I'm curious to know what sources people are using to track this Presidential election. For the record here are mine (no ranking used)

National Public Radio
Yahoo News
YouTube (to watch the debates and speeches)
NBC Meet the Press podcast
The Economist
BusinessWeek
The New Republic
National Review

Mostly Raw Story & Huffington Post. I also like to read The Rude Pundit's blog for political laughs.

NPR
Pacifica Radio
CNN
The Economist
ThinkProgress
Firedoglake
Daily Kos

For shits and giggles I'd check out Freerepublic every now and then, but I gave up after they went apeshit over McCain gaining ground. I knew there was no reasoning with those people to begin with, but that was the final nail in the coffin.

Slate has often excellent analysis. For example:

The Economist is the greatest value, in terms of information, of any magazine in the world. The December Special Issue had probably 40 articles that were really, really good.

Drudgereport gives me a good overview
CNN gives me delegates
digg.com gives me insane liberal bias
and when I want to reference speeches or debates I use YouTube (There are filtered videos on YouTube that edit out unfavorable comments from certain candidates, you gotta be careful which ones you pick)

BBC World Service
Bitch PhD
and whatever links the lot of you post on here (unless they're to the Freepers - I can't deal with that)

http://www.pollster.com/

This site has the best coverage of all the election polls, creating graphs that incorporate data via a meta-analysis of every poll conducted and takes into account who is doing the polling, where it is being conducted, how many people were polled, etc.
