The first poll out of WV for the nomination, Rasmussen shows Clinton with a 55-27 percent lead over Obama. The primary is not until May 13th. This is the second poll I've seen recently that shows the "Economy/Jobs" issue going over 50 percent as the number one problem to solve. Here's some more:
Clinton is viewed favorably by 72% of West Virginia's Primary Voters, Obama by 53%.


By a 48% to 31% margin, the West Virginia voters believe Clinton will be the stronger general election candidate against John McCain. However, by a 47% to 35% margin, they believe Obama will win the nomination. Even 32% of Clinton voters expect Obama to be the Democratic nominee in 2008.



If Obama is nominated, just 42% of Clinton supporters say they are even somewhat likely to vote for him against McCain. Eighteen percent (18%) of Clinton voters say that they are Not Very Likely to vote for Obama and 35% say they are Not at All Likely to vote for Obama. On the other hand, if Clinton is nominated, 57% of Obama voters are at least somewhat likely to vote for the former First Lady.

Rasmussen has more on the state of the contest today.

Anyone now supporting either Clinton or Obama who ends up voting for McCain is a fool. Complete and total fools who ought to be ashamed of themselves. Isn't 4,000 dead soldiers and a million dead Iraqis enough for them?

There's a real debate going on and passions are heated. Nothing to fear. We're not zombies like the rightists.

to overturn the actual results of primaries already held.

and that was before this Wright controversy. They tend to be sort of conservative.

On the other hand, I had run into a lifelong Rep. who said he was voting for Obama - that was BEFORE the Wright controversy, however. His wife was sort of leaning Clinton. It is a crazy political landscape.
