McCain - 46%
Obama - 45%

When likely voters were asked who they figure is responsible for the current financial state on Wall Street, 41 percent blamed the Republicans, 16 percent tagged the Democrats, 27 percent said neither, and 16 percent couldn't decide who to blame.

600 likely voters were surveyed Wednesday through Sunday night.

Why is Suffolk polling Nevada?

Well, it's more meaningful than polling Massachusetts.  But they'd probably have more credibility polling New Hampshire.

Does it really matter? A phone call's a phone call, whether it's coming from Massachusetts or Nevada.

Who is picked to be called is the significant part.

Does Suffolk have any experience polling Nevada, a notoriously difficult place to poll?  That's the real question.  It's not like polling New Hampshire, which Suffolk has extensive experience doing during the primaries every 4 years.  I'd be more willing to trust their New Hampshire polling than Nevada.
