He might not have won at all.  Keep in mind that McCain was leading nearly every poll between the RNC and the financial crisis.

A look here shows that Obama started inching back ahead on September 10th, which was five days before the Lehman collapse. 
When the Lehman collapse broke, McCain was still leading in every poll.
