According to a new Gallup poll, McCain's favorable rating is the highest its ever been, tying the 67% he reached during his first presidential run in 2000.
After being at 57% toward the beginning of 2007, McCain's campaign had a rough summer and his rating dropped to 41%. His 26-point climb since then has placed him ahead of both Obama and Clinton.
Obama's favorable numbers have remained stable over the last few months, though he reached his all time high this month, by 1 point. Clinton's numbers are the highest they've been since October.
Fav / Unfav
McCain - 67 / 27
Obama - 62 / 33
Clinton - 53 / 44
