As pundits and analysts try to diagnose why Barack Obama is not doing better in the polls, a Gallup analysis of data from its tracking polls conducted Aug. 18-24 says one factor is that some conservative Democrats are slipping through Obama's fingers.
Obama's support among liberal and moderate Democrats has been holding pretty steady in the 91 percent and 78 percent range respectively, but his support among those describing themselves as conservative, which reached 72 percent at one point in July, is now 63 percent. The only consolation is that this is a relatively small group in the party.
