California: Obama 50 McCain 43, Hillary does worse!

Edited on Thu Apr-17-08 10:56 AM by thewiseguy

This is a Rasmussen GE poll.

Hillary does worse than Obama.

Clinton 47 McCain 42

http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/election_20082/2008_presidential_election/california/election_2008_california_presidential_election

Hillary's favorability ratings are below 50! Even worse than McCain's!

Eventhough California was one of the states she carried, Obama still does better than her in the GE poll. That beats the big state winning argument.

10. The other day, McBush said he's very pro-life & eliminated the possibility

Edited on Thu Apr-17-08 11:22 AM by Hawaii Hiker

of selecting Tom Ridge (former governor of PA) as his running mate since Ridge is pro-choice...

What slimest of chance McBush might have had in California or New York, is thrown out the window with his pro-life stance....No pro-life candiate will win CA or NY...

Obama or Clinton will win CA & NY by large margins....

Oh, & someone tell Rassmussen California has 55 electoral votes...

11. On the pro life issue

Fifty-nine percent (59%) of the state's voters are pro-choice on the issue of abortion. Just 31% are pro-life.

By a 47% to 13% margin, California voters know that McCain is pro-life (40% are not sure).

By a 61% to 7% margin, voters know that Obama is pro-choice.

20. No

Every number is within the margin of error and you think this poll means something other than a tie.

16. Tell that to a certain Hillary fan who always posts these GE polls.

If you did that then maybe I would not consider you a hypocrite?

17. I have done so previously.

Early GE polls are meaningless regardless of who is ahead.

24. I don't buy this for a split second.

There's no way, none at all, that California is within 15 points come election time, come hell or high water.
