Holy crap! Obama is down to a lead of 1.3 average over Hillary
in the presidential nomination race. He is sinking like a turd in a punch bowl...Two weeks ago he was up by almost 11 points. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/latestpolls/index.html I guess that is what is called retrograde momentum....Ha,ha,ha......:>)

5. Polls indicating he is now recovering from the Wright controversy
or non-issue. Both RAS and Gallup tracking polls are indicating that Obama is making gains. It takes a few days to catch up, but he's getting there. Also polls taken after Obama denounced Wright indicate that he is gaining ground again in Indiana and North Carolina.

7. Daily national tracking polls bounce around all over the place. There's no TREND of even.
but the recent trends (over the period of 1-2 weeks) have been breaking for an Obama National Lead.

The capacity to ferret out "the truth" via DAMN LIES (statistics) is my educational curse for completing advanced Statistical and Experimental Design courses. :shrug:

8. Hooray! Clinton's shit flinging is bringing everyone down!
She hasn't made herself look better in the process. Just made Obama look worse.

Pardon me if I hold off on the fireworks.

9. Wow! 6 months ago Clinton was up by 30 in the same polls!
I guess she came down like a controlled demolition.

11. So Obama is almost as unpopular as Hillary
Is this supposed to be a reason to back Hillary?

13. Obama cannot be trusted and we should not elect him. It would be a big mistake.
