If there's any lingering doubt about the initial wave of enthusiasm following Sarah Palin's additional to the Republican vice presidential ticket, check out this post from Patrick Ruffini over at The Next Right:

A source inside the McCain campaign confirms a massive online fundraising haul since Sarah Palin was named as the VP -- $4.5 million in the first 24 hours, part of a $7 million overall fundraising burst.

There's other good post-Palin news for McCain as well. I don't put much stock in Zogby polls anymore, but today's shows McCain taking a two-point lead over Obama. the much more reliable Gallup daily tracking poll on our Poll Tracker site shows Obama with a six point edge.
