	31.7% chance of winning
obama	46% Gallup Daily	LEO August 4, 1961 It might seem that someone close is more tuned in to the universe than you. That may be because they're dealing with powerful emotions. All this though could cause you to think about the after-life, your ancestors and even your own legacy. Memories could be dictating the pace. At times you might even feel overwhelmed and paralysed. It's possible that the cost of preserving something you've cherished is wholly unrealistic though. You might need to let this go and view the act as making space for something new and, eventually, equally memorable.	65.1% chance of winning
