New USA Today/Gallup poll on 2008 (September 7-8, 425 GOP LV, 500 Dem LV). On the Democratic side, Clinton's big lead remains unchanged:

Clinton 45 (-3 vs. last poll August 13-16)
Obama 24 (-1)
Edwards 16 (+3)
Biden 3 (+2)
Richardson 2 (nc)
Undecided 5 (-1)
In a two person race between Clinton and Obama, Clinton wins by 31 points, 63-32. Clinton leads by 16.7% in the RCP Average for the Democratic nomination.
On the Republican side, everyone ticked up except Mitt Romney:

Giuliani 34 (+2 vs. August 13-16)
Thompson 22 (+3)
McCain 15 (+4)
Romney 10 (-4)
