3. These polls scare me. I am just amazed ANY Dem isn't always 20-30% ahead of any Republican.
Edited on Tue Apr-08-08 12:03 PM by Brotherjohn
The fact that they aren't leads me to believe this election will be taken as well.

Look at the quote from Bil Maher below. Now add to that the following Bush accomplishements: legalized torture, jailed political prisoners (including a governor), spied on millions of innocent citizens, LOST two wars, STILL failed to capture OBL, and racked up TWO recessions.

Now given all that, doesn't it scare you that the Democrat is still tied with the Republican?

5. McCain is still being allowed to fly under the radar. The Clinton/Obama fight takes precedence.
It'll sure be nice when that ends.

6. Don't worry. Once Obama starts debating McCain and people start realizing how Bush-like McCain
really IS, those numbers will change big time.

11. just out

Gallup Poll Daily tracking from April 5-7 shows Obama with an eight percentage point advantage, similar to the 9-point advantage he enjoyed in Monday's release. Both days rank among Obama's best to date, with his high-water mark a 10-point advantage in March 27-29 polling. (To view the complete trend since Jan. 3, 2008, click here.)

The real question is whether Obama can sustain an advantage, something he has been unable to do thus far. His best stretch was a four-day run of statistically significant leads spanning March 25-27 through March 28-30 polling, when Clinton came under scrutiny for exaggerating the danger she faced on a trip to Bosnia as first lady.

All three presidential candidates -- Clinton, Obama, and Republican John McCain -- will spend time today in senate hearings questioning Gen. David Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker about U.S. progress in the Iraq War. This will return the Iraq War issue to the forefront of the campaign -- an issue that offers a stark contrast between ardent war supporter McCain and the Democrats, who are critical of the war.

McAsshat? Obama is going to ruin this clown.
