He wasn't, quite the opposite. Yes he was close in the Summer, but that was before Palin and the RNC Bump faded.

IIRC, he led McCain generously during the primaries and then the recession happened and he was given double digits.

He should've flipped Missouri (especially Missouri), Georgia, and Montana along with everything else, and it didn't happen.
