I think if the bracket is going to be longer than the sentence it's attached to, best just to unbracket it and let it be its own sentence. It's interesting that now the election is its the closing weeks, that Obama is stronger precisely because of his policies. Whereas McCain is drowning us in rhetoric and personality attacks, Obama is seen as the better choice for his economic policies. The shine hasn't exactly worn off either - an international poll made headlines recently by showing that support for Obama is almost unanimous worldwide. It's not a predictable scenario though. I think it's down partly to the Obama campaign taking advantage of the economic issues to showcase his domestic policy strength. And of course because McCain seems to be dangerously unstable these days. Btw, you forgot to close a bracket somewhere up there.
